Civil Appeal Basics: Attacking Judgments Other Than by Appeal

Learn how to challenge judicial outcomes beyond the standard appellate process with this informative online seminar led by experienced appellate lawyer Timothy J. Storm. The program covers the legal and practical aspects of both direct and collateral attacks on judgments, including: post-trial and post-judgment motions in jury and non-jury cases under 735 ILCS 5/2-1202 and 2-1203; the steps for setting aside default judgments via § 2-1301(e); the procedure to seek a supervisory order from the Illinois Supreme Court; the requirements for relief from judgments under §§ 2-1401 and 2-1401.1; and the options available to obtain relief from void judgments. Whether you are seeking to vacate a recent default or challenge a years-old judgment, this seminar equips you with the tools to effectively challenge a judgment before, after, or instead of taking an appeal. Register here.
