§ 5008.
Administrative Review Law. All final administrative decisions of the Department under this Act are subject to judicial review pursuant to the Administrative Review Law (735 ILCS 5/3-101 et seq.), as now or hereafter amended, and its rules. The term "administrative decision" is defined as in Section 3-101 of the Code of Civil Procedure. Appeals from all orders and judgments entered by the court, in reviewing a final administrative decision of the Department, may be taken by any party to the action as in other civil cases. Pending final decision on such review, the acts, orders and rulings of the Department shall remain in full force and effect unless modified or suspended by order of court pending final judicial decision. The Department shall not be required to certify any record to the court or file any answer in court or otherwise appear in any court in a judicial review proceeding, unless there is filed in the court with the complaint a receipt from the Department acknowledging payment of the costs of furnishing and certifying the record, which costs shall be computed at the rate of 35 cents per page. Failure on the part of the plaintiff to file such receipt in court shall be grounds for dismissal of the action. (Source: P.A. 96-1194, eff. 1-1-11.)
