5 changing Sections 60 and 115 as follows:
6 (740 ILCS 21/60)
7 Sec. 60. Process.
8 (a) Any action for a stalking no contact order requires
9 that a separate summons be issued and served. The summons shall
10 be in the form prescribed by Supreme Court Rule 101(d), except
11 that it shall require the respondent to answer or appear within

14 affidavits, if any, and any emergency stalking no contact order
15 that has been issued.
16 (b) The summons shall be served by the sheriff or other law
17 enforcement officer at the earliest time and shall take
18 precedence over other summonses except those of a similar
19 emergency nature. Special process servers may be appointed at

21 responsibilities and authority of the sheriff or other official
22 process servers.
23 (c) Service of process on a member of the respondent’s
HB3396 Enrolled – 2 – LRB101 10793 LNS 55919 b
1 household or by publication shall be adequate if: (1) the
2 petitioner has made all reasonable efforts to accomplish actual
3 service of process personally upon the respondent, but the
4 respondent cannot be found to effect such service; and (2) the
5 petitioner files an affidavit or presents sworn testimony as to
6 those efforts.
7 (d) A plenary stalking no contact order may be entered by
8 default for the remedy sought in the petition, if the
9 respondent has been served or given notice in accordance with
10 subsection (a) and if the respondent then fails to appear as
11 directed or fails to appear on any subsequent appearance or
12 hearing date agreed to by the parties or set by the court.
13 (e) If an order is granted under subsection (c) of Section
14 95, the court shall immediately file a certified copy of the

24 (1) enter the order on the record and file it in

HB3396 Enrolled – 3 – LRB101 10793 LNS 55919 b
1 (2) provide a file stamped copy of the order to the

8 order upon the respondent. If the order was issued in
9 accordance with subsection (c) of Section 95, the clerk shall,
10 on the next court day, file a certified copy of the order with
11 the sheriff or other law enforcement officials charged with
12 maintaining Department of State Police records. If the
13 respondent, at the time of the issuance of the order, is
14 committed to the custody of the Illinois Department of
15 Corrections or Illinois Department of Juvenile Justice or is on
16 parole, aftercare release, or mandatory supervised release,
17 the sheriff or other law enforcement officials charged with
18 maintaining Department of State Police records shall notify the
19 Department of Corrections or Department of Juvenile Justice
20 within 48 hours of receipt of a copy of the stalking no contact
21 order from the clerk of the issuing judge or the petitioner.

2 or special process server shall promptly serve that order upon

4 provided for service of process in civil proceedings. Instead
5 of serving the order upon the respondent, however, the sheriff,
6 other law enforcement official, special process server, or
7 other persons defined in Section 117 may serve the respondent
8 with a short form notification as provided in Section 117. If
9 process has not yet been served upon the respondent, it shall
10 be served with the order or short form notification if such
11 service is made by the sheriff, other law enforcement official,
12 or special process server.
13 (d) If the person against whom the stalking no contact
14 order is issued is arrested and the written order is issued in
15 accordance with subsection (c) of Section 95 and received by
16 the custodial law enforcement agency before the respondent or
17 arrestee is released from custody, the custodial law
18 enforcement agent shall promptly serve the order upon the
19 respondent or arrestee before the respondent or arrestee is
20 released from custody. In no event shall detention of the
21 respondent or arrestee be extended for hearing on the petition
22 for stalking no contact order or receipt of the order issued
23 under Section 95 of this Act.
24 (e) Any order extending, modifying, or revoking any
25 stalking no contact order shall be promptly recorded, issued,
26 and served as provided in this Section.

10 Section 15. The Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986 is

12 (750 ILCS 60/210) (from Ch. 40, par. 2312-10)
13 Sec. 210. Process.
14 (a) Summons. Any action for an order of protection, whether
15 commenced alone or in conjunction with another proceeding, is a
16 distinct cause of action and requires that a separate summons
17 be issued and served, except that in pending cases the
18 following methods may be used:
19 (1) By delivery of the summons to respondent personally
20 in open court in pending civil or criminal cases.
21 (2) By notice in accordance with Section 210.1 in civil
22 cases in which the defendant has filed a general

HB3396 Enrolled – 10 – LRB101 10793 LNS 55919 b

2 answer or appear within 7 days. Attachments to the summons or
3 notice shall include the petition for order of protection and
4 supporting affidavits, if any, and any emergency order of
5 protection that has been issued. The enforcement of an order of
6 protection under Section 223 shall not be affected by the lack

11 sheriff or other law enforcement officer at the earliest time
12 and shall take precedence over other summonses except those of
13 a similar emergency nature. Special process servers may be
14 appointed at any time, and their designation shall not affect
15 the responsibilities and authority of the sheriff or other
16 official process servers. In counties with a population over
17 3,000,000, a special process server may not be appointed if the
18 order of protection grants the surrender of a child, the
19 surrender of a firearm or firearm owners identification card,
20 or the exclusive possession of a shared residence.
21 (d) Remedies requiring actual notice. The counseling,
22 payment of support, payment of shelter services, and payment of
23 losses remedies provided by paragraphs 4, 12, 13, and 16 of
24 subsection (b) of Section 214 may be granted only if respondent
25 has been personally served with process, has answered or has
26 made a general appearance.
HB3396 Enrolled – 11 – LRB101 10793 LNS 55919 b
1 (e) Remedies upon constructive notice. Service of process
2 on a member of respondent’s household or by publication shall
3 be adequate for the remedies provided by paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 5,
4 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 15, and 17 of subsection (b) of Section
5 214, but only if: (i) petitioner has made all reasonable
6 efforts to accomplish actual service of process personally upon
7 respondent, but respondent cannot be found to effect such
8 service and (ii) petitioner files an affidavit or presents
9 sworn testimony as to those efforts.
10 (f) Default. A plenary order of protection may be entered
11 by default as follows:
12 (1) For any of the remedies sought in the petition, if
13 respondent has been served or given notice in accordance
14 with subsection (a) and if respondent then fails to appear
15 as directed or fails to appear on any subsequent appearance
16 or hearing date agreed to by the parties or set by the
17 court; or
18 (2) For any of the remedies provided in accordance with
19 subsection (e), if respondent fails to answer or appear in

21 the return date indicated on the service of a household
22 member.

10 procedures and (ii) provide a file stamped copy of the order to

15 proceedings. Instead of serving the order upon the respondent,
16 however, the sheriff, other law enforcement official, special
17 process server, or other persons defined in Section 222.10 may
18 serve the respondent with a short form notification as provided
19 in Section 222.10. If process has not yet been served upon the
20 respondent, it shall be served with the order or short form
21 notification if such service is made by the sheriff, other law
22 enforcement official, or special process server. A single fee
23 may be charged for service of an order obtained in civil court,
24 or for service of such an order together with process, unless
25 waived or deferred under Section 210.
26 (c-5) If the person against whom the order of protection is
