A BILL FOR

 

SB1588LRB101 10760 LNS 55882 b

1    AN ACT concerning harassment.
 
2    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3represented in the General Assembly:
 
4    Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the Sexual
5Harassment No Contact Order Act.
 
6    Section 5. Purpose. Sexual harassment is a form of sex
7discrimination based on an individual's actual or perceived sex
8or gender that includes unwelcome sexual advances, requests for
9sexual favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a
10sexual nature. In some instances, sexual harassment can cause
11severe emotional and physical distress, yet does not rise to a
12criminal offense. In these situations, the person who is the
13subject of the sexual harassment should be able to seek a civil
14remedy requiring only that the person committing the sexual
15harassment stay away from the victim. The purpose of this Act
16is to prevent harassment that is sexual in nature by
17co-workers, neighbors, strangers, and acquaintances.
 
18    Section 10. Definitions. As used in this Act:
19    "Contact" includes any contact with the petitioner that is
20initiated or continued without the petitioner's consent, or
21that is in disregard of the petitioner's expressed desire that
22the contact be avoided or discontinued, including, but not

 

 

SB1588- 2 -LRB101 10760 LNS 55882 b

1limited to: being in the physical presence of the petitioner;
2intentionally appearing within the sight of the petitioner;
3approaching or confronting the petitioner in a public place or
4on private property; appearing at the workplace or residence of
5the petitioner; entering onto or remaining on property owned,
6leased, or occupied by the petitioner; or placing an object on,
7or delivering an object to, property owned, leased, or occupied
8by the petitioner.
9    "Course of conduct" means 2 or more acts, including, but
10not limited to, acts in which a respondent directly,
11indirectly, or through third parties, by any action, method,
12device, or means: sexually harasses; makes unwelcome sexual
13advances, requests, or threats; or engages in other contact
14that is sexual in nature. "Course of conduct" includes contact
15via electronic communications. The incarceration of a person in
16a penal institution who commits the course of conduct is not a
17bar to relief under this Act.
18    "Emotional distress" means significant mental suffering,
19anxiety, or alarm.
20    "Petitioner" means any named petitioner for the sexual
21harassment no contact order or any named complainant of sexual
22harassment on whose behalf the petition is brought.
23    "Reasonable person" means a person in the petitioner's
24circumstances with the petitioner's knowledge of the
25respondent and the respondent's prior acts.
26    "Sexual harassment" means engaging in a course of conduct,

 

 

SB1588- 3 -LRB101 10760 LNS 55882 b

1as defined by this Section, that is directed at a specific
2person based on that individual's actual or perceived sex or
3gender and that would cause a reasonable person emotional
4distress.
5    "Sexual harassment no contact order" means an emergency
6order or plenary order granted under this Act. "Sexual
7harassment no contact order" includes a remedy authorized by
8Section 80.
 
9    Section 15. Persons protected by this Act. If relief is not
10available to the petitioner under the Illinois Domestic
11Violence Act of 1986, the Stalking No Contact Order Act, or the
12Civil No Contact Order Act, a petition for a sexual harassment
13no contact order may be filed by a person:
14    (1) who is the subject of sexual harassment; or
15    (2) on behalf of a minor child or an adult who is a subject
16of sexual harassment but, because of age, disability, health,
17or inaccessibility, cannot file the petition.
 
18    Section 20. Commencement of action; filing fees.
19    (a) An action for a sexual harassment no contact order may
20be commenced:

3    Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963.
4    (b) If the petitioner is represented by the State,
5withdrawal or dismissal of a petition for a sexual harassment
6no contact order prior to adjudication shall operate as a
7dismissal without prejudice. No action for a sexual harassment
8no contact order shall be dismissed solely because the
9respondent is being prosecuted for a crime against the
10petitioner. For an action commenced under paragraph (2) of
11subsection (a) of this Section, dismissal of the conjoined case
12(or a finding of not guilty) shall not require dismissal of the
13action for a sexual harassment no contact order; instead, it
14may be treated as an independent action and, if necessary and
15appropriate, transferred to a different court or division.
16    (c) No fee shall be charged by the clerk of the court for
17filing a petition, or modifying or certifying an order, under
18this Act. No fee shall be charged by the sheriff for service by
19the sheriff of a petition, rule, motion, or order in an action
20commenced under this Section.
21    (d) The court shall provide, through the office of the
22clerk of the court, simplified forms for the filing of a
23petition under this Section by a person not represented by

