(225 ILCS 454/20-25)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2030)
Sec. 20-25. Returned checks and dishonored credit card charges; fees. Any person who (1) 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; or (2) presents a credit or debit card for payment that is invalid or expired or against which charges by the Department are declined or dishonored, in addition
to the amount
already owed to the Department, a fee of $50. The Department
shall notify the person that payment of 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 person has failed to submit the
necessary remittance, the Department
shall automatically revoke the license or deny the application, without hearing. If, after revocation
or denial, the person seeks a license, the person shall apply to the Department
for restoration or
issuance of the license and pay all fees and fines due 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 this
application. The Secretary may waive the fees due under this Section in
individual cases
where the Secretary finds that the fees would be unreasonable or
unnecessarily burdensome.
