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.

205 ILCS 657/37

    (205 ILCS 657/37)
    (Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2026)
    Sec. 37. Display of disclosure notice.
    (a) Each authorized seller shall conspicuously display a disclosure notice supplied by the licensee; each licensee that transmits money directly shall also conspicuously display a disclosure notice.
    (b) The disclosure notice shall contain the following information:
        (1) In the case of an authorized seller only, the
    
name of the authorized seller's licensee issuing the disclosure notice.
        (2) A toll-free telephone number for the Department
    
of Financial Institutions which will provide customer support for suspected violations of this Act.
        (3) A statement that the authorization may be revoked
    
at any time by the licensee.
    (c) A licensee shall notify the Department within 30 days when an authorized seller is no longer an authorized seller for the licensee. An authorized seller who has been terminated shall remove the disclosure notice from the premises within 10 business days after such termination. A terminated authorized seller who wilfully and knowingly refuses to remove the disclosure notice within 10 business days of termination commits a Class B misdemeanor.
    (d) If a customer of a former authorized seller detrimentally relies on a disclosure notice that was not removed, the former authorized seller shall be civilly liable if the customer proves: (1) that the entity possessed the disclosure notice beyond 10 business days from the termination of authorization by the licensee, (2) that the entity held itself out as an authorized seller, without informing the customer that the seller was no longer authorized by the licensee, (3) that the customer justifiably relied upon the conspicuously displayed disclosure notice formerly provided by the licensee, and (4) that the entity engaged in the business of transmitting money after its termination as an authorized seller.
    (e) As used in this Section, "civil liability" means liability for actual loss, reasonable attorney's fees, and costs.
