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.
(750 ILCS 46/615) Sec. 615. Consequences of declining genetic testing. (a) Subject to the limitations of Section 401, an order for genetic testing is enforceable through a proceeding for adjudication of contempt. (b) If an individual whose parentage is being determined declines to submit to genetic testing ordered by the court or administrative agency, the court or administrative agency may adjudicate parentage contrary to the position of that individual. (c) Genetic testing of the woman or person who gave birth to the child is not a condition precedent to genetically testing the child and a person whose parentage is being determined. If the woman or person who gave birth to the child is unavailable or declines to submit to genetic testing, the court or administrative agency may order the genetic testing of the child and every person whose parentage is being adjudicated.
