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 57/90)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2027)
Sec. 90. Violations; injunction; 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 or the State's Attorney in the county in which the
offense occurs, 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 shall be in addition to, and not
in lieu of, all other remedies and penalties provided by this Act.
(b) If any person practices as a
massage
therapist
or holds himself or herself out as a massage therapist
without being licensed under the provisions of this Act,
then the Secretary, any licensed massage therapist, any
interested party, or any person injured thereby may
petition for relief as provided in subsection (a) of this
Section or may apply to the circuit court of the county in which the
violation or some part thereof occurred, or in which the person complained
of has his or her principal place of business or resides, to prevent the
violation. The court has jurisdiction to enforce obedience by injunction or
by other process restricting the person complained of from further
violation and enjoining upon him or her obedience.
(c) 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 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.
