From: Cook County Courts

All Cook County Courts closed today 8/10, except bond courts

Due to restricted access to Chicago’s downtown area resulting from public safety activities and limits on public transportation, Circuit Court of Cook County Chief Judge Timothy Evans on Monday ordered the closing of all courts, with the exception of bond courts.

Bond courts at the Leighton Criminal Court House, the Domestic Violence Courthouse at 555 W. Harrison Street, the Juvenile Justice Division and all six Municipal Districts will remain open.

Except for bond court, all cases scheduled for Monday will be continued for 30 days and parties will be notified by the clerk of new court dates.
