What was the US Supreme Court decision in Wabash v Illinois?
Wabash, St. Louis & Pacific Railway Company v. Illinois, 118 U.S. 557 (1886) resulted from a dispute between the railway company and the state of Illinois arising from shipping charges for hauling cargo from various cities in Illinois to cities in other states.
Illinois law prohibited charging higher freight for moving goods shorter distances than for longer distances. Specifically at issue was the fact Wabash charged more to transport goods from Gilman, Illinois to New York than from Peoria, Illinois, to New York, even though the distance from Gilman to New York was 86 miles shorter.
The ruling overturned Munn v. Illinios (1877) which rejected the railroads declaration of the Granger Laws unconstitutional. Wabash vs. Illinios (1886) modified this position by prohibiting states from regulating railroad rates.
Congress passed the Interstate Commerce Act (1887), reaffirming the federal government's power to investigate and oversee railroad activities, and then established a new agency (The interstate Commerce Commission - ICC) to do just that.
Case Citation:
Wabash, St. Louis & Pacific Railway Company v. Illinois, 118 U.S. 557 (1886)

Illinois State Senators are elected for either a two or a four year term of office with each of the 59 seats staggered to provide a sense of continuity within that body. Thus Senator 'A' might be elected for a two year term for his district, then a four year term followed by a second four year term. That would be a seat with a 2-4-4 rotation. Senator 'B' might be elected for a four year term followed by a second two year term and on the next election he would run for his third term of four years. That rotation would be 4-2-4. Senator 'C' would be in the third rotation of 4-4-2. There are no term limits in Illinois.

You live in Iowa how soon can you file for chapter 13 after filing for chapter 7?
Bankruptcy is a FEDERAL law, in a FEDERAL court...the State you filed in makes little difference. Didn't you notice that on your obvious last time through...all the documents say something like "US Federal Bankruptcy Court for the District of XYZ"? No? What a surprise...maybe if you don't see how it beenfits you right then, you don't think its important.
Under the bankruptcy laws effective on October 17, 2005, Chapter 7 cannot be filed unless the debtor was discharged from the previous Chapter 7 or bankruptcy more than eight years ago.
The debtor cannot file a Chapter 13 unless: (1) the debtor received a discharge under Chapter 7, 11 or 12 more than four years ago; or (2) the debtor received a discharge under Chapter 13 more than two years ago.
That's only a very small part of an answer to your question...the real one being: Until you substantially change your ways....likely just about everything in your spending habits and probably even how and what you feel you deserve from others and yourself....you'll just continue being a bankrupt... Hey...wake up...what your doing...what your taking from others...it obviously ain't working for you and certainly ain't making you rich. Change. NOW.
