Illinois Supreme Court Historic Preservation Commission

The Illinois Supreme Court Historic Preservation Commission was established in 2007 through the Supreme Court Historic Preservation Act, with the mandate to assist and advise the Court on the preservation and documentation of Illinois judiciary history. The Commission focuses on a wide array of historic materials, emphasizing the collection, cataloging, and preservation of buildings, documents, artifacts, and related information tied to the Illinois judicial system.

Among its initiatives, the Commission oversees the Retrial Collection and strives to educate the public about the judicial history of Illinois. The organization regularly commemorates significant events and figures in its history, including the contributions of former justices such as Chief Justice Benjamin K. Miller.
