Illinois Code § 10

§ 10.

The Department, at its expense, shall provide a stenographer to take down the testimony and preserve a record of all proceedings at the hearing of any case involving the refusal to issue or renew, or the suspension or revocation of a license. The notice of hearing, complaint and all other documents in the nature of pleadings and written motions filed in the proceedings, the transcript of testimony, and orders of the Department shall be the record of such proceedings. Any interested person may purchase a copy of the transcript of the record from the certified shorthand reporter who prepared the record. In any case involving the refusal to issue or renew or the suspension or revocation of a license, a copy of the Department's report shall be served upon the respondent by the Department, either personally or by registered or certified mail as provided in this Act for the service of the notice of hearing. Within 20 days after such service, the respondent may present to the Department a motion in writing for a rehearing, which written motion shall specify the particular grounds therefor. If no motion for rehearing is filed, then upon the expiration of the time specified for filing such a motion, or if a motion for rehearing is denied, then upon such denial, the Director may enter an order. If the respondent shall order and pay for a transcript of the record within the time for filing a motion for rehearing, the 20 day period within which such a motion may be filed shall commence upon the delivery of the transcript to the respondent.
