Caroline Glennon-Goodman seeks 10th Subcircuit vacancy

Career Assistant Public Defender Caroline Glennon-Goodman is planning a run for a 10th Subcircuit vacancy in the 2024 Democratic Primary. A campaign website has been established in furtherance of this effort. That's a link to the site in the preceding sentence; a link has also been added to the Sidebar on this site. There is also a campaign Facebook page.

Licensed in Illinois since 1996, according to ARDC, Glennon-Goodman's campaign bio states that her "passion for law and justice began in downstate Illinois, as the daughter of a judge and librarian." The campaign bio describes Glennon-Goodman as "a criminal defense attorney and homicide attorney working in juvenile and felony court."

Glennon-Goodman has been a resident of Glenview for more than 20 years, according to her campaign bio. She resides there with her husband, Dr. Paul Goodman, a podiatric foot and ankle surgeon with Illinois Bone and Joint Institute, and their two children. Glennon-Godman's campaign bio also notes that she has served as a court-appointed gaurdian to her special needs nephew for the past dozen years and is herself a breast cancer survivor.

A past president of the District 225 Glenbrook South Parent Association, according to her campaign bio, Glennon-Goodman has also participated in projects with Women Everywhere and served as a moot court judge for the North Suburban Bar Association and Empire Mock-Trial competitions for both high school and law students.

Glennon-Goodman has not run for judge previously, but she was a Short List finalist in the 2021 associate judge selection process.

What a coincidence. There is another candidate with a similar last name, but she is running in a different subcircuit.

What subcircuit would that be?
