Motion To Quash Body Attachment

MOTION TO QUASH BODY ATTACHMENT. This form is used in Champaign County, Illinois, by a respondent who is seeking to have a body attachment order canceled. A body attachment is a type of court order similar to a warrant that authorizes law enforcement to take a person into custody, usually because they failed to appear in court or did not comply with a court order, often in family law or support-related cases. This form allows the respondent (the person against whom the body attachment was issued) to explain to the court why the order should be quashed, or set aside. The respondent must provide the date the body attachment was entered and state specific reasons why it should no longer remain in effect—such as having resolved the underlying issue, not receiving proper notice, or other valid circumstances. By filing this motion, the respondent is asking the court to review the situation and cancel the order so that they are no longer at risk of being taken into custody. www.FormsWorkflow.com
