Illinois Supreme Court

Arlington Heights Police Pension Fund v. Pritzker

January 19, 2024238 N.E.3d 1099

Summary

The Illinois Supreme Court affirmed summary judgment for the defendants, holding that Public Act 101-610 does not violate either the pension protection clause or the takings clause of the Illinois Constitution. The court reasoned that voting rights and investment control are not protected benefits under the pension clause and that the Act does not constitute a taking of private property.
