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.
(225 ILCS 310/4.5)

(a) Any person who holds himself or herself out to be
a registered interior designer without being registered under this Act shall, in
addition to any other penalty provided by law, pay a civil penalty to the
Department in an amount not to exceed $5,000 for each offense as determined
by the Department. The civil penalty shall be assessed by the Department
after a hearing is held in accordance with the provisions set forth in this
Act regarding the provision of a hearing for the discipline of a registrant.
(b) The Department has the authority and power to investigate any
illegal use of the title of registered interior designer.
(c) The civil penalty shall be paid within 60 days after the effective date
