The judge temporarily stopped the court system from going forward with their vaccine mandate until at least next Friday, when CSEA thinks there will be a second hearing where the judge will hear additional arguments from both parties and decide whether or not the restraining order will turn into a preliminary injunction.

ALBANY, NY (WRGB) — On Friday, a State Supreme Court granted the Civil Service Employees Association, or CSEA, the union representing about 5,800 Unified Court System workers throughout the state, a temporary restraining order against the enactment of a vaccine mandate for non-judicial Court system workers that was set to go in effect on Monday, September 27th.

The judge temporarily stopped the court system from going forward with their vaccine mandate until at least next Friday, when CSEA thinks there will be a second hearing where the judge will hear additional arguments from both parties and decide whether or not the restraining order will turn into a preliminary injunction.

If the court decides to convert the restraining order into an injunction, the union thinks it will last for 60 days.
