Judge F. Keith Brown, retired from the Illinois Sixteenth Judicial Circuit Court on July 5, 2014. He had served as a judge since his election to the court in 1996. Brown previously served as an associate judge for the court from 1991 to 1996, becoming the first African-American judge to sit on a court in Kane County, Illinois.[1][2] During his judicial career, Brown presided over criminal, civil, and family court cases. While serving as the chief judge, he established a new court in the City of St. Charles, improved the probation department's supervision of defendants, and updated the technology used by the court system in Kane County.[1] As for his judicial philosophy, Brown has stated: "I’ve lived by the golden rule — to treat everybody like you’d like to be treated. I’ve tried to treat everyone with respect and I tried to listen to both sides. I tried to keep a tone in my court where everyone was comfortable and could conduct their business."[1] While Brown may have retired from judicial service, he will continue to work in the legal field as a mediator with ADR Systems, an alternative dispute resolution firm in Chicago. He will also serve as of counsel to the law firm of Meyers & Flowers, LLC in St. Charles.[2][3] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
