Summary

Following the Court's substantive judgment on the constitutionality of the anti-mask law, this decision addressed consequential matters including costs and the form of relief. The Court dealt with questions arising from its earlier finding that parts of the Prohibition on Face Covering Regulation were disproportionate. Orders were made regarding the striking down of specific provisions.
