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 30/100) (from Ch. 111, par. 8401-100)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2028)
Sec. 100. Injunctions; cease and desist orders.
(a) If any person violates a provision of this Act, the Secretary
may, in the name of the People of the State of Illinois through
the Attorney General of the State of Illinois or the State's Attorney of the county in which the violation is alleged to have occurred, 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 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 shall be in addition
to, and not in lieu of, all other remedies and penalties provided by this Act.
(b) If any person provides, offers to provide, attempts to provide or
holds himself or herself out as qualified, licensed, or able to provide medical nutrition therapy or holds oneself out as licensed or qualified to practice dietetics and nutrition or holds oneself out as a licensed dietitian nutritionist or uses words or letters in connection with the person's name in violation of Section 80 without having a valid license under
this Act, then any licensee, any interested party, or any person injured
thereby may, in addition to the Secretary, petition for relief as provided
in subsection (a) of this Section.
(c) Whenever in the opinion of the Department any person violates any
provision of this Act, the Department may issue a rule to show cause why an
order to cease and desist should be entered against him or her. The rule shall
clearly set forth the grounds relied upon by the Department and shall provide
a period of 7 days from the date of the rule to file an answer to the
satisfaction of the Department. Failure to answer to the satisfaction of
the Department shall cause an order to cease and desist to be issued
immediately.
