This case was filed on November 16, 2007. That's almost four years ago.The next court date is tomorrow, September 12, 9:00AM.

Examine the list of court dates. How many have there been? Almost too many to count (easily).

One of these days judges may start telling lawyers, "Be ready in 30 days. This case is not going on for years!" If they had done this sooner, maybe the 22nd Judicial Circuit wouldn't need two new judges.
