Illinois Compiled Statutes - Full Text

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.

    (55 ILCS 5/3-6042)
    Sec. 3-6042. Retiring employee; purchase of service firearm and badge. Each Sheriff shall establish a program to allow an employee of the Sheriff's Department who is honorably retiring in good standing to purchase either one or both of the following: (1) any badge previously issued to the employee by the Sheriff's Department; or (2) if the employee has a currently valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card, the service firearm issued or previously issued to the employee by the Sheriff's Department. The badge must be permanently and conspicuously marked in such a manner that the individual who possesses the badge is not mistaken for an actively serving law enforcement officer. The cost of the firearm shall be the replacement value of the firearm and not the firearm's fair market value.
