LOS ANGELES—An Irvine attorney filed court papers on July 30 alleging his family was denied boarding a return flight from Mexico to Los Angeles in the spring unless their 2-year-old child received the coronavirus vaccination, then denied boarding even after the child got the shot and tested negative.

Marc Y. Lazo’s still-unofficial Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit alleges intentional infliction of emotional distress, false imprisonment, and violation of the state Business and Professions Code. Lazo seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.
