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.

(735 ILCS 5/19-123) (from Ch. 110, par. 19-123)

Sec. 19-123. Judgment against plaintiff.

If the plaintiff in an action
of replevin obtains an order for replevin and the right of property is adjudged against the plaintiff, judgment shall be entered
for a return of the property if such property has been delivered
to the plaintiff, and damages for the use thereof from the time it was
taken until a return thereof is made, unless the plaintiff shall,
in the meantime, have become entitled to the possession of the property,
in which event judgment may be entered against the plaintiff for costs and
such damage as the
defendant has sustained; or if the property was held for the
payment of any money, the judgment may be in the alternative that the
plaintiff pay the amount for which the same was rightfully held, with
proper damages, within a given time, or make return of the property in
case such property was delivered to the plaintiff.
