The court appearance stemmed from a Freedom of Information Act request from a downstate organization seeking credit card records.

According to court documents, Henyard initially ignored the request for months and failed to show up for a hearing on the matter.

During her virtual appearance, a Cook County judge said Henyard must provide the paperwork and appear in court in person on Friday, June 6.
