On June 1, Illinois Governor Pat Quinn signed into law HB 3762, a bill that requires an Illinois court to stay for 90 days foreclosure proceedings against a mortgagor who is a servicemember of the military on active duty and has been deployed to a combat (or combat support) posting within the previous 12 months. The stay is not automatic and must be requested by the servicemember. The bill takes effect January 1, 2011.
