  1. It’s great that she agreed to do this.

    Is she taking a risk with her pension? Does the LIG gig pay less than her judicial post, that it might cut her retirement income? Or is that separate?

    It’s hard to get qualified people into some of these posts. It’s good that they worked it out.

  2. Rich, this is an excellent selection. Carol is from my home community and she is a person of great integrity. She has served as States Attorney, Menard County’s resident Circuit Judge and an Appellate Justice. Judge Pope was a no-nonsense judge. She is a straight shooter who is well regarded in the legal and judicial communities. Good pick.