3    (b) An action for a sexual harassment no contact order is
4an expedited proceeding. Continuances shall be granted only for
5good cause shown and kept to the minimum reasonable duration,

7    Section 80. Sexual harassment no contact orders; remedies.
8    (a) If the court finds that the petitioner has been a
9victim of sexual harassment and the petitioner has satisfied
10the requirements of Section 95 on emergency orders or Section
11100 on plenary orders, a sexual harassment no contact order
12shall be issued. The petitioner shall not be denied a sexual
13harassment no contact order because the petitioner or the
14respondent is a minor. The court, when determining whether to
15issue a sexual harassment no contact order, may not require
16physical injury on the person of the petitioner. Modification
17and extension of a prior sexual harassment no contact order
18shall be in accordance with this Act.
19    (b) A sexual harassment no contact order shall do one or
20more of the following:
21        (1) prohibit the respondent from continued harassment
22    of the petitioner;
23        (2) order the respondent to have no contact with the
24    petitioner or a third person specifically named by the
25    court;

 

 

SB1588- 10 -LRB101 10760 LNS 55882 b

1        (3) prohibit the respondent from knowingly coming
2    within or knowingly remaining within a specified distance
3    of the petitioner or the petitioner's residence, school,
4    daycare, or place of employment, or any specified place
5    frequented by the petitioner; however, the court may order
6    the respondent to stay away from the respondent's own
7    residence, school, or place of employment only if the
8    respondent has been provided actual notice of the
9    opportunity to appear and be heard on the petition;
10        (4) if there was a reported threat of force with a
11    weapon, prohibit the respondent from possessing a Firearm
12    Owner's Identification Card or possessing or buying a
13    firearm; and
14        (5) order other injunctive relief the court determines
15    to be necessary to protect the petitioner or a third party
16    specifically named by the court.
17    (c) If the petitioner and the respondent attend the same
18public, private, or nonpublic elementary, middle, or high
19school, the court, when issuing a sexual harassment no contact
20order and providing relief, shall consider the severity of the
21act, any continuing physical danger or emotional distress to
22the petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to the
23petitioner and respondent under federal and State law, the
24availability of a transfer of the respondent to another school,
25a change of placement or a change of program of the respondent,
26the expense, difficulty, and educational disruption that would

 

 

SB1588- 11 -LRB101 10760 LNS 55882 b

1be caused by a transfer of the respondent to another school,
2and any other relevant facts of the case. The court may order
3that the respondent not attend the public, private, or
4nonpublic elementary, middle, or high school attended by the
5petitioner, order that the respondent accept a change of
6placement or program, as determined by the school district or
7private or nonpublic school, or place restrictions on the
8respondent's movements within the school attended by the
9petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of proving by a
10preponderance of the evidence that a transfer, change of
11placement, or change of program of the respondent is not
12available. The respondent also bears the burden of production
13with respect to the expense, difficulty, and educational
14disruption that would be caused by a transfer of the respondent
15to another school. A transfer, change of placement, or change
16of program is not unavailable to the respondent solely on the
17ground that the respondent does not agree with the school
18district's or private or nonpublic school's transfer, change of
19placement, or change of program or solely on the ground that
20the respondent fails or refuses to consent to or otherwise does
21not take an action required to effectuate a transfer, change of
22placement, or change of program. If a court orders a respondent
23to stay away from the public, private, or nonpublic school
24attended by the petitioner and the respondent requests a
25transfer to another attendance center within the respondent's
26school district or private or nonpublic school, the school

