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.

(820 ILCS 405/2205) (from Ch. 48, par. 685)

Sec. 2205.

Judicial review of decisions on contributions.

The Circuit Court of the county wherein the hearing provided for in
Sections 2200 and 2201 was held shall have power to review the final
administrative decisions of the Director rendered pursuant to those
Sections. The provisions of the Administrative Review Law, and all
amendments and modifications thereof, and the rules adopted pursuant
thereto, shall apply to and govern all proceedings for the judicial
review of such final administrative decisions of the Director. The term
"administrative decision" is defined as in Section 3-101 of the Code of
Civil Procedure. Such review
proceedings shall be given
precedence over all other civil cases except cases arising under the
Workers' Compensation Act of this State.

The Director shall not be required to certify the record to the
Circuit Court unless the party commencing such proceedings for review
shall pay to the Director the cost of certification of the record as
provided in Section 2200. The Director or the Commissioner of
Unemployment Compensation, in the absence of the Director, upon receipt
of such payment, shall prepare and certify to the court a true and
correct typewritten copy of all matters contained in such record.

The Clerk of any court rendering a decision affecting a decision of
the Director shall promptly furnish the Director with a copy of such
court's decision, without charge, and the Director shall enter an order
in accordance with such decision.
