The majority of courts appear to agree that the Tort Immunity Act applies to retaliatory discharge claims to the extent a plaintiff seeks monetary damages. See Williams v. Office of the Chief Judge of Cook County, Ill., No. 13 C 1116, 2015 WL 2448411, at *13 (N.D. Ill. May 21, 2015) (collecting cases), aff'd, 839 F.3d 617. But see Zelman v. Hinsdale Twp. High Sch. Dist. 86, No. 10 C 00154, 2010 WL 4684039, at *2 (N.D. Ill. Nov. 12, 2010) (finding that Tort Immunity Act's one-year statute of limitations did not apply to retaliatory discharge claim because "the Tort Immunity Act immunizes government entities from liability for torts committed by employees and retaliatory discharge claims are the result of wrongdoing by an employer"). Zelman relied on a broad reading of § 2-109 of the Tort Immunity Act, which provides blanket immunity to a public entity for its employee's own torts and which Illinois courts have found not to apply to retaliatory discharge claims.
