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.
(750 ILCS 60/203) (from Ch. 40, par. 2312-3)
Sec. 203.
Pleading; non-disclosure of address; non-disclosure of
schools.
(a) A petition for an
order of protection shall be in writing and verified or accompanied by
affidavit
and shall allege that petitioner has been abused by respondent, who is a
family or household member.
The petition shall further set forth whether there is any other pending
action between the parties. During the pendency of this proceeding, each
party has a continuing duty to inform the court of any subsequent
proceeding for an order of protection in this or any other state.
(b) If the petition states that disclosure of petitioner's
address would risk abuse of petitioner or any member of petitioner's
family or household
or reveal the confidential address of a shelter for domestic violence victims,
that address may be omitted from all documents filed with the court. If
disclosure is necessary to determine jurisdiction or consider any venue issue,
it shall be made orally and in camera.
If petitioner has not disclosed an address under this subsection,
petitioner shall designate an alternative address at which respondent may
serve notice of any motions.
(c) If the petitioner is seeking to have a child protected by the order of
protection,
and if that child is enrolled in any day-care facility, pre-school,
pre-kindergarten, private
school, public school district, college, or university, the petitioner may
provide the name
and address of the day-care facility, pre-school, pre-kindergarten, private
school, public
school district, college, or university to the court. However, if the petition
states that
disclosure of this information would risk abuse to petitioner or to the child
protected
under the order, this information may be omitted from all documents filed with
the court.
