On Sunday, June 21, the Seventh Circuit issued an order in Libertarian Party of Illinois v Cadigan, 20-1961. It denies the request of Illinois officials to stay the ballot access relief that was won in U.S. District Court on April 23. Here is the 5-page order. The order does not identify which judges handles the matter.
It is very rare for a federal court to issue an order on Sunday.
It is refreshing to see the courts on our side, on the side of free and fair democratic elections, for once here in Illinois. I hope this becomes a trend.
INDIVIDUALS are nominated / elected.
How much judicial legislation in ALL the 2020 election LAW cases ???
I would still like to see attorneys fees awarded to the plaintiffs for the state making such a ridiculous appeal. However, it’s still nice to see a win
whew!
All sorts of deadline election dates coming soon —
thus even Sunday court action.
Will there be an appeal to the supreme court?
