5        may file an objection to the petition. All objections
6        shall be in writing, shall be filed with the circuit
7        court clerk, and shall state with specificity the basis
8        of the objection. Whenever a person who has been

1        date of service of the petition, the court shall enter
2        an order granting or denying the petition.
3            (C) Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
4        the court shall not deny a petition for sealing under

6        an outstanding legal financial obligation established,
7        imposed, or originated by a court, law enforcement
8        agency, or a municipal, State, county, or other unit of
9        local government, including, but not limited to, any
10        cost, assessment, fine, or fee. An outstanding legal
11        financial obligation does not include any court
12        ordered restitution to a victim under Section 5-5-6 of
13        the Unified Code of Corrections, unless the
14        restitution has been converted to a civil judgment.
15        Nothing in this subparagraph (C) waives, rescinds, or
16        abrogates a legal financial obligation or otherwise
17        eliminates or affects the right of the holder of any
18        financial obligation to pursue collection under
19        applicable federal, State, or local law.

21    set a date for a hearing and notify the petitioner and all

1    court shall hear evidence on whether the petition should or
2    should not be granted, and shall grant or deny the petition
3    to expunge or seal the records based on the evidence
4    presented at the hearing. The court may consider the
5    following:
6            (A) the strength of the evidence supporting the
7        defendant's conviction;
8            (B) the reasons for retention of the conviction
9        records by the State;
10            (C) the petitioner's age, criminal record history,
11        and employment history;
12            (D) the period of time between the petitioner's
13        arrest on the charge resulting in the conviction and
14        the filing of the petition under this Section; and
15            (E) the specific adverse consequences the
16        petitioner may be subject to if the petition is denied.
17        (8) Service of order. After entering an order to
18    expunge or seal records, the court must provide copies of
19    the order to the Department, in a form and manner
20    prescribed by the Department, to the petitioner, to the
21    State's Attorney or prosecutor charged with the duty of

1        shall not be entered into the official index required
2        to be kept by the circuit court clerk under Section 16
3        of the Clerks of Courts Act and shall be immediately
4        re-impounded upon the collection of the outstanding
5        financial obligations.
6            (F) Notwithstanding any other provision of this
7        Section, a circuit court clerk may access a sealed
8        record for the limited purpose of collecting payment

13    fee equivalent to the cost of processing any order to
14    expunge or seal records. Notwithstanding any provision of
15    the Clerks of Courts Act to the contrary, the circuit court
16    clerk may charge a fee equivalent to the cost associated
17    with the sealing or expungement of records by the circuit
18    court clerk. From the total filing fee collected for the
19    petition to seal or expunge, the circuit court clerk shall
20    deposit $10 into the Circuit Court Clerk Operation and
21    Administrative Fund, to be used to offset the costs
22    incurred by the circuit court clerk in performing the
23    additional duties required to serve the petition to seal or
24    expunge on all parties. The circuit court clerk shall
25    collect and forward the Department of State Police portion
26    of the fee to the Department and it shall be deposited in

 

 

HB3701- 30 -LRB101 09308 SLF 54403 b

1    the State Police Services Fund. If the record brought under
2    an expungement petition was previously sealed under this
3    Section, the fee for the expungement petition for that same
4    record shall be waived.
5        (11) Final Order. No court order issued under the
6    expungement or sealing provisions of this Section shall
7    become final for purposes of appeal until 30 days after
8    service of the order on the petitioner and all parties
9    entitled to notice of the petition.
10        (12) Motion to Vacate, Modify, or Reconsider. Under
11    Section 2-1203 of the Code of Civil Procedure, the
12    petitioner or any party entitled to notice may file a
13    motion to vacate, modify, or reconsider the order granting
14    or denying the petition to expunge or seal within 60 days
15    of service of the order. If filed more than 60 days after
16    service of the order, a petition to vacate, modify, or
17    reconsider shall comply with subsection (c) of Section
18    2-1401 of the Code of Civil Procedure. Upon filing of a
19    motion to vacate, modify, or reconsider, notice of the
20    motion shall be served upon the petitioner and all parties
21    entitled to notice of the petition.
22        (13) Effect of Order. An order granting a petition
23    under the expungement or sealing provisions of this Section
24    shall not be considered void because it fails to comply
25    with the provisions of this Section or because of any error
26    asserted in a motion to vacate, modify, or reconsider. The

 

 

