Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
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.

(35 ILCS 143/10-58)
Sec. 10-58. Sale of forfeited tobacco products or vending devices.
(a) When any tobacco products or any vending devices are
declared forfeited to the State by the Department, as provided in Section
10-55, and when all proceedings for the judicial review of the
Department's decision have terminated, the Department shall, to the extent that
its decision is sustained on review, sell the property for the best price
obtainable and shall forthwith pay over the proceeds of the sale to the State
Treasurer. If the value of the property to be sold at any one time is $500 or
more, however, the property shall be sold only to the highest and best bidder
on terms and conditions, and on open competitive bidding after public
advertisement, in a manner and for terms as the Department, by rule,
may prescribe.
(b) If no complaint for review, as provided in Section 12 of the Retailers'
Occupation Tax Act, has been filed within the time required by Law, and if no stay order has been entered under that
Law, the Department shall proceed to destroy, maintain and use in an undercover capacity, or sell the property for the best price
obtainable and shall forthwith pay over the proceeds of the sale to the State
Treasurer. If the value of the property to be sold at any one time is $500 or
more, however, the property shall be sold only to the highest and best bidder
on terms and conditions, and on open competitive bidding after public
advertisement, in a manner and for terms as the Department, by rule, may
prescribe.
(c) Upon making a sale of tobacco products as provided in this Section, the
Department shall affix a distinctive stamp to each of the tobacco products so
sold indicating that they are sold under this Section.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any tobacco products seized under this
Act may, at the discretion of the Director of Revenue, be distributed to any
eleemosynary institution within the State of Illinois.
