(625 ILCS 5/18a-501) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 18a-501)
Sec. 18a-501.
Liens against relocated vehicles.
Unauthorized vehicles
removed and stored by a commercial vehicle relocator in compliance with
this Chapter shall be subject to a possessory lien for services
pursuant to the Labor and Storage Lien (Small Amount) Act, and the provisions of
Section 1 of that Act relating to notice and implied consent shall be deemed
satisfied by compliance with Section 18a-302 and item (10)
of Section 18a-300. In no event shall such lien be greater than the rate
or rates established in accordance with item (6) of Section 18a-200. In no event
shall such lien be increased or altered to reflect any charge for services
or materials rendered in addition to those authorized by this Act. Every
such lien shall be payable by use of any major credit card, in addition
to being payable in cash. Upon receipt of a properly signed credit card
receipt, a relocator shall become a holder in due course, and neither the
holder of the credit card nor the company which issued the credit card may
thereafter refuse to remit payment in the amount shown on the credit card
receipt minus the ordinary charge assessed by the credit card company for
processing the charge. The Commission may adopt regulations governing
acceptance of credit cards by a relocator.
