Supreme Court refuses to issue ruling on EO issue

Posted in:

* Probably no surprise. The Supremes obviously did not want the Rauner-era cases reaching it…


New: The Illinois Supreme Court has denied Illinois AG @KwameRaoul’s request to decide whether @GovPritzker has the authority to enforce his executive orders. More to come from @semansur and @CDLB. pic.twitter.com/eeOPdCJDfW

The governor commented on it today…

It’s an unusual circumstance that the Supreme Court would in fact take a case directly from circuit court and not let it go through the normal process. But I think it was the right thing to do for the AG to seek the Supreme Court’s intervention. But the Supreme Court is not saying they’re not going to rule on this ever. They’re just saying that they don’t want to skip over the appellate court, I understand.

  1. Once the TRO was dissolved, there wasn’t a judgment to review and the court doesn’t like to issue advisory opinions. No surprise they won’t take up the case at this stage.

  2. I anxiously await the mouthbreather reaction that “Pritzker lost!”

    I’ve unfortunately encountered people on social media who think his order is unconstitutional because Bailey “won.”

  3. =Once the TRO was dissolved, there wasn’t a judgment to review and the court doesn’t like to issue advisory opinions.=

    Which may be exactly why the TRO was dissolved. Bailey might not want a Supreme Court ruling.

    You can’t milk it for all it is worth, when the IL Supreme Court quickly slaughters your cow.

  5. Already being touted as a victory on the Facebook down south……

  6. From one of Bailey’s pleadings in the
    Supreme Court.

    “Following submission of Defendant’s notice of appeal, Plaintiff agreed to entry of an Order vacating the TRO, and on May 1, 2020, the Fifth District Appellate Court granted that request, and the TRO is dissolved, vacated and of no further force or effect.”

  7. –Already being touted as a victory on the Facebook down south……–

    And those newly minted epidemiologists and appellate procedure experts would be wrong, but facts don’t seem to matter to them.

  8. ===a victory on the Facebook down south===

    President Trump also apparently approves. Bailey got the coveted POTUS Tweet.

    Mission accomplished.

  9. Beg pardon, Governor:

    Illinois Supreme Court Rule 302(b) expressly provides for direct appeals of cases from a trial court to the Supreme Court if a the public interest demands expeditious adjudication.

    In all likelihood, the dissolution of the TRO is the reason that the AG’s request was denied.
