Illinois Supreme Court

LMP Services, Inc. v. City of Chicago

January 29, 20212019 IL 123123

Summary

The Illinois Supreme Court affirmed summary judgment for Chicago, holding that the 200-foot restriction on food-truck parking satisfies rational-basis review and that the GPS requirement is not an unreasonable search. The court concluded that the parking restriction rationally advances neighborhood stability and economic growth, while the GPS requirement either does not constitute a search or, alternatively, is reasonable under the closely regulated-businesses framework. The opinion contains no separate opinions.
