Al Personal Injury Attorney Ritchie

The legal fight is on. I have to be frank with you. I didn’t expect this outcry over mandatory masks.

I have seen laws come, and I have seen them go. So, don’t be surprised to see the law changed.  However, here is where we stand as of the beginning of July 2020.

You MUST wear a mask in Mobile during July if you are out in public and are over 10 years old. There are some exceptions but very few.

Let me try to give a little legal insight to what is going on. There is an adage among lawyers that says, “If you have the facts on your side, pound the facts ; if you have the law on your side, pound the law ; if you have neither the facts nor the law, pound the table .” I have done all three. The supporters and opponents of this issue are doing the same.

Here are some major legal issues on mandating masks

Add to this a few conspiracy theories and threats of potential violence and you have the government/legal system in action.

So you know, I support wearing a mask. Not just because it is the law, but because my Momma told me to do good and help others. The mask is not to protect me … but is to protect others – family, friends, neighbors, and fellow citizens.

Also, I’m told I look better in a mask. I’m just saying.
