Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
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 80/12
(740 ILCS 80/12) (from Ch. 59, par. 12)
Sec. 12.
When any lands, tenements or hereditaments, or any rents or
profits out of the same, shall descend to any heir, or be devised to any
devisee, and the personal estate of the ancestor of such heir or devisor of
such devisee shall be insufficient to discharge the just demands against
such ancestor, or devisor's estate, such heir or devisee shall be liable to
the creditor of their ancestor or devisor to the full amount of the lands,
tenements or hereditaments, or rents and profits out of the same, as may
descend or be devised to the said heir or devisee; and in all cases where
any heir or devisee shall be liable to pay the debts of his executor or
devisor, in regard of any lands, tenements or hereditaments, or any rent or
profit arising out of the same, descending or being devised to him, and
shall sell, alien or make over the same before any action brought, or
process sued out against him, such heir at law or devisee shall be
answerable for such debts to the value of the said lands, tenements and
hereditaments, rents or profits so by him aliened or made over; and
executions may be taken out upon any judgment so obtained against such heir
or devisee, to the value of the said lands, tenements and hereditaments,
rents and profits, out of the same, as if the same were his own proper
debts, saving and excepting that the lands and tenements, rents and
profits, by him bona fide aliened, before the action brought, shall not be
liable to such execution.
