Illinois § 50

§ 50.

Returned checks. Any person who on 2 occasions issues or delivers a check or other order to the State Fire Marshal that is not honored by the financial institution upon which it is drawn because of insufficient funds in his or her account, shall pay to the State Fire Marshal, in addition to the amount owing upon the check or other order, a fee of $50. If the check or other order was issued or delivered in payment of a renewal fee and the licensee whose license has lapsed continues to practice without paying the renewal fee and the $50 fee required under this Section, an additional fee of $100 shall be imposed for practicing without a current license. The State Fire Marshal shall notify the licensee whose license has lapsed within 30 days after the discovery by the State Fire Marshal that the licensee is practicing without a current license, that the person is acting as a petroleum equipment contractor or employee, as the case may be, without a license, and the amount due to the State Fire Marshal, which shall include the lapsed renewal fee and all other fees required by this Section. If after the expiration of 30 days from the date of such notification, the licensee whose license has lapsed seeks a current license, he or she shall apply to the State Fire Marshal for reinstatement of the license and pay all fees due to the State Fire Marshal. The State Fire Marshal may establish a fee for the processing of an application for reinstatement of a license that allows the State Fire Marshal to pay all costs and expenses incident to the processing of this application. The State Fire Marshal may waive the fees due under this Section in individual cases where he or she finds that the fees would be unreasonable or unnecessarily burdensome.
