Illinois Statutes Chapter 5. General Provisions § 420/2-104. Acceptance or participation in cases prohibited; exception; punishment

§ 2-104. No legislator may accept or participate in any way in any representation case, as that term is defined in Section 1-113, before (1) the Court of Claims of this State or (2) the Illinois Workers' Compensation Commission, when the State of Illinois is the respondent.

This Section does not prohibit participation in such a representation case by a person with whom the legislator maintains a close economic association, unless the fact of that association is used to influence or attempt to influence the State agency in the rendering of its decision.

A violation of this Section is a Class A misdemeanor.
