Illinois Statutes Chapter 505. Agriculture § 115/20. Violations; injunctive relief; hearings

§ 20. No person shall knowingly fail or refuse to comply with any requirement of this Act where obligated to comply by a duly approved sheep and wool production development board and/or marketing program. The sheep and wool production development and marketing board may institute any action which is necessary to enforce compliance with any provision of this Act, and policy established thereunder or any sheep or wool production development and marketing program adopted pursuant to this Act. In addition to any other remedy provided by law, the sheep and wool production development and marketing board may petition for injunctive relief without being required to allege or prove the absence of any adequate remedy at law.

Before the sheep and wool production development and marketing board may institute any proceedings under this Act, the alleged violator shall first be given an opportunity for a hearing, held pursuant to board procedures, at which he may present evidence as to why proceedings should not be instituted against him.
