Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: IL4434
Rating:Not Rated
Comments:
This is a judge I have had exposure to in the last two years re adult guardianship matters. If she knows the law she doesn't reflect it nor abide by it. She makes her own rules and disregards Illinois law. She handles all guardianship cases along with what appears to me as an enterprise [Redacted by Ed.] including guardian ad litem and court appointed counsel and all are making money with their scam while likely breaking the law and causing untold injuries to who knows who.
[Redacted by Ed.] so this is no surprise.
If you have a guardianship case do your best to avoid Foley [Redacted by Ed.]

i believe she is sexiest!!! and unprofessional. was told she is the hanging judge before trial. the guy was correct. told me to have an alcohol evaluation, when i showed the other judge that i had completed the evaluation he said that was not needed! Also she lied about some other things. Told me when classes were finished my record would be clean. so i never worried about appeling the case. badbad judge
