    I) Petitioner was before the Court on December 7"', 2009, afterwards feeling she was

    inadequate in her presentation before the court in part because of inexperience in the

    process and in part because of infonnation unknown to he r at the time, that petitioner

    now knows to be critically gennane to her original petition.

    2) History: Petitioner reaffinns she seeks to appear before the "Sitting Grand Jury" to

    present evidence of massive voter fraud in McHenry County. This fraud potentially

    touches on all elected offices, especially as regulated by Illinois Election Codes. This

    fraud impacted elections in the past, and to her direct knowledge, especially the Primary

    and General election in 2008.

    3) In the course of her investigations, Petitioner has learned that early voting begins in

    Illinois on January 11th.Thereby delay of response to January 13 th is an impennissible

    barrier to Petitioner's petitions for emergency redress. The impending election, beginning

    on January 9 th has candidates on the ballot that have not been verified as constitutionally

    eligible and the petitioner is unaware of any other redress available to her.

    4) Petitioner affirms learning immediately following court, outside the courtroom in front of

    multiple witnesses, from a McHenry County resident attending the December 7th session,

    that absentee voting begins in Illinois on Monday, January 11,2009 which is before the

    current return court date of January 13"'. Petitioner confinns this infonnation below.

    MONDAY, JANUARY 11,2010 The fIrst day for local election officials (qualifIed municipal,township. and road district clerks) authorized by the election authority to conduct in-personabsentee voting. {(10 ILCS 5/19-2.1)Oltp:llwww.elections.il.govIDownloadslElectionlnformationlP DF/20 IOCalendar.pdf: page 9)

    5) To queries, of .. "How is this an emergency?", Petitioner passionately affinns that We

    The People of Illinois invest trust in our Government to assure the constitutional

    governance of our US and State Constitutions. Petitioner has discovered that the all

    elections involving candidates for constitutionally mandated offices in the grand state of

    Illinois potentially contain candidates who are not constitutionally qualified for office.

    Petitioner affinns this infonnation came to her attention after learning that Illinois current

    election statutes and processes "CertifY" candidates without "VerifYing" that they are

    constitutionally eligible to hold the office. Petitioner humbly admits the gravity of his

    reality is far-reaching.

    6) This process of certifYing' candidates without 'verifYing' they are constitutionally

    eligible is a long standing process of current Illinois code and is therefore lawful despite

    the fact it is grievously flawed in securing that We The People have a Constitutional

    government, at the local, state and federal level. The code is not constitutionally sound.

    7) As all elected officials have been elected through the same process, Petitioner is 'beside

    herself' fervently seeking the correct place to have redress to her grievance.

    8) The "EMER GENCY" status of this is indisputable. Petitioner is personally aware ofan

    elected official in the highest place of national and state security who was never verified

    in the state of Illinois as being constitutionally eligible for office. This Constitutional

    EMERGENCY cannot be greater.

    9) Petitioner along with McHenl)' County resident and Patriot Hearts Member, Mal)' Alger,

    has met with the State's Attorney and his office to discuss this EMERGENCY.

    Petitioner believes this is not an "adversaria l" relationship with the State' s Attorney

    Office. Thereby she seeks to work closely with them.

    I 0) On Friday December 12,2009, Petitioner spoke with the Sta te' s Attorney Office. During

    that conversation she infurmed them she was sending mail to the Grand Jury as part of

    her understanding that this was one of 4 ways the sitting Grand Jury might come to know

    of her EMERGENCY request. Petitioner wanted to assure she made every attempt she

    believes available to her, without cross ing barriers unknown to her and thus seeks full

    transparency of her actions.

    II ) Likewise, Petitioner, believe that this Court is the correct place for this redress and seeks

    to lawfully work with the Court, to secure redress to this EMERGENCY.

    12) By way of explanation, Petitioner states that she is mostly inexperienced in court

    proceedings and on December 7th, was not clear of he processes of this Court.

    Petitioner sought remedy for her defic iencies by working through the outstanding public

    service provided under Chief Judge Sullivan's leadership, the McHenry County Law

    Library located at the McHenry County Center.

    Petitioner has since spent time amongst the talented team of professionals in the

    McHenry County Court Law Library, and using resources provided there, thereby

    learning about the processes of court in general, and the 22 nO Judicial Circuit Court in

    specific, especially as relates to Grand Juries. While Petitioner has become an 'expert' of

    sorts on some aspects of Constitutional Law, her knowledge of courtroom proceedings

    has been enriched since Monday Dec 7"'. Knowledge gained from petitioner's interaction

    with the 'Law Library is incorporated in this EMERGENCY motion.

    13) Petit ioner did not realize until Tuesday, December 8'" 2009, that in the Court 's decision

    to not expedite the time for the States' Attorney Office's to respond to less than 30 days,

    that in fact that meant the original Emergency Motion was denied. To the Honorable

    Judge, Petitioner humbly and fervently endeavors to redress the deficiency.

    9 14) In preparing the original petition, Petitioner assumed, through the Judge, it would be

    10 delivered directly to the grand jury seated on December 2 nd , 2009. Frankly, Petitioner

    II was not aware of how Grand Jury matters proceed in McHenry County. Petitioner now

    12 believes this is such an fMERGENCY that regular procedures have not been clear to her

    13 hecause it really not a "regular" circumstance.

    15) Petitioner specifically addressed her original petition to the sitting grand jury. (reference:

    page 2, line 6 of the original petition). A return court date of January 13 th 2010, impedes

    Petitioner's ability to work with Sitting Grand Jury Respondents during their regular time

    in service as the sitting Grand Jury.

    16) Upon reflection, after leaving court, petitioner recalled Judge Prather's words to the

    effect that McHenry County always has a grand jury seated. Nervous at the time,

    petitioner failed to inform the court of her reasons for specifying the grand jury seated on

    Dec 2 nd , the day of her filing, because she believes they are the only lawful body

    available to her for redress of this EMERGENCY.

    17) At the Law Library, Petitioner learned about "Motions to Reconsider" on Monday,December 15

    th, 2009, and has filed this Emergency motion according to this information.

    Stringer v. Packaging Corporation of America No. 4-03-1080 (4th Dis!. 2004), the courtexplained the limited situations in which a motion to reconsider is appropriate:The purpose of a motion to reconsider is to bring to the trial court's attention (I) newly discoveredevidence not available at the time ofthe hearing, (2) changes in the law, or (3) errors in the court'sprevious application of existing law. The decision to grant or deny a motion to reconsider lieswithin the tria1 court's discretion.

    Id. (citation omitted). The Stringer court also stated that if he motion to reconsider is based uponnewly-discovered evidence, "a party must show thaI the newly discovered evidence existed beforethe initial hearing but had not yet been discovered or was otherwise unobtainable."Source /or thi., in/ormation is: http://illinoistrialpractice.coml2004/09/plainliff deslr.hlml
