And while officials with the court have said repeatedly the situation is improving - particularly when compared to 2020-2021 amid the height of the pandemic - accurate case processing statistics for the Cook County Circuit Court remain scarce, making it difficult for the public to know for sure how much the situation may have changed in recent years and just how backlogged Illinois' largest court system may actually remain.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
Crappy, bass-ackward system made by patronage people at the direction of patronage people.
