Attorney General Madigan is currently representing the entire Illinois Supreme Court in the U.S District Court, Northern District of Illinois case #07cv3289 and she also has pending litigation before the Illinois Supreme Court as well wherein she's a respondent and is representing the state before the court. </p> http://chicagoist.com/2007/10/05/lisa_madigan_av.php#comment-1213286 http://chicagoist.com/2007/10/05/lisa_madigan_av.php#comment-1213286 Comments Fri, 05 Oct 2007 09:36:05 -0600 <p>I'm confused. Are you disputing the claim of non-jurisdiction from the AG's office? Surely there is more than one person in the office and the AG can both warn of fraud and prosecute criminals and carry on a host of other duties. It's pretty sloppy, intellectually speaking, to say that a political institution is incapable of carrying on multiple agendas at once. It's a specialty of Fox News... can't Chicagoist do better?</p>
