1 HISPANIC LAWYERS ASSOCIATION OF ILLINOIS NEWSLETTER November/ December 2013 NOTICIAS President s Message One of our main focuses in the recent past is to figure out a way to get better access to the courts for the Hispanic community. We have been involved in a number of activities to achieve that goal. One activity is in connection with the HLAI Judicial Evaluation Committee headed by Federico Rodriguez. The HLAI Judicial Evaluation Committee is currently the co-chair of the Alliance that evaluates judicial candidates. As part of the Alliance, HLAI lends its presence to the process of selecting and retaining judges. HLAI s involvement in the Alliance gives us credibility when we support HLAI members and others for judicial positions. HLAI supports qualified Hispanic judicial candidates, which will result in a more diverse bench. Another HLAI activity is its activity in connection with greater access to the courts for Spanish-speaking litigants. HLAI has met with the Clerk of Lake County to discuss changes that might be implemented to enable Spanishspeaking litigants to better navigate the courthouse. HLAI and the Lake County Clerk s Office will work together to compile resources directed to Spanish-speaking litigants so that they may access the court s resources. Once we have compiled these resources and implemented them in Lake County, we will make them available to other counties. HLAI will work with a number of other groups on this project; the following groups have expressed their interest to be part of this endeavor: Illinois Latino Family Commission; Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts; and Arden Shore Child and Family Services in Waukegan. The HLAI Legislative Committee is involved in other activities. Members of the Illinois Legislature have proposed ideas directed to appointment and election of judges. HLAI s Legislative Committee is part of those discussions and provides input to achieve a more diverse judiciary. See our Featured Committee segment on page 2. Finally, HLAI supports and encourages its members to support HLAI members running for a judicial seat or seeking judicial appointments. Currently, four of our members are in this position and we encourage you to support them. See their member profiles below.

2 HISPANIC LAWYERS ASSOCIATION OF ILLINOIS NEWSLETTER November/ December 2013 Featured Committee: Legislative Committee The Legislative Committee (LC) is chaired by Claudia Castro and Efrain Vega. The committee was started this summer to help facilitate legislative efforts for issues affecting HLAI, its members, and the communities it serves. The Legislative Committee hit the ground running by working with the LGBTQ Committee in its efforts to address immigration issues affecting the LGBTQ community. The LC met with Senator Dick Durbin s staff to speak on these issues. Currently, the LC is working on two constitutional amendments affecting the judiciary. One constitutional amendment is to address the retention of sitting judges and the other constitutional amendment would create special commissions in each judicial circuit to evaluate the qualifications of judges seeking retention. Having Efrain Vega in Chicago and Claudia Castro in Springfield enables the LC to better achieve its policy goals. Featured Members: The following HLAI members are running for judicial positions: Al Maldonado - For over fifteen years as an assistant Cook County Public Defender, Al Maldonado has fought to defend the rights of indigent people. He has tried almost 60 felony jury trials and hundreds of bench trials. Because of his litigation experience and abilities, Al serves in the Public Defender s Murder Task Force where he defends persons accused of committing murder. Al graduated from the University of Iowa College of Liberal Arts in 1993 with Bachelor of Arts degrees in History and Political Science and graduated with distinction from the University of Iowa College of Law in Committed to community service, Al serves as the Recording Secretary for the Hispanic Lawyers Association of Illinois (HLAI) and works to promote HLAI s mission of community involvement. Al has worked as a volunteer lawyer helping people with housing and financial problems. He is one of the founding members of an after school tutoring program for an inner city elementary school. Additionally, Al is a coach in the Phillip H. Corboy Fellowship Program in Trial Advocacy at Loyola University of Chicago Law School, and his teams have won national mock trial competitions.
