(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2030)
Sec. 25. Injunction; cease and desist order.
(a) If any person or entity violates the provisions of this Act, the Secretary, in the name of the People of the State of Illinois, through the
Attorney General of the State of Illinois or the State's Attorney of the county
in which the violation is alleged to have occurred, may petition the circuit
court for an order enjoining such violation or for an order enforcing
compliance with this Act. Upon the filing of a verified petition, the court
may issue a temporary restraining order, without bond, and may preliminarily
and permanently enjoin such violation. If it is established that such person or
other entity has violated or is violating the injunction, the court may punish
the offender for contempt of court. Proceedings under this Section shall be in

this Act.

(c) (Blank)
(d) Whenever in the opinion of the Department, any person or entity
violates any provision of this Act, the Department may issue a notice to show
cause why an order to cease and desist should not be entered against that
person or entity. The rule shall clearly set forth the grounds relied
upon by the Department and shall provide a period of 7 days from the date of
the rule to file an answer to the satisfaction of the Department. Failure to
answer to the satisfaction of the Department shall cause an order to cease and
desist to be issued immediately.
