(20 ILCS 1805/77) (from Ch. 129, par. 220.77)
Sec. 77.
Whenever the sentence of a general or special courts-martial
includes a fine and such sentence has been approved by the officer
ordering such court, The Adjutant General shall issue a warrant for the
collection of such fines, directed to the sheriff of
the county wherein the person against whom such fine is imposed resides,
and the sheriff shall collect such fine in the same
manner as the sheriff is
authorized to collect on judgments for the payment of money
in civil actions, and the sheriff shall make return
within 20 days after receiving the same to The Adjutant General. In
default of the payment of such fine or if the officer executing such
warrant certifies that there is no property of the defendant out of
which to satisfy such warrant, The Adjutant General shall issue a
warrant of commitment, directed to such sheriff, who shall
forthwith arrest such delinquent, convey him or her to the
common jail of such county and make return thereof to The Adjutant
General.
The warrant of commitment for such default shall specify the amount
in dollars of the fine, and the delinquent shall remain in the custody
of the keeper or warden of such common jail one day for each five
dollars of the fine unpaid.
Warrants for the collections of fines imposed by summary courts and
warrants for commitment for non-payment thereof shall be issued by the
officer appointing such summary court.
