Provides that the clerk of the court shall attach a copy of the notice to the mittimus or documents to be transmitted to the Illinois Department of Corrections and shall place a copy of the notice in the court file. Provides that when the Department receives a mittimus or court file information to which a notice is attached, the Department shall maintain a copy of the notice in its records including the sentenced inmate's master file and notify the State's Attorney, the court, and the parties identified in the notice of certain changes in the inmate's release date.
