Where relief is sought  and the court determines, on motion directed to the pleadings, or on motion  for summary judgment or upon trial, that the plaintiff has pleaded or established  facts which entitled the plaintiff to relief but that the plaintiff has  sought the wrong remedy, the  court shall permit the pleadings to be amended, on just and reasonable terms,  and the court shall grant the relief to which the plaintiff is entitled  on the amended pleadings or upon the evidence.  In considering whether a  proposed amendment is just and reasonable, the court  shall consider the right of the defendant to assert additional defenses,  to demand a trial by jury, to plead a counterclaim or third party complaint,  and to order the plaintiff to take additional steps which were not required  under the pleadings as previously filed.

(a) Defendant may, within the time for pleading, file a  motion for dismissal of the action or for other appropriate relief upon  any of the following grounds.  If the grounds do not appear on the face  of the pleading attacked the motion shall be supported by affidavit:(1) That the court does not have jurisdiction of the subject matter  of the action, provided the defect cannot be removed by a transfer of  the case to a court having jurisdiction.(2) That the plaintiff does not have legal capacity to sue or that  the defendant does not have legal capacity to be sued.(3) That there is another action pending between the same parties  for the same cause.(4) That the cause of action is barred by a prior judgment.(5) That the action was not commenced within the time limited by  law.(6) That the claim set forth in the plaintiff's pleading  has been released, satisfied of record, or discharged in bankruptcy.(7) That the claim asserted is unenforceable under the  provisions of the Statute of Frauds.(8) That the claim asserted against defendant is  unenforceable because of his or her minority or other disability.(9) That the claim asserted against defendant is barred by  other affirmative matter avoiding the legal effect of or defeating the  claim.(b) A similar motion may be made by any other party against whom a  claim is asserted.(c) If, upon the hearing of the motion, the opposite party presents  affidavits or other proof denying the facts alleged or establishing  facts obviating the grounds of defect, the court may hear and determine  the same and may grant or deny the motion.  If a material and genuine  disputed question of fact is raised the court may decide the motion upon  the affidavits and evidence offered by the parties, or may deny the  motion without prejudice to the right to raise the subject matter of the  motion by answer and shall so deny it if the action is one in which a  party is entitled to a trial by jury and a jury demand has been filed by  the opposite party in apt time.(d) The raising of any of the foregoing matters by motion under this  Section does not preclude the raising of them subsequently by answer  unless the court has disposed of the motion on its merits; and a failure  to raise any of them by motion does not preclude raising them by answer.(e) Pleading over after denial by the court of a motion under this  Section is not a waiver of any error in the decision denying the motion.(f) The form and contents of and procedure relating to affidavits  under this Section shall be as provided by rule.

 (from Ch. 110, par. 2-701)Sec. 2-701.     Declaratory judgments.     (a) No action or proceeding is  open to objection on the ground that a merely declaratory judgment or  order is sought thereby.  The court may, in cases of actual controversy,  make binding declarations of rights, having the force of final  judgments, whether or not any consequential relief is or could be  claimed, including the determination, at the instance of anyone  interested in the controversy, of the construction of any statute,  municipal ordinance, or other governmental regulation, or of any deed,  will, contract or other written instrument, and a declaration of the  rights of the parties interested.  The foregoing enumeration does not  exclude other cases of actual controversy.  The court shall refuse to  enter a declaratory judgment or order, if it appears that the judgment  or order, would not terminate the controversy or some part thereof,  giving rise to the proceeding.  In no event shall the court entertain  any action or proceeding for a declaratory judgment or order involving  any political question where the defendant is a State officer whose  election is provided for by the Constitution;  however, nothing herein  shall prevent the court from entertaining any such action or proceeding  for a declaratory judgment or order if such question also involves a  constitutional convention or the construction of a statute involving a  constitutional convention.(b) Declarations of rights, as herein provided  for, may be obtained by means of a pleading seeking that relief alone,  or as incident to or part of a complaint, counterclaim or other pleading  seeking other relief as well, and if a declaration of rights is the only  relief asked, the case may be set for early hearing as in the case of a  motion.(c) If further relief based upon a declaration of right becomes  necessary or proper after the declaration has been made, application may  be made by petition to any court having jurisdiction for an order  directed to any party or parties whose rights have been determined by  the declaration to show cause why the further relief should not be  granted forthwith, upon reasonable notice prescribed by the court in its  order.(d) If a proceeding under this Section involves the determination of  issues of fact triable by a jury, they shall be tried and determined in  the same manner as issues of fact are tried and determined in other  civil actions in the court in which the proceeding is pending.(e) Unless the parties agree by stipulation as to the allowance  thereof, costs in proceedings authorized by this Section shall be  allowed in accordance with rules.  In the absence of rules the practice  in other civil actions shall be followed if applicable, and if not  applicable, the costs may be taxed as to the court seems just.    (Source: P.A. 82-280.)
