(225 ILCS 447/45-20)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2029)
Sec. 45-20. Summary suspension of a license. The Secretary
may summarily suspend a license without a hearing,
simultaneously with the initiation of the procedure for a
hearing provided for in this Act, if the Secretary finds that the public interest, safety, or welfare requires such emergency action. If the Secretary summarily
suspends a license without a hearing, a
hearing by the Department shall be held within 30 days after
the suspension has occurred. The suspended licensee may seek a
continuance of the hearing, during which time the suspension
shall remain in effect. The proceeding shall be concluded
without appreciable delay. If the Department does not hold a
hearing within 30 days after the date of suspension and the suspended licensee did not seek a continuance, the
licensee's license shall be automatically reinstated.
