Read the language of Circuit Court Judge candidate Mary McClellan filed November 27, 2019:
EMERGENCY MOTION TO STRIKE REQUESTS FOR ADMISSION AND MOTION FOR RULE 137 SANCTIONS
NOW COMES your plaintiffs, Mary McClellan and Edward Gil, by and through Mary E. McClellan and as for their motion, aforesaid states the following:
- On November 26, 2019, there was a Motion to Compel against Cal Skinner to answer a subpoena that was properly notice to court and all parties for 9:00 am in Room 204.
- On November 26, 2019 at 8:30a.m., Robert Hanlon filed a motion to substitute judge and his appearance for Cal Skinner Jr and McHenry County Blog LLC.
- On November 26, 2019, Robert Hanlon agreed to enter and continue the motion to compel Cal Skinner Jr. and McHenry County Blog generally based upon the request for substitution of Judge.
- On November 26, 2019 at 2:53 pm Robert Hanlon emailed on Plaintiff a Request to Admit certain facts unrelated to the case at bar.
- Robert Hanlon has filed these Requests to Admit to harass and intimidate the Plaintiff in this matter.
- Robert Hanlon has not filed the answer to the subpoena in this matter rather he seeks to harass the Plaintiff in areas not relevant to any discovery that is relevant to this case at bar.
- Said requests were in large part absurd and not based on any issue. The requests are based upon intimidation and harassment and an attempt to utilize the court for personal attacks on the character of the plaintiff.
- Factors the court must consider in determining whether to award Rule 137 sanctions for frivolous pleadings include the following: (1) the degree of bad faith by the opposing party; (2) whether an award of fees could deter others from acting under similar circumstances; and (3) the relative merits of the parties’ positions. Penn v. Gerig, App.
4 Dist.2002, 268 Ill.Dec. 339, 334 Ill.App.3d 345, 778 N.E.2d 325 - Pursuant to rule 137, sanctions for the cost of bringing this motion, for reviewing the pleading involved, and rule 216 as well as presenting this motion should be awarded in
favor of the plaintiff and against, Cal Skinner Jr. and Robert Hanlon in an amount of $1,800.00. This is based on Six hours of work at $300.00 per hour, the rate MARY MCCLELLAN customarily earns for legal matters. - This motion is immediately necessary due to the nature of a request to admit facts and the time constraints on responding.
WHEREFORE, your plaintiff, prays this honorable court, strike the amended requests to admit and grant rule 137 sanctions as set forth above.
The motion was heard Tuesday.
What does this mean in layman’s terms??
Cal, is Hanlon charging you $400 a hour like Alg twh Rd dist is?
Mary, get a life, get a grip!
The people of McHenry County should be paying attention.
It has become very apparent, that Mary McClellan should not be a Judge!
Dalia is right!
Nob, that’s atty/client privilege.
I notice you must be jealous of Atty Hanlon, or do you dislike him because he is getting paid for legal work at Alg Township.
Legal work that never would’ve been necessary if it were not for the Miller klan and all their misdeeds and wild spending!
The fact that that’s okay with you-could make one think that you were on the receiving end of some of that township spending!
Cecile, good point!
Nob, also supports the Local 150 boys.
She hadls to make a living somehow.
An alleged attorney who cannot file an appropriate petition should become a Judge – why?
Am I missing something?
Mary McClellan’s antics are like opening a box of chocolates.
You never know what you’re going to get.
Mary should really find another profession.
Hey, the Local 150 boys are hiring washed up Politicians.
And, they like candidates with experience digging holes.
YEP!
One right after the other.

Or just tie yourself to a tree and squeal like a pig, Ed will come.
😉
And, I hate dirty Judges and dirty corrupt people trying to become a Judge.
Anna May and Robert Miller Are not paying back all they stole why???
Merry Christmas to all….
$$$$ stay tuned
Scary Mary has gone out of her flippin’ mind.
As a pro se co-plaintiff, she’s not entitled to any atty’s fees.
I’d like to see Hanlon’s requests to admit.
Her reaction above proves she’s hiding a lot.
I;d also like to see the motion to dismiss filed by the County.
Did Hanlon ask her to admit the genuineness of the federal courts’ findings of her misconduct?
Or her other misconduct at prior employers?

Wow if McClennan gets some cash because “anonymous posters” on this blog insulted her I’m calling my lawyers!
I’d have a better case than she does!
cha ching!.
Joe, if you do go that route, don’t use Hanlon, his success rate as of late hasn’t been very good.
Over $400k fighting 150 and so far all the dudes Gasser fired with Hanlon’s approval as his lawyer are getting hired back with back pay and benefits.
It appears Hanlon has wasted over a $mill in taxpayers $$$$$!!!!
Sad part is so many on this blog think wasting tax $$$$$ by Hanlon/Gasser is just fine and dandy.
East Main Cary – Maybe that’s because Hanlon is involved.
He’s already cost us more than what we would recoup anyway.
Hanlon’s defense was even funnier than the original complaint. What a can of worms she has opened up.
The only Emergency is her still faking she’s a lawyer.
How’d she slip past the ARDC with those multiple federal judges’ stinging published rebukes about her multiple lies and deliberate deceptions?
Why can’t a complaint be filed now given her KNOWN past professional derelictions?
— just attach the various federal judges’ trashings of her unfit character in separate exhibits!
She wasn’t called a common ‘whore’
She was called a “union 150 whore.”
Isn’t truth a defense any more?
Whalen? We all know the truth is never paramount these days. The Hanlon defense WAS hilarious, though.
MM’s conduct at the hearing was so pathetic you almost felt sorry for her.
In a crowded court room, not a single lawyer spoke to her.
Whatever someone may think about Hanlon, he effectively showed what a poor lawyer McClellan is.
Her complaint was stricken for being inadequate.
She insisted the defendant’s were trying to delay the case because “it is an election cycle.”
She said she will file an amended complaint and the case is up again on 1/14.
Great theater as this if you have the time.
Watch as this public nuisance and her useless, alleged sexual harassing husband waste more of the county’s money.
I think the fact that her own child speaks out against her says a lot about her character.
She should have left well enough alone.
I betcha she files another lawsuit against Cal when she loses the primary.
It will be his (and bloggers) fault that she lost.
Just remember Mary, had you not been so deceitful in so many instances, you would not be where you are now…a disgrace.
Mary McClellan and her Gil: They are bitter pills for us to swallow.
Is that libel, too?
Hanlon, knows what he is doing.
He’s a professional class act.
Mary is just pathetic.
Too bad, she doesn’t have a brain, because she will never get a clue.
She is too wrapped up in her bloated ego.
Usually, that is what is defined as “NARCISSISM”
Nunda is 100% correct!
I feel sorry for Mary.
Lying and cheating and playing the perpetual victim are her ways of life.
Let’s see who signed her petitions.
Great reporting on This candidate for judge. Yikes!
