proceedings for the | 12 | | purposes of examining the judgment debtor or any other
person | 13 | | to discover assets or income of the debtor not exempt from the
| 14 | | enforcement of the judgment, a deduction order or garnishment, | 15 | | and of
compelling the application of non-exempt assets or | 16 | | income discovered toward the
payment of the amount due under | 17 | | the judgment. A supplementary proceeding shall

judgment, or its | 13 | | revival date, the balance due thereon, the name of the court,
| 14 | | and the number of the case, and a copy of the citation notice | 15 | | required by this

the judgment | 18 | | debtor, within three business days of the service upon the | 19 | | cited
party, a copy of the citation and the citation notice, | 20 | | which may be sent
by regular first-class mail to the judgment | 21 | | debtor's last known address. In no

CERTAIN INCOME OR ASSETS OR BOTH. The | 15 | | judgment debtor also has the right to
seek a declaration at an | 16 | | earlier date, by notifying the clerk in writing at

absent or incomplete Income and | 13 | | Asset Form, and a judgment debtor may be examined for the | 14 | | purpose of allowing the judgment creditor to discover income | 15 | | and assets belonging to the judgment debtor or in which the | 16 | | judgment debtor has an interest. | 17 | | (c) When assets or income of the judgment debtor not exempt | 18 | | from
the satisfaction of a judgment, a deduction order or | 19 | | garnishment are
discovered, the court may, by appropriate order | 20 | | or judgment:
| 21 | | (1) Compel the judgment debtor to deliver up, to be | 22 | | applied in
satisfaction of the judgment, in whole or in | 23 | | part, money, choses in
action, property or effects in his | 24 | | or her possession or control, so discovered,
capable of | 25 | | delivery and to which his or her title or right of | 26 | | possession is not
substantially disputed.
|
| | | HB5434 Enrolled | - 10 - | LRB097 16836 AJO 62018 b |
|
| 1 | | (2) Compel the judgment debtor to pay to the judgment | 2 | | creditor or
apply on the judgment, in installments, a | 3 | | portion of his or her income, however
or whenever earned or | 4 | | acquired, as the court may deem proper, having due
regard | 5 | | for the reasonable requirements of the judgment debtor and | 6 | | his or her
family, if dependent upon him or her, as well as | 7 | | any payments required to be
made by prior order of court or | 8 | | under wage assignments outstanding; provided
that the | 9 | | judgment debtor shall not be compelled to pay income which | 10 | | would be
considered exempt as wages under the Wage | 11 | | Deduction Statute. The court may
modify an order for | 12 | | installment payments, from time to time, upon application
| 13 | | of either party upon notice to the other.
| 14 | | (3) Compel any person cited, other than the judgment | 15 | | debtor, to
deliver up any assets so discovered, to be | 16 | | applied in satisfaction of
the judgment, in whole or in | 17 | | part, when those assets are held under such
circumstances | 18 | | that in an action by the judgment debtor he or she could | 19 | | recover
them in specie or obtain a judgment for the | 20 | | proceeds or value thereof as
for conversion or | 21 | | embezzlement. A judgment creditor may recover a corporate | 22 | | judgment debtor's property on behalf of the judgment debtor | 23 | | for use of the judgment creditor by filing an appropriate | 24 | | petition within the citation proceedings.
| 25 | | (4) Enter any order upon or judgment against the person | 26 | | cited that
could be entered in any garnishment proceeding.
|
| | | HB5434 Enrolled | - 11 - | LRB097 16836 AJO 62018 b |
|
| 1 | | (5) Compel any person cited to execute an assignment of | 2 | | any chose in
action or a conveyance of title to real or | 3 | | personal property or resign memberships in exchanges, | 4 | | clubs, or other entities in the
same manner and to the same | 5 | | extent as a court could do in any proceeding
by a judgment | 6 | | creditor to enforce payment of a judgment or in aid of
the | 7 | | enforcement of a judgment.
| 8 | | (6) Authorize the judgment creditor to maintain an | 9 | | action against
any person or corporation that, it appears | 10 | | upon proof satisfactory to
the court, is indebted to the | 11 | | judgment debtor, for the recovery of the
debt, forbid the | 12 | | transfer or other disposition of the debt until an
action | 13 | | can be commenced and prosecuted to judgment, direct that | 14 | | the
papers or proof in the possession or control of the | 15 | | debtor and necessary
in the prosecution of the action be | 16 | | delivered to the creditor or
impounded in court, and | 17 | | provide for the disposition of any moneys in
excess of the | 18 | | sum required to pay the judgment creditor's judgment and
| 19 | | costs allowed by the court.
