I need to eat my words. Judge Mikva has an extremely impressive bio.

What are the odds that the Cook County judge graduated from John Marshall 30 years ago? It's no secret that a fair number, almost certainly a majority, of Cook County judges graduated from 2nd, 3rd, and 4th tier law schools. John Marshall grads run many gears in the Chicago Machine. I'm not sure what that fact speaks to.

I wonder if these opinions have been consolidated in one location.
