1 AN ACT concerning counties.
2 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:
4 Section 5. The Counties Code is amended by changing
5 Section 3-8017 as follows:
6 (55 ILCS 5/3-8017) (from Ch. 34, par. 3-8017)
7 Sec. 3-8017. Enforcement of orders. If any provision of
8 this Division or any order of the Merit Commission is
9 violated by any person, regardless of whether that person's
10 employment is under the jurisdiction of the Division, the
11 Commission may apply to the circuit court for relief by
12 injunction, mandamus or any other proper relief. The State's
13 Attorney of the county where the violation occurred shall
14 prosecute such action. Whenever the State's Attorney for the
15 county where a violation is alleged to have occurred refuses
16 to prosecute the action, or fails to begin to prosecute such
17 action within 30 days after the date the Commission brings
18 the matter to his attention, the Commission may retain
19 special counsel of its own choice to prosecute the such
20 action.
