Illinois Appellate Court
Civil Court
Mortgage Foreclosure
Defendant filed Section 2-1401 Petition seeking to quash service in foreclosure proceeding. Section 15-1505.6 of Mortgage Foreclosure Law, to object to personal jurisdiction, is a procedural change in the law, and it applies retroactively. By changing deadline for when a party must move to quash service, law prescribes method of enforcing rights and directs how a suit proceeds. Waiting more than 60 days after appearing or participating in hearing causes waiver of objection to personal jurisdiction. (DELORT and HARRIS, concurring.)
