Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
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 135/30) Sec. 30. Death investigation training; waiver for experience. (a) The Department, through the Board, shall conduct or approve a training program in death investigation for the training of coroners. Only coroners who successfully complete the training program may be assigned as lead investigators in a coroner's investigations. Satisfactory completion of the training program shall be evidenced by a certificate issued to the coroner by the Board. (b) The Department, through the Board, shall develop a process for waiver applications sent from a coroner's office for those coroners whose prior training and experience as a death or homicide investigator may qualify them for a waiver. The Department, upon the recommendation of the Board, may issue a waiver, based solely on the prior training and experience of a coroner as a death or homicide investigator. (c) This amendatory Act of the 104th General Assembly shall not affect the status of certifications or waivers issued by the Board prior to July 1, 2025. (Source: P.A. 104-2, eff. 7-1-25.) |
