Illinois Supreme Court

Miller v. Department of Agriculture

March 21, 20242024 IL 128508

Summary

The Illinois Supreme Court held that the Grain Code’s automatic‑pricing provision in §10‑15(e) is unambiguous and required the grain to be priced on February 26, 2016, more than 160 days before the dealer’s failure, thus barring the plaintiff’s claim for compensation; it also affirmed the Director’s authority to reconsider the ALJ’s decision.
