A total of more than 12 recreational cottages owned by Norwegians have been registered near the Norwegian border in Strömstad, Sweden. Now the cottage owners are waiting for a decision on the quarantine dispute. This case, as VG writes, may end in the Supreme Court.
After almost a year and a half of restrictions, they hope to be able to spend their vacation at a cottage.

- If the Court of Appeal opposes the assessment of the district court, it is in fact so important for the rule of law in Norway that it will be a question to the Supreme Court, believes Heidi Furustøl.

Refusal to be released from the entry quarantine after returning to Norway after spending time in recreational homes

Furustøl is a spokesman for the Norsk Torpare association and part of a group of holiday home owners in Sweden. They now face a lawsuit against the state. They were refused exemption from entry quarantine upon their return to Norway after spending time in the cottages located in a neighboring country. About a thousand owners who have cottages in Sweden are behind this case.

It will be necessary to raise money for further legal action

The cottage owners won in the Oslo County Court in February. The state appealed the sentence and the appeal case began in May. Heidi Furustøl says that if there is a need for further appeal, it will be necessary to raise money for further legal action. Furustøl and describes the situation as a fight between David and Goliath.

The group behind the lawsuit believes that the cottage issue is about democracy

Cottage owners believe that the state's decision to require quarantine for overnight stays in a cottage is invalid and contrary to both human rights and the EEA Agreement.
