DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ORDER-EFFECT

Summary

The bill amends Illinois stalking, civil and domestic‑violence statutes so that an emergency no‑contact order remains in force until the final plenary order—or a short‑form notification—has been delivered to the respondent. It protects victims by preventing a gap in protection while the full order is being served, and it clarifies the duties of courts, sheriffs and other officials. The change applies to anyone subject to a stalking, civil or domestic‑violence no‑contact order.
