Rodriquez v. The Department of Financial and Professional Regulation

Statutory fees available for invalidating an administrative rule must be requested while the court invalidating the rule retains jurisdiction over the underlying issue. Thus, fee petition per Section 10-55(c) of Illinois Administrative Procedure Act must be filed with the initial complaint or brought while the circuit or appellate court retains jurisdiction. (KILBRIDE, FREEMAN, THOMAS, KARMEIER, BURKE, and THEIS, concurring.)
