Tracked discrepancy record

4 citation, quotation, or authority issues are recorded in the source dataset.

  1. False Quotes: Case Law | The brief attributed the quotation “The IHRA is a remedial statute and must be liberally construed to protect claimants’ rights” to Thakkar. The court could not find the quotation in the case and noted that the citation was incorrect and lacked a page citation.
  2. Misrepresented: Case Law | The brief cited Roxana Community School District for the proposition that a party cannot be deprived of a statutory right because an agency failed to perform a mandatory ministerial act. The court explained that Roxana concerned a school board’s authority to appeal a pollution-control decision and did not discuss that proposition.
  3. False Quotes: Case Law | The brief attributed to Madigan the proposition that an agency’s failure to act cannot prejudice a party who complied with its obligations, including an apparent quotation marked with “emphasis added.” The court found that the purported quotation did not appear in the case and that Madigan addressed the filing date of an electronically filed document with the Illinois Commerce Commission.
  4. Misrepresented: Case Law | The brief cited Castaneda for the proposition that exhaustion is satisfied when a complainant has done what the statute requires and all remaining steps are the agency’s responsibility. The court found that Castaneda instead addressed whether a party must seek review before the en banc Human Rights Commission after losing before a three-member panel.
