Raleigh County Judge Michael Froble’s Wednesday ruling may not have as wide-ranging of an impact as first thought. Froble granted a permanent injunction for Raleigh County plaintiffs seeking a religious exemption to school vaccination requirements and created a certified class of families with religious vaccine exemptions statewide. He ruled the Equal Protection for Religion Act trumped the compulsory vaccine law The state school board – which had refused to follow an executive order from the governor to grant religious exemptions – then suspended its policy of requiring county school boards to follow the compulsory vaccination law. But Corey Palumbo, the lawyer for Raleigh County Schools, said this doesn’t mean that every county board has to grant religious exemptions.
