1exploits, such as PTSD, substance abuse, chronic state of
2duress. Task Force members shall further recommend funding for
3expansion and messaging campaigns of preliminary
4self-diagnosing technologies like the one described above.
5These objectives could be met by:
6        (1) Contacting an accredited agency, association, or
7    organization recognized in the field or fields of specific
8    study. Unbeknownst to the majority, many of the agencies
9    and organizations listed above receive grants and
10    allocations to assist communities with the very issues
11    being discussed in this Section.
12        (2) Normalizing help-seeking behaviors for both first
13    responders and their families through regular messaging
14    and peer support outreach, beginning with academy
15    curricula and continuing education throughout individuals'
16    careers.
17        (3) Funding and implementing PSA campaigns that
18    provide clear and concise calls to action about mental
19    health and wellness, resiliency, help-seeking, treatment,
20    and recovery.
21        (4) Promoting and raising awareness of not-for-profit
22    organizations currently available to assist individuals in
23    search of care and treatment. Organizations have intuitive
24    user-friendly sites, most of which have mobile
25    applications, so first responders can access at a moment's
26    notice. However, because of limited funds, these

 

 

HB4304- 38 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    organizations have a challenging time of getting the word
2    out there about their existence.
3        (5) Expanding Family and Medical Leave Act protections
4    for individuals voluntarily seeking preventative
5    treatment.
6        (6) Promoting and ensuring complete patient
7    confidentiality protections.
8    (d) Task Force members shall recommend that agencies and
9organizations incorporate the following training components
10into already existing modules and educational curriculums.
11Doing so could be done by:
12        (1) Bolstering academy and school curricula by
13    requiring depressive disorder training catered to PTSD,
14    substance abuse, and early detection techniques training,
15    taking into close consideration respective agency or
16    organization size, and the frequency and number of all
17    current federal and state mandatory examinations and
18    trainings expected respectively.
19        (2) Continuing to allocate or match federal and state
20    funds to maintain Mobile Training Units (MTUs).
21        (3) Incorporating a state certificate for peer support
22    training into already exiting statewide curriculums and
23    mandatory examinations, annual State Fire Marshal
24    examinations, and physical fitness examinations. The
25    subject matter of the certificate should have an emphasis
26    on mental health and wellness, as well as familiarization

 

 

HB4304- 39 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    with topics ranging from clinical social work, clinical
2    psychology, clinical behaviorist, and clinical psychiatry.
3        (4) Incorporating and performing statewide mental
4    health check-ins during the same times as already mandated
5    trainings. These checks are not to be compared or used as
6    measures of fitness for duty evaluations or structured
7    psychological examinations.
8        (5) Recommending comprehensive and evidence-based
9    training on the importance of preventative measures on the
10    topics of sleep, nutrition, mindfulness, and physical
11    movement.
12        (6) (Blank). Law enforcement agencies should provide
13    training on the Firearm Owner's Identification Card Act,
14    including seeking relief from the Illinois State Police
15    under Section 10 of the Firearm Owners Identification Card
16    Act and a FOID card being a continued condition of
17    employment under Section 7.2 of the Uniform Peace
18    Officers' Disciplinary Act.

2searches.
3    (a) To expel pupils guilty of gross disobedience or
4misconduct, including gross disobedience or misconduct
5perpetuated by electronic means, pursuant to subsection (b-20)
6of this Section, and no action shall lie against them for such
7expulsion. Expulsion shall take place only after the parents
8have been requested to appear at a meeting of the board, or
9with a hearing officer appointed by it, to discuss their
10child's behavior. Such request shall be made by registered or
11certified mail and shall state the time, place and purpose of
12the meeting. The board, or a hearing officer appointed by it,
13at such meeting shall state the reasons for dismissal and the
14date on which the expulsion is to become effective. If a
15hearing officer is appointed by the board, he shall report to
16the board a written summary of the evidence heard at the
17meeting and the board may take such action thereon as it finds
18appropriate. If the board acts to expel a pupil, the written
19expulsion decision shall detail the specific reasons why
20removing the pupil from the learning environment is in the
21best interest of the school. The expulsion decision shall also
22include a rationale as to the specific duration of the
23expulsion. An expelled pupil may be immediately transferred to
24an alternative program in the manner provided in Article 13A
25or 13B of this Code. A pupil must not be denied transfer
26because of the expulsion, except in cases in which such

 

 

HB4304- 79 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1transfer is deemed to cause a threat to the safety of students
2or staff in the alternative program.
3    (b) To suspend or by policy to authorize the
4superintendent of the district or the principal, assistant
5principal, or dean of students of any school to suspend pupils
6guilty of gross disobedience or misconduct, or to suspend
7pupils guilty of gross disobedience or misconduct on the
8school bus from riding the school bus, pursuant to subsections
9(b-15) and (b-20) of this Section, and no action shall lie
10against them for such suspension. The board may by policy
11authorize the superintendent of the district or the principal,
12assistant principal, or dean of students of any school to
13suspend pupils guilty of such acts for a period not to exceed
1410 school days. If a pupil is suspended due to gross
15disobedience or misconduct on a school bus, the board may
16suspend the pupil in excess of 10 school days for safety
17reasons.
18    Any suspension shall be reported immediately to the
19parents or guardian of a pupil along with a full statement of
20the reasons for such suspension and a notice of their right to
21a review. The school board must be given a summary of the
22notice, including the reason for the suspension and the
23suspension length. Upon request of the parents or guardian,
24the school board or a hearing officer appointed by it shall
25review such action of the superintendent or principal,
26assistant principal, or dean of students. At such review, the

 

 

