(735 ILCS 5/2-1304) (from Ch. 110, par. 2-1304)
Sec. 2-1304.
Orders for liens and conveyances.
(a) Whenever, by any order, any party to an action is required to perform
any act other than the payment of money, or to refrain from performing any
act, the court may, in such order, provide that the same shall be a lien
upon the real or personal estate, or both, of such party until such order
is fully complied with; and such lien shall have the same force and effect,
and be subject to the same limitations and restrictions, as judgments for
the payment of money, including the time and manner when the same shall
take effect and the time and manner when the lien upon a revival thereof
shall take effect.
(b) Whenever an order is entered, directing the execution of any deed
or other writing, it shall be lawful for any judge of the court to execute
or for the court to direct the sheriff to execute such deed or other writing,
in case the parties under no disability fail to execute such deed or other
writing, in a time to be named in the order, or on behalf of minors or persons
under legal disability who have guardians; and the execution thereof shall
be valid in law to pass, release or extinguish the right, title and interest
of the party on whose behalf it is executed, as if executed by the party
in proper person, and he or she were under no disability; and whenever any
property is sold in open court, it shall be lawful for any judge to execute
a deed, certificate of sale or bill of sale or for the court to direct the
sheriff to execute a deed, certificate of sale or bill of sale to the purchaser
thereat and the execution thereof shall be valid in law to pass, release
or extinguish all right, title and interest of the parties to the action
with the same force and effect as though such sale had been held by the
sheriff pursuant to the court's order; and such deed or other writing, if
it relates to land, shall promptly after its execution by a judge or the
sheriff, be recorded in the recorder's office of the county wherein the
land is situated.
