Allows a petition for a stalking no contact order or civil no contact order to be filed: by a member of the Illinois National Guard or any reserve military component serving within the State who is a victim of non-consensual sexual conduct who has also received a Military Protective Order; or by the Staff Judge Advocate of the Illinois National Guard or any reserve military component serving within the State on behalf of a named victim who is a victim of non-consensual sexual conduct who has also received a Military Protective Order only after receiving consent from the victim, and requires the petition to include a statement that the victim has consented to the Staff Judge Advocate filing the petition.

(725 ILCS 5/112A-23) (from Ch. 38, par. 112A-23)
Sec. 112A-23. Enforcement of protective orders.
(a) When violation is crime. A violation of any protective
order, whether issued in a civil, quasi-criminal proceeding or
by a military judge tribunal, shall be enforced by a criminal
court when:
(1) The respondent commits the crime of violation of a
domestic violence order of protection pursuant to Section
12-3.4 or 12-30 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the
Criminal Code of 2012, by having knowingly violated:
(i) remedies described in paragraph (1), (2), (3),
(14), or (14.5) of subsection (b) of Section 112A-14
of this Code,
(ii) a remedy, which is substantially similar to
the remedies authorized under paragraph (1), (2), (3),
(14), or (14.5) of subsection (b) of Section 214 of the
Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986, in a valid
order of protection, which is authorized under the
laws of another state, tribe, or United States
territory, or
(iii) any other remedy when the act constitutes a

crime against the protected parties as defined by the
Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012.
Prosecution for a violation of a domestic violence
order of protection shall not bar concurrent prosecution
for any other crime, including any crime that may have
been committed at the time of the violation of the
domestic violence order of protection; or
(2) The respondent commits the crime of child
abduction pursuant to Section 10-5 of the Criminal Code of

violated:
(i) remedies described in paragraph (5), (6), or
(8) of subsection (b) of Section 112A-14 of this Code,
or
(ii) a remedy, which is substantially similar to
the remedies authorized under paragraph (1), (5), (6),
or (8) of subsection (b) of Section 214 of the Illinois
Domestic Violence Act of 1986, in a valid domestic
violence order of protection, which is authorized
under the laws of another state, tribe, or United
States territory.
(3) The respondent commits the crime of violation of a
civil no contact order when the respondent violates
Section 12-3.8 of the Criminal Code of 2012. Prosecution

concurrent prosecution for any other crime, including any

crime that may have been committed at the time of the
violation of the civil no contact order.

stalking no contact order when the respondent violates
Section 12-3.9 of the Criminal Code of 2012. Prosecution

(b) When violation is contempt of court. A violation of
any valid protective order, whether issued in a civil or
criminal proceeding or by a military judge tribunal, may be
enforced through civil or criminal contempt procedures, as
appropriate, by any court with jurisdiction, regardless where
the act or acts which violated the protective order were
committed, to the extent consistent with the venue provisions
of this Article. Nothing in this Article shall preclude any
Illinois court from enforcing any valid protective order
issued in another state. Illinois courts may enforce
protective orders through both criminal prosecution and
contempt proceedings, unless the action which is second in
time is barred by collateral estoppel or the constitutional
prohibition against double jeopardy.
(1) In a contempt proceeding where the petition for a
rule to show cause sets forth facts evidencing an
immediate danger that the respondent will flee the

jurisdiction, conceal a child, or inflict physical abuse
on the petitioner or minor children or on dependent adults
in petitioner's care, the court may order the attachment
of the respondent without prior service of the rule to
show cause or the petition for a rule to show cause. Bond
shall be set unless specifically denied in writing.
(2) A petition for a rule to show cause for violation
of a protective order shall be treated as an expedited
proceeding.
(c) Violation of custody, allocation of parental
responsibility, or support orders. A violation of remedies
described in paragraph (5), (6), (8), or (9) of subsection (b)
of Section 112A-14 of this Code may be enforced by any remedy
provided by Section 607.5 of the Illinois Marriage and
Dissolution of Marriage Act. The court may enforce any order
for support issued under paragraph (12) of subsection (b) of
Section 112A-14 of this Code in the manner provided for under
Parts V and VII of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
Marriage Act.
(d) Actual knowledge. A protective order may be enforced
pursuant to this Section if the respondent violates the order
after the respondent has actual knowledge of its contents as
shown through one of the following means:
(1) (Blank).
(2) (Blank).
(3) By service of a protective order under subsection

