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.

(505 ILCS 30/11) (from Ch. 56 1/2, par. 66.11)

Sec. 11.

Detained commercial feeds.

(a) "Withdrawal from distribution" orders: When the Director or his
authorized agent has reasonable cause to believe any lot of commercial feed
is being distributed in violation of any of the provisions of this Act or
of any of the prescribed regulations under this Act, he may issue and
enforce a written or printed "withdrawal from distribution" order, warning
the registrant or distributor not to dispose of the lot of commercial feed
in any manner until written permission is given by the Director or the
Court. The Director shall release the lot of commercial feed so withdrawn
when the provisions and regulations have been complied with. If compliance
is not obtained within 30 days, the Director may begin, or upon request of
the distributor or registrant shall begin, proceedings for condemnation.

(b) Condemnation and confiscation: Any lot of commercial feed not in
compliance with the provisions and regulations shall be subject to seizure
on complaint of the Director to a court of competent jurisdiction in the
county in which the commercial feed is located. In the event the court
finds the commercial feed to be in violation of this Act and orders
the condemnation of the commercial feed, it shall be disposed of in any
manner consistent with the quality of the commercial feed and the laws of
the State: Provided, that in no instance shall the disposition of the
commercial feed be ordered by the court without first giving the claimant
an opportunity to apply to the court for release of the commercial feed or
for permission to process or re-label the commercial feed to bring it into
compliance with this Act.
