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.

(420 ILCS 56/50)

Sec. 50.

Public nuisance; injunctive
relief.

  The conducting of any business or the carrying on of activities within
a laser installation without registering a laser installation, without registering a temporary laser display operator, without providing notification required for a temporary laser display, or without
complying
with the
provisions of this Act and any rules adopted by the Agency under this Act is declared to be
inimical
to
the public welfare and public safety and to constitute a public nuisance.  It
is the
duty of the Attorney General, upon the request of the Agency, to bring
an action in the name of the People of the State of Illinois to enjoin a laser installation operator or temporary laser display 
operator from unlawfully engaging in the business or activity conducted
within the laser installation until the laser installation operator or temporary laser display operator complies
with
the
provisions of this Act. This injunctive remedy shall be in addition to, and
not in lieu of, any criminal penalty provided in this Act.
