Defendants Kwame Raoul, Attorney General of the State of Illinois, and Brendan F. Kelly, Director of the Illinois State Police (“State Defendants”), hereby appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit from the Court’s order and final judgment dated November 8, 2024, in this case (Doc. 55), as well as three related cases (Barnett, et al. v. Raoul, et al., 3:23-cv209 Doc. 259; Federal Firearms Licensees of Illinois, et al. v. Pritzker, et al., 3:23-cv-215 Doc. 86; Langley, et al. v. Kelly, et al., 3:23-cv-192 Doc. 46). [More]
Of course they did. Tyrants don’t cede power unless there’s a credible “or else” attached to the demand, and besides, it’s not their money.
