Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

Il non support punishment act

Has anyone ever had a case charged under this law? If so did It go any farther than the circuit judge and a slap on the wrist? It seems to be a good support law but doesn't seem to be enforced...where is it lacking the teeth it seems to have?
