Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.



755 ILCS 5/12-7

    (755 ILCS 5/12-7) (from Ch. 110 1/2, par. 12-7)
    Sec. 12-7. Deposit in lieu or reduction of bond.) Upon petition of a representative and upon such notice as the court directs, the court may order the representative to deposit for safe-keeping with a corporation qualified to accept and execute trusts in this State such portion or all of the personal estate as the court deems proper, subject to the further order of the court, and that the bond of the representative be reduced so as to cover only the estate remaining in the possession or custody of the representative.