HB4304- 80 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1parents or guardian of the pupil may appear and discuss the
2suspension with the board or its hearing officer. If a hearing
3officer is appointed by the board, he shall report to the board
4a written summary of the evidence heard at the meeting. After
5its hearing or upon receipt of the written report of its
6hearing officer, the board may take such action as it finds
7appropriate. If a student is suspended pursuant to this
8subsection (b), the board shall, in the written suspension
9decision, detail the specific act of gross disobedience or
10misconduct resulting in the decision to suspend. The
11suspension decision shall also include a rationale as to the
12specific duration of the suspension. A pupil who is suspended
13in excess of 20 school days may be immediately transferred to
14an alternative program in the manner provided in Article 13A
15or 13B of this Code. A pupil must not be denied transfer
16because of the suspension, except in cases in which such
17transfer is deemed to cause a threat to the safety of students
18or staff in the alternative program.
19    (b-5) Among the many possible disciplinary interventions
20and consequences available to school officials, school
21exclusions, such as out-of-school suspensions and expulsions,
22are the most serious. School officials shall limit the number
23and duration of expulsions and suspensions to the greatest
24extent practicable, and it is recommended that they use them
25only for legitimate educational purposes. To ensure that
26students are not excluded from school unnecessarily, it is

 

 

HB4304- 81 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1recommended that school officials consider forms of
2non-exclusionary discipline prior to using out-of-school
3suspensions or expulsions.
4    (b-10) Unless otherwise required by federal law or this
5Code, school boards may not institute zero-tolerance policies
6by which school administrators are required to suspend or
7expel students for particular behaviors.
8    (b-15) Out-of-school suspensions of 3 days or less may be
9used only if the student's continuing presence in school would
10pose a threat to school safety or a disruption to other
11students' learning opportunities. For purposes of this
12subsection (b-15), "threat to school safety or a disruption to
13other students' learning opportunities" shall be determined on
14a case-by-case basis by the school board or its designee.
15School officials shall make all reasonable efforts to resolve
16such threats, address such disruptions, and minimize the
17length of suspensions to the greatest extent practicable.
18    (b-20) Unless otherwise required by this Code,
19out-of-school suspensions of longer than 3 days, expulsions,
20and disciplinary removals to alternative schools may be used
21only if other appropriate and available behavioral and
22disciplinary interventions have been exhausted and the
23student's continuing presence in school would either (i) pose
24a threat to the safety of other students, staff, or members of
25the school community or (ii) substantially disrupt, impede, or
26interfere with the operation of the school. For purposes of

 

 

HB4304- 82 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1this subsection (b-20), "threat to the safety of other
2students, staff, or members of the school community" and
3"substantially disrupt, impede, or interfere with the
4operation of the school" shall be determined on a case-by-case
5basis by school officials. For purposes of this subsection
6(b-20), the determination of whether "appropriate and
7available behavioral and disciplinary interventions have been
8exhausted" shall be made by school officials. School officials
9shall make all reasonable efforts to resolve such threats,
10address such disruptions, and minimize the length of student
11exclusions to the greatest extent practicable. Within the
12suspension decision described in subsection (b) of this
13Section or the expulsion decision described in subsection (a)
14of this Section, it shall be documented whether other
15interventions were attempted or whether it was determined that
16there were no other appropriate and available interventions.
17    (b-25) Students who are suspended out-of-school for longer
18than 4 school days shall be provided appropriate and available
19support services during the period of their suspension. For
20purposes of this subsection (b-25), "appropriate and available
21support services" shall be determined by school authorities.
22Within the suspension decision described in subsection (b) of
23this Section, it shall be documented whether such services are
24to be provided or whether it was determined that there are no
25such appropriate and available services.
26    A school district may refer students who are expelled to

 

 

HB4304- 83 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

2    A school district shall create a policy to facilitate the
3re-engagement of students who are suspended out-of-school,
4expelled, or returning from an alternative school setting.
5    (b-30) A school district shall create a policy by which
6suspended pupils, including those pupils suspended from the
7school bus who do not have alternate transportation to school,
8shall have the opportunity to make up work for equivalent
9academic credit. It shall be the responsibility of a pupil's
10parent or guardian to notify school officials that a pupil
11suspended from the school bus does not have alternate
12transportation to school.
13    (c) A school board must invite a representative from a
14local mental health agency to consult with the board at the
15meeting whenever there is evidence that mental illness may be
16the cause of a student's expulsion or suspension.
17    (c-5) School districts shall make reasonable efforts to
18provide ongoing professional development to teachers,
19administrators, school board members, school resource
20officers, and staff on the adverse consequences of school
21exclusion and justice-system involvement, effective classroom
22management strategies, culturally responsive discipline, the
23appropriate and available supportive services for the
24promotion of student attendance and engagement, and
25developmentally appropriate disciplinary methods that promote
26positive and healthy school climates.

 

 

HB4304- 84 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    (d) The board may expel a student for a definite period of
2time not to exceed 2 calendar years, as determined on a
3case-by-case basis. A student who is determined to have
4brought one of the following objects to school, any
5school-sponsored activity or event, or any activity or event
6that bears a reasonable relationship to school shall be
7expelled for a period of not less than one year:

13    Section 24-1 of the Criminal Code of 2012. The expulsion
14    period under this subdivision (1) may be modified by the
15    superintendent, and the superintendent's determination may
16    be modified by the board on a case-by-case basis.