HB3701- 31 -LRB101 09308 SLF 54403 b

1    circuit court retains jurisdiction to determine whether
2    the order is voidable and to vacate, modify, or reconsider
3    its terms based on a motion filed under paragraph (12) of
4    this subsection (d).
5        (14) Compliance with Order Granting Petition to Seal
6    Records. Unless a court has entered a stay of an order
7    granting a petition to seal, all parties entitled to notice
8    of the petition must fully comply with the terms of the
9    order within 60 days of service of the order even if a
10    party is seeking relief from the order through a motion
11    filed under paragraph (12) of this subsection (d) or is
12    appealing the order.
13        (15) Compliance with Order Granting Petition to
14    Expunge Records. While a party is seeking relief from the
15    order granting the petition to expunge through a motion
16    filed under paragraph (12) of this subsection (d) or is
17    appealing the order, and unless a court has entered a stay
18    of that order, the parties entitled to notice of the
19    petition must seal, but need not expunge, the records until
20    there is a final order on the motion for relief or, in the
21    case of an appeal, the issuance of that court's mandate.
22        (16) The changes to this subsection (d) made by Public
23    Act 98-163 apply to all petitions pending on August 5, 2013
24    (the effective date of Public Act 98-163) and to all orders
25    ruling on a petition to expunge or seal on or after August
26    5, 2013 (the effective date of Public Act 98-163).

7    Section 15. The Juvenile Court Act of 1987 is amended by
8changing Sections 5-710 and 5-750 as follows:
 
9    (705 ILCS 405/5-710)
10    Sec. 5-710. Kinds of sentencing orders.
11    (1) The following kinds of sentencing orders may be made in
12respect of wards of the court:
13        (a) Except as provided in Sections 5-805, 5-810, and
14    5-815, a minor who is found guilty under Section 5-620 may
15    be:
16            (i) put on probation or conditional discharge and
17        released to his or her parents, guardian or legal
18        custodian, provided, however, that any such minor who
19        is not committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice
20        under this subsection and who is found to be a
21        delinquent for an offense which is first degree murder,
22        a Class X felony, or a forcible felony shall be placed
23        on probation;
24            (ii) placed in accordance with Section 5-740, with

 

 

HB3701- 42 -LRB101 09308 SLF 54403 b

1        or without also being put on probation or conditional
2        discharge;
3            (iii) required to undergo a substance abuse
4        assessment conducted by a licensed provider and
5        participate in the indicated clinical level of care;
6            (iv) on and after the effective date of this
7        amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly and before
8        January 1, 2017, placed in the guardianship of the
9        Department of Children and Family Services, but only if
10        the delinquent minor is under 16 years of age or,
11        pursuant to Article II of this Act, a minor for whom an
12        independent basis of abuse, neglect, or dependency
13        exists. On and after January 1, 2017, placed in the
14        guardianship of the Department of Children and Family
15        Services, but only if the delinquent minor is under 15
16        years of age or, pursuant to Article II of this Act, a
17        minor for whom an independent basis of abuse, neglect,
18        or dependency exists. An independent basis exists when
19        the allegations or adjudication of abuse, neglect, or
20        dependency do not arise from the same facts, incident,
21        or circumstances which give rise to a charge or
22        adjudication of delinquency;
23            (v) placed in detention for a period not to exceed
24        30 days, either as the exclusive order of disposition
25        or, where appropriate, in conjunction with any other

HB3701- 43 -LRB101 09308 SLF 54403 b

1        provided that any such detention shall be in a juvenile
2        detention home and the minor so detained shall be 10
3        years of age or older. However, the 30-day limitation
4        may be extended by further order of the court for a
5        minor under age 15 committed to the Department of
6        Children and Family Services if the court finds that
7        the minor is a danger to himself or others. The minor
8        shall be given credit on the sentencing order of
9        detention for time spent in detention under Sections
10        5-501, 5-601, 5-710, or 5-720 of this Article as a
11        result of the offense for which the sentencing order
12        was imposed. The court may grant credit on a sentencing
13        order of detention entered under a violation of
14        probation or violation of conditional discharge under
15        Section 5-720 of this Article for time spent in
16        detention before the filing of the petition alleging
17        the violation. A minor shall not be deprived of credit
18        for time spent in detention before the filing of a
19        violation of probation or conditional discharge
20        alleging the same or related act or acts. The
21        limitation that the minor shall only be placed in a
22        juvenile detention home does not apply as follows:
23            Persons 18 years of age and older who have a
24        petition of delinquency filed against them may be