(f) of Section 112A-17.5 or Section 112A-22 of this Code.
(4) By other means demonstrating actual knowledge of
the contents of the order.

criminal court shall not be affected by either of the
following:
(1) The existence of a separate, correlative order
entered under Section 112A-15 of this Code.
(2) Any finding or order entered in a conjoined
criminal proceeding.
(e-5) If a civil no contact order entered under subsection
(6) of Section 112A-20 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of
1963 conflicts with an order issued pursuant to the Juvenile
Court Act of 1987 or the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
Marriage Act, the conflicting order issued under subsection
(6) of Section 112A-20 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of
1963 shall be void.
(f) Circumstances. The court, when determining whether or
not a violation of a protective order has occurred, shall not
require physical manifestations of abuse on the person of the
victim.
(g) Penalties.
(1) Except as provided in paragraph (3) of this
subsection (g), where the court finds the commission of a
crime or contempt of court under subsection (a) or (b) of
this Section, the penalty shall be the penalty that

generally applies in such criminal or contempt
proceedings, and may include one or more of the following:
incarceration, payment of restitution, a fine, payment of
attorneys' fees and costs, or community service.
(2) The court shall hear and take into account
evidence of any factors in aggravation or mitigation
before deciding an appropriate penalty under paragraph (1)
of this subsection (g).
(3) To the extent permitted by law, the court is
encouraged to:
(i) increase the penalty for the knowing violation
of any protective order over any penalty previously
imposed by any court for respondent's violation of any
protective order or penal statute involving petitioner
as victim and respondent as defendant;
(ii) impose a minimum penalty of 24 hours
imprisonment for respondent's first violation of any
protective order; and
(iii) impose a minimum penalty of 48 hours
imprisonment for respondent's second or subsequent
violation of a protective order
unless the court explicitly finds that an increased
penalty or that period of imprisonment would be manifestly
unjust.
(4) In addition to any other penalties imposed for a
violation of a protective order, a criminal court may

consider evidence of any violations of a protective order:
(i) to modify the conditions of pretrial release
on an underlying criminal charge pursuant to Section
110-6 of this Code;
(ii) to revoke or modify an order of probation,
conditional discharge, or supervision, pursuant to

Sec. 220. Enforcement of a civil no contact order.
(a) Nothing in this Act shall preclude any Illinois court
from enforcing a valid protective order issued in another
state or by a military judge.
(b) Illinois courts may enforce civil no contact orders
through both criminal proceedings and civil contempt
proceedings, unless the action which is second in time is

barred by collateral estoppel or the constitutional
prohibition against double jeopardy.
(b-1) The court shall not hold a school district or
private or non-public school or any of its employees in civil
or criminal contempt unless the school district or private or
non-public school has been allowed to intervene.
(b-2) The court may hold the parents, guardian, or legal
custodian of a minor respondent in civil or criminal contempt
for a violation of any provision of any order entered under
this Act for conduct of the minor respondent in violation of
this Act if the parents, guardian, or legal custodian
directed, encouraged, or assisted the respondent minor in such
conduct.
(c) Criminal prosecution. A violation of any civil no
contact order, whether issued in a civil or criminal
proceeding or by a military judge, shall be enforced by a
criminal court when the respondent commits the crime of
violation of a civil no contact order pursuant to Section 219
by having knowingly violated:
(1) remedies described in Section 213 and included in
a civil no contact order; or
(2) a provision of an order, which is substantially
similar to provisions of Section 213, in a valid civil no
contact order which is authorized under the laws of
another state, tribe, or United States territory.
Prosecution for a violation of a civil no contact order