5    (d-5) The board may suspend or by regulation authorize the
6superintendent of the district or the principal, assistant
7principal, or dean of students of any school to suspend a
8student for a period not to exceed 10 school days or may expel
9a student for a definite period of time not to exceed 2
10calendar years, as determined on a case-by-case basis, if (i)
11that student has been determined to have made an explicit

14website through which the threat was made is a site that was
15accessible within the school at the time the threat was made or
16was available to third parties who worked or studied within

18the threat could be reasonably interpreted as threatening to
19the safety and security of the threatened individual because
20of his or her duties or employment status or status as a
21student inside the school.
22    (e) To maintain order and security in the schools, school
23authorities may inspect and search places and areas such as

4privacy in these places and areas or in their personal effects
5left in these places and areas. School authorities may request
6the assistance of law enforcement officials for the purpose of
7conducting inspections and searches of lockers, desks, parking
8lots, and other school property and equipment owned or
9controlled by the school for illegal drugs, weapons, or other
10illegal or dangerous substances or materials, including

16disciplinary action may be taken. School authorities may also
17turn over such evidence to law enforcement authorities.

23public or private school in this or any other state, the
24student must complete the entire term of the suspension or
25expulsion in an alternative school program under Article 13A
26of this Code or an alternative learning opportunities program

 

 

HB4304- 87 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

21reasons.
22    Any suspension shall be reported immediately to the
23parents or guardians of a pupil along with a full statement of
24the reasons for such suspension and a notice of their right to
25a review. The school board must be given a summary of the
26notice, including the reason for the suspension and the

 

 

HB4304- 90 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1suspension length. Upon request of the parents or guardians,
2the school board or a hearing officer appointed by it shall
3review such action of the superintendent or principal,
4assistant principal, or dean of students. At such review, the
5parents or guardians of the pupil may appear and discuss the
6suspension with the board or its hearing officer. If a hearing
7officer is appointed by the board, he shall report to the board
8a written summary of the evidence heard at the meeting. After
9its hearing or upon receipt of the written report of its
10hearing officer, the board may take such action as it finds
11appropriate. If a student is suspended pursuant to this
12subsection (b), the board shall, in the written suspension
13decision, detail the specific act of gross disobedience or
14misconduct resulting in the decision to suspend. The
15suspension decision shall also include a rationale as to the
16specific duration of the suspension. A pupil who is suspended
17in excess of 20 school days may be immediately transferred to
18an alternative program in the manner provided in Article 13A
19or 13B of this Code. A pupil must not be denied transfer
20because of the suspension, except in cases in which such
21transfer is deemed to cause a threat to the safety of students
22or staff in the alternative program.
23    (b-5) Among the many possible disciplinary interventions
24and consequences available to school officials, school
25exclusions, such as out-of-school suspensions and expulsions,
26are the most serious. School officials shall limit the number

 

 

HB4304- 91 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1and duration of expulsions and suspensions to the greatest
2extent practicable, and it is recommended that they use them
3only for legitimate educational purposes. To ensure that
4students are not excluded from school unnecessarily, it is
5recommended that school officials consider forms of
6non-exclusionary discipline prior to using out-of-school
7suspensions or expulsions.
8    (b-10) Unless otherwise required by federal law or this
9Code, school boards may not institute zero-tolerance policies
10by which school administrators are required to suspend or
11expel students for particular behaviors.
12    (b-15) Out-of-school suspensions of 3 days or less may be
13used only if the student's continuing presence in school would
14pose a threat to school safety or a disruption to other
15students' learning opportunities. For purposes of this
16subsection (b-15), "threat to school safety or a disruption to
17other students' learning opportunities" shall be determined on
18a case-by-case basis by the school board or its designee.
19School officials shall make all reasonable efforts to resolve
20such threats, address such disruptions, and minimize the
21length of suspensions to the greatest extent practicable.
22    (b-20) Unless otherwise required by this Code,
23out-of-school suspensions of longer than 3 days, expulsions,
24and disciplinary removals to alternative schools may be used
25only if other appropriate and available behavioral and
26disciplinary interventions have been exhausted and the

 

 

HB4304- 92 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1student's continuing presence in school would either (i) pose
2a threat to the safety of other students, staff, or members of
3the school community or (ii) substantially disrupt, impede, or
4interfere with the operation of the school. For purposes of
5this subsection (b-20), "threat to the safety of other
6students, staff, or members of the school community" and
7"substantially disrupt, impede, or interfere with the
8operation of the school" shall be determined on a case-by-case
9basis by school officials. For purposes of this subsection
10(b-20), the determination of whether "appropriate and
11available behavioral and disciplinary interventions have been
12exhausted" shall be made by school officials. School officials
13shall make all reasonable efforts to resolve such threats,
14address such disruptions, and minimize the length of student
15exclusions to the greatest extent practicable. Within the
16suspension decision described in subsection (b) of this
17Section or the expulsion decision described in subsection (a)
18of this Section, it shall be documented whether other
19interventions were attempted or whether it was determined that
20there were no other appropriate and available interventions.
21    (b-25) Students who are suspended out-of-school for longer
22than 4 school days shall be provided appropriate and available
23support services during the period of their suspension. For
24purposes of this subsection (b-25), "appropriate and available
25support services" shall be determined by school authorities.
26Within the suspension decision described in subsection (b) of

 

 

HB4304- 93 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1this Section, it shall be documented whether such services are
2to be provided or whether it was determined that there are no
3such appropriate and available services.
4    A school district may refer students who are expelled to
5appropriate and available support services.
6    A school district shall create a policy to facilitate the
7re-engagement of students who are suspended out-of-school,
8expelled, or returning from an alternative school setting.
9    (b-30) A school district shall create a policy by which
10suspended pupils, including those pupils suspended from the
11school bus who do not have alternate transportation to school,
12shall have the opportunity to make up work for equivalent
13academic credit. It shall be the responsibility of a pupil's
14parents or guardians to notify school officials that a pupil
15suspended from the school bus does not have alternate
16transportation to school.
17    (b-35) In all suspension review hearings conducted under
18subsection (b) or expulsion hearings conducted under
19subsection (a), a student may disclose any factor to be
20considered in mitigation, including his or her status as a
21parent, expectant parent, or victim of domestic or sexual
22violence, as defined in Article 26A. A representative of the
23parent's or guardian's choice, or of the student's choice if
24emancipated, must be permitted to represent the student
25throughout the proceedings and to address the school board or
26its appointed hearing officer. With the approval of the

