Independent Candidate Files Brief in Illinois Case Against 5% of the Last Vote Cast Petition Requirement for U.S. House

On July 20, the plaintiff filed this brief in U.S. District Court, asking for summary judgement, in Gill v Scholz, c.d., 3:16cv-3221. This is the case that challenges the Illinois law that requires independent candidates for U.S. House to file signatures equal to 5% of the last vote cast.

This case was filed in 2016 and is still in U.S. District Court. If both sides ask for summary judgment, but the judge denies both sides, then there will be a trial.
