In the wake of Governor Northam’s recent “Stay at Home” order for the State of Virginia, Jean Humbrecht, a Manassas-based attorney hosted a Facebook Live event on Wednesday discussing the legal ramifications of the order.

Humbrecht explained that not only Virginia but Maryland and Washington, D.C. also have stay at home orders. She explained that in Virginia, if a citizen violates the order, it is a class one misdemeanor and they can face up to 12 months in jail and a fine up to $2,500.
