Court approves final settlement payments in Turner Construction case
Summary
After an executive session, Kendall County approved final settlement accounting and authorized payment of attorneys' fees of $253,750 and costs of $26,771.06 to Gravely PC related to the Turner Construction litigation; motion carried in open session.
Returning from executive session on March 24, Kendall County general counsel presented a final settlement accounting for the Turner Construction litigation. The court approved payment of attorneys' fees in the amount of $253,750 and payment of costs totaling $26,771.06 to Gravely PC under the contingency fee agreement negotiated earlier in the case.
General counsel explained the contingency calculation—costs are deducted before computing the contingency percentage—and confirmed that county receipts from the settlement exceed these payments. Commissioners voted to authorize the electronic transfers required to pay Gravely PC, and the motion carried 3–0 with two members absent for the vote.
The county clerk's minutes will reflect the closed‑session discussion followed by the open‑session vote authorizing the payments.