| 20 | | (c-5) If a citation is directed to a judgment debtor who is | 21 | | a natural person, no payment
order shall be entered under | 22 | | subsection (c) unless the Income and Asset Form was served upon | 23 | | the judgment debtor as required by subsection (b-1), the | 24 | | judgment debtor has had an opportunity to assert exemptions, | 25 | | and the payments are from non-exempt sources. | 26 | | (d) No order or judgment shall be entered under subsection |
| | | HB5434 Enrolled | - 12 - | LRB097 16836 AJO 62018 b |
|
| 1 | | (c) in favor of
the judgment creditor unless there appears of | 2 | | record a certification of
mailing showing that a copy of the | 3 | | citation and a copy of the citation notice was mailed to the | 4 | | judgment debtor as required by subsection (b).
| 5 | | (d-5) If upon examination the court determines that the | 6 | | judgment debtor does not possess any non-exempt income or | 7 | | assets, then the citation shall be dismissed. | 8 | | (e) All property ordered to be delivered up shall, except | 9 | | as
otherwise provided in this Section, be delivered to the | 10 | | sheriff to be
collected by the sheriff or sold at public sale | 11 | | and the proceeds thereof
applied towards the payment of costs | 12 | | and the satisfaction of the judgment. If the judgment debtor's | 13 | | property is of such a nature that it is not readily delivered | 14 | | up to the sheriff for public sale or if another method of sale | 15 | | is more appropriate to liquidate the property or enhance its | 16 | | value at sale, the court may order the sale of such property by | 17 | | the debtor, third party respondent, or by a selling agent other | 18 | | than the sheriff upon such terms as are just and equitable. The | 19 | | proceeds of sale, after deducting reasonable and necessary | 20 | | expenses, are to be turned over to the creditor and applied to | 21 | | the balance due on the judgment.
| 22 | | (f) (1) The citation may prohibit the party to whom it is | 23 | | directed from
making or allowing any transfer or other | 24 | | disposition of, or interfering with,
any property not | 25 | | exempt from the enforcement of a judgment therefrom, a
| 26 | | deduction order or garnishment, belonging to the judgment |
| | | HB5434 Enrolled | - 13 - | LRB097 16836 AJO 62018 b |
|
| 1 | | debtor or to which he
or she may be entitled or which may | 2 | | thereafter be acquired by or become due to
him or her, and | 3 | | from paying over or otherwise disposing of any moneys not | 4 | | so
exempt which are due or to become due to the judgment | 5 | | debtor, until the further
order of the court or the | 6 | | termination of the proceeding, whichever occurs
first. The | 7 | | third party may not be obliged to withhold the payment of | 8 | | any
moneys beyond double the amount of the balance due | 9 | | sought to be enforced by the
judgment creditor. The court | 10 | | may punish any party who violates the restraining
provision | 11 | | of a citation as and for a contempt, or if the party is a | 12 | | third party
may enter judgment against him or her in the | 13 | | amount of the unpaid portion of
the judgment and costs | 14 | | allowable under this Section, or in the amount of the
value | 15 | | of the property transferred, whichever is lesser.
| 16 | | (2) The court may enjoin any person, whether or not a | 17 | | party to the
supplementary proceeding, from making or | 18 | | allowing any transfer or other
disposition of, or | 19 | | interference with, the property of the judgment
debtor not | 20 | | exempt from the enforcement of a judgment, a deduction | 21 | | order or
garnishment, or the property or debt not so exempt | 22 | | concerning which any
person is required to attend and be | 23 | | examined until further direction in the
premises. The | 24 | | injunction order shall remain in effect until vacated by | 25 | | the
court or until the proceeding is terminated, whichever | 26 | | first occurs.
|
| | | HB5434 Enrolled | - 14 - | LRB097 16836 AJO 62018 b |
|
| 1 | | (g) If it appears that any property, chose in action, | 2 | | credit or
effect discovered, or any interest therein, is | 3 | | claimed by any person, the court
shall, as in garnishment | 4 | | proceedings, permit or require the claimant to appear
and | 5 | | maintain his or her right. The rights of the person cited
and | 6 | | the rights of any adverse claimant shall be asserted and | 7 | | determined
pursuant to the law relating to garnishment | 8 | | proceedings.
| 9 | | (h) Costs in proceedings authorized by this Section shall | 10 | | be
allowed, assessed and paid in accordance with rules, | 11 | | provided that if the
court determines, in its discretion, that | 12 | | costs incurred by the judgment
creditor were improperly | 13 | | incurred, those costs shall be paid by the judgment
creditor.
| 14 | | (i) This Section is in addition to and does not affect
| 15 | | enforcement of judgments or proceedings supplementary thereto, | 16 | | by any other
methods now or hereafter provided by law.
