Supreme Court of Appeals granted a motion for direct appeal in challenge to vaccine law

Kanawha County, WV (WOAY) – The Supreme Court of Appeals granted a motion for direct appeal in a high-profile challenge to West Virginia’s vaccine law.

The Supreme Court already paused Raleigh County Circuit Judge Michael Froble’s order that unvaccinated children be allowed to enroll in public school with a religious exemption to vaccines.

In today’s order, the Supreme Court will bypass the intermediate court of appeals and hear the case directly.

The West Virginia State School Board says it is enforcing its vaccine policy while the Supreme Court considers the case.
