Title

  • Coram v. State of Illinois

Description

  • In 2009, Jerry W. Coram was denied a firearm owners identification (FOID) card by the Illinois Department of State Police. In 2010, he sought judicial review of this ruling in the circuit court of Adams County in an effort to obtain one. Judge Mark Schuering gave individual scrutiny to Corams circumstances, pursuant to the standards of review set forth in the FOID Card Act, and entered an order directing issuance of the card. He concluded that Coram, despite his earlier misdemeanor conviction for domestic violence, would not be likely to act in a manner dangerous to public safety.
