Mervis Industries sued the city of Danville over rezoned property for the Golden Nugget Danville casino, which is now open.
Mervis Industires had asked for a declaratory judgment that the Danville City Council’s zoning approval is invalid pursuant a LaSalle National Bank of Chicago vs. County of Cook case.
In May 2022, the case was transferred to Coles County due to local circuit court judges believing they were too close to the city and the Mervis family.
