Bill > SB3044

This bill amends three Illinois laws—the Stalking No Contact Order Act, the Civil No Contact Order Act, and the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986—to clarify the duration of emergency orders in domestic violence cases. Specifically, it ensures that an emergency order, which is a temporary order issued quickly to provide immediate protection, will remain in effect until a more permanent order, known as a plenary order, or a simplified notification called a short form notification, is officially served on the person against whom the order was issued. This provision aims to prevent any gap in protection for victims between the initial emergency order and the finalization and notification of the subsequent order.
