Judge Gest Sets Rule On Motions And Demburrers
Judge Gest requires motions and demurrers to be entered to be heard. A Rock Island County Bar committee prepared a bill to create a branch court to ease circuit court workload. If passed, the bill would authorize a branch court presided by a circuit judge on nonjury matters, with jury trials remaining in main court. The plan aims to reduce delays and save about Sou a month in county costs.
