Partner Michael Conway and Senior Counsel Lauren Loew contributed an article to the November 2015 issue of the Illinois Bar Journal, “Cross-Motions for Summary Judgment: Be Careful What You Concede.” The article discussed how plaintiffs and defendants often file competing cross-motions for summary judgment. And how in Illinois, unlike in federal court, those motions may be taken as a concession that no issue of material fact exists.
