BELLMAWR, NJ — The owners of a South Jersey gym, who became infamous for defying New Jersey's COVID-19 orders, must pay a six-figure fine for the conduct, a state appeals court ruled Wednesday.

Ian Smith and Frank Trumbetti, who owned Atilis Gym in Bellmawr, appealed the $123,982 that stemmed from violating the state's shutdown orders in 2020. But the three-judge panel ruled against Atilis Gym, finding the business's arguments had "no substantive merit," according to a court opinion issued Wednesday.
