 (from Ch. 40, par. 2311-2)Sec. 102.     Purposes; rules of construction.     This Act shall be  liberally construed and applied to promote its underlying purposes, which are  to:(1) Recognize domestic violence as a serious crime against the  individual and society which produces family disharmony in thousands of  Illinois families,  promotes a pattern of escalating violence which frequently culminates in  intra-family homicide, and creates an emotional atmosphere that is not  conducive to healthy childhood development;(2) Recognize domestic violence against high risk adults with  disabilities, who are particularly vulnerable due to impairments in ability  to seek or obtain protection, as a serious problem which takes on many  forms, including physical abuse, sexual abuse, neglect, and exploitation,  and facilitate accessibility of remedies under the Act in order to provide  immediate and effective assistance and protection.(3) Recognize that the legal system has  ineffectively dealt with family violence in the past, allowing abusers to  escape effective prosecution or financial liability, and has not adequately  acknowledged the criminal nature of domestic violence;  that, although many laws have changed, in practice there is  still widespread failure to appropriately protect and assist victims;(4) Support the efforts of victims of domestic violence to avoid further  abuse by promptly entering and diligently enforcing court orders which  prohibit abuse and, when necessary, reduce the abuser's access to the  victim and  address any related issues of child custody and economic  support, so that victims are not trapped in abusive situations by fear of  retaliation, loss of a child, financial dependence, or loss of  accessible housing or services;(5) Clarify the responsibilities and support the efforts of law  enforcement officers to provide immediate, effective assistance and  protection for victims of domestic violence, recognizing that law  enforcement officers often  become the secondary victims of domestic violence, as evidenced by the high  rates of police injuries and deaths that occur in response to domestic violence  calls; and(6) Expand the civil and criminal remedies for victims of domestic  violence; including, when necessary, the remedies which  effect physical  separation of the parties to prevent further abuse.

 (from Ch. 40, par. 2312-1.1)Sec. 201.1.     Access of high-risk adults.     No person shall obstruct or  impede the access of a high-risk adult with disabilities to any agency or  organization authorized to file a petition for an order of protection under  Section 201 of this Act for the purpose of a private visit relating to  legal rights, entitlements, claims and services under this Act and Section 1 of  "An Act  in relation to domestic relations and domestic violence shelters and  service programs", approved September 24, 1981, as now or hereafter  amended.  If a person does so obstruct or impede such access of a high-risk  adult with disabilities, local law enforcement agencies shall take all  appropriate  action to assist the party seeking access in petitioning for a search  warrant or an ex parte injunctive order.  Such warrant or order may issue  upon a showing of probable cause to believe that the high-risk adult with  disabilities is the subject of abuse, neglect, or exploitation which  constitutes a criminal offense or that any other criminal offense is  occurring which affects the interests or welfare of the high-risk adult  with disabilities.  When, from the personal observations of a law  enforcement officer, it appears probable that delay of entry in order to obtain  a warrant or order would cause the high-risk adult with disabilities to be  in imminent danger of death or great bodily harm, entry may be made by the  law enforcement officer after an announcement of the officer's authority and purpose.

The petition shall further set forth whether there is any other pending  action between the parties.  During the pendency of this proceeding, each  party has a continuing duty to inform the court of any subsequent  proceeding for an order of protection in this or any other state.(b) If the petition states that disclosure of petitioner's  address would risk abuse of petitioner or any member of petitioner's  family or household  or reveal the confidential address of a shelter for domestic violence victims,  that address may be omitted from all documents filed with the court.  If  disclosure is necessary to determine jurisdiction or consider any venue issue,  it shall be made orally and in camera.  If petitioner has not disclosed an address under this subsection,  petitioner shall designate an alternative address at which respondent may  serve notice of any motions.(c) If the petitioner is seeking to have a child protected by the order of  protection,  and if that child is enrolled in any day-care facility, pre-school,  pre-kindergarten, private  school, public school district, college, or university, the petitioner may  provide the name  and address of the day-care facility, pre-school, pre-kindergarten, private  school, public  school district, college, or university to the court.  However, if the petition  states that  disclosure of this information would risk abuse to petitioner or to the child  protected  under the order, this information may be omitted from all documents filed with  the court.

