Illinois Statutes Chapter 770. Liens § 70/15. Removal prohibited; injunction; lien follows property wrongfully removed

§ 15. Removal prohibited; injunction; lien follows property wrongfully removed. When any lien provided for by this Act shall have attached to the property covered thereby, it shall be unlawful for any person to remove such property, or any part thereof, or cause the same to be removed from the land or premises where located at the time such lien attached or otherwise dispose of the same without the written consent of the holder of such lien. In the event such property, or some part thereof, is about to be removed or disposed of in violation of this Section, the circuit court of the county where such property, or any part thereof, is located may upon the verified complaint of the holder of such lien enjoin all persons alleged in such complaint to be about to remove or dispose of such property, or some part thereof, from removing or disposing of the same. In the event such property, or any part thereof, shall have been removed or disposed of in violation of this Section, the holder of such lien shall be entitled in any action to foreclose the same to the appointment of a receiver to take possession of such removed or disposed of property wherever the same may be located within this State; provided, however, that this Section shall not preclude the appointment of receiver in actions brought to foreclose liens given by this Chapter upon any equitable grounds warranting such appointment or as provided for by Section 16. This Section shall not apply to any lien claims which have been discharged by the filing of a bond as provided by Section 11.
