Sec. 2H.
No person may make any attempt, whether by mail, telephone,
personal contact, court action or by any other means, to collect an
obligation from the spouse of the obligor unless the spouse cosigned the
instrument evidencing the obligation or unless the obligation is in default
at least 30 days or unless the goods or services furnished to the obligor
and giving rise to the obligation were necessaries for which the spouse
would be liable to pay under statute or common law. A person who violates
this Section commits an unlawful practice within the meaning of this Act
and is guilty of a Class C misdemeanor.
