“Many of you have asked when is Durty Nellie’s last official day open? It is now official. October 4th will be our last day. Until then we have some great live music and good times to enjoy.

Stop in and reminisce and say goodbye to Jimmy, the family, the staff and all of our friends. We are grateful for all the love and support we have had from our patrons over the years. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. And as the Irish say ‘Slainte’”

𝐔.𝐒. 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐭 𝐉𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐧 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐧, nominated by President Obama in 2010 to the Northern District of Illinois, dismissed the lawsuit brought by a student identified only as F.F. and her father, James Ellard Fisher, against 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐲 𝐕𝐢𝐞𝐰 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐭 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐭 𝟑𝟔𝟓𝐔 in suburban Chicago.*

The family argued the district violated Title IX and the Constitution’s equal protection clause by letting biological male students into girls-only bathrooms and locker rooms. Coleman disagreed, ruling that Illinois law lets schools allow transgender students to use the facilities of their choice, and that federal civil rights law only requires facilities be “𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦” across the sexes, not sex-separated.
