Hana v. City of Chicago

SECOND DIVISION
May 14, 2002


No. 1-00-2181


ALBERT C. HANNA,

Plaintiff-Appellant,

v.

THE CITY OF CHICAGO, a Municipal
Corporation,

Defendant-Appellee.
Appeal from the
Circuit Court of
Cook County.

No. 99 CH 8311


Honorable
Lester D. Foreman,
Judge Presiding.

_____________________________

Quoting City of Aurora v. Burns, 319 Ill. 84, 92-93, 149 N.E. 784 (1925), the court further stated:

"'The authority of the States to enact such laws as they deem reasonably necessary to promote the public health, morals, safety and general welfare comprehends a wide range of judgment and discretion in determining the matters which are of sufficiently general importance to be subjected to State regulation and administration. *** The police power, however, has constitutional limits, and any measure enacted or adopted in its exercise, to be sustained, must bear some reasonable relation to the purposes for which the power may be exercised.'" Beverly Bank, 144 Ill. 2d at 226, quoting City of Aurora, 319 Ill. at 92-93.

In Cosmopolitan National Bank, the supreme court expressly characterized the plaintiffs' action as "fundamentally one to have the entire amendatory ordinance *** declared void." Cosmopolitan National Bank, 27 Ill. 2d at 582. In essence, the parties challenging the legislation in Duggan and Cosmopolitan National Bank sought invalidation of the entire ordinances at issue, just as Hanna is attempting to do here. In both of those cases, the supreme court applied the substantial relationship test. Our supreme court has stated that " very owner has a right to use his property in his own way and for his own purposes, subject only to the restraint necessary to secure the common welfare. This is both a liberty and a property right." Northern Trust Co. v. City of Chicago, 4 Ill. 2d 432, 437, 123 N.E.2d 330 (1954), citing Village of La Grange v. Leitch, 377 Ill. 99, 35 N.E.2d 346 (1941). Furthermore, "it is a well-established principle that one who buys land has a right to rely upon the classification which existed at the time the purchase was made, and upon the rule of law that the classification will not be changed unless the change is required for the public good." Cosmopolitan National Bank, 27 Ill. 2d at 584.

Re: The City isn't going to have an "emergency" Council meeting for a fare increase.

Ya, OK, but did you at least do your little part to help change all that and email all 50 council members so that they know the good old days are over and new age is dawning?

Hana v. City of Chicago

SECOND DIVISION
May 14, 2002


No. 1-00-2181


ALBERT C. HANNA,

Plaintiff-Appellant,

v.

THE CITY OF CHICAGO, a Municipal
Corporation,

Defendant-Appellee.
Appeal from the
Circuit Court of
Cook County.

No. 99 CH 8311


Honorable
Lester D. Foreman,
Judge Presiding.

_____________________________

Quoting City of Aurora v. Burns, 319 Ill. 84, 92-93, 149 N.E. 784 (1925), the court further stated:

"'The authority of the States to enact such laws as they deem reasonably necessary to promote the public health, morals, safety and general welfare comprehends a wide range of judgment and discretion in determining the matters which are of sufficiently general importance to be subjected to State regulation and administration. *** The police power, however, has constitutional limits, and any measure enacted or adopted in its exercise, to be sustained, must bear some reasonable relation to the purposes for which the power may be exercised.'" Beverly Bank, 144 Ill. 2d at 226, quoting City of Aurora, 319 Ill. at 92-93.

In Cosmopolitan National Bank, the supreme court expressly characterized the plaintiffs' action as "fundamentally one to have the entire amendatory ordinance *** declared void." Cosmopolitan National Bank, 27 Ill. 2d at 582. In essence, the parties challenging the legislation in Duggan and Cosmopolitan National Bank sought invalidation of the entire ordinances at issue, just as Hanna is attempting to do here. In both of those cases, the supreme court applied the substantial relationship test. Our supreme court has stated that " very owner has a right to use his property in his own way and for his own purposes, subject only to the restraint necessary to secure the common welfare. This is both a liberty and a property right." Northern Trust Co. v. City of Chicago, 4 Ill. 2d 432, 437, 123 N.E.2d 330 (1954), citing Village of La Grange v. Leitch, 377 Ill. 99, 35 N.E.2d 346 (1941). Furthermore, "it is a well-established principle that one who buys land has a right to rely upon the classification which existed at the time the purchase was made, and upon the rule of law that the classification will not be changed unless the change is required for the public good." Cosmopolitan National Bank, 27 Ill. 2d at 584.

Re: Re: Re: The City isn't going to have an "emergency" Council meeting for a fare increase.

Did you send those emails?

Replying to:

No, Yes, and I didn't smoke or drink with them. I am not an anarchist, anymore anyhow.

-Mike Foulks

Replying to:

Are you referring to your march with anarchists down Mag Mile?

Do you have any more of whatever you and your anarchist co-conspirators (is that even possible?) were smoking or drinking?

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

Replying to:

The City isn't going to have an "emergency" Council meeting for a fare increase.

The "Bored" Members of the CPTDA are a bunch of misguided, overzealous drama queens. All two of them.

How many cabdrivers are co-plaintiffs in your doomed lawsuit, Wolf? About the same number of the "one-man" march you keep trying to ridicule?

-Mike Foulks

Replying to:

IS THE EMERGENCY CITY COUNCIL MEETING FOR THE METER INCREASE IN SESSION YET?

Not yet, but it will come sooner or later...

If you can put your name on the Plaintiff's list, you will certainly feel the power yourself...

It is your right to demand a "just and reasonable" rate, and it is FREE.

Can we have 10%, 15%, 20% or may be 50% drivers who really cares?
