Can I send a letter to the judge?

The court system is built on the idea of due process, that is the idea that each side receives notice of court dates, and has an opportunity to be heard.

Also, both sides should be present and involved in any argument or discussion before the court. Except in emergency situations.

So, judges are usually not permitted to  communicate one-on-one with either party or their attorney about the case, without the other side or their attorney present, except for minor scheduling details.

That is why it is not permissible to write a letter and send it to the judge about your case.

If you have questions about court procedures or rules, or about the laws that apply to your case, please give me a call at 312-493-4241.
