The Illinois Supreme Court Gives Policyholders A Break From The Two Front War, John S. Vishneski Iii
Northern Illinois University Law Review
For many years, Illinois policyholders faced the prospect of a two-front war whenever they submitted a liability insurance claim. Insurers who did not believe they owed coverage could "honor" their duty to defend by filing a lawsuit against their insureds seeking a declaration of non-coverage, thereby forcing their policyholders to defend against the underlying claim and against their own insurer. The Illinois Supreme Court, in the Midwest Sporting Goods case, has brought the two-front war era to an end. As explained in this article, insurers in doubt over coverage must now at least pay their policyholders' defense costs in the …

Northern Illinois University Law Review
This Comment examines the prosecution of pedophiles in Illinois after the United States Supreme Court's decision in Crawford v. Washington.

The ability to use a statutorily mandated hearsay exception has been in question and is directly linked to the definition of the term "testimonial. " The author provides a test to determine whether the out of court statements by pedophilia victims are "testimonial" to make this tool for protecting the victims still viable.

This comment calls for a change to that jurisprudence and invites the judiciary to allow a self-excluded gambler to receive redress from the casino that …

Criminal Discovery And The Costs Of Reproduction: A Burden Taxpayers Should Not Have To Bear, Gary C. Pinter
Northern Illinois University Law Review
This comment asserts that a prosecutor's office may charge privately-retained defense counsel for the costs the prosecutor's office may incur as a result of reproducing material that may be requested via discovery. Although the evolution of discovery has resulted in rules or statutes that differ with respect to a particular jurisdiction's scope of discovery or its adopted approach, the overwhelming majority of discovery provisions regarding the prosecutor's duty of disclosure are very similar. The duty essentially requires that the prosecutor make the particular material available and permit its inspection and reproduction. Consequently, to forbid a prosecutor from seeking reimbursement for …

Medical Negligence Litigation Is Not The Problem, Kenneth C. Chessick, Matthew D. Robinson
Medical Negligence Litigation Is Not The Problem, Kenneth C. Chessick, Matthew D. Robinson
Northern Illinois University Law Review
The medical malpractice insurance "crisis" results not from out-of-control juries or overly-litigious plaintiffs and their attorneys, but rather is simply the result of epidemic levels of negligence among physicians. The myth that the liability system is to blame for high premiums facing doctors creates opportunities for insurance companies to restrict plaintiffs' access to courtrooms and to limit the amount of compensation they may receive after proving negligence. This article examines and debunks the leading myths regarding the so-called "crisis" and presents several suggestions that may improve the healthcare provided to patients nationwide.
