Plaintiff, while a pretrial detainee at Adult Detention Facility, requested numerous records from Facility through Illinois FOIA. Facility did not comply with Plaintiff's requests, and Plaintiff filed 3 separate suits against County Sheriff, now consolidated on appeal. Court erred in dismissing complaint seeking production of records relating to Facility's sale of stamps, to show which detainees had purchased stamps in a certain time period (after the time that USPS lowered price of stamps from 49 cents to 47 cents).(HOLDRIDGE and LYTTON, concurring.)
