(705 ILCS 405/5-735)
Sec. 5-735. 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 of the order 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 those persons and setting forth its terms and requirements. The
presentation of the certificate to any peace officer authorizes the officer to
take
into custody a person charged with violating the terms of the order of
protection, to bring the person before the court and, within the limits of the officer's legal authority as a peace officer, otherwise to aid in securing the
protection the order is intended to afford.
