Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Code of Civil Procedure. Provides that if a lease contains the required notice, no additional termination notice or demand for possession is required to initiate a forcible entry and detainer action based on the use of the premises for criminal activity, however, a notice specifying the lease violations shall mailed to the lessee and posted on the premises. Provides that the office of the State's Attorney or the corporation counsel of the municipality in which the property is located shall give a written response within 3 days after receiving a lessor's request for the office to accept an assignment of the lessor's right to bring a forcible entry and detainer action. Provides that the owner or lessor remains liable for the court cost of the eviction and fees to the sheriff for execution of an order for possession (instead of liable for the cost of eviction) whether or not the right to bring the forcible entry and detainer action has been assigned. Deletes language stating that this provision shall not be construed to diminish the lessor's rights to terminate a lease for other lawful reasons or under the lease. Makes other changes.