 (from Ch. 40, par. 2312-9)Sec. 209.     Venue.(a) Filing.  A petition for an order of protection may be  filed in any county where (i) petitioner resides, (ii) respondent resides,  (iii) the alleged abuse occurred or (iv) the petitioner is temporarily  located if petitioner left petitioner's residence to avoid further abuse and  could not obtain safe, accessible, and adequate temporary housing in  the county of that residence.(b) Exclusive Possession.  With respect to requests for exclusive  possession of the residence under this Act, venue is proper only in the  county where the residence is located, except in the following circumstances:(1) If a request for exclusive possession of the     residence is made under this Act in conjunction with a proceeding under the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, venue is proper in the county or judicial circuit where the residence is located or in a contiguous county or judicial circuit.(2) If a request for exclusive possession of the     residence is made under this Act in any other proceeding, provided the petitioner meets the requirements of item (iv) of subsection (a), venue is proper in the county or judicial circuit where the residence is located or in a contiguous county or judicial circuit. In such case, however, if the court is not located in the county where the residence is located, it may grant exclusive possession of the residence under subdivision (b)(2) of Section 214 only in an emergency order under Section 217, and such grant may be extended thereafter beyond the maximum initial period only by a court located in the county where the residence is located.(c) Inconvenient forum.  If an order of protection is issued by a court  in a county in which neither of the parties resides, the court  may balance hardships to the parties and accordingly transfer any  proceeding to extend, modify, re-open, vacate or enforce any such order to  a county wherein a party resides.(d) Objection.  Objection to venue is waived if not made within such time as  respondent's response is due, except as otherwise provided in subsection  (b).  In no event shall venue be deemed jurisdictional.

 (from Ch. 40, par. 2312-10.1)Sec. 210.1.     Service of notice in conjunction with a pending civil case.(a) Notice.  When an action for an order of protection is sought in  conjunction with a pending civil case in which the court has obtained  jurisdiction over respondent, and respondent has filed a general  appearance, then a separate summons need not issue.  Original notice of a  hearing on a petition for an order of protection may be given, and the  documents served, in accordance with Illinois Supreme Court Rules 11 and  12.  When, however, an emergency order of protection is sought in such a  case on an ex parte application, then the procedure set forth in subsection  (a) of Section 210 (other than in subsection (a)(2)) shall be followed.  If  an order of protection is issued using the notice provisions of this  Section, then the order of protection or extensions of that order may  survive the disposition of the main civil case.  The enforcement of any  order of protection under Section 223 shall not be affected by the lack of  notice under  this Section, provided the requirements of subsection (d) of that Section  are otherwise met.(b) Default.  The form of notice described in subsection (a) shall  include the following language directed to the respondent:A 2-year plenary order of protection may be entered     by default for any of the remedies sought in the petition if you fail to appear on the specified hearing date or on any subsequent hearing date agreed to by the parties or set by the court.(c) Party to give notice.  Notice in the pending civil case shall be  given (i) by either party  under this Section, with respect to extensions, modifications, hearings, or  other relief pertinent to an order of protection, in accordance with  Illinois Supreme Court Rules 11 and 12 or (ii) by the respondent as  provided in subsection (c) of Section 224.

Hearings.(a) A petition for an order of protection shall be  treated as an expedited proceeding, and no court  shall transfer or  otherwise decline to decide all or part of such petition  except as otherwise provided herein.  Nothing in this Section  shall prevent the court from reserving issues when jurisdiction or notice  requirements are not met.(b) Any court or a division thereof which ordinarily does not decide  matters of child custody and family support may decline to decide contested  issues of  physical care, custody, visitation, or family  support unless a decision on one or more of those contested  issues is necessary to  avoid the risk of abuse, neglect, removal from the state or concealment  within the state of the child or of separation of the child from the primary  caretaker.  If the court or division thereof has declined to decide any or all of  these issues, then it shall transfer all undecided issues to the  appropriate court or division.  In the event of such a transfer, a government attorney involved in the  criminal prosecution may, but need not, continue to offer counsel to  petitioner on transferred matters.(c) If the court transfers or otherwise declines to decide  any issue,  judgment on that issue shall be expressly reserved and  ruling on other  issues shall not be delayed or declined.

Any action for an order  of protection is an expedited proceeding.

If the  continuance is necessary for some, but not all, of the remedies requested,  hearing on those  other remedies shall not be delayed.    (Source: P.A. 87-1186.)