2        against the person, these factors, among other
3        matters, shall be considered:
4                (A) the age of the person;
5                (B) any previous delinquent or criminal
6            history of the person;
7                (C) any previous abuse or neglect history of
8            the person;
9                (D) any mental health history of the person;
10            and
11                (E) any educational history of the person;
12            (vi) ordered partially or completely emancipated
13        in accordance with the provisions of the Emancipation
14        of Minors Act;
15            (vii) subject to having his or her driver's license
16        or driving privileges suspended for such time as
17        determined by the court but only until he or she
18        attains 18 years of age;
19            (viii) put on probation or conditional discharge
20        and placed in detention under Section 3-6039 of the
21        Counties Code for a period not to exceed the period of
22        incarceration permitted by law for adults found guilty
23        of the same offense or offenses for which the minor was
24        adjudicated delinquent, and in any event no longer than
25        upon attainment of age 21; this subdivision (viii)
26        notwithstanding any contrary provision of the law;

 

 

HB3701- 45 -LRB101 09308 SLF 54403 b

1            (ix) ordered to undergo a medical or other
2        procedure to have a tattoo symbolizing allegiance to a
3        street gang removed from his or her body; or
4            (x) placed in electronic monitoring or home
5        detention under Part 7A of this Article.
6        (b) A minor found to be guilty may be committed to the
7    Department of Juvenile Justice under Section 5-750 if the
8    minor is at least 13 years and under 20 years of age,
9    provided that the commitment to the Department of Juvenile
10    Justice shall be made only if the minor was found guilty of
11    a felony offense or first degree murder. The court shall
12    include in the sentencing order any pre-custody credits the
13    minor is entitled to under Section 5-4.5-100 of the Unified
14    Code of Corrections. The time during which a minor is in
15    custody before being released upon the request of a parent,
16    guardian or legal custodian shall also be considered as
17    time spent in custody.
18        (c) When a minor is found to be guilty for an offense
19    which is a violation of the Illinois Controlled Substances
20    Act, the Cannabis Control Act, or the Methamphetamine
21    Control and Community Protection Act and made a ward of the
22    court, the court may enter a disposition order requiring
23    the minor to undergo assessment, counseling or treatment in
24    a substance use disorder treatment program approved by the
25    Department of Human Services.
26    (2) Any sentencing order other than commitment to the

 

 

HB3701- 46 -LRB101 09308 SLF 54403 b

1Department of Juvenile Justice may provide for protective
2supervision under Section 5-725 and may include an order of
3protection under Section 5-730.
4    (3) Unless the sentencing order expressly so provides, it
5does not operate to close proceedings on the pending petition,
6but is subject to modification until final closing and
7discharge of the proceedings under Section 5-750.
8    (4) In addition to any other sentence, the court may order
9any minor found to be delinquent to make restitution, in
10monetary or non-monetary form, under the terms and conditions
11of Section 5-5-6 of the Unified Code of Corrections, except
12that the "presentencing hearing" referred to in that Section
13shall be the sentencing hearing for purposes of this Section.
14The parent, guardian or legal custodian of the minor may be
15ordered by the court to pay some or all of the restitution on
16the minor's behalf, pursuant to the Parental Responsibility
17Law. The State's Attorney is authorized to act on behalf of any
18victim in seeking restitution in proceedings under this
19Section, up to the maximum amount allowed in Section 5 of the
20Parental Responsibility Law.
21    (5) Any sentencing order where the minor is committed or
22placed in accordance with Section 5-740 shall provide for the
23parents or guardian of the estate of the minor to pay to the
24legal custodian or guardian of the person of the minor such
25sums as are determined by the custodian or guardian of the
26person of the minor as necessary for the minor's needs. The

4attend school or participate in a program of training, the
5truant officer or designated school official shall regularly
6report to the court if the minor is a chronic or habitual
7truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code. Notwithstanding
8any other provision of this Act, in instances in which
9educational services are to be provided to a minor in a
10residential facility where the minor has been placed by the
11court, costs incurred in the provision of those educational
12services must be allocated based on the requirements of the
13School Code.
14    (7) In no event shall a guilty minor be committed to the
15Department of Juvenile Justice for a period of time in excess
16of that period for which an adult could be committed for the
17same act. The court shall include in the sentencing order a
18limitation on the period of confinement not to exceed the
19maximum period of imprisonment the court could impose under
20Chapter 5 Article V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
21    (7.5) In no event shall a guilty minor be committed to the
22Department of Juvenile Justice or placed in detention when the
23act for which the minor was adjudicated delinquent would not be
24illegal if committed by an adult.
25    (7.6) In no event shall a guilty minor be committed to the

