Today was a day of victories large and small for the Law Firm of David G. Sigale, P.C. In the morning, the District Court for the Southern District of Illinois entered a judgment in favor of the Firm’s clients in N.Doe v. East St. Louis Housing Authority, which was a challenge on behalf of public housing residents being prohibited from possessing firearms in their residence for self-defense for fear of being evicted. Thanks to this ruling, those residents, including the Plaintiff who had to file anonymously due to violent physical threats against her from a former romantic interest, will no longer suffer discrimination in exercising their Second Amendment rights due to being on public assistance. Constitutional rights should not depend on income level, and this ruling solidifies that principle. Thanks are due to Second Amendment Foundation for its support and participation, and the Illinois State Rifle Association, which was also a co-Plaintiff in the case on behalf of its members.
Then, in the afternoon, David G. Sigale received word from his client, R.C., that his Illinois concealed carry application appeal before the Licensing Review Board was successful and that his license, wrongfully held in limbo for months, has been approved.
Sigale says, “In both cases, macro and micro, there is a real person whose rights have been affected, and the Firm has been honored to represent them in their efforts.”
