Crystal Lake attorney David Gervais’ appointment to the Circuit Court was made known in December and he took took office in mid-February.
To remain in office, the mild-mannered jurist must win election in November of 2020.
Democrats have made it known that they will run women against him and the other two appointed judges, Mark Gerhardt and Justin Hansen.
The crowd was a good one, populated by a number of attorneys, of course.
The Judge made a short speech in which he promised to
- be on time
- listen to what people have to say
- treat those before him with respect
- rule properly
The food was straight out of the Chesapeake Bay…literally.
Gervais’ Godson, a master chef Tony Marcello brought blue crabs with him from Lauren, Maryland.
He prepared a crab sauce for dipping, crab stuffed mushrooms and crab sliders for dinner.
For desert, he made bananas foster.
Among the candidates making the rounds was Woodstock’s Caralina Lauf, who is running for the GOP nomination to run against Lauren Underwood.
Others include State’s Attorney Patrick Kenneally.
It looked like a Pro-Life pow-wow was occurreing in one section of the toom.
Joe Gottemoller, Fred Wickham and Mark Daniel were conversing with Catalina Lauf.
Dave Gervais is a political hack!
Just because he was an appointment by the establishment does not mean he is qualified for the job.
When appointments are made they are for political favors and take the people’s choice away.
David Gervais is a very good man with a long history of service and civility.
AND he is certainly not a political hack!I wonder how “Stand4truth” knows David.
Jeez – Most of the ultra conservatives here haven’t liked a judge since Samuel in the old testament.
I’m guessing their discussing a lawsuit against K Mart, to accept Radio Shack Rewards Points.
Judge Gervais will be a great jurist as he is knowledgeable of the law and possess commonsense.
What is “commonsense”? Is that somehow related to “secondamendment”? Meeeeeeoooooooowwwwwwwwwwww…
I don’t know anything about Gervais.
But most of the judges in McHenry —especially the older ones are political hacks.
The Fake News ran a crazy tribute to Judge Prather recently.
But it never mentioned her tons of reversals by higher courts.
What she did in the Gauger case was a sin.
Patrick Kenneally doesn’t miss an opportunity for a free meal and drinks while shuffling around in his loafers.
In my opinion he should be Director of the FBI*.
* Fat…Bald…Ignorant
Whjat’s all that white stuff on Lauf’s nose? And why is Germaine scowling at her in that photo? Weird.
White stuff on Lauf’s nose.
Yeah, it’s there but what is it?
Gervaise does look askance over her appearance tho.
Jump to the 4th foto from the top.
That “large” lady in the green hooded muumuu stold all the crab sliders left in that vessel.
Made me mad.
I told her to put at least half back.
She said she was judge’s wife and ‘didn’t have to put anything back.
I asked her who she was. She said “Guess!”
I asked for some of my money back.
Willibrandt rained on Mary Nader’s parade when the backtracked from retiring and ran for circuit judge..
She was black guarding Demetri for all she was worth.
Until Willbrandt pulled the rug out from under her.
She also ate so many Easter peeps, she ‘couldn’t make it’ to work in 2017.
That’s one reason why Germaine says he’ll be on time.
So many loafers in the McHenry Co. courthouse, starting with the poor judges.
Not Germaine — Gervaise
Somehow I missed this big event, But Joe Gottemoller was there to stink it up, so I’m kinda glad I missed it.
Look at all the brown nosers.
Yikes!
