Illinois Supreme Court

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Bristow

Plaintiffs-appellants appeal directly to this court from a final order and declaratory judgment of the circuit court of Cook County in favor of the defendants, entered upon their motion for judgment on the pleadings, which held certain amendments to a zoning ordinance valid and denied plaintiffs’ prayer for an injunction restraining the construction and use of a building for a youth center.
