(225 ILCS 422/120)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2022)
Sec. 120. Payments; penalty for insufficient funds. Any person or entity who delivers a check or other payment to the Commission that is returned to the Commission unpaid by the financial institution upon which it is drawn shall pay to the Commission, in addition to the amount already owed to the Commission, a fine amount as determined by the Commission. The fines imposed by this Section are in addition to any other discipline provided under this Act prohibiting unlicensed or unregistered practice or practice on a nonrenewed license or recovery permit. The Commission shall notify the person or entity that fees and fines shall be paid to the Commission by certified check or money order within 30 calendar days after notification. If, after the expiration of 30 days from the date of notification, the person or entity has failed to submit the necessary remittance, then the Commission shall automatically terminate the license or recovery permit or deny the application without hearing. If, after termination or denial, the person seeks a license or recovery permit, then the person or entity shall apply to the Commission for restoration or issuance of the license or recovery permit and pay all fees and fines due to the Commission. The Commission may establish a fee for the processing of an application for restoration of a license or recovery permit to pay all expenses of processing the application. The Commission may waive the fines due under this Section in individual cases where the Commission finds that the fines would be unreasonable or unnecessarily burdensome.
