(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2027)
Sec. 21. Administrative Review Law. All final
administrative decisions of the Department are subject to judicial review
under the Administrative Review Law and its rules. The term
"administrative decision" is defined as in Section 3-101 of the Code of Civil
Procedure.
Proceedings for judicial review shall be commenced in the circuit
court of the county in which the party applying for review resides, but if
the party is not a resident of this State, the venue shall be in Sangamon
County.
The Department shall not be required to certify any record to the court
or file any answer in court or otherwise appear in any court in a judicial
review proceeding, unless there is filed in the court with the complaint a
receipt from the Department acknowledging payment of the costs of
furnishing and certifying the record. Exhibits shall be
certified without cost. Failure on the part of the plaintiff to file a
receipt in court shall be grounds for dismissal of the action. During the
pendency and hearing of any and all judicial proceedings incident to a
disciplinary action, any sanctions imposed upon the registrant by the
Department shall remain in full force and effect.
