OIFTIICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
LISA MADIGAN                       February 1, 2013
ATTORNEY GENERAL
Honorable Tim Mapes
Clerk of the House
402 Capitol Building
Springfield, IL 62706
Dear Clerk Mapes:
I have set forth on the enclosed page collection statistics for the Attorney General's Office
for calendar year 2012 as required by § 2 of the Uncollected State Claims Act (30 ILCS 205/2).
These statistics reflect cases referred to this Office by other agencies for collection. These cases
involve a variety of receivables, including taxes, damage to State property, child support, unpaid
educational loans, fines, and penalties. Collections for these receivables totaled $570,925,134.84.
The attached statistics do not reflect a number of important collection activities of the
Attorney General's Office that do not originate with cases referred by other agencies, however. For
example, they do not include Illinois' 2012 share of the proceeds of the settlement of the litigation
instituted by this Office against the tobacco industry, which totaled $273,739,561.58. Likewise,
these statistics do not include the Illinois Estate Tax which is administered directly by the Attorney
General. During 2012, the Office issued 1504 certificates of tax determination and discharge
reflecting estate tax revenues in the amount of $273,425,613.27. When the totals from these latter
categories are added to the numbers described in paragraph one, the combined collections for the
Office of the Attorney General in 2012 total $1,118,090,309.69.
Sincerely,
Lisa Madigan
Enclosure
