Wisconsin's Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled against the state's stay-at-home order, saying the state's health department exceeded its authority. Officials in Dane County, home to state capital Madison, issued a local order minutes after the ruling came down, imposing a mandate identical to the now-invalidated state stay-at-home order.
City health officials in Milwaukee said a stay-at-home order they enacted in late March remains in effect and does not have an end date.
At the hearing, an attorney representing Evers's administration, pointed to a state law that gives the state health department the authority "to do whatever is necessary to combat a novel, deadly, communicable disease like the one we're facing today".
"Republicans who brought the lawsuit had asked the justices to side with them but to stay their ruling for about a week so legislators and Evers could work out a new plan to deal with the pandemic".
Almost seven of 10 Wisconsin residents back Evers' "safer at home" order, based on a Marquette University Law School poll released Tuesday, though that support was down from 86% in March.
"45 minutes after the bars open in Wisconsin.", Nick's Bar in Platteville, Wisconsin wrote on its Twitter account, with a picture of the bar filled with customers.
Evers said there's no avenue to appeal the decision.
The Tavern League of Wisconsin, a trade organization with about 5,000 members that advocates for alcoholic beverage retailers in the state, announced the state Supreme Court's decision on Facebook, writing "according to the ruling you can OPEN IMMEDIATELY!"

The Midwestern state's high court sided with lawmakers from Trump's Republican Party, who had challenged an extension of the quarantine imposed by Democratic Governor Tony Evers' administration.
Americans across the country have staged anti-lockdown demonstrations and President Donald Trump has pressed for rapid steps to rekindle the devastated United States economy before his tough reelection battle in November.
The GOP has been working to weaken Evers' powers since he ousted incumbent Republican Gov. Scott Walker in 2018.
But, the President wasn't the only Trump celebrating the Supreme Court's verdict.
