The owners of the embattled New Jersey Atilis Gym busted down the boarded-up front door of their New Jersey business Saturday morning, again defying Gov. Phil Murphy’s orders to remain closed during the coronavirus pandemic.

Ian Smith, 33, and Frank Trumbetti, 51, are engaged in a monthslong legal fight with the state of New Jersey to keep their Bellmawr-based gym open during the COVID-19 pandemic and must now contend with the threat of their business license getting pulled.

On Aug. 4, Smith and Trumbetti will face a hearing before the mayor and the council of the Borough of Bellmawr regarding the consideration of whether to revoke the gym's business license.

Smith and Trumbetti have also been charged with 4th-degree contempt, obstruction, and violation of a disaster and control act. They face a $1,000 fine and up to six months in jail.

"After Atilis refused to comply with multiple criminal citations and Superior Court orders, including a contempt-of-court order issued Friday, today, law enforcement entered the premises to ensure closure and to abate the public health risks," said a spokesperson for New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal. "As the attorney general previously said, the state wishes it had not come to this, but the gym refused to comply even with a contempt order."
