You may recall that the Illinois Campaign for Political Reform was unjustly accused this week of pimping for the trial lawyers. Today, the group filed formal complaints about two groups on each side of last year’s contentious Supreme Court race.

Complaints were filed Thursday with the Illinois State Board of Elections against two organizations on opposite sides of the nation’s most expensive contest for a state supreme court seat.

The complaints allege both organizations violated state requirements for public disclosure of campaign contributions on behalf of candidates in the 2004 election for the 5th District Illinois Supreme Court seat. The original sources of at least $830,000 in campaign contributions have been hidden from the public. The complaints were filed against the Illinois Coalition for Jobs, Growth and Prosperity (Coalition) and the Justice For All Foundation (JFA). […]

The business-backed Coalition and the labor-backed JFA collected and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars but did not file statements of organization or any of the required public reports identifying the sources of those funds and how those funds were spent, according to the complaints.

Somebody could be in trouble.
