1 AN ACT to amend the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of
2 1986 by changing Sections 217 and 222.
3 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
4 represented in the General Assembly:
5 Section 5. The Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963 is
6 amended by changing Sections 112A-17, 112A-22, and 112A-28 as
7 follows:
8 (725 ILCS 5/112A-17) (from Ch. 38, par. 112A-17)
9 Sec. 112A-17. Emergency order of protection.
10 (a) Prerequisites. An emergency order of protection
11 shall issue if petitioner satisfies the requirements of this
12 subsection for one or more of the requested remedies. For
13 each remedy requested, petitioner shall establish that:
14 (1) The court has jurisdiction under Section
15 112A-9;
16 (2) The requirements of Section 112A-14 are
17 satisfied; and
18 (3) There is good cause to grant the remedy,
19 regardless of prior service of process or of notice upon
20 the respondent, because:
21 (i) For the remedies of "prohibition of abuse"
22 described in Section 112A-14(b)(1), "stay away order
23 and additional prohibitions" described in Section
24 112A-14(b)(3), "removal or concealment of minor
25 child" described in Section 112A-14(b)(8), "order to
26 appear" described in Section 112A-14(b)(9),
27 "physical care and possession of the minor child"
28 described in Section 112A-14(b)(5), "protection of
29 property" described in Section 112A-14(b)(11),
30 "prohibition of entry" described in Section
31 112A-14(b)(14), "prohibition of access to records"
HB1589 Engrossed -2- LRB9004567SMdv
1 described in Section 112A-14(b)(15), and "injunctive
2 relief" described in Section 112A-14(b)(16), the
3 harm which that remedy is intended to prevent would
4 be likely to occur if the respondent were given any
5 prior notice, or greater notice than was actually
6 given, of the petitioner's efforts to obtain
7 judicial relief;
8 (ii) For the remedy of "grant of exclusive
9 possession of residence" described in Section
10 112A-14(b)(2), the immediate danger of further abuse
11 of petitioner by respondent, if petitioner chooses
12 or had chosen to remain in the residence or
13 household while respondent was given any prior
14 notice or greater notice than was actually given of
15 petitioner's efforts to obtain judicial relief,
16 outweighs the hardships to respondent of an
17 emergency order granting petitioner exclusive
18 possession of the residence or household. This
19 remedy shall not be denied because petitioner has or
20 could obtain temporary shelter elsewhere while prior
21 notice is given to respondent, unless the hardships
22 to respondent from exclusion from the home
23 substantially outweigh those to petitioner.
24 (iii) For the remedy of "possession of
25 personal property" described in Section
26 112A-14(b)(10), improper disposition of the personal
27 property would be likely to occur if respondent were
28 given any prior notice, or greater notice than was
29 actually given, of petitioner's efforts to obtain
30 judicial relief, or petitioner has an immediate and
31 pressing need for possession of that property.
32 An emergency order may not include the counseling, legal
33 custody, payment of support or monetary compensation
34 remedies.
HB1589 Engrossed -3- LRB9004567SMdv
1 (b) Appearance by respondent. If respondent appears in
2 court for this hearing for an emergency order, he or she may
3 elect to file a general appearance and testify. Any
4 resulting order may be an emergency order, governed by this
5 Section. Notwithstanding the requirements of this Section,
6 if all requirements of Section 112A-18 have been met, the
7 Court may issue a 30-day interim order.
8 (c) Emergency orders: court holidays and evenings.
9 (1) Prerequisites. When the court is unavailable
10 at the close of business, the petitioner may file a
11 petition for a 21-day emergency order before any
12 available circuit judge or associate judge who may grant
13 relief under this Article. If the judge finds that there
14 is an immediate and present danger of abuse to petitioner
15 and that petitioner has satisfied the prerequisites set
16 forth in subsection (a) of Section 112A-17, that judge
17 may issue an emergency order of protection.
18 (1.5) Issuance of order. The chief judge of the
19 circuit court shall designate for each county in the
20 circuit at least one judge to be reasonably available to
21 issue orally, by telephone, by facsimile, or otherwise,
22 an emergency order of protection at all times, whether or
23 not the court is in session.
24 (2) Certification and transfer. Any order issued
25 under this Section and any documentation in support
26 thereof shall be certified on the next court day to the
27 appropriate court. The clerk of that court shall
28 immediately assign a case number, file the petition,
29 order and other documents with the court and enter the
30 order of record and file it with the sheriff for service,
31 in accordance with Section 112A-22. Filing the petition
32 shall commence proceedings for further relief, under
33 Section 112A-2. Failure to comply with the requirements
34 of this subsection shall not affect the validity of the

10 (750 ILCS 60/217) (from Ch. 40, par. 2312-17)
11 Sec. 217. Emergency order of protection.
12 (a) Prerequisites. An emergency order of protection

15 each remedy requested, petitioner shall establish that:
16 (1) The court has jurisdiction under Section 208;
17 (2) The requirements of Section 214 are satisfied;
18 and
19 (3) There is good cause to grant the remedy,
20 regardless of prior service of process or of notice upon
21 the respondent, because:
22 (i) For the remedies of "prohibition of
23 abuse" described in Section 214(b)(1), "stay away

26 child" described in Section 214(b)(8), "order to

14 petitioner's efforts to obtain judicial relief,
15 outweighs the hardships to respondent of an
16 emergency order granting petitioner exclusive
17 possession of the residence or household. This

22 substantially outweigh those to petitioner;
23 (iii) For the remedy of "possession of

13 an immediate and present danger of abuse to petitioner
14 and that petitioner has satisfied the prerequisites set
15 forth in subsection (a) of Section 217, that judge may
16 issue an emergency order of protection.
