City Of Gary v. Jeff Nicholson, et al.
── City Of Gary v. Jeff Nicholson, et al. ──
Case No.: 22S-MI-00252
Court: Indiana Supreme Court
Date: July 21, 2022
Author: Justice Geoffrey Slaughter
County of Origin: Lake
Category: Civil
Decision: Remanded
The City of Gary is a so-called “welcoming city”—with a local
ordinance designed to protect the rights of immigrants. The plaintiffs
below, four Indiana residents, argue Gary is a “sanctuary city” with its
ordinance. The plaintiffs challenge Gary’s ordinance as violating state law
and seek to prevent the city from enforcing it. Yet they allege no injury;
they argue instead that neither statutory nor public standing requires an
injury.
