Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
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.

state, and is absent therefrom for one year, without providing for the
maintenance and support of his or her family, or is imprisoned in the
penitentiary, the circuit court in the county where the husband or wife
so abandoned or, not confined, resides, may, on application by petition,
setting forth fully the facts, if the court is satisfied of the necessity
by the evidence, authorize him or her to manage, control, sell or incumber
the property of the other, as shall be necessary, in the judgment of the
court, for the support and maintenance of the family, and for the purpose
of paying debts of the other, or debts contracted for the support of the
family. Notice of such proceedings shall be given as in other civil actions,
and anything done under or by virtue of the order or judgment of the court,
shall be valid to the same extent as if the same were done by the party
owning the property.(Source: P.A. 84-1308.) (Text of Section after amendment by P.A. 104-40) Sec. 11.
