(735 ILCS 5/5-125) (from Ch. 110, par. 5-125)
Sec. 5-125.
Enforcement of fee bill.
In all cases where either party
is adjudged to pay
costs before final judgment, by reason of setting aside a voluntary
dismissal, a dismissal for want of prosecution or a default, or the
granting of a continuance or new trial, or otherwise, and in all cases
where there is security for costs, or attorney liable for costs, or an
action brought to the use of another, and the plaintiff is
adjudged to pay the costs, either before or upon final judgment, it
shall be lawful for the clerk to prepare and tax a bill of costs so
adjudged to be paid, against the party adjudged to pay the same, and
against his or her security for costs, or other person liable for the payment
thereof, or either of them, and certify the same under the seal of the
court, which being delivered to the sheriff of the proper county, the sheriff
shall demand payment from the person therein charged; if payment is
not made accordingly, within 30 days after such demand, the
sheriff shall levy the same on the goods and chattels, lands and
tenements of the person so chargeable, and proceed therein in the same manner
as judgments for the payment of money are enforced.
