1    additional duties required to serve the petition to seal or

13    petitioner or any party entitled to notice may file a

15    or denying the petition to expunge or seal within 60 days
16    of service of the order. If filed more than 60 days after
17    service of the order, a petition to vacate, modify, or
18    reconsider shall comply with subsection (c) of Section
19    2-1401 of the Code of Civil Procedure. Upon filing of a
20    motion to vacate, modify, or reconsider, notice of the
21    motion shall be served upon the petitioner and all parties
22    entitled to notice of the petition.
23        (13) Effect of Order. An order granting a petition
24    under the expungement or sealing provisions of this Section
25    shall not be considered void because it fails to comply
26    with the provisions of this Section or because of any error

 

 

HB0514 Engrossed- 31 -LRB100 07267 SLF 17328 b

1    asserted in a motion to vacate, modify, or reconsider. The
2    circuit court retains jurisdiction to determine whether
3    the order is voidable and to vacate, modify, or reconsider
4    its terms based on a motion filed under paragraph (12) of
5    this subsection (d).
6        (14) Compliance with Order Granting Petition to Seal
7    Records. Unless a court has entered a stay of an order
8    granting a petition to seal, all parties entitled to notice
9    of the petition must fully comply with the terms of the
10    order within 60 days of service of the order even if a

12    filed under paragraph (12) of this subsection (d) or is
13    appealing the order.
14        (15) Compliance with Order Granting Petition to
15    Expunge Records. While a party is seeking relief from the
16    order granting the petition to expunge through a motion
17    filed under paragraph (12) of this subsection (d) or is
18    appealing the order, and unless a court has entered a stay
19    of that order, the parties entitled to notice of the
20    petition must seal, but need not expunge, the records until
21    there is a final order on the motion for relief or, in the
22    case of an appeal, the issuance of that court's mandate.
