NOTICE TO RESPONDENT
Any knowing violation of an order of protection forbidding physical abuse, neglect,
exploitation, harassment, intimidation, interference with personal liberty, willful
deprivation, or entering or remaining present at specified places when a protected
person is present, or granting exclusive possession of the residence or household or
granting a stay away order is a Class A misdemeanor and a second or subsequent
violation is a Class 4 felony. The granting of exclusive possession of the residence or
household shall constitute notice forbidding trespass to land. Any knowing violation of
an order awarding legal custody or physical care of a child or prohibiting removal or
concealment of a child may be a Class 4 felony. Stalking is a Class 4 felony for a first
offense and a Class 3 felony for a subsequent offense. Any willful violation of any order
is contempt of court. Any violation may result in fine or imprisonment.
FINDINGS [Jurisdiction]
The Court, having reviewed the verified petition and having examined the petitioner under oath or
affirmation, finds that:
1. Good cause exists for granting the remedy or remedies requested without prior service of process or
notice because:
A. The harm that Remedies 1, 3, 5, 8, 9, 11, 14, 15, and 17 are intended to prevent would be
likely to occur if the Respondent were given prior notice, or greater notice than was actually
given, of the Petitioner’s efforts to obtain judicial relief.
B. For Remedy 2, the immediate danger of further abuse of Petitioner by Respondent, if Petitioner
chooses or had chosen to remain in the residence or household while Respondent was given
any prior notice or greater notice than was actually given or of Petitioner’s efforts to obtain
judicial relief, outweighs the hardships to Respondent of an Emergency Order granting
Petitioner exclusive possession of the residence or household.
C. For Remedy 10, improper disposition of the personal property would likely occur if the
Respondent were given any prior notice, or greater notice than was actually given, of the
Petitioner’s efforts to obtain judicial relief, or Petitioner has an immediate and pressing need for
the possession of that property (750 ILCS 60/217(a)(3)(iii)).
2. Petitioner’s actual address is set forth on page one (1).
or
Disclosure of Petitioner’s address would risk further abuse. The address set forth below is the
address for the purpose of service of notice on the petitioner in this case.
