Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

Sec. 2505-250. Compromising debts due to the State.

Under no
circumstances shall any officer or employee of the
Department compromise any debt due to this State, except in case
of actions of the Director after review by the board of appeals provided
for by Section 2505-505.
However, claims or accounts receivable of less than $1,000 may be written off
the
Department's records and cancelled by the Department without complying with
the provisions of Section 2 of the Uncollected State Claims Act when the
Department determines that
the cost of collecting the claim or account would exceed the
amount to be collected.
The Department shall submit to the Comptroller a list of all such claims
or accounts written off the Department's records.
