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.

    Sec. 12.50. Grounds for judicial dissolution in actions by nonshareholders.
    (a) A Circuit Court may dissolve a corporation:
        (1) In an action by the Attorney General, if it is
    
established that:
            (i) The corporation filed its articles of
        
incorporation through fraud; or
            (ii) The corporation has continued to exceed or
        
abuse the authority conferred upon it by law, or has continued to violate the law, after notice of the same has been given to such corporation, either personally or by registered mail; or
            (iii) Any interrogatory propounded by the
        
Secretary of State to the corporation, its officers or directors, as provided in this Act, has been answered falsely or has not been answered fully within 30 days after the mailing of such interrogatories by the Secretary of State or within such extension of time as shall have been authorized by the Secretary of State.
        (2) In an action by a creditor, if it is established
    
that:
            (i) The creditor's claim has been reduced to
        
judgment, a copy of the judgment has been returned unsatisfied, and the corporation is insolvent; or
            (ii) The corporation has admitted in writing that
        
the creditor's claim is due and owing, and the corporation is insolvent.
        (3) In an action by the corporation to dissolve under
    
court supervision, if it is established that dissolution is reasonably necessary because the business of the corporation can no longer be conducted to the general advantage of its shareholders.
    (b) As an alternative to dissolution, the court may order any of the other remedies contained in subsection (b) of Section 12.55.
