EAST ST. LOUIS - Walmart turned down an offer from former employees to limit damages on their discrimination claims to less than $75,000 each so they could litigate in St. Clair County.
St. Clair County Circuit Judge Heinz Rudolf was awarded the Presidential Service Award by the Illinois Judges Association at the annual convention on Dec. 8.
A representative at the St. Clair County State's Attorney's Office said the prosecutor and his staff would not be commenting or answering any questions.
