IL: Lack of Notice of Cross Appeal Does Not Deprive Illinois First District Appellate Of Jurisdiction A condominium association sued the condo developer for an accounting of expenses incurred before turnover to the board. The trial court granted summary judgment to the developer and denied the association’s cross-motion for summary judgment. The association appealed from the summary judgment given to the developer, but did not file a Notice of Appeal from the denial of its own summary judgment motion. Nonetheless, the association asked the appellate court to reverse the developer’s summary judgment and to order that judgment be entered for the association. 11:28:31 AM