 

 

HB4304- 94 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1student's parent or guardian, or of the student if
2emancipated, a support person must be permitted to accompany
3the student to any disciplinary hearings or proceedings. The
4representative or support person must comply with any rules of
5the school district's hearing process. If the representative
6or support person violates the rules or engages in behavior or
7advocacy that harasses, abuses, or intimidates either party, a
8witness, or anyone else in attendance at the hearing, the
9representative or support person may be prohibited from
10further participation in the hearing or proceeding. A
11suspension or expulsion proceeding under this subsection
12(b-35) must be conducted independently from any ongoing
13criminal investigation or proceeding, and an absence of
14pending or possible criminal charges, criminal investigations,
15or proceedings may not be a factor in school disciplinary
16decisions.
17    (b-40) During a suspension review hearing conducted under
18subsection (b) or an expulsion hearing conducted under
19subsection (a) that involves allegations of sexual violence by
20the student who is subject to discipline, neither the student
21nor his or her representative shall directly question nor have
22direct contact with the alleged victim. The student who is
23subject to discipline or his or her representative may, at the
24discretion and direction of the school board or its appointed
25hearing officer, suggest questions to be posed by the school
26board or its appointed hearing officer to the alleged victim.

1    (c) A school board must invite a representative from a
2local mental health agency to consult with the board at the
3meeting whenever there is evidence that mental illness may be
4the cause of a student's expulsion or suspension.
5    (c-5) School districts shall make reasonable efforts to
6provide ongoing professional development to teachers,
7administrators, school board members, school resource
8officers, and staff on the adverse consequences of school
9exclusion and justice-system involvement, effective classroom
10management strategies, culturally responsive discipline, the
11appropriate and available supportive services for the
12promotion of student attendance and engagement, and
13developmentally appropriate disciplinary methods that promote
14positive and healthy school climates.
15    (d) The board may expel a student for a definite period of
16time not to exceed 2 calendar years, as determined on a
17case-by-case basis. A student who is determined to have
18brought one of the following objects to school, any
19school-sponsored activity or event, or any activity or event
20that bears a reasonable relationship to school shall be
21expelled for a period of not less than one year:

16expulsion as provided in this Section may be eligible for a
17transfer to an alternative school program in accordance with
18Article 13A of the School Code.
19    (d-5) The board may suspend or by regulation authorize the
20superintendent of the district or the principal, assistant
21principal, or dean of students of any school to suspend a
22student for a period not to exceed 10 school days or may expel
23a student for a definite period of time not to exceed 2
24calendar years, as determined on a case-by-case basis, if (i)

HB4304- 97 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1student, or any school-related personnel, (ii) the Internet
2website through which the threat was made is a site that was
3accessible within the school at the time the threat was made or
4was available to third parties who worked or studied within
5the school grounds at the time the threat was made, and (iii)
6the threat could be reasonably interpreted as threatening to
7the safety and security of the threatened individual because
8of his or her duties or employment status or status as a
9student inside the school.
10    (e) To maintain order and security in the schools, school
11authorities may inspect and search places and areas such as
12lockers, desks, parking lots, and other school property and
13equipment owned or controlled by the school, as well as
14personal effects left in those places and areas by students,
15without notice to or the consent of the student, and without a
16search warrant. As a matter of public policy, the General
17Assembly finds that students have no reasonable expectation of
18privacy in these places and areas or in their personal effects
19left in these places and areas. School authorities may request
20the assistance of law enforcement officials for the purpose of
21conducting inspections and searches of lockers, desks, parking
22lots, and other school property and equipment owned or
23controlled by the school for illegal drugs, weapons, or other
24illegal or dangerous substances or materials, including

11public or private school in this or any other state, the
12student must complete the entire term of the suspension or
13expulsion in an alternative school program under Article 13A
14of this Code or an alternative learning opportunities program
15under Article 13B of this Code before being admitted into the
16school district if there is no threat to the safety of students
17or staff in the alternative program. A school district that
18adopts a policy under this subsection (g) must include a
19provision allowing for consideration of any mitigating
20factors, including, but not limited to, a student's status as
21a parent, expectant parent, or victim of domestic or sexual
22violence, as defined in Article 26A.
23    (h) School officials shall not advise or encourage

17district may employ a school social worker or a licensed
18mental health professional to oversee an in-school suspension
19program in kindergarten through grade 12.

20condition results in impairment of general intellectual
21functioning or adaptive behavior similar to that of persons
22with ID, and requires services similar to those required for a
23person with an intellectual disability. In addition, a
24developmental disability: (1) is manifested before the

8interdisciplinary or generic services, individualized
9supports, or other forms of assistance that are of lifelong or
10extended duration and are individually planned and

HB4304- 122 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1individualized, standardized intelligence testing (generally
2indicated with an IQ score of about 70 or below), (2) deficits
3in adaptive functioning that result in failure to meet
4developmental and sociocultural standards for personal
5independence and social responsibility. Without ongoing
6support, the adaptive deficits limit functioning in one or
7more activities of daily life, such as communication, social
8participation, and independent living, across multiple

23defendant's unlawful interference with the orderly
24administration of justice, or ensure compliance with the rules

