In the Illinois Pre-Need Cemetery Sales Act, provides that funds on deposit or held in trust attributable to undelivered cemetery merchandise and unperformed cemetery services are presumed abandoned if they are unclaimed by the apparent owner during the period 2 years after the earlier of specified events. Provides that if the seller is licensed to hold care funds, then within 30 days of receiving notice that pre-need trust funds are presumed abandoned, the trustee of the pre-need trust fund shall remit the presumptively abandoned property to the trustee for a care fund. Provides that if the seller has retained an independent trustee, then any funds remitted shall be remitted to the independent trustee. Provides that if the seller is not licensed to hold a care fund, the trustee of pre-need trust funds shall remit the presumptively abandoned trust funds to the Comptroller semiannually for deposit into the Cemetery Consumer Protection Fund.
