Cammacho v. City of Joliet

Plaintiffs were cited for violating a city ordinance that imposed weight limits on vehicles traveling on designated roadways. The citations were adjudicated through an administrative process and the hearing officer imposed fines against the plaintiffs, which were then affirmed by the trial court. Plaintiffs appealed, arguing that the city lacked jurisdiction to administratively adjudicate the violations. The appellate court reversed, finding that the vehicle ordinance could not be adjudicated administratively because the ordinance restricted the movement of vehicles. (DAUGHERITY and HETTEL, concurring)
