11 knowledge of the contents of the order.
12 An order of protection issued by a state, tribal or
13 territorial court related to domestic or family violence
14 shall be deemed valid if the issuing court had jurisdiction
15 over the parties and matter under the law of the state, tribe
16 or territory. There shall be a presumption of validity where
17 an order is certified and appears authentic on its face.
18 (a-5) Failure to provide reasonable notice and

9 shall impose a minimum penalty of 24 hours imprisonment for
10 defendant's second or subsequent violation of any order of
11 protection; unless the court explicitly finds that an
12 increased penalty or such period of imprisonment would be
13 manifestly unjust. In addition to any other penalties, the
14 court may order the defendant to pay a fine as authorized
15 under Section 5-9-1 of the Unified Code of Corrections or to
16 make restitution to the victim under Section 5-5-6 of the

19 Unified Code of Corrections, the court shall impose an

24 this Section.

26 by Section 305 of the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986
27 apply to actions taken under this Section.
