2020Though “the Illinois Constitution may provide greater protection to free speech than does its federal counterpart” (City of Chicago v. Pooh Bah Enterprises, Inc., 224 Ill. 2d 390, 446 (2006)), plaintiff is content to rely solely on case law interpreting the federal free- speech clause and does not ask that we find greater protection under the Illinois clause in this particular context. ¶ 80 In his opening brief, plaintiff relies principally on Pickering v. Board of Education of Township High School District 205, 391 U.S. 563 (1968), and Bond v. Floyd, 385 U.S. 116 (1966). ¶ 81 In Pickering, a

2020“The language of relevancy and materiality utilized by our supreme court in Lewerenz and Rothe indicates that the Illinois rule which prohibits impeachment with defendant’s postarrest silence is based on evidentiary principles, rather than constitutional law. [Citation.] Therefore, the rule is unaltered by federal - 16 - constitutional cases which found that the use of a defendant’s postarrest, pre-Miranda silence does not violate due process.” Quinonez, 2011 IL App (1st) 092333, ¶ 26 .

2018This position has been adopted by the [tentative draft of the Second Restatement of Conflict of Laws], which provides in part that 'whether one member of a family is immune from tort liability to another member of the family is determined by the local law of the state of their domicile.' An increasing number of courts have also held this to be the better reasoned view. [Citations.] We also adopt this view and hold that in this case the Illinois immunity statute is determinative of the question of whether plaintiff may maintain this action against her deceased husband's estate." Id. at 59-60 ,
