Board closes complaints over perceived conflicts of Illinois Supreme Court justices – Center Square

Last year, Gov. JB Pritzker gave $1 million each to two then-Supreme Court Justice candidates, Elizabeth Rochford and Mary O’Brien. They won their seats on the high court and later refused to recuse themselves in a challenge of Illinois’ gun ban, legislation Pritzker signed. In March, Kenneth Mayle, an electrical engineer living in Chicago, filed a complaint with the Judicial Inquiry Board.
