6     (735 ILCS 5/13-106)  (from Ch. 110, par. 13-106)
7     Sec. 13-106. Accrual of right of entry or to bring action.
8 The right to make an entry or bring an action to recover land
9 shall be deemed to have first accrued at the times respectively
10 hereinafter provided:
11     (a) When any person is wrongfully ousted from possession,
12 his or her right of entry or of action shall be deemed to have
13 accrued at the time of such wrongful ouster.
14     (b) When he or she claims as heir or legatee of an owner in
15 possession who died, his or her right shall be deemed to have
16 accrued at the time of such death, unless there is an estate
17 intervening after the death of such ancestor or testator; in
18 which case his or her right shall be deemed to accrue when such
19 intermediate estate expires, or when it would have expired by
20 its own limitations.
21     (c) When there is such an intermediate estate, and in all
22 other cases when the party claims by force of any remainder or
23 reversion, his or her right, so far as it is affected by the

 

 

HB2411 - 2 - LRB096 09096 AJO 19237 b

4 which he or she might have entered at an earlier time.
5     (d) Paragraph (c) of this Section shall not prevent a
6 person from entering when entitled to do so by reason of any
7 forfeiture or breach of condition; but if he or she claims
8 under such a title, his or her right shall be deemed to have
9 accrued when the forfeiture was incurred or the condition was
10 broken.
11     (e) In all cases not otherwise specially provided for, the
12 right shall be deemed to have accrued when the claimant, or the
13 person under whom he or she claims, first became entitled to
14 the possession of the premises under the title upon which the
15 entry or the action is founded.
16     (f) In the case of a publicly maintained sanitary or storm
17 sewer or water pipe, the right shall be deemed to have been
