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.

    (810 ILCS 5/9-601)
    (Text of Section before amendment by P.A. 103-1036)
    Sec. 9-601. Rights after default; judicial enforcement; consignor or buyer of accounts, chattel paper, payment intangibles, or promissory notes.
    (a) Rights of secured party after default. After default, a secured party has the rights provided in this Part and, except as otherwise provided in Section 9-602, those provided by agreement of the parties. A secured party:
        (1) may reduce a claim to judgment, foreclose, or
    
otherwise enforce the claim, security interest, or agricultural lien by any available judicial procedure; and
        (2) if the collateral is documents, may proceed
    
either as to the documents or as to the goods they cover.
    (b) Rights and duties of secured party in possession or control. A secured party in possession of collateral or control of collateral under Section 7-106, 9-104, 9-105, 9-106, or 9-107 has the rights and duties provided in Section 9-207.
    (c) Rights cumulative; simultaneous exercise. The rights under subsections (a) and (b) are cumulative and may be exercised simultaneously.
    (d) Rights of debtor and obligor. Except as otherwise provided in subsection (g) and Section 9-605, after default, a debtor and an obligor have the rights provided in this Part and by agreement of the parties.
    (e) Lien of levy after judgment. If a secured party has reduced its claim to judgment, the lien of any levy that may be made upon the collateral by virtue of a judgment relates back to the earliest of:
        (1) the date of perfection of the security interest
    
or agricultural lien in the collateral;
        (2) the date of filing a financing statement covering
    
the collateral; or
        (3) any date specified in a statute under which the
    
agricultural lien was created.
    (f) Execution sale. A sale pursuant to a judgment is a foreclosure of the security interest or agricultural lien by judicial procedure within the meaning of this Section. A secured party may purchase at the sale and thereafter hold the collateral free of any other requirements of this Article.
    (g) Consignor or buyer of certain rights to payment. Except as otherwise provided in Section 9-607(c), this Part imposes no duties upon a secured party that is a consignor or is a buyer of accounts, chattel paper, payment intangibles, or promissory notes.