shall not bar a concurrent prosecution for any other crime,
including any crime that may have been committed at the time of
the violation of the civil no contact order.
(d) Contempt of court. A violation of any valid Illinois
civil no contact order, whether issued in a civil or criminal
proceeding, may be enforced through civil or criminal contempt
procedures, as appropriate, by any court with jurisdiction,
regardless of where the act or acts which violated the civil no
contact order were committed, to the extent consistent with
the venue provisions of this Act.
(1) In a contempt proceeding where the petition for a
rule to show cause or petition for adjudication of
criminal contempt sets forth facts evidencing an immediate
danger that the respondent will flee the jurisdiction or
inflict physical abuse on the petitioner or minor children
or on dependent adults in the petitioner's care, the court
may order the attachment of the respondent without prior
service of the petition for a rule to show cause, the rule
to show cause, the petition for adjudication of criminal
contempt or the adjudication of criminal contempt.
Conditions of release shall be set unless specifically
denied in writing.
(2) A petition for a rule to show cause or a petition
for adjudication of criminal contempt for violation of a
civil no contact order shall be treated as an expedited
proceeding.

(e) Actual knowledge. A civil no contact order may be
enforced pursuant to this Section if the respondent violates
the order after the respondent has actual knowledge of its
contents as shown through one of the following means:
(1) by service, delivery, or notice under Section 208;
(2) by notice under Section 218;
(3) by service of a civil no contact order under
Section 218; or
(4) by other means demonstrating actual knowledge of
the contents of the order.
(f) The enforcement of a civil no contact order in civil or
criminal court shall not be affected by either of the
following:
(1) the existence of a separate, correlative order,
entered under Section 202; or
(2) any finding or order entered in a conjoined
criminal proceeding.
(g) Circumstances. The court, when determining whether or
not a violation of a civil no contact order has occurred, shall
not require physical manifestations of abuse on the person of
the victim.

generally applies in such criminal or contempt
proceedings, and may include one or more of the following:
incarceration, payment of restitution, a fine, payment of
attorneys' fees and costs, or community service.
(2) The court shall hear and take into account
evidence of any factors in aggravation or mitigation
before deciding an appropriate penalty under paragraph (1)
of this subsection.
(3) To the extent permitted by law, the court is
encouraged to:
(i) increase the penalty for the knowing violation
of any civil no contact order over any penalty
previously imposed by any court for respondent's
violation of any civil no contact order or penal
statute involving petitioner as victim and respondent
as defendant;
(ii) impose a minimum penalty of 24 hours
imprisonment for respondent's first violation of any
civil no contact order; and
(iii) impose a minimum penalty of 48 hours
imprisonment for respondent's second or subsequent
violation of a civil no contact order unless the court
explicitly finds that an increased penalty or that
period of imprisonment would be manifestly unjust.
(4) In addition to any other penalties imposed for a
violation of a civil no contact order, a criminal court

may consider evidence of any previous violations of a
civil no contact order:
(i) to modify the conditions of pretrial release
on an underlying criminal charge pursuant to Section
110-6 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963;
(ii) to revoke or modify an order of probation,
conditional discharge or supervision, pursuant to

believed that enforcement may be necessary.
(b) The clerk shall:
(1) treat the foreign order of protection, including,
but not limited to, an order of protection issued by a
military judge tribunal, in the same manner as a judgment

accordance with the provisions of the Uniform Enforcement
of Foreign Judgments Act, except that the clerk shall not
mail notice of the filing of the foreign order to the
respondent named in the order; and
(2) on the same day that a foreign order of protection
is filed, file a certified copy of that order with the
sheriff or other law enforcement officials charged with

Section 222 of this Act.
(c) Neither residence in this State nor filing of a
foreign order of protection, including, but not limited to, an
order of protection issued by a military judge tribunal, shall
be required for enforcement of the order by this State.
Failure to file the foreign order shall not be an impediment to
its treatment in all respects as an Illinois order of
protection.

order of protection under this Section.
(e) The sheriff shall inform the Illinois State Police as
set forth in Section 302 of this Act.

conduct.
(c) Violation of custody or support orders or temporary or
final judgments allocating parental responsibilities. A
