Criminal Matters

Arraignments in criminal cases will be conducted by Judge Lefkow on Wednesdays at 9:15 a.m.

To avoid unreasonable scheduling conflicts, counsel must contact Judge Lefkow’s Courtroom Deputy at least one day in advance of a change of plea hearing if the plea is not going forward. In addition, a draft copy of the proposed plea agreement should be delivered to the judge’s chambers at least one day in advance of the date of the hearing.

The same requirements pertain to sentencings - please notify Judge Lefkow’s clerk as soon as possible if a sentencing date needs to be rescheduled.
