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 55/90) (from Ch. 111, par. 8351-90)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2027)
Sec. 90. Violations; injunctions; cease and desist order.
(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, petition for an order enjoining the
violation or for an order enforcing compliance with this Act. Upon the
filing of a verified petition in court, 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 are in addition to,
and not in lieu of, all other remedies and penalties provided by this Act.
(b) If any person practices as a marriage and family therapist or an
associate marriage and family therapist or
holds himself or herself out as such 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 not 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.
