Ill. Supreme Court won’t hear term limits appeal

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — The Illinois Supreme Court decided Thursday not to immediately consider whether voters should get a chance to limit terms for state legislators.
Without comment, the court took a pass on an appeal of a circuit court’s June ruling that barred the question from appearing on election ballots, along with a second proposal that would have asked voters if they wanted an independent way of drawing political boundaries.
But Mark Campbell, executive director of Term Limits and Reform, said proponents would file Friday for a hearing with a state appellate court.
