Illinois' stay-at-home order overturned by judge
-
A judge has overturned Gov. JB Pritzker's extended stay-at-home order in a bombshell ruling.
Downstate Republican State Representative Darren Bailey filed a lawsuit last week challenging the governor's authority to issue a stay-at-home order.
On Monday, a judge ruled in favor of the lawsuit, granting a temporary restraining order blocking the governor's extended stay-at-home order which was to take effect Friday and run through the end of May. The order had loosened restrictions on some businesses and allowed for some outdoor recreation to resume.
