The Illinois Supreme Court entered an order yesterday appointing Daniel E. Maloney to a 3rd Subcircuit vacancy created by the retirement of Judge Denise K. Filan.
The appointment is effective February 8, 2019 and terminates December 7.
After 16 years as an Assistant Cook County State's Attorney, Maloney became Division Counsel for the United States Department of Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration in 2017.
A graduate of the Valparaiso University School of Law, Maloney holds an undergraduate degree from the University of Notre Dame. He has been licensed to practice law in Illinois since 2001.
Maybe the next line should read: Most important qualification is that he is son of a former State Senator.
ReplyDeleteThe next line is that he is smart, hard working and an excellent lawyer. Most importantly he will make an excellent judge.
ReplyDeleteOh My God..... I love this game......My turn........ The next line should read - Yeah, but there are smarter, harder working, and more excellent lawyers who tried numerous times to get appointed and came up empty; but they were not the daughters or sons of a former State Senator. Someone else please jump in. The next line is yours......