2    Sec. 112A-11.1. Procedure for determining whether certain
3misdemeanor crimes are crimes of domestic violence for
4purposes of federal law.
5    (a) When a defendant has been charged with a violation of
6Section 12-1, 12-2, 12-3, 12-3.2, 12-3.4, or 12-3.5 of the
7Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, the State
8may, at arraignment or no later than 45 days after
9arraignment, for the purpose of notification to the Illinois
10State Police Firearm Owner's Identification Card Office, serve
11on the defendant and file with the court a notice alleging that
12conviction of the offense would subject the defendant to the
13prohibitions of 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(9) because of the
14relationship between the defendant and the alleged victim and
15the nature of the alleged offense.
16    (b) The notice shall include the name of the person
17alleged to be the victim of the crime and shall specify the
18nature of the alleged relationship as set forth in 18 U.S.C.
19921(a)(33)(A)(ii). It shall also specify the element of the
20charged offense which requires the use or attempted use of
21physical force, or the threatened use of a deadly weapon, as
22set forth 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(33)(A)(ii). It shall also include
23notice that the defendant is entitled to a hearing on the
24allegation contained in the notice and that if the allegation
25is sustained, that determination and conviction shall be
26reported to the Illinois State Police Firearm Owner's

2    (c) After having been notified as provided in subsection
3(b) of this Section, the defendant may stipulate or admit,
4orally on the record or in writing, that conviction of the
5offense would subject the defendant to the prohibitions of 18
6U.S.C. 922(g)(9). In that case, the applicability of 18 U.S.C.
7922(g)(9) shall be deemed established for purposes of Section
8112A-11.2. If the defendant denies the applicability of 18
9U.S.C. 922(g)(9) as alleged in the notice served by the State,
10or stands mute with respect to that allegation, then the State
11shall bear the burden to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that
12the offense is one to which the prohibitions of 18 U.S.C.
13922(g)(9) apply. The court may consider reliable hearsay
14evidence submitted by either party provided that it is
15relevant to the determination of the allegation. Facts
16previously proven at trial or elicited at the time of entry of
17a plea of guilty shall be deemed established beyond a
18reasonable doubt and shall not be relitigated. At the
19conclusion of the hearing, or upon a stipulation or admission,
20as applicable, the court shall make a specific written
21determination with respect to the allegation.

18    (a) (Blank).
19    (b) The court may order any of the remedies listed in this
20subsection (b). The remedies listed in this subsection (b)
21shall be in addition to other civil or criminal remedies
22available to petitioner.
23        (1) Prohibition of abuse. Prohibit respondent's
24    harassment, interference with personal liberty,
25    intimidation of a dependent, physical abuse, or willful

 

 

HB4304- 330 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    deprivation, as defined in this Article, if such abuse has
2    occurred or otherwise appears likely to occur if not
3    prohibited.
4        (2) Grant of exclusive possession of residence.
5    Prohibit respondent from entering or remaining in any
6    residence, household, or premises of the petitioner,
7    including one owned or leased by respondent, if petitioner
8    has a right to occupancy thereof. The grant of exclusive
9    possession of the residence, household, or premises shall
10    not affect title to real property, nor shall the court be
11    limited by the standard set forth in subsection (c-2) of
12    Section 501 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
13    Marriage Act.
14            (A) Right to occupancy. A party has a right to
15        occupancy of a residence or household if it is solely
16        or jointly owned or leased by that party, that party's
17        spouse, a person with a legal duty to support that
18        party or a minor child in that party's care, or by any
19        person or entity other than the opposing party that
20        authorizes that party's occupancy (e.g., a domestic
21        violence shelter). Standards set forth in subparagraph
22        (B) shall not preclude equitable relief.
23            (B) Presumption of hardships. If petitioner and
24        respondent each has the right to occupancy of a
25        residence or household, the court shall balance (i)
26        the hardships to respondent and any minor child or

 

 

HB4304- 331 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        dependent adult in respondent's care resulting from
2        entry of this remedy with (ii) the hardships to
3        petitioner and any minor child or dependent adult in
4        petitioner's care resulting from continued exposure to
5        the risk of abuse (should petitioner remain at the
6        residence or household) or from loss of possession of
7        the residence or household (should petitioner leave to
8        avoid the risk of abuse). When determining the balance
9        of hardships, the court shall also take into account
10        the accessibility of the residence or household.
11        Hardships need not be balanced if respondent does not
12        have a right to occupancy.
13            The balance of hardships is presumed to favor
14        possession by petitioner unless the presumption is
15        rebutted by a preponderance of the evidence, showing
16        that the hardships to respondent substantially
17        outweigh the hardships to petitioner and any minor
18        child or dependent adult in petitioner's care. The
19        court, on the request of petitioner or on its own
20        motion, may order respondent to provide suitable,
21        accessible, alternate housing for petitioner instead
22        of excluding respondent from a mutual residence or
23        household.
24        (3) Stay away order and additional prohibitions. Order
25    respondent to stay away from petitioner or any other
26    person protected by the domestic violence order of

 

 

HB4304- 332 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    protection, or prohibit respondent from entering or
2    remaining present at petitioner's school, place of
3    employment, or other specified places at times when
4    petitioner is present, or both, if reasonable, given the
5    balance of hardships. Hardships need not be balanced for
6    the court to enter a stay away order or prohibit entry if
7    respondent has no right to enter the premises.
8            (A) If a domestic violence order of protection
9        grants petitioner exclusive possession of the
10        residence, prohibits respondent from entering the
11        residence, or orders respondent to stay away from
12        petitioner or other protected persons, then the court
13        may allow respondent access to the residence to remove
14        items of clothing and personal adornment used
15        exclusively by respondent, medications, and other
16        items as the court directs. The right to access shall
17        be exercised on only one occasion as the court directs
18        and in the presence of an agreed-upon adult third
19        party or law enforcement officer.
20            (B) When the petitioner and the respondent attend
21        the same public, private, or non-public elementary,
22        middle, or high school, the court when issuing a
23        domestic violence order of protection and providing
24        relief shall consider the severity of the act, any
25        continuing physical danger or emotional distress to
26        the petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to

