If a sentence is vacated on appeal or on collateral attack due to the failure of the trier of fact at trial to determine beyond a reasonable doubt the existence of a fact (other than a prior conviction) necessary to increase the punishment for the offense beyond the statutory maximum otherwise applicable, either the defendant may be re-sentenced to a term within the range otherwise provided or, if the State files notice of its intention to again seek the extended sentence, the defendant shall be afforded a new trial. (b) If a conviction or sentence has been set aside on direct review or on collateral attack and the court determines by clear and convincing evidence that the defendant was factually innocent of the charge, the court shall enter an order expunging the record of arrest from the official records of the arresting authority and order that the records of the clerk of the circuit court and Department of State Police be sealed until further order of the court upon good cause shown or as otherwise provided herein, and the name of the defendant obliterated from the official index requested to be kept by the circuit court clerk under Section 16 of the Clerks of Courts Act in connection with the arrest and conviction for the offense but the order shall not affect any index issued by the circuit court clerk before the entry of the order.

67 [March 26, 2001] erect appropriate plaques along this route in recognition of the Veteran's Memorial Parkway; and be it further RESOLVED, That a suitable copy of this resolution be delivered to the Secretary of the Department of Transportation. HOUSE RESOLUTION 158 Offered by Representative Berns: WHEREAS, Throughout history brave Americans have shed their blood during wars and conflicts to preserve, protect, and defend the foundation of the principles of democracy and freedom; and WHEREAS, Many of those that have served have been the brave men and women of the State of Illinois; and WHEREAS, In every military conflict and national time of need since 1818, the brave men and women of the State of Illinois have risen to the cause of defending democracy; and WHEREAS, These brave men and women often left behind family, friends, farms, and business, and often many of them were to never return, making the ultimate sacrifice for their country; and WHEREAS, With the signing of the Armistice ending the "War to End All Wars", WWI on November 11th 1918, the veterans of Illinois were given a holiday of solemn remembrance and thanks from their countrymen which later came to be known as Veteran's Day; and WHEREAS, The people of the great State of Illinois wish to thank those numerous veterans for their sacrifices and service; therefore, be it RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that the portion of Interstate 74 between the intersection of Interstate Route 74 with Interstate Route 57 the intersection of Interstate Route 74 with U.S. Route 45 is designated as the Veterans Memorial Parkway; and be it further RESOLVED, That the Department of Transportation is requested to erect appropriate plaques along this route in recognition of the Veteran's Memorial Parkway; and be it further RESOLVED, That a suitable copy of this resolution be delivered to the Secretary of the Department of Transportation. HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION 19 Offered by Representative Hartke: WHEREAS, There are over 48,000 adults and juveniles incarcerated in 36 correctional facilities run by the State of Illinois; and WHEREAS, Despite problems of overcrowding and understaffing, these prisons have an excellent record of maintaining the public safety; and WHEREAS, In other states where private prisons have made encroachments, correctional security has often been significantly compromised, resulting in more serious injuries to staff and inmates, as well as a growing number of inmate escapes; and WHEREAS, One of the primary causes of such unsafe conditions in private prisons is the poor training, high turnover, and low compensation of their employees; and WHEREAS, The Illinois General Assembly has recognized that "issues of liability, accountability, and cost warrant a prohibition of the ownership, operation, or management of correctional facilities by for-profit contractors" by its enactment of a moratorium against private prisons; and WHEREAS, In spite of that moratorium, attempts are still being made to privatize operations of the State's correctional facilities through incremental measures; and WHEREAS, The Department of Corrections currently contracts out medical services at its facilities, which has led to difficulty in recruiting and retaining health care professionals and hardships for employees, including bounced pay checks from fly-by-night contractors; and WHEREAS, The Fiscal Year 2002 budget submitted to the General
[March 26, 2001] 68 Assembly by Governor Ryan would allow for privatization of a number of important functions that impact prison security at the new Kewanee Youth Center and Lawrence Correctional Center, including dietary, medical, commissary, and educational services; and WHEREAS, The privatization of such support functions would be detrimental to the efficient and secure function of these facilities and is therefore contrary to the intent of the Private Correctional Facility Moratorium Act; and WHEREAS, Proposed legislation is making another attempt to foster privatization in the Illinois prison system that would allow certain inmates to be housed in private nursing homes; and WHEREAS, The establishment of such nursing homes could lead to situations where inmates who should be incarcerated are living in unsecured settings; therefore, be it RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY- SECOND GENERAL ASSEMBLY, THE SENATE CONCURRING HEREIN, that the State of Illinois affirm its commitment to a secure, safe, and effective State prison system by forestalling efforts to incrementally privatize operations of the Department of Corrections; and be it further RESOLVED, That the Department of Corrections revise its budget to allow for the dietary, educational, health, and commissary services at Kewanee Youth Center and Lawrence Correctional Center to be provided by employees of the Department of Corrections; and be it further RESOLVED, That the General Assembly supports the continued examination of the operations of Department of Correction's medical vendors that has been undertaken by the House Prison Reform Task Force; and be it further RESOLVED, That the General Assembly opposes the housing of convicted persons in private nursing home settings; and be it further RESOLVED, That the Department of Corrections shall, prior to the privatization of any aspect of operations at a State correctional facility, seek the authorization of the General Assembly to request bids for any services that are normally performed by employees of the Department of Corrections; and be it further RESOLVED, That a suitable copy of this resolution be delivered to the Director of Corrections.
