Lawsuit filed over Virginia governor's ban

GoA and Virginia Civil Defense League as plaintiffs, governor and chief of capitol police as defendants. Yes, as predicted in comments, the governor's power is limited to emergency "shelters," and he's claim the entire 44 acre, wide-open, capitol grounds are somehow an emergency shelter.
So now they wait. I read that a VA circuit court judge is elected for an eight-year term by a majority vote of both houses of the General Assembly. Since they have passed all these recent bills, that is not something that boosts my confidence in the independence of the judges on this issue. I hope I'm surprised.