 

 

HB4304- 333 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        the petitioner and respondent under federal and State
2        law, the availability of a transfer of the respondent
3        to another school, a change of placement or a change of
4        program of the respondent, the expense, difficulty,
5        and educational disruption that would be caused by a
6        transfer of the respondent to another school, and any
7        other relevant facts of the case. The court may order
8        that the respondent not attend the public, private, or
9        non-public elementary, middle, or high school attended
10        by the petitioner, order that the respondent accept a
11        change of placement or change of program, as
12        determined by the school district or private or
13        non-public school, or place restrictions on the
14        respondent's movements within the school attended by
15        the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of
16        proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a
17        transfer, change of placement, or change of program of
18        the respondent is not available. The respondent also
19        bears the burden of production with respect to the
20        expense, difficulty, and educational disruption that
21        would be caused by a transfer of the respondent to
22        another school. A transfer, change of placement, or
23        change of program is not unavailable to the respondent
24        solely on the ground that the respondent does not
25        agree with the school district's or private or
26        non-public school's transfer, change of placement, or

 

 

HB4304- 334 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        change of program or solely on the ground that the
2        respondent fails or refuses to consent or otherwise
3        does not take an action required to effectuate a
4        transfer, change of placement, or change of program.
5        When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the
6        public, private, or non-public school attended by the
7        petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to
8        another attendance center within the respondent's
9        school district or private or non-public school, the
10        school district or private or non-public school shall
11        have sole discretion to determine the attendance
12        center to which the respondent is transferred. If the
13        court order results in a transfer of the minor
14        respondent to another attendance center, a change in
15        the respondent's placement, or a change of the
16        respondent's program, the parents, guardian, or legal
17        custodian of the respondent is responsible for
18        transportation and other costs associated with the
19        transfer or change.
20            (C) The court may order the parents, guardian, or
21        legal custodian of a minor respondent to take certain
22        actions or to refrain from taking certain actions to
23        ensure that the respondent complies with the order. If
24        the court orders a transfer of the respondent to
25        another school, the parents, guardian, or legal
26        custodian of the respondent is responsible for

 

 

HB4304- 335 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        transportation and other costs associated with the
2        change of school by the respondent.
3        (4) Counseling. Require or recommend the respondent to
4    undergo counseling for a specified duration with a social
5    worker, psychologist, clinical psychologist,
6    psychiatrist, family service agency, alcohol or substance
7    abuse program, mental health center guidance counselor,
8    agency providing services to elders, program designed for
9    domestic violence abusers, or any other guidance service
10    the court deems appropriate. The court may order the
11    respondent in any intimate partner relationship to report
12    to an Illinois Department of Human Services protocol
13    approved partner abuse intervention program for an
14    assessment and to follow all recommended treatment.
15        (5) Physical care and possession of the minor child.
16    In order to protect the minor child from abuse, neglect,
17    or unwarranted separation from the person who has been the
18    minor child's primary caretaker, or to otherwise protect
19    the well-being of the minor child, the court may do either
20    or both of the following: (i) grant petitioner physical
21    care or possession of the minor child, or both, or (ii)
22    order respondent to return a minor child to, or not remove
23    a minor child from, the physical care of a parent or person
24    in loco parentis.
25        If the respondent is charged with abuse (as defined in
26    Section 112A-3 of this Code) of a minor child, there shall

 

 

HB4304- 336 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    be a rebuttable presumption that awarding physical care to
2    respondent would not be in the minor child's best
3    interest.
4        (6) Temporary allocation of parental responsibilities
5    and significant decision-making responsibilities. Award
6    temporary significant decision-making responsibility to
7    petitioner in accordance with this Section, the Illinois
8    Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, the Illinois
9    Parentage Act of 2015, and this State's Uniform
10    Child-Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act.
11        If the respondent is charged with abuse (as defined in
12    Section 112A-3 of this Code) of a minor child, there shall
13    be a rebuttable presumption that awarding temporary
14    significant decision-making responsibility to respondent
15    would not be in the child's best interest.
16        (7) Parenting time. Determine the parenting time, if
17    any, of respondent in any case in which the court awards
18    physical care or temporary significant decision-making
19    responsibility of a minor child to petitioner. The court
20    shall restrict or deny respondent's parenting time with a
21    minor child if the court finds that respondent has done or
22    is likely to do any of the following:
23            (i) abuse or endanger the minor child during
24        parenting time;
25            (ii) use the parenting time as an opportunity to
26        abuse or harass petitioner or petitioner's family or

 

 

HB4304- 337 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        household members;
2            (iii) improperly conceal or detain the minor
3        child; or
4            (iv) otherwise act in a manner that is not in the
5        best interests of the minor child.
6        The court shall not be limited by the standards set
7    forth in Section 603.10 of the Illinois Marriage and
8    Dissolution of Marriage Act. If the court grants parenting
9    time, the order shall specify dates and times for the
10    parenting time to take place or other specific parameters
11    or conditions that are appropriate. No order for parenting
12    time shall refer merely to the term "reasonable parenting
13    time". Petitioner may deny respondent access to the minor
14    child if, when respondent arrives for parenting time,
15    respondent is under the influence of drugs or alcohol and
16    constitutes a threat to the safety and well-being of
17    petitioner or petitioner's minor children or is behaving
18    in a violent or abusive manner. If necessary to protect
19    any member of petitioner's family or household from future
20    abuse, respondent shall be prohibited from coming to
21    petitioner's residence to meet the minor child for
22    parenting time, and the petitioner and respondent shall
23    submit to the court their recommendations for reasonable
24    alternative arrangements for parenting time. A person may
25    be approved to supervise parenting time only after filing
26    an affidavit accepting that responsibility and

