A California church is going to appeal a decision in which a court ruled that it had to pay over $1.2 million in fines for violating COVID-19 lockdown orders.

Calvary Chapel San Jose is facing $1,228,700 in fines for refusing to follow Santa Clara County’s mask-wearing requirements from November 2020 and June 2021.

In response to an appeals court decisionrendered on April 15 that upheld an earlier ruling against the church, Calvary Chapel has decided to continue its legal fight against the fines.
