In all seriousness my understanding is that by being charged, not even a trial yet, your FOID is void. Is that not the case?

If it's a felony arrest, federal law prohibits you from purchasing and shipping firearms and ammunition, but you are not prohibited from possessing what you already possess.

However, depending on the nature of the charges (particularly domestic violence) and other parties involved in the case, the court could order your FOID to be suspended/revoked. (Hello, red flag.)

Otherwise, that is not the case.

This is IL, you honestly think they won’t take your guns?

Taken off advisement. This matter previously came on for hearing on Plaintiffs' Motion to Reconsider this court's Order dismissing the Complaint. The court has considered the Pleadings, the arguments,
and the applicable authority. The Illinois Supreme Court held in Caulkins v Pritzker, et. al. that the exemptions for public safety officials contained in P.A. 102-1116, also known as the Protect Illinois Communities Act, do not violate the equal protection clause of the Illinois Constitution. The Court found that members of the public, as a matter of law, are not similar in all relevant respects to the exempt public safety officials. This court is bound by that holding. Plaintiffs do not dispute that the allegations in the Complaint filed in Caulkins v Pritzker, et. al. are identical to the allegations contained in the Complaint filed herein. Caulkins v Pritzker clearly controls this case. For the reasons stated, and for the reasons stated in the Docket Order of 8/15/23, Plaintiffs' Motion to Reconsider is denied. Clerk to provide copies of this Docket
Order to attorneys of record.

Caulkins did this on purpose to sabotage this case. I would rather see him replaced by a Dem so at least we knew where we stood. The Dems in this state know how to get their agenda done. They are not stupid, just evil. 

 

With this states judges, I can't see how we can get any further with this case. We can hope, but I won't waste much emotion any further with our case. I just hope something will make it to the supreme Court and we'll see how that does.

The IL State Supreme Court was never going to give Caulkins or Devore a win.

 

Devore blaming other just masks the fact that he had a weak case and had little chance of success if things went to the  State Supreme Court .

 

He and Caulkins were both grandstanding for press and attention 

 

Devore was slightly better at it .

 

But Devore did get paid so at least he was successful bin that aspect .

 

The only real hope we have is the Federal cases

Devore and plaintiffs didn't have a chance to get screwed by the Illinois supreme court, Caulkins made sure of it. Caulkins campaign fund got paid by his group. I don't believe Caulkins was grandstanding either. I really think he did it on purpose. Devores case was going after how they pass laws in Illinois and Caulkins is apart of that. Illinois Republicans aren't much different than Illinois Democrats. 

Devore grandstanding for press and attention? No, Devore believes in what he's doing. 

But I do agree that the federal case is our best chance. But I still don't trust the US Supreme Court. I wouldn't bet my life on it.

Jmho

Everyone seems to forget the F A C T that Devore filed well before Caulkins. DEVORE got the appeal and the first TRO, and Caulkins C  O P I E D Devoves case, basically plagiarized it. It was the states attorneys that talked Caulkins into giving up a BUNCH of rules and going to the IL Supreme court. The court pretty much said, Hey DUMMY you presented NO FACTS to support your argument, you loose BIGLEY!

 

There are so many IGNORANT CARNIVAL BARKERS out there that don't have the slightest shred of a clue as to what occurred, yet they want to bash Devore and praise Caulkins like a bunch of MDA democrats.
