Lake County judge named to state panel
Lake County Circuit Judge Jorge Ortiz was recently appointed to the Illinois Council on Responsible Fatherhood. The appointment was made by Gov. Pat Quinn earlier this month. The Council on Responsible Fatherhood is a state commission established by the legislature to promote the positive involvement of both parents in the lives of their children. "Judge Ortiz is an excellent choice to join the other members of the council," said Lake County Chief Judge John Phillips. Phillips added Ortiz has been recognized nationally and statewide as an authority for his work on child support issues and policies and written several articles.
