About this Article

A decision on whether Kane County Board Chairman Karen McConaughay improperly gave 14 employees raises won't come until after the election. A judge will hear arguments Nov. 13 on whether to issue a summary judgment in favor of McConaughay, who could be a state senator-elect by then. McConnaghay's lawyers submitted a motion asking a judge to rule in her favor, arguing that plaintiff Jim MacRunnels' lawsuit is deficient and moot.
