Short description: 
VEH CD-RELOCATOR LIENS                                                     

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code.  Provides  that  vehicles  that      
   are  towed  or  relocated  at the request of the owner or operator (as      
   well as those towed or relocated because  they  are  abandoned,  lost,      
   stolen,  or  unclaimed)  are  subject  to  a  lien under the Labor and      
   Storage Lien (Small Amount) Act.  Provides that the provisions of that      
   Act regarding the maximum amount of the lien do  not  apply  to  liens      
   covered  by  the  Vehicle  Code provision.  Provides that with certain      
   enumerated exceptions, personal property in a  vehicle  subject  to  a      
   lien  under  the  Code provision is also subject to that lien.  Limits      
   the amounts of liens under the provision. Provides that a relocator or      
   other towing service  that  accepts  a  properly  signed  credit  card      
   receipt  becomes a holder in due course, and neither the holder of the      
   credit card nor the company that issued the credit card may refuse  to      
   pay  the  amount  charged, minus the processing charge assessed by the      
   credit card company. Effective immediately.                                 
          FISCAL NOTE (Office of the Illinois Courts)                          
          HB 1791 would have no fiscal impact on the judicial branch.          
          FISCAL NOTE (Department of Transportation)                           
          There will be no fiscal impact on this Department.
