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.

210 ILCS 125/19

(210 ILCS 125/19) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 1219)

Sec. 19.

The Director shall make findings of fact in such hearing, and the
Director shall render his decision within 30 days after the termination of
the hearing, unless additional time is required by him for a proper
disposition of the matter. When the hearing has been conducted by a Hearing
Officer, the Director shall review the findings of fact and recommendations
of the Hearing Officer, and the transcribed record if a party has requested
and paid for such record before rendering a decision. It shall be the duty
of the Director to forward a copy of his decision by registered or
certified mail, to the owner, operator, licensee or applicant within 5 days
of rendition of such decision. Technical errors in the proceeding before
the Director or Hearing Officer or their failure to observe the technical
rules of evidence shall not be grounds for the reversal of any
administrative decision unless it appears to the court that such error or
failure materially affects the rights of any party and results in
substantial injustice to him.
