(225 ILCS 441/15-20)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2027)
Sec. 15-20. Administrative Review Law; certification fees;
Illinois Administrative Procedure Act. (a) All final administrative decisions of the Department under this Act
are subject to
judicial review pursuant to the provisions of the Administrative Review Law and
the rules adopted pursuant thereto. The term "administrative decision" has the
meaning ascribed to it in Section 3-101 of the Administrative
Review Law.
(b) 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 and until the Department has received from the plaintiff payment of the costs of furnishing and certifying the record, which costs shall be determined by the Department. Exhibits shall be certified without cost. Failure on the part of the plaintiff to file a receipt in court is grounds for dismissal of the action.
(c) The Illinois Administrative Procedure Act is hereby expressly
adopted
and incorporated herein. In the event of a conflict between this
Act and the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act, this Act shall
control.
(d) Proceedings for judicial review shall be commenced in the circuit court of the county in which the party applying for review resides, but if the party is not a resident of Illinois, the venue shall be in Sangamon County or Cook County. (Source: P.A. 102-20, eff. 1-1-22.)
