(750 ILCS 5/607.1) (from Ch. 40, par. 607.1)
    Sec. 607.1. Enforcement of visitation orders; visitation abuse.
    (a) The circuit court shall provide an expedited procedure for enforcement of court ordered visitation in cases of visitation abuse. Visitation abuse occurs when a party has willfully and without justification: (1) denied another party visitation as set forth by the court; or (2) exercised his or her visitation rights in a manner that is harmful to the child or child's custodian.
    (b) An Action may be commenced by filing a petition setting forth: (i) the petitioner's name, residence address or mailing address, and telephone number; (ii) respondent's name and place of residence, place of employment, or mailing address; (iii) the nature of the visitation abuse, giving dates and other relevant information; (iv) that a reasonable attempt was made to resolve the dispute; and (v) the relief sought.
    Notice of the filing of the petitions shall be given as provided in Section 511.
    (c) After hearing all of the evidence, the court may order one or more of the following:
        (1) Modification of the visitation order to
    
specifically outline periods of visitation or restrict visitation as provided by law.
        (2) Supervised visitation with a third party or
    
public agency.
        (3) Make up visitation of the same time period, such
    
as weekend for weekend, holiday for holiday.
        (4) Counseling or mediation, except in cases where
    
there is evidence of domestic violence, as defined in Section 1 of the Domestic Violence Shelters Act, occurring between the parties.
        (5) Other appropriate relief deemed equitable.
    (d) Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to limit the court's contempt power, except as provided in subsection (g) of this Section.
    (e) When the court issues an order holding a party in contempt of court for violation of a visitation order, the clerk shall transmit a copy of the contempt order to the sheriff of the county. The sheriff shall furnish a copy of each contempt order to the Department of State Police on a daily basis in the form and manner required by the Department. The Department shall maintain a complete record and index of the contempt orders and make this data available to all local law enforcement agencies.
    (f) Attorney fees and costs shall be assessed against a party if the court finds that the enforcement action is vexatious and constitutes harassment.
    (g) A person convicted of unlawful visitation or parenting time interference under Section 10-5.5 of the Criminal Code of 1961 shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section and the court may not enter a contempt order for visitation abuse against any person for the same conduct for which the person was convicted of unlawful visitation interference or subject that person to the sanctions provided for in this Section.
