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.
(215 ILCS 5/809.1)
Sec. 809.1.
Arbitration.
In the event of a dispute between a policyholder and an insurer as to whether
a residence or commercial building covered by mine subsidence insurance has
been damaged by mine subsidence, a policyholder shall have the right to submit
that dispute to arbitration in accordance with this Section. No policyholder
shall have the right under this Section to submit to arbitration any issue
regarding the amount of loss or damage caused to a residence or commercial
building by mine subsidence.
Arbitration may be initiated only after the insurer has made a decision that
the residence or commercial building covered by mine subsidence insurance was
not damaged by mine subsidence and so notified the policyholder in writing,
accompanied by a notice informing the policyholder of the policyholder's right
to arbitration and containing specific reference to this Section. Within 60
days after receipt by the policyholder of the notification, the policyholder
may initiate arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of
the American Arbitration Association, as then in effect. All costs of the
arbitration shall be borne by the losing party. Appeals from the decision of
the arbitrators shall be in accordance with the Uniform Arbitration Act as in
effect in Illinois.
