The resignation of Justice Shelly Harris from the Illinois Appellate Court becomes effective today, July 6.
Circuit Court Judge Raymond W. Mitchell won the Democratic Party's nomination for the Harris vacancy last week and faces no Republican opponent in November.
Absent a meteor strike or something else totally unexpected, therefore, Mitchell will therefore be sworn in on the first Monday in December as Justice Harris's successor.
But he won't have to wait that long to take up Justice Harris's duties: Last Friday, the Illinois Supreme Court entered an Order, effctive today, appointing Mitchell to the Harris vacancy. (Here's the press release announcing the promotion.)

the first time I've been a day late... or, for that matter, a dollar short.
Hard...
