Before revocation of a certificate of registration, the Department shall, within 90 days after noncompliance and at least 7 days prior to the date of the hearing, give the operator or booking intermediary so accused notice in writing of the charge against him or her, and on the date designated shall conduct a hearing upon this matter. The lapse of the 90-day period shall not preclude the Department from conducting revocation proceedings at a later date if necessary. Any hearing held under this Section shall be conducted by the Director or by any officer or employee of the Department designated in writing by the Director.

b)The Department may revoke a certificate of registration for the reasons set forth in Section 2505-380 of the Department of Revenue Law.

The Department may procure by its subpoena the attendance of witnesses and, by its subpoena duces tecum, the production of relevant books and papers. Any circuit court, upon application of the operator, booking intermediary, or the Department, may, by order duly entered, require the attendance of witnesses and the production of relevant books and papers before the Department in any hearing relating to the revocation of certificates of registration. Upon refusal or neglect to obey the order of the court, the court may compel obedience to the order by proceedings for contempt.

d)The Department may, by application to any circuit court, obtain an injunction requiring any person who engages in business as an operator or booking intermediary under the Act to obtain a certificate of registration. Upon refusal or neglect to obey the order of the court, the court may compel obedience by proceedings for contempt. [35 ILCS 525/10-35 ]
