People Ex Rel. Barrett v. Thillens

This is a direct appeal from a final decree in equity of the circuit court of Cook County, which enjoined appellant, Melvin Thillens, from operating a fleet of armored trucks engaged in delivering money for payroll checks, on the ground that appellant violated the provisions of the Community Currency Exchange Act. (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1947, chap. 16½, pars. 31-56.) It is claimed that the decree deprived the appellant of property without due process of law, and, also, that if the Community Currency Exchange Act is construed to cover the business in which appellant is engaged it is unconstitutional.
