(110 ILCS 115/2) (from Ch. 144, par. 253)

Sec. 2. Enforcement; violations. Whenever the the Attorney General of this State has reason to believe that any person or retail store operated by a State institution of higher learning or operated on property held or leased for the use of the institution is using, has used, or is about to use any method, act or practice in violation of this Act and that proceedings would be in the public interest, he may bring an action in the name of the State against any person or retail store operated by a State institution of higher learning or operated on property held or leased for the use of the institution to restrain and prevent any violation of this Act. In the enforcement of this Act, the Attorney General may accept an assurance of discontinuance of any act or practice deemed in violation of this Act from any person or retail store operated by a State institution of higher learning or operated on property held or leased for the use of the institution engaging in, or that has engaged in, that act or practice. Failure to perform the terms of any such assurance constitutes prima facie proof of a violation of this Act.
