Arizona Supreme Court
No. 

MICHAEL BEAVER, et al. 

Petitioners,



.

as the Governor of the umaummsm
State of Arizona,r .









DOUG DUCEY, in his capacity AUG 25 2020




Respondent. 



 



The Court en banc has considered the briefs and authorities
in this special action challenging Executive Order 20?043 and
related orders issued by Governor Ducey concerning the spread
and containment of the novel coronavirus.

Upon consideration, the Court declines to accept
jurisdiction pursuant to Rule Ariz. R. P. Spec. Act. The
Court finds that Petitioners did not provide a compelling reason
as to why this matter could not be initiated in a lower court.
Additionally, lacking a factual record, the Court is unable to
consider the arguments that the orders violated the Privilege
and Immunities Clause of the Arizona Constitution and that
Petitioners were deprived of due process.

IT IS ORDERED declining jurisdiction without prejudice for

Petitioners to initiate the matter in a lower court.
