CHICAGO (AP) A federal judge on Tuesday tossed out a lawsuit filed against the city of Chicago by the owner of a metal-shredding facility that wants to operate in the city.
Southside Recycling, formerly known as General Iron, wanted the federal court to force Chicago to issue a permit that would allow the company to open a facility in a Southeast Side neighborhood.
“The city’s failure to issue the permit to Southside Recycling has caused significant and potentially permanent damage to Southside Recycling’s business,” the company said in the lawsuit filed last month which sought more than $100 million in damages.
