Judge Bender has been on the bench in Cook County since 1996 in the domestic division. Judge Bender's office did not return phone calls.
SIDEBAR: It is important to speak truth to power and for the public to know who are the bais and prejudice judges in every court system in the U.S. including Cook County Illinois. Can anyone imagion a judge in a post decree domestic division depriving a father of hearing a motion for visitation when that father has tried for 5 years to see his children.
