United States v. Pramaggiore and McClain, Nos. 25-2349 and 25-2350

Court Filing · U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit · June 15, 2026

In June 2026 the Seventh Circuit vacated the conspiracy and books-and-records convictions of former ComEd CEO Anne Pramaggiore and lobbyist Michael McClain after the Snyder ruling, denied acquittal, and allowed a retrial. It is not an acquittal.

In that way, the invalid objects infected the conspiracy convictions, so we are compelled to vacate them.
