Western Illinois Service Coordination v. Ill. Dept, of Human Services

Ct. of Appeals dismissed instant appeal of Dist. Ct. order denying plaintiffs' request for preliminary injunction, which sought to prevent defendant from awarding state contracts for provision of case management services for individuals with developmental disabilities. Counsel for plaintiffs conceded at oral argument that it would be too disruptive for individuals receiving such services to reinstate original contracts held by plaintiffs at issue in preliminary injunction request, and thus only remedy was to remand case back to Dist. Ct. for consideration of merits of plaintiffs' underlying complaint.
