(Chicago, IL) — Attorneys for former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan are asking a federal judge to exclude certain evidence from his upcoming racketeering trial. In a motion filed yesterday, Madigan’s lawyers requested that details about controversial gaming legislation, sexual harassment allegations, as well as other topics be removed. They claim the evidence is irrelevant and could be prejudicial to the case. Madigan is set to go on trial in October.
