Illinois Compiled Statutes - Full Text
Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.
(750 ILCS 65/5) (from Ch. 40, par. 1005)
Sec. 5.
Neither husband or wife shall be liable for the debts or
liabilities of the other incurred before marriage, and (except as herein
otherwise provided) they shall not be liable for the separate debts of each
other, nor shall the wages, earnings or property of either, nor the rent or
income of such property, be liable for the separate debts of the other.
