Illinois General Assembly - Bill Status for HB5001

Amends provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure requiring a copy of a notice of foreclosure of residential real estate or a copy of a confirmation order after a confirmation of sale of residential real estate following a foreclosure to be sent by a party seeking foreclosure to the municipality or county where the mortgaged real estate is located and to the known insurers. Provides that if the municipality or county has not posted an address to which the notice of foreclosure or copy of a confirmation order must be sent, the notice of foreclosure or copy of a confirmation order must be sent to the chairperson of the county board or county clerk, mayor or city clerk, president of the board of trustees or village clerk, or president or town clerk (rather than sent in accordance with specified provisions of the Code). If the real estate is located in a city with a population of more than 2,000,000, also requires a notice of foreclosure or copy of a confirmation order to be sent to the city clerk, requires an affidavit attesting that the notice of foreclosure or copy of a confirmation order was sent, requires the city clerk to send a copy of a notice of foreclosure to the alderman for the ward in which the real estate is located, provides for dismissal of a complaint or counterclaim without prejudice if the requirements regarding a notice of foreclosure are not met, and adds notice requirements when a party refiles the complaint or counterclaim after a dismissal. Makes other changes.
