Terms Used In Illinois Compiled Statutes 815 ILCS 180/50

  • Damages: Money paid by defendants to successful plaintiffs in civil cases to compensate the plaintiffs for their injuries.
     A creditor is not, by virtue of this Act, required to purchase collateral protection insurance or to otherwise insure collateral. A creditor shall not, by virtue of this Act, be liable to a debtor or to any other person for not purchasing collateral protection insurance, as a result of the amount or level of coverage of collateral protection insurance purchased by the creditor, or because the creditor purchased collateral protection insurance that protects only the interests of the creditor or less than all of the interests of the debtor. This Act shall not be deemed to create a cause of action for damages on behalf of the debtor or any other person in connection with the placement of collateral protection insurance.