 

 

SB1588- 12 -LRB101 10760 LNS 55882 b

1district or private or nonpublic school shall have sole
2discretion to determine the attendance center to which the
3respondent is transferred. If the court order results in a
4transfer of the minor respondent to another attendance center,
5a change in the respondent's placement, or a change of the
6respondent's program, the parent, guardian, or legal custodian
7of the respondent is responsible for transportation and other
8costs associated with the transfer or change.
9    (d) The court may order the parent, guardian, or legal
10custodian of a minor respondent to take certain actions or to
11refrain from taking certain actions to ensure that the
12respondent complies with the order. If the court orders a
13transfer of the respondent to another school, the parent,
14guardian, or legal custodian of the respondent is responsible
15for transportation and other costs associated with the change
16of school by the respondent.
17    (e) The court shall not hold a school district or private
18or nonpublic school or any of its employees in civil or
19criminal contempt unless the school district or private or
20nonpublic school has been allowed to intervene.
21    (f) The court may hold a parent, guardian, or legal
22custodian of a minor respondent in civil or criminal contempt
23for a violation of any provision of any order entered under
24this Act for conduct of the minor respondent in violation of
25this Act if the parent, guardian, or legal custodian directed,
26encouraged, or assisted the respondent minor in the conduct.

 

 

SB1588- 13 -LRB101 10760 LNS 55882 b

1    (g) The court may award the petitioner costs and attorney's
2fees if a sexual harassment no contact order is granted.
3    (h) Monetary damages are not recoverable as a remedy.
4    (i) If the sexual harassment no contact order prohibits the
5respondent from possessing a Firearm Owner's Identification
6Card or possessing or buying firearms, the court shall
7confiscate the respondent's Firearm Owner's Identification
8Card and immediately return the card to the Department of State
9Police Firearm Owner's Identification Card Office.
 
10    Section 85. Mutual orders prohibited. Mutual sexual
11harassment no contact orders are prohibited. Correlative
12separate orders undermine the purposes of this Act. If separate
13orders are sought, both must comply with all provisions of this
14Act.
 
15    Section 90. Accountability for actions of others. For the
16purposes of issuing a sexual harassment no contact order,
17deciding what remedies should be included, and enforcing the
18order, Article 5 of the Criminal Code of 2012 governs whether a
19respondent is legally accountable for the conduct of another
20person.
 
21    Section 95. Emergency sexual harassment no contact order.
22    (a) An emergency sexual harassment no contact order shall
23be issued if the petitioner satisfies the requirements of this

 

 

SB1588- 14 -LRB101 10760 LNS 55882 b

1subsection (a). The petitioner shall establish that:
2        (1) the court has jurisdiction under Section 50;
3        (2) the requirements of Section 80 are satisfied; and
4        (3) there is good cause to grant the remedy, regardless
5    of prior service of process or of notice upon the
6    respondent, because the harm that the remedy is intended to
7    prevent would be likely to occur if the respondent were
8    given any prior notice, or greater notice than was actually
9    given, of the petitioner's efforts to obtain judicial
10    relief.
11    An emergency sexual harassment no contact order shall be
12issued by the court if it appears from the contents of the
13petition and the examination of the petitioner that the
14averments are sufficient to indicate sexual harassment by the
15respondent and to support the granting of relief under the
16issuance of the sexual harassment no contact order.
17    An emergency sexual harassment no contact order shall be
18issued if the court finds that items (1), (2), and (3) of this
19subsection (a) are met.
20    (b) If the respondent appears in court for the hearing for
21an emergency order, he or she may elect to file a general
22appearance and testify. Any resulting order may be an emergency
23order, governed by this Section. Notwithstanding the
24requirements of this Section, if all requirements of Section
25100 have been met, the court may issue a plenary order.
26    (c) Emergency orders; court holidays and evenings.

