Overview: Chief legal counsel's decision affirming state human rights department's dismissal of claimant's sex discrimination charges was affirmed, as it was supported by substantial evidence pursuant to 775 Ill. Comp. Stat. Ann. 5/7A-102(D)(2), but dismissal of retaliation claim was reversed, as substantial evidence of hostile work environment was shown.

View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Trial court properly confirmed an industrial commission's grant of workers' compensation benefits to a truck driver, as the chairman of the industrial commission did not violate 820 Ill. Comp. Stat. Ann. 305/13 (2002) by participating in the commission's decision, as that statute granted the chairman authority to determine cases.

APPELLATE COURT OF ILLINOIS, FIRST DISTRICT, THIRD DIVISION, October 25, 2006, Decided
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Trial court did not err in granting summary judgment for wife because, when husband died, the property passed to the wife as a joint tenant through rights of survivorship. Husband's creditor did not file a judgment pursuant to 735 Ill. Comp. Stat. Ann. 5/12-101 until after the husband ceased to have any interest in the property due to his death.

|||||
Overview: The harmless error analysis applied to circuit court's order summarily dismissing a petition filed under 735 Ill. Comp. Stat. 5/2-1401. No harmful error resulted from summary dismissal because defendant's claims were meritless. The petition was time-barred. Blakely and Apprendi did not apply retroactively to defendant's collateral review petition.