3with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The court shall
4also notify the victim if requested by the victim, and if the
5victim is under the age of 15 and if requested by the victim's
6parents or legal guardian, the court shall notify the victim's
7parents or the legal guardian, of the results of the test for
8infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The
9court shall provide information on the availability of HIV
10testing and counseling at the Department of Public Health
11facilities to all parties to whom the results of the testing
12are revealed. The court shall order that the cost of any test
13shall be paid by the county and may be taxed as costs against
14the minor.
15    (10) When a court finds a minor to be guilty the court
16shall, before entering a sentencing order under this Section,
17make a finding whether the offense committed either: (a) was
18related to or in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
19organized gang or was motivated by the minor's membership in or
20allegiance to an organized gang, or (b) involved a violation of
21subsection (a) of Section 12-7.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961
22or the Criminal Code of 2012, a violation of any Section of
23Article 24 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of
242012, or a violation of any statute that involved the wrongful
25use of a firearm. If the court determines the question in the
26affirmative, and the court does not commit the minor to the

 

 

HB3701- 51 -LRB101 09308 SLF 54403 b

1Department of Juvenile Justice, the court shall order the minor
2to perform community service for not less than 30 hours nor
3more than 120 hours, provided that community service is
4available in the jurisdiction and is funded and approved by the
5county board of the county where the offense was committed. The
6community service shall include, but need not be limited to,
7the cleanup and repair of any damage caused by a violation of
8Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal
9Code of 2012 and similar damage to property located in the
10municipality or county in which the violation occurred. When
11possible and reasonable, the community service shall be
12performed in the minor's neighborhood. This order shall be in
13addition to any other order authorized by this Section except
14for an order to place the minor in the custody of the
15Department of Juvenile Justice. For the purposes of this
16Section, "organized gang" has the meaning ascribed to it in
17Section 10 of the Illinois Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus
18Prevention Act.
19    (11) If the court determines that the offense was committed
20in furtherance of the criminal activities of an organized gang,
21as provided in subsection (10), and that the offense involved
22the operation or use of a motor vehicle or the use of a
23driver's license or permit, the court shall notify the
24Secretary of State of that determination and of the period for
25which the minor shall be denied driving privileges. If, at the
26time of the determination, the minor does not hold a driver's

 

 

HB3701- 52 -LRB101 09308 SLF 54403 b

1license or permit, the court shall provide that the minor shall
2not be issued a driver's license or permit until his or her
318th birthday. If the minor holds a driver's license or permit
4at the time of the determination, the court shall provide that
5the minor's driver's license or permit shall be revoked until
6his or her 21st birthday, or until a later date or occurrence
7determined by the court. If the minor holds a driver's license
8at the time of the determination, the court may direct the
9Secretary of State to issue the minor a judicial driving
10permit, also known as a JDP. The JDP shall be subject to the
11same terms as a JDP issued under Section 6-206.1 of the
12Illinois Vehicle Code, except that the court may direct that
13the JDP be effective immediately.
14    (12) If a minor is found to be guilty of a violation of
15subsection (a-7) of Section 1 of the Prevention of Tobacco Use
16by Minors Act, the court may, in its discretion, and upon
17recommendation by the State's Attorney, order that minor and
18his or her parents or legal guardian to attend a smoker's
19education or youth diversion program as defined in that Act if
20that program is available in the jurisdiction where the
21offender resides. Attendance at a smoker's education or youth
22diversion program shall be time-credited against any community
23service time imposed for any first violation of subsection
24(a-7) of Section 1 of that Act. In addition to any other
25penalty that the court may impose for a violation of subsection
26(a-7) of Section 1 of that Act, the court, upon request by the

 

 

HB3701- 53 -LRB101 09308 SLF 54403 b

1State's Attorney, may in its discretion require the offender to
2remit a fee for his or her attendance at a smoker's education
3or youth diversion program.
4    For purposes of this Section, "smoker's education program"
5or "youth diversion program" includes, but is not limited to, a
6seminar designed to educate a person on the physical and
7psychological effects of smoking tobacco products and the
8health consequences of smoking tobacco products that can be
9conducted with a locality's youth diversion program.
10    In addition to any other penalty that the court may impose
11under this subsection (12):
12        (a) If a minor violates subsection (a-7) of Section 1
13    of the Prevention of Tobacco Use by Minors Act, the court
14    may impose a sentence of 15 hours of community service or a
15    fine of $25 for a first violation.
16        (b) A second violation by a minor of subsection (a-7)
17    of Section 1 of that Act that occurs within 12 months after
18    the first violation is punishable by a fine of $50 and 25
19    hours of community service.
20        (c) A third or subsequent violation by a minor of
21    subsection (a-7) of Section 1 of that Act that occurs
22    within 12 months after the first violation is punishable by
23    a $100 fine and 30 hours of community service.
24        (d) Any second or subsequent violation not within the
25    12-month time period after the first violation is
26    punishable as provided for a first violation.