 

 

HB4304- 338 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    acknowledging accountability to the court.
2        (8) Removal or concealment of minor child. Prohibit
3    respondent from removing a minor child from the State or
4    concealing the child within the State.
5        (9) Order to appear. Order the respondent to appear in
6    court, alone or with a minor child, to prevent abuse,
7    neglect, removal or concealment of the child, to return
8    the child to the custody or care of the petitioner, or to
9    permit any court-ordered interview or examination of the
10    child or the respondent.
11        (10) Possession of personal property. Grant petitioner
12    exclusive possession of personal property and, if
13    respondent has possession or control, direct respondent to
14    promptly make it available to petitioner, if:
15            (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
16        property; or
17            (ii) the petitioner and respondent own the
18        property jointly; sharing it would risk abuse of
19        petitioner by respondent or is impracticable; and the
20        balance of hardships favors temporary possession by
21        petitioner.
22        If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the
23    property is that it is marital property, the court may
24    award petitioner temporary possession thereof under the
25    standards of subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph only if a
26    proper proceeding has been filed under the Illinois

 

 

HB4304- 339 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as now or
2    hereafter amended.
3        No order under this provision shall affect title to
4    property.
5        (11) Protection of property. Forbid the respondent
6    from taking, transferring, encumbering, concealing,
7    damaging, or otherwise disposing of any real or personal
8    property, except as explicitly authorized by the court,
9    if:
10            (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
11        property; or
12            (ii) the petitioner and respondent own the
13        property jointly, and the balance of hardships favors
14        granting this remedy.
15        If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the
16    property is that it is marital property, the court may
17    grant petitioner relief under subparagraph (ii) of this
18    paragraph only if a proper proceeding has been filed under
19    the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
20    now or hereafter amended.
21        The court may further prohibit respondent from
22    improperly using the financial or other resources of an
23    aged member of the family or household for the profit or
24    advantage of respondent or of any other person.
25        (11.5) Protection of animals. Grant the petitioner the
26    exclusive care, custody, or control of any animal owned,

 

 

HB4304- 340 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    possessed, leased, kept, or held by either the petitioner
2    or the respondent or a minor child residing in the
3    residence or household of either the petitioner or the
4    respondent and order the respondent to stay away from the
5    animal and forbid the respondent from taking,
6    transferring, encumbering, concealing, harming, or
7    otherwise disposing of the animal.
8        (12) Order for payment of support. Order respondent to
9    pay temporary support for the petitioner or any child in
10    the petitioner's care or over whom the petitioner has been
11    allocated parental responsibility, when the respondent has
12    a legal obligation to support that person, in accordance
13    with the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage
14    Act, which shall govern, among other matters, the amount
15    of support, payment through the clerk and withholding of
16    income to secure payment. An order for child support may
17    be granted to a petitioner with lawful physical care of a
18    child, or an order or agreement for physical care of a
19    child, prior to entry of an order allocating significant
20    decision-making responsibility. Such a support order shall
21    expire upon entry of a valid order allocating parental
22    responsibility differently and vacating petitioner's
23    significant decision-making responsibility unless
24    otherwise provided in the order.
25        (13) Order for payment of losses. Order respondent to
26    pay petitioner for losses suffered as a direct result of

 

 

HB4304- 341 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    the abuse. Such losses shall include, but not be limited
2    to, medical expenses, lost earnings or other support,
3    repair or replacement of property damaged or taken,
4    reasonable attorney's fees, court costs, and moving or
5    other travel expenses, including additional reasonable
6    expenses for temporary shelter and restaurant meals.
7            (i) Losses affecting family needs. If a party is
8        entitled to seek maintenance, child support, or
9        property distribution from the other party under the
10        Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
11        now or hereafter amended, the court may order
12        respondent to reimburse petitioner's actual losses, to
13        the extent that such reimbursement would be
14        "appropriate temporary relief", as authorized by
15        subsection (a)(3) of Section 501 of that Act.
16            (ii) Recovery of expenses. In the case of an
17        improper concealment or removal of a minor child, the
18        court may order respondent to pay the reasonable
19        expenses incurred or to be incurred in the search for
20        and recovery of the minor child, including, but not
21        limited to, legal fees, court costs, private
22        investigator fees, and travel costs.
23        (14) Prohibition of entry. Prohibit the respondent
24    from entering or remaining in the residence or household
25    while the respondent is under the influence of alcohol or
26    drugs and constitutes a threat to the safety and

 

 

HB4304- 342 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    well-being of the petitioner or the petitioner's children.
2        (14.5) Prohibition of firearm possession.
3            (A) A person who is subject to an existing
4        domestic violence order of protection issued under
5        this Code may not lawfully possess firearms, stun
6        guns, or tasers weapons or a Firearm Owner's
7        Identification Card under Section 8.2 of the Firearm
8        Owners Identification Card Act.
9            (B) Any firearms in the possession of the
10        respondent, except as provided in subparagraph (C) of
11        this paragraph (14.5), shall be ordered by the court
12        to be turned over to a person who is not prohibited
13        under State or federal law from possessing firearms
14        with a valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card for
15        safekeeping. The court shall issue an order that the
16        respondent comply with Section 9.5 of the Firearm
17        Owners Identification Card Act.
18            (C) If the respondent is a peace officer as
19        defined in Section 2-13 of the Criminal Code of 2012,
20        the court shall order that any firearms used by the
21        respondent in the performance of his or her duties as a
22        peace officer be surrendered to the chief law
23        enforcement executive of the agency in which the
24        respondent is employed, who shall retain the firearms
25        for safekeeping for the duration of the domestic
26        violence order of protection.

