Here's a list of front seat laws by state. There are no laws on the back seat issue in Illinois, only laws that say [a]ny person transporting a child under the age of 8 years shall be responsible for securing that child in an appropriate child restraint system, more commonly called a child safety seat..
- A defendant shall serve his answer within 30 days after service of the summons and complaint upon him. A party served with a pleading stating a crossclaim against him shall serve an answer thereto within 30 days after service upon him.
1)How long does it take for the summons to come from the date of the incident (the reason i ask is that i want to go out of the country & i don't want to go against the law ) It's impossible to state a certain date; probably no more than three months, but we've had reports here of charges taking much longer to be filed.
