 7        Sec.   114-15.   Motion   for  genetic  marker  groupings
 8    comparison analysis.
 9        (a)  In a capital case, the defendant may make  a  motion
10    for  a  court   order before trial for comparison analysis by
11    the Department of  State Police  with  those  genetic  marker
12    groupings  maintained   under subsection (f) of Section 5-4-3

18             (2)  The defendant seeks for the Department of State
19        Police  to  identify    genetic  marker  groupings   from

21        to the  alleged offense.
22             (3)  The  defendant  seeks  comparison  analysis  of
23        genetic   marker   groupings   of   the   evidence  under

28             (4)  Genetic   marker   grouping  analysis  must  be
29        performed by a  laboratory  compliant  with  the  quality
30        assurance  standards  required by the Department of State
31        Police for genetic marker grouping analysis comparisons.

 3    that  the reason for the pardon is the actual innocence of an
 4    individual whose DNA record has been stored in the  State  or
 5    national  DNA  identification  index  in accordance with this
 6    Section by the Illinois Department of State Police,  the  DNA
 7    record  shall  be expunged from the DNA identification index,
 8    and the Department shall  by  rule  prescribe  procedures  to
 9    ensure  that  the  record and any samples, analyses, or other

11    tissue samples and other procedures for the operation of this
12    Act.  The provisions of the Administrative Review  Law  shall
13    apply to all actions taken under the rules so promulgated.
14        (i)  A  person  required  to  provide a blood, saliva, or
15    tissue specimen shall cooperate with the  collection  of  the
16    specimen  and  any  deliberate act by that person intended to
17    impede, delay or stop the collection of the blood, saliva, or
18    tissue specimen is a Class A misdemeanor.
19        (j)  Any person required  by  subsection  (a)  to  submit
20    specimens  of  blood,  saliva,  or  tissue  to  the  Illinois

26    the  entire amount of the analysis fee shall be paid in full,
27    such schedule not to  exceed  24  months  from  the  time  of
28    conviction.  The inability to pay this analysis fee shall not
29    be the sole ground to incarcerate the person.
30        (k)  All analysis and categorization fees provided for by
31    subsection (j) shall be regulated as follows:
32             (1)  The  State  Offender  DNA Identification System

 5        collected  analysis  fee  to  offset administrative costs
 6        incurred in carrying  out  the  clerk's  responsibilities
 7        under this Section.
 8             (3)  Fees  deposited  into  the  State  Offender DNA

12        addition  to  any  allocations  made pursuant to existing
13        laws and shall be designated for  the  exclusive  use  of
14        State  crime  laboratories.   These uses may include, but
15        are not limited to, the following:
16                  (A)  Costs incurred in providing  analysis  and
17             genetic   marker   categorization   as  required  by
18             subsection (d).
19                  (B)  Costs  incurred  in  maintaining   genetic

31    any person or agency to collect a specimen, within the 45 day
32    period  shall in no way alter the obligation of the person to
33    submit such  specimen,  or  the  authority  of  the  Illinois
