California Gov. Gavin Newsom and other state officials are being sued by a Los Angeles restaurant owner after she shared a now-viral video of television production tents and tables set up close to the outdoor dining area that she was forced to close due to the CCP virus pandemic.

The federal lawsuit, filed Sunday, seeks to overturn California’s ban on outdoor dining and lists Newsom, Attorney General Xavier Becerra and Acting State Public Health Officer Erica S. Pan, M.D. as defendants.
