Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Illinois

Can my landlord show the house to a potential buyer or renter while I still have a year left on my lease? She lied to me and told me it was a plumber coming to look at the house with her. When he got here my Father in Law asked him what union he was with and he was all "oh I'm not, I'm just more kinda like a handyman." She has also moved to try and evict us but we have done nothing wrong. We have all of our sucks in a row and are a family of 5 with another on the way. According to the neighbors, she did this to the last two renters were here as well. She has also come into the house twice (that we know of) while we weren't home and no notice was given even though our lease states she has to give 24 hour notice. We have cameras up now. It's very annoying to live with the anxiety of all of this. We go to court on 8/15/16.

Depends on what the lease says. Buyers usually yes; renters possibly.
