Euler Posted August 7, 2020 at 11:01 PM Share Posted August 7, 2020 at 11:01 PM ... According to court records, Pritzker is facing what is known as an "Indirect Civil Contempt Motion" in connection with a lawsuit filed by State Rep. Darren Bailey in Clay County. ... Press Secretary Jordan Abudayyeh said the issuance of the order without allowing the governor an opportunity to respond to the motion "is procedurally improper" and violated "elementary principles of fairness." ... The motion filed by Bailey accuses the governor of ignoring prior orders by the court, and says he should be held in contempt for continuing to issue executive orders in connection to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The motion seeks to have Pritzker held in contempt of court, and to be imprisoned in the Clay County Jail "until he purges himself by rescinding the above-mentioned executive orders." ... So the headline should really be "Darren Bailey asks judge to find Pritzker in contempt." By ordering a governor to appear, instead of to file a brief or some other response, the judge may have overplayed his hand this time. An error in procedure seems like the kind of thing a governor could order an AG to quash in the state supreme court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2A4Cook Posted August 8, 2020 at 12:06 AM Share Posted August 8, 2020 at 12:06 AM Well, the judge lives here and is surely AWARE of the violations, but needed the plaintiff to file a motion. On a Rule to Show Cause, it is not improper to order the defendant to appear before the court. Oh, I forgot: lard bucket is better than the rest of us.

Tip Posted August 8, 2020 at 12:44 AM Share Posted August 8, 2020 at 12:44 AM Lard buckets excuse that “other courts” don’t “think” its correct is irrelevant. Ain’t no other court overturned his ruling - until that’s done the ruling stands and he’s in contempt. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ragsbo Posted August 8, 2020 at 03:05 PM Share Posted August 8, 2020 at 03:05 PM Will be interesting to see what legal shenanigans he tries to get out of this. I DO NOT expect him to show up in court, that would be so beneath him! Send the sheriff to drag him there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would the Illinois “supreme” court intervene on any peasants case like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blade13 Posted August 12, 2020 at 11:59 PM Share Posted August 12, 2020 at 11:59 PM https://www.southernillinoisnow.com/2020/08/12/state-supreme-court-consolidates-lawsuits-on-pritzker-orders/ The Illinois Supreme Court has declined to consider a downstate legal battle over Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s coronavirus-related orders and moved the case to Sangamon County. It’ll be consolidated with a similar case. The move comes as the first-term Democrat was expected in a Clay County courtroom this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
