Litigant

Comment #: IL4493
Rating:Not Rated
Comments:
awful.stay out of this county if you can. they are all good ole boys network, lining the pockets of select few local attorneys. Robbing families for years. Absolutely horrid to pro se. Will mute you to silence your testimony if appearing remotely.He can't ever remember what he said at the previous hearing. Treats those facing foreclosure and eviction like they are criminals. Forget litigating in Kendall if you are a person of color (I am white but witnessed courtroom racism on numerous occasions)
He is mean and miserable from years of screwing over the innocent. Our estate was negative by the time Krentz and his cronies bulldozed us.

I have to agree with comment 4120.This judge lacks patience,is cold apathetic,& bias He is unable to restrain himself from defaming the plaintiff who has a cogent presentation as he wants total control&ignores facts if you dont fit in his paradigm & penalizes anyone who does not confirm even if the facts support the truth.The 1st amendment has no place in this judge's world

He makes arbitrary decisions and is lazy, he has a network of good ole boys he protects. Kendall County judges are a close knit cult who cater to each other. He lacks patience and understanding.He is cold and apathetic. Mr. Krentz, you will answer to God someday and next to him will be baby Danley and all the deceased who you and your cult have stolen from their families.
