Current through Public Act 103-1056
Section 225 ILCS 51/65 - [Section Scheduled to be Repealed 1/1/2028] Fees; returned checks

An entity who delivers a check or other payment to the Department that is returned to the Department unpaid by the financial institution upon which it is drawn shall pay to the Department, in addition to the amount already owed to the Department, a fine of $50. The fines imposed by this Section are in addition to any other discipline provided under this Act for unlicensed practice or practice on a nonrenewed license. The Department shall notify the entity that fees and fines shall be paid to the Department by certified check or money order within 30 calendar days of the notification. If, after the expiration of 30 days from the date of the notification, the entity has failed to submit the necessary remittance, the Department shall automatically terminate the license or deny the application without a hearing. If the entity seeks a license after termination or denial, the entity shall apply to the Department for restoration or issuance of the license and pay all fees and fines owed to the Department. The Department may establish a fee for the processing of an application for restoration of a license to pay all expenses of processing that application. The Secretary may waive the fines due under this Section in individual cases where the Secretary finds that the fines would be unreasonable or unnecessarily burdensome.
