IN THE CIRCUIT COURT

GENERAL ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO: 96-1
SUBJECT: ILLINOIS NOT-FOR-PROFIT DISPUTE RESOLUTION ACT
Pursuant to the Illinois Not-For-Profit Dispute Resolution Act
(ILCS 1994 ch. 710, sec. 20/1 et seq.), the Clerk of the Circuit
Court of Cook County has collected fees from civil case filings
for the year 1995 for disbursement to the Dispute Resolution Centers
which qualify under said Act and General Order 19 of the Circuit
Court of Cook County. Fees available for disbursement from this
Fund for the year 1995 total $220,269.00.
Upon review of applications received for funds collected in 1995,
the sole qualifying applicant under the requirements set forth
in said Act and General Order No. 19 of the Circuit Court of Cook
County was found to be Center for Conflict Resolution. It is eligible
for the maximum amount allowable for disbursement to any Dispute
Resolution Center in a given year of $200,000.
Pursuant to the Illinois Not-For-Profit Dispute Resolution Act
(ILCS 1994 ch. 710, sec. 20/4) any funds collected but not disbursed
in a given year shall be paid in single county judicial circuits
to the County Treasurer for the administration of justice in the
judicial circuit. An amount of $20,269.00 remains collected for
the year 1995 but no Dispute Resolution Center is qualified to
receive disbursement of these funds.
Therefore, it is hereby ordered that the amount of $200,000.00,
representing the maximum amount allowable for disbursement to
any Dispute Resolution Center in a given year, shall be disbursed
to Center for Conflict Resolution.
Further, it is hereby ordered that the amount of $20,269.00
representing funds collected under the Illinois Not-For-Profit
Dispute Resolution Act for 1995 but not disbursed, shall be disbursed
to the County Treasurer of Cook County for the administration
of justice in the Circuit Court of Cook County.
Dated, this 16th day of February 1996. This order shall
be spread upon the records of this Court and published.
