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.
(225 ILCS 15/27.2)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2027)
Sec. 27.2. Cease and desist order. If any person violates the provisions
of this Act,
the Secretary, in the name of the People of the State of Illinois, through the
Attorney General or the State's Attorney of the county in which the violation
is
alleged to have occurred, may petition for an order enjoining the violation or
for an order enforcing compliance with this Act. Upon the filing of a verified
petition, the court with appropriate jurisdiction may issue a temporary
restraining order, without notice or bond, and may preliminarily and
permanently enjoin the violation. If it is established that the person has
violated or is violating the injunction, the court may punish the offender for
contempt of court. Proceedings under this Section are in addition to, and not
in lieu of, all other remedies and penalties provided by this Act.
Whenever, in the opinion of the Department, a person violates any provision
of this Act, the Department may issue a rule to show cause why an order to
cease and desist should not be entered against that person. The rule shall
clearly set forth the grounds relied upon by the Department and shall allow at
least 7 days from the date of the rule to file an answer satisfactory to the
Department. Failure to answer to the satisfaction of the Department shall
cause an order to cease and desist to be issued.
