Do Not Yawn In The Courtroom

A Richton Park man found out the hard way you do not yawn in Will County Circuit Judge Daniel Rozak's courtroom. Clifton Williams was attending the hearing of a cousin when he yawned in the courtroom and earned himself a six-month jail sentence from Rozak; he'll serve at least 21 days. The Trib did a little digging and it seems that Judge Rozak may be a bit over-zealous when it comes to handing out contempt of court sentences: he has accounted for over a third of contempt charges in Will County in the last 10 years.
