(705 ILCS 405/4-24) (from Ch. 37, par. 804-24)
Sec. 4-24. Enforcement of orders of protective supervision or of protection. (1) Orders of protective supervision and orders of protection may be
enforced by citation to show cause for contempt of court by reason of any
violation thereof and, where protection of the welfare of the minor so
requires, by the issuance of a warrant to take the alleged violator into
custody and bring the minor before the court.
(2) In any case where an order of protection has been entered, the clerk
of the court may issue to the petitioner, to the minor or to any other
person affected by the order a certificate stating that an order of
protection has been made by the court concerning such persons and setting
forth its terms and requirements. The presentation of the certificate to
any peace officer authorizes the peace officer to take into custody a person charged with
violating the terms of the order of protection, to bring such person before
the court and, within the limits of the peace officer's legal authority, otherwise to aid in securing the protection the order is intended
to afford.
