Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
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.
510 ILCS 68/100-10 (510 ILCS 68/100-10) Sec. 100-10. Search and seizure. Whenever any authorized employee of the Department, sheriff, deputy sheriff, or other peace officer of the State has reason to believe that any person, owner, possessor, commercial institution, pet store, or reptile show vendor or attendee possesses any herptile or any part or parts of a herptile contrary to the provisions of this Act, including administrative rules, he or she may file, or cause to be filed, a sworn complaint to that effect before the circuit court and procure and execute a search warrant. Upon execution of the search warrant, the officer executing the search warrant shall make due return of the search warrant to the court issuing the search warrant, together with an inventory of all the herptiles or any part or parts of a herptile taken under the search warrant. The court shall then issue process against the party owning, controlling, or transporting the herptile or any part of a herptile seized, and upon its return shall proceed to determine whether or not the herptile or any part or parts of a herptile were held, possessed, or transported in violation of this Act, including administrative rules. In case of a finding that a herptile was illegally held, possessed, transported, or sold, a judgment shall be entered against the owner or party found in possession of the herptile or any part or parts of a herptile for the costs of the proceeding and providing for the disposition of the property seized, as provided for by this Act.
