(35 ILCS 5/1403) (from Ch. 120, par. 14-1403)
Sec. 1403.
Substitution of Parties.
Whenever any proceeding provided by this Act is begun before the
Department, either by the Department or by a person subject to this Act,
and such person thereafter dies or becomes a person under legal disability
before such
proceeding is concluded, the legal representative of the deceased or
of the person under legal disability shall notify
the Department of such death or legal disability. The legal representative,
as such, shall
then be substituted
by the Department for such person. If the legal representative fails to
notify the Department of his appointment as such legal representative, the
Department may, upon its own motion, substitute such legal representative
in the proceeding pending before the Department for the person who died or
became under legal disability.
