Sec. 5. If any person makes retail sales as a transient merchant or itinerant vendor without having obtained a license under Section 4 of this Act, the licensing agency may hold the inventory, truck or other personal property of the person until he obtains a license to conduct business as a transient merchant or itinerant vendor. If the property has been held by the licensing agency for more than 60 days and the person whose property is being held has not obtained a license under Section 4 of this Act, the licensing agency, or the unit of government of which it is a branch, office or department, may petition the circuit court for an order for the sale of the property being held.
If the court finds that the person whose property is held has not obtained a license under Section 4 of this Act, the court may order the licensing agency or unit of government to sell the property. Proceeds of the sale of the property, less reimbursement to the licensing agency of the reasonable expenses of storage and sale of the property, shall be deposited in the treasury of the county, city or other unit of government of which the licensing agency is a branch, office or department.
