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.

735 ILCS 5/12-654

(735 ILCS 5/12-654) (from Ch. 110, par. 12-654)

Sec. 12-654. Stay.

(a) If the judgment debtor shows the circuit court that an appeal from
the foreign judgment is pending or will be taken, or that a stay of
execution has been granted, the court shall stay enforcement of the foreign
judgment until the appeal is concluded, the time for appeal expires, or the
stay of execution expires or is vacated, upon proof that the judgment
debtor has furnished the security for the satisfaction of the judgment
required by the state in which it was rendered.

(b) If the judgment debtor shows the circuit court any ground upon which
enforcement of a judgment of any circuit court for any county of this State
would be stayed, the court shall stay enforcement of the foreign judgment
for an appropriate period, upon requiring the same security for
satisfaction of the judgment which is required in this State.
