Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

Every licensee shall appoint, in writing, the Director of Financial
Institutions (hereinafter called Director) and his successors in office or
any official who shall hereafter be charged with the administration of this
Act, as attorney-in-fact upon whom all lawful process against such licensee
may be served with the same legal force and validity as if served on such
licensee. A copy of such written appointment, duly certified, shall be

any liability remains outstanding in this State against the licensee. When

the Director shall immediately notify the licensee by registered mail,
enclosing the summons and specifying the hour and day of service.
