United States Seventh Circuit
Leavell v. Illinois Dep't of Natural Res., 09-2590
In plaintiff's action against the Illinois Department of Resources (Department) and several oil companies asserting a due process claim and seeking injunctive relief to prevent the Department from plugging oil wells owned by various members of plaintiff's family and from transferring control over wells to defendant oil companies, district court's dismissal of plaintiff's due process claim with prejudice is affirmed as plaintiff's failure to avail herself of available state remedies is fatal to her federal due process claim.
