court notes
prioritize the individual dockets as we look to a return to more in-person hearings for those dockets that are not conducive to a remote format. There will be more information when decisions are made in that regard, but no one throughout the State is in any position to select a date now when to begin transitioning back to what we would consider (or remember) as “normal” operations. We appreciate the need to return to a fully functioning court system, but we must adhere to recommended health guidelines. For those that handle eviction cases, you should familiarize yourself with Illinois Supreme Court Order M.R. 30370 entered December 22, 2020 [Order M.R. 30370 LINK] before filing your complaint to avoid cases being dismissed pursuant to that Order for non-compliance. You should also familiarize yourself with Illinois Executive Order 2020-72 (and related EO) concerning timing issues regarding the financial declaration and commencing the action by serving the notice to terminate tenancy. Lastly, we will be welcoming Carla Barnes to the Bench on February 11, 2020 at 3 p.m. Due to the pandemic, her investiture proceeding will live-streamed by video link and the courtroom will be limited to Carla’s friends and family. Will has already sent the link through Mary Sellmyer’s 2-2-2021 email. Overflow seating will be available in the Jury Assembly Room where video screens will display the ceremony. Should you have any questions or concerns on court operations, please contact Trial Court Administrator William Scanlon at (309) 888-5266. Stay safe and healthy. Best regards. Chief Judge Mark A. Fellheimer thank you for your 2021 membership!
