From: Cook County Chancery Division

Chancery Division entered GAO 2020-6 today replacing prior order GAO 2020-04, continuing all general and mortgage foreclosure/mechanics lien matters to May 31^st.

Pending dates will be automatically rescheduled by the Clerk of the Circuit Court and the clerk’s office will send out notice of the new dates to all parties of record. The Order also encourages attorneys to re-notice the new date as a courtesy to all parties in the case.

All mortgage foreclosure cases, evictions, orders for possession, and judicial sales are stayed.

Only emergency matters will be heard. The Court’s order defines what an “emergency” means and outlines the procedures for scheduling.
