3 Sec. 12-30. Violation of an order of protection.
4 (a) A person commits violation of an order of protection
5 if he or she:
6 (1) Commits an act which was prohibited by a court
7 or fails to commit an act which was ordered by a court in
8 violation of a remedy in a valid order of protection
9 authorized under paragraphs (1), (2), (3), or (14) of
10 subsection (b) of Section 214 of the Illinois Domestic
11 Violence Act of 1986, or any other remedy when the act
12 constitutes a crime against the protected parties as the
13 term protected parties is defined in Section 112A-4 of
14 the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963.
15 (2) Such violation occurs after the offender has
16 been served notice of the contents of the order, pursuant
17 to the Illinois Domestic Violence Act, or otherwise has
18 acquired actual knowledge of the contents of the order.
19 (b) For purposes of this Section, an "order of
20 protection" may have been issued by any circuit or associate
21 judge in the State of Illinois in a criminal or civil
22 proceeding.
23 (c) Nothing in this Section shall be construed to

4 increased penalty or such period of imprisonment would be
5 manifestly unjust. In addition to any other penalties, the
6 court may order the defendant to pay a fine as authorized
7 under Section 5-9-1 of the Unified Code of Corrections or to
8 make restitution to the victim under Section 5-5-6 of the

11 Unified Code of Corrections, the court shall impose an
12 additional fine of $20 as authorized by Section 5-9-1.11 of
13 the Unified Code of Corrections upon any person convicted of
14 or placed on supervision for a violation of this Section.
15 The additional fine shall be imposed for each violation of
16 this Section.
