In Court This Week: Hearing for Murder, Lawsuit Against COD and Jenna Jameson's Breach of Contract Case
Here's a look at cases we're keeping an eye on in DuPage County courts.
A busy week at the DuPage County Judicial Center in Wheaton lies ahead. A few of the notable cases in front of judges are those against a man accused of killing a co-worker in Burr Ridge and a police officer accused of plotting to rob a suspected drug dealer.
Burr Ridge—, who is suspected in the 2009 murder of coworker Jason Dragos at SAIA Trucking, returns to court on July 27 for what will likely be an update on his defense team's analysis of computer records pulled by investigators. They are still likely to want to introduce evidence that shows someone other than Gilbert killed Dragos.
