S&R News Room

Actions of Note

The Chicago Daily Law Bulletin took notice of the Complaint filed by S&R Partner Alan Nicgorski on behalf of BlueStar Energy Services Inc. in the publication's "Court Briefs" newsletter. The newsletter provides summaries to attorneys of newsworthy or otherwise notable complaints filed in Cook County or the Northern District of Illinois.

The Complaint claims that the Illinois Commerce Commission violated provisions of the Illinois Freedom of Information Act by denying BlueStar's request for the release of certain public records regarding plans and discussions concerning future electricity rates. BlueStar is seeking a judicial decision that denying the FOIA request for these public records is a violation of the statute, an order requiring the release of the records for inspection and copying, and an award of attorneys' fees and costs.

If interested in other details of this or other aspects of S&R's Energy Law and FOIA practice, please contact Alan Nicgorski at
