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.

(815 ILCS 705/28) (from Ch. 121 1/2, par. 1728)

Sec. 28.

No other civil liability.

Except as explicitly
provided in this Act, no civil liability in favor of any person
shall arise against any person by implication from or as a
result of the violation of any provision of this Act.  Nothing
in this Act shall limit any liability which may exist by virtue
of any other statute or under common law if this Act were not
in effect.  Prior law exclusively governs all suits, actions,
prosecutions, or proceedings which are pending or may be initiated
on the basis of facts or circumstances occurring before the
effective date of this Act.