 

 

SB1588- 15 -LRB101 10760 LNS 55882 b

1        (1) If the court is unavailable at the close of
2    business, the petitioner may file a petition for a 21-day
3    emergency order before any available circuit judge or
4    associate judge who may grant relief under this Act. If the
5    judge finds that there is an immediate and present danger
6    of abuse against the petitioner and that the petitioner has
7    satisfied the prerequisites set forth in subsection (a),
8    that judge may issue an emergency sexual harassment no
9    contact order.
10        (2) The chief judge of the circuit court may designate
11    for each county in the circuit at least one judge to be
12    reasonably available to issue orally, by telephone, by
13    facsimile, or otherwise, an emergency sexual harassment no
14    contact order at all times, regardless of whether the court
15    is in session.
16        (3) Any order issued under this Section and any
17    documentation in support of the order shall be certified on
18    the next court day to the appropriate court. The clerk of
19    that court shall immediately assign a case number, file the
20    petition, order, and other documents with the court, enter
21    the order of record, and file it with the sheriff for
22    service in accordance with Section 60. Filing the petition
23    shall commence proceedings for further relief under
24    Section 20. Failure to comply with the requirements of this
25    paragraph (3) does not affect the validity of the order.
 

 

 

SB1588- 16 -LRB101 10760 LNS 55882 b

1    Section 100. Plenary sexual harassment no contact order.
2The court shall issue a plenary sexual harassment no contact
3order if the petitioner has served notice of the hearing for
4that order on the respondent, in accordance with Section 65,
5and has satisfied the requirements of this Section. The
6petitioner must establish that:
7        (1) the court has jurisdiction under Section 50 of this
8    Act;
9        (2) the requirements of Section 80 are satisfied;
10        (3) a general appearance was made or filed by or for
11    the respondent or process was served on the respondent in
12    the manner required by Section 60; and
13        (4) the respondent has answered or is in default.
 
14    Section 105. Duration and extension of orders.
15    (a) Unless reopened or extended or voided by entry of an
16order of greater duration, an emergency order shall be
17effective for not less than 14 nor more than 21 days.
18    (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, a plenary
19sexual harassment no contact order shall be effective for a
20fixed period not to exceed 2 years. A sexual harassment no
21contact order entered in conjunction with a criminal
22prosecution or delinquency petition shall remain in effect as
23provided in Section 112A-20 of the Code of Criminal Procedure
24of 1963.
25    (c) An emergency or plenary order may be extended one or

 

 

SB1588- 17 -LRB101 10760 LNS 55882 b

1more times, as required, if the requirements of Section 95 or
2100, as appropriate, are satisfied. If the motion for extension
3is uncontested and the petitioner seeks no modification of the
4order, the order may be extended on the basis of the
5petitioner's motion or affidavit stating that there has been no
6material change in relevant circumstances since the entry of
7the order and stating the reason for the requested extension.
8Extensions may be granted only in open court and not under the
9provisions of subsection (c) of Section 95, which applies only
10if the court is unavailable at the close of business or on a
11court holiday.
12    (d) A sexual harassment no contact order that would expire
13on a court holiday shall instead expire at the close of the
14next court business day.
15    (e) The practice of dismissing or suspending a criminal
16prosecution in exchange for the issuance of a sexual harassment
17no contact order undermines the purposes of this Act. This
18Section shall not be construed as encouraging that practice.
 
19    Section 110. Contents of orders.
20    (a) A sexual harassment no contact order shall describe
21each remedy granted by the court, in reasonable detail and not
22by reference to any other document, so that the respondent may

24doing.

11custodian of a minor respondent to take certain actions or to
12refrain from taking certain actions to ensure that the
13respondent complies with the order. If the court orders a
14transfer of the respondent to another school, the parent,
15guardian, or legal custodian of the respondent is responsible
16for transportation and other costs associated with the change
17of school by the respondent.
18    (d) The court shall not hold a school district or private
19or nonpublic school or any of its employees in civil or
20criminal contempt unless the school district or private or
21nonpublic school has been allowed to intervene.
22    (e) The court may hold a parent, guardian, or legal
