A 5 bedroom courthouse complete with a housekeeper.


I had not heard of a courthouse that provides living accomodations for its judges but it turns out that one exists in Illinois. It seems that by using a courthouse built for the Illinois Supreme Court back in 1860 when the justices of that court "rode the circuit," the judges of the Third District Appellate Court, when sitting in Ottawa, stay at the five bedroom - each with private bath - courthouse. Another perk that comes with the courthouse is that the housekeeper also prepares breakfast and lunch for the judges when they are in town.

Ok. I admit it. I'm jealous.
