United States Seventh Circuit
Brandt v. Winnetka, 09-3709
In an action under 42 U.S.C. section 1983 seeking a declaratory judgment that a village ordinance violated the First Amendment by "chilling" plaintiff's willingness to invite political officials and candidates to the village, dismissal of the action is affirmed where the district court did not abuse its discretion in thinking that plaintiff's challenge was too abstract to warrant constitutional adjudication.
