the affidavit or verified pleading should describe what
efforts were made.
(c) Every person who files a petition for a plenary

respondent poses a significant danger of personal injury to
himself, herself, or another by having in his or her custody or
control, purchasing, possessing, or receiving a firearm,
ammunition, and firearm parts that could be assembled to make
an operable firearm.
(g) If the court finds that there is clear and convincing
evidence to issue a plenary firearms restraining order, the
court shall issue a firearms restraining order that shall be

(g-5) If the court issues a plenary 6-month firearms
restraining order, it shall, upon a finding of probable cause
that the respondent possesses firearms, ammunition, and
firearm parts that could be assembled to make an operable
firearm, issue a search warrant directing a law enforcement
agency to seize the respondent's firearms, ammunition, and
firearm parts that could be assembled to make an operable
firearm. The court may, as part of that warrant, direct the law
enforcement agency to search the respondent's residence and
other places where the court finds there is probable cause to
believe he or she is likely to possess the firearms,
ammunition, and firearm parts that could be assembled to make
an operable firearm. A return of the search warrant shall be
filed by the law enforcement agency within 4 days thereafter,
setting forth the time, date, and location that the search
warrant was executed and what items, if any, were seized.

the court may order the local law enforcement agency to
destroy the firearms, ammunition, and firearm parts that could
be assembled to make an operable firearm, use the firearms,
ammunition, and firearm parts that could be assembled to make
an operable firearm for training purposes, or use the
firearms, ammunition, and firearm parts that could be
assembled to make an operable firearm for any other
application as deemed appropriate by the local law enforcement
agency.
(i-5) A respondent whose Firearm Owner's Identification
Card has been revoked or suspended may petition the court, if
the petitioner is present in court or has notice of the

to any firearms, ammunition, and firearm parts that could be
assembled to make an operable firearm surrendered under this
Section, he or she may petition the court, if the petitioner is
present in court or has notice of the petition, to have the
firearm, ammunition, and firearm parts that could be assembled
to make an operable firearm returned to him or her. If the
court determines that person to be the lawful owner of the
firearm, ammunition, and firearm parts that could be assembled
to make an operable firearm, the firearm, ammunition, and
firearm parts that could be assembled to make an operable
firearm shall be returned to him or her, provided that:

10200SB2226ham002 - 44 - LRB102 17220 RLC 42454 a
(1) the firearm, ammunition, and firearm parts that