| 17 | | (j) This Section does not grant the power to any court to | 18 | | order
installment or other payments from, or compel the sale, | 19 | | delivery,
surrender, assignment or conveyance of any property | 20 | | exempt by statute
from the enforcement of a judgment thereon, a | 21 | | deduction order, garnishment,
attachment, sequestration, | 22 | | process or other levy or seizure.
| 23 | | (k) (Blank).
| 24 | | (k-5) If the court determines that any property held by a | 25 | | third party respondent is wages pursuant to Section 12-801, the | 26 | | court shall proceed as if a wage deduction proceeding had been |
| | | HB5434 Enrolled | - 15 - | LRB097 16836 AJO 62018 b |
|
| 1 | | filed and proceed to enter such necessary and proper orders as | 2 | | would have been entered in a wage deduction proceeding | 3 | | including but not limited to the granting of the statutory | 4 | | exemptions allowed by Section 12-803 and all other remedies | 5 | | allowed plaintiff and defendant pursuant to Part 8 of Article | 6 | | 12 of this Act.
| 7 | | (k-10) If a creditor discovers personal property of the | 8 | | judgment debtor that is subject to the lien of a citation to | 9 | | discover assets, the creditor may have the court impress a lien | 10 | | against a specific item of personal property, including a | 11 | | beneficial interest in a land trust. The lien survives the | 12 | | termination of the citation proceedings and remains as a lien | 13 | | against the personal property in the same manner that a | 14 | | judgment lien recorded against real property pursuant to | 15 | | Section 12-101 remains a lien on real property. If the judgment | 16 | | is revived before dormancy, the lien shall remain. A lien | 17 | | against personal property may, but need not, be recorded in the | 18 | | office of the recorder or filed as an informational filing | 19 | | pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code. | 20 | | (l) At any citation hearing at which the judgment debtor | 21 | | appears and seeks
a declaration that certain of his or her | 22 | | income or assets are exempt, the court
shall proceed to | 23 | | determine whether the property which the judgment debtor
| 24 | | declares to be exempt is exempt from judgment. At any time | 25 | | before the return
date specified on the citation, the judgment | 26 | | debtor may request, in writing, a
hearing to declare exempt |
| | | HB5434 Enrolled | - 16 - | LRB097 16836 AJO 62018 b |
|
| 1 | | certain income and assets by notifying the clerk of
the court | 2 | | before that time, using forms as may be provided by the clerk | 3 | | of the
court. The clerk of the court will obtain a prompt | 4 | | hearing date from the
court and will provide the necessary | 5 | | forms that must be prepared by the
judgment debtor or the | 6 | | attorney for the judgment debtor and sent to the
judgment | 7 | | creditor, or the judgment creditor's attorney, regarding the | 8 | | time and
location of the hearing. This notice may be sent by | 9 | | regular first class mail.
At the hearing, the court shall | 10 | | immediately, unless for good cause shown that
the hearing is to | 11 | | be continued, shall proceed to determine whether the property
| 12 | | which the judgment debtor declares to be exempt is exempt from | 13 | | judgment. The
restraining provisions of subsection (f) shall | 14 | | not apply to any property
determined by the court to be exempt.
| 15 | | (m) The judgment or balance due on the judgment becomes a | 16 | | lien when a
citation is served in accordance with subsection | 17 | | (a) of this Section. The lien
binds nonexempt personal | 18 | | property, including money, choses in action, and
effects of the | 19 | | judgment debtor as follows:
| 20 | | (1) When the citation is directed against the judgment | 21 | | debtor, upon all
personal property belonging to the | 22 | | judgment debtor in the possession or control
of the | 23 | | judgment debtor or which may thereafter be acquired or come | 24 | | due to the
judgment debtor to the time of the disposition | 25 | | of the citation.
| 26 | | (2) When the citation is directed against a third |
| | | HB5434 Enrolled | - 17 - | LRB097 16836 AJO 62018 b |
|
| 1 | | party, upon all personal
property belonging to the judgment | 2 | | debtor in the possession or control of the
third party or | 3 | | which thereafter may be acquired or come due the judgment | 4 | | debtor
and comes into the possession or control of the | 5 | | third party to the time of the
disposition of the citation.
| 6 | | The lien established under this Section does not affect the | 7 | | rights of
citation respondents in property prior to the service | 8 | | of the citation upon them
and does not affect the rights of | 9 | | bona fide purchasers or lenders without
notice of the citation. | 10 | | The lien is effective for the period specified by
Supreme Court | 11 | | Rule.
| 12 | | This subsection (m), as added by Public Act 88-48, is a | 13 | | declaration of
existing law.
| 14 | | (n) If any provision of this Act or its application to any | 15 | | person or
circumstance is held invalid, the invalidity of that | 16 | | provision or application
does not affect the provisions or | 17 | | applications of the Act that can be given
effect without the | 18 | | invalid provision or application.
