February 6, 2006 - Illinois Cook County Chief Judge Timothy Evans

This is posted about Chief Judge Timothy Evans on the website of Citizens for Legal Responsibility. Their website address is: http://www.clr.org.

Citizens has been informed by attorneys that Judge Timothy C. Evans was an alderman in the City of Chicago and a member of Harold Washington's party. After the death of Harold Washington, Timothy Evans was appointed a judge to remove him from Chicago politics. These attorneys have informed Citizens that there has always been a question relative to Judge Evans' knowledge of the law, even before he became a judge.

Based on the information provided us by our members, we can confirm what attorneys have informed us of Judge Timothy C. Evans. We can confirm that Judge Evans does not respect the law nor does he comply with the law. As a judge, Judge Evans evidences a deliberate and willful disdain for the law and contempt for the decisions of the Justices of the Illinois Supreme Court. If a judge has no respect for the law, why should the general public? He has set an example, but a bad example.

A report critical of Judge Timothy Evans will be published, containing charges that he has willfully been involved in a scheme of extortion and fraud, has deliberately connived with, aided and abetted, an unlawful scheme of judge-shopping, has connived with, aided and abetted a person prohibited from practicing law in the State of Illinois in the practice of law, has acted without lawful authority, has engaged in actions in defrauding the State of Illinois, and has acted in violation of the Code of Judicial Conduct.
