Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Criminal Code of 1961. Provides that a public contractor, employee of a public contractor, or a person seeking a public contract also commits the offense of public contractor misconduct when he or she knowingly or intentionally seeks or receives compensation or reimbursement for goods and services he or she purported to deliver or render, but failed to do so pursuant to the terms of the contract, to the unit of State or local government or school district. Provides that any person convicted of the offense or a similar offense in any state of the United States which contains the same elements of public contractor misconduct shall be barred for 10 years from the date of conviction from contracting with, employment by, or holding public office with the State or any unit of local government or school district. Provides that the Attorney General or the State's Attorney in the county where the principal office of the unit of local government or school district is located may bring a civil action on behalf of any unit of State or local government to recover a civil penalty from any person who knowingly engages in conduct which violates the statute in treble the amount of the monetary cost to the unit of State or local government or school district involved in the violation.
