Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
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.
225 ILCS 37/65
(225 ILCS 37/65)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2029)
Sec. 65. Investigation; notice; hearing. The Department may investigate
the actions of an applicant or a person or persons holding or claiming to
hold a license. Before refusing to issue, refusing to renew, or taking any
disciplinary action regarding a license, the Department shall, at least 30 days
before the date set for the hearing, notify in writing the applicant for, or
holder of, a license of the nature of any charges and that a hearing will be
held on a date designated. The Department shall direct the applicant or
licensee to file a written answer with the Board under oath within 20 days
after the service of the notice and inform the applicant or licensee that
failure to file an answer shall result in default being taken against the
applicant or licensee and that the license may be suspended, revoked, or placed
on probationary status, or that other disciplinary action may be taken,
including limiting the scope, nature, or extent of practice, as the Secretary
may
consider proper. Written notice may be served by personal delivery, mail, or email to the applicant or licensee at his or her address of record or email address of record. If the person fails to file an answer after
receiving notice, his or her license or certificate may, in the discretion of
the Department, be suspended, revoked, or placed on probationary
status or the Department may take any disciplinary action considered proper,
including
limiting the scope, nature, or extent of the person's practice or the
imposition of a fine, without a hearing, if the act or acts charged constitute
sufficient grounds for such action under this Act. At the time and place fixed
in the notice, the Board shall proceed to hear the charges and the parties or
their counsel shall be accorded ample opportunity to present statements,
testimony, evidence, and arguments as may be pertinent to the charges or to
their
defense. The Board may continue a hearing from time to time.
