@TonyPaul1984 any word on why the Priority Waste branding is gone from the Comerica home plate seats?

@EWess92 Score another win for Paul Clement. Worth every penny.

Wow. The Seventh Circuit previews that it will be be calling for a new trial in two of the biggest corruption cases out of Illinois this century. Tea leaves probably indicate nothing good for upholding former Speaker Madigan's conviction

@FrankCalabrese “With for jury,” I believe.

Can a Cook County DUI attorney help me out here? What does "WFJ" mean? (This is from the docket for Commissioner Samantha Steele's DUI case.)

@BenBradleyTV @Libs_OfChicago Sir, the coverage in this city of the “exonerations” the past few years has been horrifically one-sided.

@Libs_OfChicago With respect, the media always reports on both sides of what happens in court. When was the last time you saw a story that laid out the prosecution's case but then said "we won't tell you what the defense said because it may upset or offend you?"

We learned a lot about the Venezuelan charged w/murdering Loyola student: * Shot in Colombia in 2018, suffered brain damage * Limp gave him away * Bussed from Texas to Chicago in 2023 * His attorney didn't ask for release fearing ICE would deport him wgntv.com/news/wgn-inves…

@stoolpresidente @tBushGaming Congratulations, you just waived the attorney-client privilege

You absolutely can’t make this up. Just got this text from our corporate lawyer. The most predictable thing ever from the morons @tBushGaming That’s what I get for paying for these fools to go to London.

@SeidelContent @Suntimes Thank you!

@john_doe1876 @Suntimes Here you go: cst.brightspotcdn.com/70/0f/0d9f739b…

Cook County’s top prosecutor says a bid to name a special prosecutor to investigate Operation Midway Blitz agents amounts to a “frivolous” and “heavy handed” attempt to usurp her authority — and could come at a cost. NEW from @Suntimes: chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/20…

@CWBChicago Has any other mayor used presidential-level precautions upon arrival to city hall like the current mayor does? Shut down sidewalks, etc.

BTW, those cones are usually used to block parking for the mayor's SUV. This is some Grade A rat placement.

@EWess92 Seems like the correct legal outcome, but hard to understand why they wouldn’t just print him another schedule.

Read the thorough opinion here: media.ca7.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/Opinio…

A Muslim inmate wishes to pray five specific times/day. The prison gave him a schedule which was a few minutes off and refused to buy him a different schedule for him. He can buy his own schedule, but does not want to. Chief Judge Brennan says no First Amendment/RLUIPA violation

@CWBChicago She is the worst. Reported yesterday on the $750k verdict against the City without noting the plaintiff asked for $40 million.

The study did not attempt to determine whether the uses of force were compliant with CPD policies. (Paragraph 30)

@FrankCalabrese Care to speculate on why he used the trust? Different limits/rules? What makes Sup Ct and Toni race different than other donations?

Governor JB Pritzker has now donated $250,000 to Cook County President Toni Preckwinkle's reelection. He donated $100k last month. He is donating from his trust fund, which is rare. He has only previously donated to Supreme Court candidates from his trust fund.

@EWess92 The only bigger sin would have been to use acronyms. I cringe whenever I hear acronyms used in front of certain CA7 panels knowing the forthcoming response.

Easy for court watchers. Attached is a transcript to an oral argument at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. I immediately knew who was asking questions. Do you? (I'll post the panel in a bit . . .)

@kcjohnson9 any thoughts on the en banc CA7 argument today in the Ceephus case?
