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.
(225 ILCS 450/30) (from Ch. 111, par. 5535)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2029)
Sec. 30. Injunctions; cease and desist. (a) If any person or entity violates any provision of this Act, the Secretary may, in the name of the people of the State
of Illinois by the Attorney General of the State of Illinois or the
State's Attorney of any county in which the violation is alleged to have occurred, petition for an order enjoining the violation or for an order enforcing compliance with this Act. Upon the filing of a verified petition in court, the court may issue a temporary restraining order, without notice or bond, and may preliminarily and permanently enjoin the violation. If it is established that the person has violated or is violating the injunction, the court may punish the offender for contempt of court. The injunction proceeding
shall be
in addition to and not in lieu of any penalties or other remedies provided
by this Act. No injunction shall issue under this section against any
person for any act exempted under Section 11 of this Act.
(b) If any person shall practice as a licensed CPA or
a registered CPA or hold oneself out
as a licensed CPA or registered CPA without being licensed or registered under the
provisions of this
Act then any licensed CPA or registered CPA, any interested party, or
any person
injured thereby may, in addition to the Department, petition for
relief
as provided in subsection (a).
(c) Whenever in the opinion of the Department any person violates
any provision
of this Act, the Department may issue a rule to show cause why an
order
to cease and desist should not be entered against the person. The rule shall clearly
set
forth the grounds relied upon by the Department and shall provide
a period
of 7 days from the date of the rule to file an answer to the satisfaction
of the Department. Failure to answer to the satisfaction of the
Department
shall cause an order to cease and desist to be issued forthwith.
