Ammon Bundy and Diego Rodriguez hearing set for Tuesday

There is still a lawsuit St. Luke’s filed against Ammon Bundy and Diego Rodriguez.

The case centers around Child Protective Services’ action to remove an infant from his parents’ care after officials deemed him malnourished, which elicited a strong response from Bundy, Rodriguez and their supporters.

A few days after Bundy and some of his allies showed up at the Meridian hospital where the baby was first taken, a protest at St. Luke’s in Boise forced the hospital to go on lockdown for nearly two hours and divert incoming patients to other area hospitals.

The Idaho Press reports, the lawsuit is moving forward, and both Bundy and Rodriguez have paid or been ordered to pay fees in recent weeks. Tomorrow, on Dec. 20th, there will be a hearing on a protective order against Bundy and Rodriguez. There are also new court filings to add punitive damages.
