Any person affected by a final administrative decision of the
Department may have such decision reviewed judicially by the circuit court
of the county wherein such person resides. If the plaintiff in the review
proceedings is not a resident of this State, the venue shall be in Sangamon
County. The provisions of the Administrative Review Law, and all amendments
and modifications thereof, and the rules adopted
pursuant thereto, shall apply to and govern all proceedings for the

hereunder. The term "administrative decision" is defined as in Section 3-101
of the Code of Civil Procedure.
The Department shall not be required to certify any record to the court
or file any answer in court or otherwise appear in any court in a Judicial
review proceeding, unless there is filed in the court with the complaint a
receipt from the Department acknowledging payment of the costs of
furnishing and certifying the record which costs shall be computed at the
rate of 20 cents per page of such record. Exhibit shall be certified
without cost. Failure on the part of the Plaintiff to file such receipt in
