Cook County court clerk's hiring will be monitored
Posted June 02, 2018 1:00 am
Embattled Cook County Circuit Court Clerk Dorothy Brown will have a federally appointed monitor in her office to make sure she complies with fair hiring practices. The decision by U.S. Magistrate Judge Sidney Schenkier will be finalized in August.

Brown could not be reached for comment.
