Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

(35 ILCS 1010/1-55)

    Sec. 1-55. Fees.
    (a) The Tax Tribunal shall impose a fee of $500 for the filing of petitions.

(b) The Tax Tribunal may fix a fee, not in excess of the fees charged and collected by the clerk of the circuit courts, for comparing, or for preparing and comparing, a transcript of the record, or for copying any record, entry, or other paper and the comparison and certification thereof.

(c)  Fees collected under this Section shall be deposited into the Illinois Independent Tax Tribunal Fund, a special fund created in the State treasury.  Moneys
deposited into the  Fund shall be appropriated to the Tax Tribunal to
reimburse the Tax Tribunal for costs associated with administering and enforcing the provisions of this Act.

(d)  The Tax Tribunal shall not assign any costs or attorney's fees incurred by one party against another party.  Claims for expenses and attorney's fees under Section 10-55 of the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act  shall first be made to the Department of Revenue.  If the claimant is dissatisfied because of the Department's failure to make any award or because of the insufficiency of the award, the claimant may petition the Court of Claims for the amount deemed owed.
