Court Watch: Oswego Man Pleads Not Guilty to Naperville Robberies

Glen Ellyn:
A man who sued College of DuPage over injuries he sustained in a 2010 on-campus attack has been given additional time to refile his lawsuit after it was essentially thrown out in November. William Kendrick filed a lawsuit last year claiming the school and its police should have prevented him from being jumped by a group of non-students. COD successfully argued for dismissal on grounds it was protected under state immunity laws, and that Kendrick failed to make a premises liability claim against the school. Kendrick has until early next month to refile. A hearing is scheduled for March 28.

Naperville:
One man indicted in connection to several area robberies, including at least two in Naperville, has pleaded not guilty. Travis Gamble, 22, of Oswego, is charged with multiple counts of armed robbery, aggravated robbery and kidnapping. Gamble and Josiah McCroskey are accused of working with a third man, Cory Paytes, on different robberies that stretch back over the last year, according to prosecutors. Gamble returns to court March 27.

Wheaton:
An April trial date has been set in the case of a man accused of breaking into the unincorporated Wheaton home of an off-duty police officer last year. Kerin Ramirez is scheduled to stand trial April 3 on home invasion and battery charges, although he is due back in court on March 1 for a hearing on an unspecified motion filed by his attorney. Ramirez is accused of entering the officer's home and refusing to leave, before being shot in the abdomen by the officer, officials said.
