It would mean closing bond court on the weekends at five suburban courthouses in the coming months and creating a single weekend bond court at the courthouse at 26th and California.
Five suburban courthouses now hold bond hearings on Saturdays: Skokie, Rolling Meadows, Maywood, Bridgeview and Markham.
The process will begin January 7 at the Bridgeview courthouse, and the rest of the courthouses will begin closing their weekend bond courts over the next two to three months.
