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.

(740 ILCS 10/7.6) (from Ch. 38, par. 60-7.6)

Sec. 7.6.

In the event a witness served with a subpoena by the Attorney
General
under this Act fails or refuses to obey same or produce documentary
material or interrogatory answers as provided herein, or to give testimony,
relevant or material, to
the investigation being conducted, the Attorney General may petition the
Circuit Court of Sangamon or Cook County, or the county wherein the witness
resides for an order requiring said witness to attend and testify or
produce the documentary material or interrogatory answers demanded.
The court's order shall require the witness to attend and testify or produce
the documentary material or interrogatory answers, or a combination thereof, by
a specified date, and shall further provide a date thereafter on which the
witness shall show cause in court why he or she should not be held in
contempt of
court if he or she fails to comply.  The Attorney General shall cause the
order to be
served upon the witness in the manner provided for service of subpoenas in
Section 7.3 of this Act.  Service of the order shall constitute service of
process, and no other form of process is necessary to submit the witness to
the jurisdiction of the court and to require compliance with the court order.
