Yes, But The Law Is In A State Of Change Regardless of the old saying that "you can't fight city hall", you might be able to sue it. Since statehood, the law of Illinois had been that counties, municipalities, school districts and most other units of local government were immune, or exempt, from responsibility for their wrongful acts or those of their employees. To citizens, says the Illinois State Bar association, this pro­ tective shield against liability had great importance. It meant, for example, that if you were injured by a school bus you could not successfully bring a civil suit against the school dis­ trict for damages causedbyone of its employees. The suit to recover damages could be brought against the bus driver as a private indi­ vidual, who might be nearly penniless and uninsured, but his employer -- the school dis­ trict -- was beyond the reach of the injured citizen. Many lawyers believed that this was a flaw in the law and that local governments should be accountable for their wrong­ doings just as anyone else. In 1959 the Illinois Supreme Court ruled that school dis­ tricts were liable for their wrongful acts or those of their employees while engaged in school work. This new princi­ ple in the law soon was extend­ ed by the courts to apply to all segments of local government. In following years, the Legis­ lature enacted a number of laws to limit the effect of the court ruling on such units of government as park districts, townships and others. The law became a patchwork of special liabilities, exceptions and rules. The Legislature in 1965, en­ acted a carefully-drawn act which applied to all branches of local government and creat­ ed uniform rules of immunity and liability. The law now provides, gener­ ally speaking, that all local gov­ ernment units are liable for negligent acts to much the same extent as private citizens and corporations, but with some im­ portant exceptions. The excep­ tions are listed in the statute, together with descriptions of circumstances under which public employees are not liable for injuries resulting from what they do or fail to do. A public employee, for ex­ ample, is not liable for en­ forcing or failing to enforce a law unless he is guilty of "will­ ful and wanton negligence" -- which is a reckless indiffer­ ence to the injury his action or inaction is likely to cause to another. The ISBA point out that per­ sons wishing to sue a unit of local government or one of its employees should consult an at­ torney without delay because of special requirements in­ cluded in the law. While most "damage cases" can be filed within twf years of the injury, a different rule applies when a suit is brought against a pub­ lic body. The law requires that a spe­ cial notice of intent to take le­ gal action against a local gov­ ernment unit or one of its employees must be personally served within six months of the injury.
