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.



750 ILCS 46/704

    (750 ILCS 46/704)
    Sec. 704. Withdrawal of consent of intended parent.
    (a) An intended parent may withdraw consent to assisted reproduction any time before an insemination or a transfer that results in a pregnancy in a writing or legal pleading with notice to the other participants and to any clinic or health care providers facilitating the assisted reproduction. Failure to give notice to the clinic or health care provider does not affect a determination of parentage under this Act.
    (b) An intended parent who withdraws consent under this Section prior to the insemination or embryo transfer is not a parent of any resulting child.
