COURT NEWS
this change that will include the procedures necessary to obtain Default Judgments and Alias Summonses. We expect this change to continue through the end of the year or longer depending on the circumstances at that time, as well as future Supreme Court Orders. The procedures will be distributed during the week of October 12th, 2020 and I plan to address the Bar Association during the October 20th, 2020 meeting to discuss this and answer any related questions. This change will also free up time for eviction cases that are expected to increase. Prairie State Legal Services has procedures in place to offer legal assistance during the morning dockets that you may wish to review if you represent landlords or tenants. You may also wish to contact Prairie State Legal Services for more information on rental assistance that may be available locally. The Illinois eviction moratorium is set to expire October 19, 2020, but the Federal CDC Eviction Rules last longer. We are still analyzing the CDC Rules as to how that will be handled locally in terms of how it operates and what is required for it to apply. All other dockets are running in some fashion and the Judges continue to incorporate new and imaginative methods into their dockets as we adjust to this “new normal”. We hope that you are finding the new processes exciting and enjoyable despite the circumstances under which they arose. Should you have any questions or concerns on court operations, please contact Trial Court Administrator William Scanlon at (309) 888-5266. Stay safe and take care of yourself. Best regards. Chief Judge Mark A. Fellheimer TUESDAY - october 20

MCBA Breakfast with the Bar
Remember to have “Breakfast with the Bar” every Friday morning between 8:00 am and 9:00 am. It’s a great way to meet and talk with your fellow attorneys in an informal setting. Stay for 10 minutes and have a cup of coffee or stay for an hour and have a full breakfast before court. Grab an associate, partner or friend and come. See you Friday!
