If the Illinois state police has busted a party, what is their deadline to file it with the state's attorney?

Answer 1

Without describing a bit more in detail just what "busted a party" includes...it's difficult to determine their course of action.

If you mean the State Police broke up a bunch of minors consumming alcoholic beverages versus a huge drug bust then I doubt there'd be a formal case.

Additionally, normally, cases initiated by state officers is handled within the District or Circuit courts of the jurisdiction where the offense occurred....not through the State Attorney's Office.

Best wishes.

Answer 2

What do you mean by "busted a party?". To me... that's just breaking up a party that may be too loud and/or rowdy. There would be nothing to file with the State Attorney. If someone was arrested and charged with something, that's different. If someone was not arrested but may have committed a misdemeanor charge - outside the officer's presence, the police could file a report to the State Attorney's Officer for them to decide whether or not to bring charges. Most Misdemeanor charges have to be filed within a year, but they normally make a decision either way rather quickly and if charges are filed, then a warrant for that person's arrest would be issued.