5    Sec. 5-750. Commitment to the Department of Juvenile
6Justice.
7    (1) Except as provided in subsection (2) of this Section,
8when any delinquent has been adjudged a ward of the court under
9this Act, the court may commit him or her to the Department of
10Juvenile Justice, if it finds that (a) his or her parents,
11guardian or legal custodian are unfit or are unable, for some
12reason other than financial circumstances alone, to care for,
13protect, train or discipline the minor, or are unwilling to do
14so, and the best interests of the minor and the public will not
15be served by placement under Section 5-740, or it is necessary
16to ensure the protection of the public from the consequences of
17criminal activity of the delinquent; and (b) commitment to the
18Department of Juvenile Justice is the least restrictive
19alternative based on evidence that efforts were made to locate
20less restrictive alternatives to secure confinement and the
21reasons why efforts were unsuccessful in locating a less
22restrictive alternative to secure confinement. Before the
23court commits a minor to the Department of Juvenile Justice, it
24shall make a finding that secure confinement is necessary,
25following a review of the following individualized factors:

 

 

HB3701- 55 -LRB101 09308 SLF 54403 b

1        (A) Age of the minor.
2        (B) Criminal background of the minor.
3        (C) Review of results of any assessments of the minor,
4    including child centered assessments such as the CANS.
5        (D) Educational background of the minor, indicating
6    whether the minor has ever been assessed for a learning
7    disability, and if so what services were provided as well
8    as any disciplinary incidents at school.
9        (E) Physical, mental and emotional health of the minor,
10    indicating whether the minor has ever been diagnosed with a
11    health issue and if so what services were provided and
12    whether the minor was compliant with services.
13        (F) Community based services that have been provided to
14    the minor, and whether the minor was compliant with the
15    services, and the reason the services were unsuccessful.
16        (G) Services within the Department of Juvenile Justice
17    that will meet the individualized needs of the minor.
18    (1.5) Before the court commits a minor to the Department of
19Juvenile Justice, the court must find reasonable efforts have
20been made to prevent or eliminate the need for the minor to be
21removed from the home, or reasonable efforts cannot, at this
22time, for good cause, prevent or eliminate the need for
23removal, and removal from home is in the best interests of the
24minor, the minor's family, and the public.
25    (2) When a minor of the age of at least 13 years is
26adjudged delinquent for the offense of first degree murder, the

1court shall declare the minor a ward of the court and order the
2minor committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice until the
3minor's 21st birthday, without the possibility of aftercare
4release, furlough, or non-emergency authorized absence for a
5period of 5 years from the date the minor was committed to the
6Department of Juvenile Justice, except that the time that a
7minor spent in custody for the instant offense before being
8committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice shall be
9considered as time credited towards that 5 year period. Upon
10release from a Department facility, a minor adjudged delinquent
11for first degree murder shall be placed on aftercare release
12until the age of 21, unless sooner discharged from aftercare
13release or custodianship is otherwise terminated in accordance
14with this Act or as otherwise provided for by law. Nothing in
15this subsection (2) shall preclude the State's Attorney from
16seeking to prosecute a minor as an adult as an alternative to
17proceeding under this Act.
18    (3) Except as provided in subsection (2), the commitment of
19a delinquent to the Department of Juvenile Justice shall be for
20an indeterminate term which shall automatically terminate upon
21the delinquent attaining the age of 21 years or upon completion
22of that period for which an adult could be committed for the
23same act, whichever occurs sooner, unless the delinquent is
24sooner discharged from aftercare release or custodianship is
25otherwise terminated in accordance with this Act or as
26otherwise provided for by law.

22by the Department of Juvenile Justice, and shall appoint the
23Director of Juvenile Justice legal custodian of the minor. The
24clerk of the court shall issue to the Director of Juvenile

3    (6) Whenever the Department of Juvenile Justice lawfully
4discharges from its custody and control a minor committed to
5it, the Director of Juvenile Justice shall petition the court
6for an order terminating his or her custodianship. The
7custodianship shall terminate automatically 30 days after
8receipt of the petition unless the court orders otherwise.
9    (7) If, while on aftercare release, a minor committed to
10the Department of Juvenile Justice who resides in this State is
11charged under the criminal laws of this State, the criminal
12laws of any other state, or the federal jurisdiction with
13similar penalties with an offense that could result in a

16Bureau of Prisons, the commitment to the Department of Juvenile
17Justice and all rights and duties created by that commitment
18are automatically suspended pending final disposition of the
