Allows for injunctive or declaratory relief. Prohibits a person, business, or association from soliciting, selling, or trading on the Internet a State's Attorney's personal information with the intent to pose an imminent and serious threat to the health and safety of the State's Attorney or the State's Attorney's immediate family. Makes it a Class 3 felony to knowingly post personal information of a State's Attorney or the State's Attorney's immediate family, if the person knows or reasonably should know the posting poses an imminent and serious threat to the health and safety of the State's Attorney or his or her immediate family, and the posting is a proximate cause of bodily injury or death of the State's Attorney or a member of his or her immediate family.
