Restaurant Lawsuit Update

The attorney for Geneva restaurant FoxFire challenging the governor’s COVID-19 orders says the Pritzker administration has turned over 2,000 documents ahead of a possible trial in Sangamon County. Attorney Greg Earl, with Myers, Earl and Nelson P.C., said documents he’s reviewed so far show the administration doesn’t know thresholds for COVID-19 tests, and whether there could be false positives. Earl said the documents also don’t reflect information shared publicly online. A status hearing is set for later this month.
