In an Order entered Friday, the Illinois Supreme Court appointed Cook County Circuit Court Judge Judith C. Rice to the Hoffman vacancy on the Illinois Appellate Court.
|
This is the vacancy to which Judge Rice will be officially elected to tomorrow (she is unopposed). Judge Leroy K. Martin, Jr. had been serving in this vacancy pursuant to a 2025 Supreme Court order, but his recent retirement cleared the way for Judge Rice to get a head start on her new responsibilities. (Judge Martin resigned from the bench to accept appointment as Cook County Trial Court Administrator.)
Judge Rice's appointment is effective Friday, November 6 and terminates on December 7, when she must make way for... herself.
