An Illinois Final Pretrial Order (Judge Cox) is a court order issued by a judge in the state of Illinois that outlines the terms of a pretrial hearing. This order typically contains the names of the parties involved in the dispute, the date the order was issued, the type of dispute, the judge's rulings, and the date of the pretrial hearing. There are two types of Illinois Final Pretrial Orders (Judge Cox): an Order of Default and a Final Order. An Order of Default is issued when a party fails to appear at the pretrial hearing, and a Final Order is issued when a settlement is reached between the parties. In both cases, the order will outline the terms of the settlement or ruling.