 

 

HB4304- 343 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1            (D) Upon expiration of the period of safekeeping,
2        if the firearms or Firearm Owner's Identification Card
3        cannot be returned to respondent because respondent
4        cannot be located, fails to respond to requests to
5        retrieve the firearms, or is not lawfully eligible to
6        possess a firearm, upon petition from the local law
7        enforcement agency, the court may order the local law
8        enforcement agency to destroy the firearms, use the
9        firearms for training purposes, or for any other
10        application as deemed appropriate by the local law
11        enforcement agency; or that the firearms be turned
12        over to a third party who is lawfully eligible to
13        possess firearms, and who does not reside with
14        respondent.
15        (15) Prohibition of access to records. If a domestic
16    violence order of protection prohibits respondent from
17    having contact with the minor child, or if petitioner's
18    address is omitted under subsection (b) of Section 112A-5
19    of this Code, or if necessary to prevent abuse or wrongful
20    removal or concealment of a minor child, the order shall
21    deny respondent access to, and prohibit respondent from
22    inspecting, obtaining, or attempting to inspect or obtain,
23    school or any other records of the minor child who is in
24    the care of petitioner.
25        (16) Order for payment of shelter services. Order
26    respondent to reimburse a shelter providing temporary

 

 

HB4304- 344 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    housing and counseling services to the petitioner for the
2    cost of the services, as certified by the shelter and
3    deemed reasonable by the court.
4        (17) Order for injunctive relief. Enter injunctive
5    relief necessary or appropriate to prevent further abuse
6    of a family or household member or to effectuate one of the
7    granted remedies, if supported by the balance of
8    hardships. If the harm to be prevented by the injunction
9    is abuse or any other harm that one of the remedies listed
10    in paragraphs (1) through (16) of this subsection is
11    designed to prevent, no further evidence is necessary to
12    establish that the harm is an irreparable injury.
13        (18) Telephone services.
14            (A) Unless a condition described in subparagraph
15        (B) of this paragraph exists, the court may, upon
16        request by the petitioner, order a wireless telephone
17        service provider to transfer to the petitioner the
18        right to continue to use a telephone number or numbers
19        indicated by the petitioner and the financial
20        responsibility associated with the number or numbers,
21        as set forth in subparagraph (C) of this paragraph. In
22        this paragraph (18), the term "wireless telephone
23        service provider" means a provider of commercial
24        mobile service as defined in 47 U.S.C. 332. The
25        petitioner may request the transfer of each telephone
26        number that the petitioner, or a minor child in his or

 

 

HB4304- 345 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        her custody, uses. The clerk of the court shall serve
2        the order on the wireless telephone service provider's
3        agent for service of process provided to the Illinois
4        Commerce Commission. The order shall contain all of
5        the following:
6                (i) The name and billing telephone number of
7            the account holder including the name of the
8            wireless telephone service provider that serves
9            the account.
10                (ii) Each telephone number that will be
11            transferred.
12                (iii) A statement that the provider transfers
13            to the petitioner all financial responsibility for
14            and right to the use of any telephone number
15            transferred under this paragraph.
16            (B) A wireless telephone service provider shall
17        terminate the respondent's use of, and shall transfer
18        to the petitioner use of, the telephone number or
19        numbers indicated in subparagraph (A) of this
20        paragraph unless it notifies the petitioner, within 72
21        hours after it receives the order, that one of the
22        following applies:
23                (i) The account holder named in the order has
24            terminated the account.
25                (ii) A difference in network technology would
26            prevent or impair the functionality of a device on

 

 

HB4304- 346 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1            a network if the transfer occurs.
2                (iii) The transfer would cause a geographic or
3            other limitation on network or service provision
4            to the petitioner.
5                (iv) Another technological or operational
6            issue would prevent or impair the use of the
7            telephone number if the transfer occurs.
8            (C) The petitioner assumes all financial
9        responsibility for and right to the use of any
10        telephone number transferred under this paragraph. In
11        this paragraph, "financial responsibility" includes
12        monthly service costs and costs associated with any
13        mobile device associated with the number.
14            (D) A wireless telephone service provider may
15        apply to the petitioner its routine and customary
16        requirements for establishing an account or
17        transferring a number, including requiring the
18        petitioner to provide proof of identification,
19        financial information, and customer preferences.
20            (E) Except for willful or wanton misconduct, a
21        wireless telephone service provider is immune from
22        civil liability for its actions taken in compliance
23        with a court order issued under this paragraph.
24            (F) All wireless service providers that provide
25        services to residential customers shall provide to the
26        Illinois Commerce Commission the name and address of

 

 

HB4304- 347 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        an agent for service of orders entered under this
2        paragraph (18). Any change in status of the registered
3        agent must be reported to the Illinois Commerce
4        Commission within 30 days of such change.
5            (G) The Illinois Commerce Commission shall
6        maintain the list of registered agents for service for
7        each wireless telephone service provider on the
8        Commission's website. The Commission may consult with
9        wireless telephone service providers and the Circuit
10        Court Clerks on the manner in which this information
11        is provided and displayed.
12    (c) Relevant factors; findings.
13        (1) In determining whether to grant a specific remedy,
14    other than payment of support, the court shall consider
15    relevant factors, including, but not limited to, the
16    following:
17            (i) the nature, frequency, severity, pattern, and
18        consequences of the respondent's past abuse of the
19        petitioner or any family or household member,
20        including the concealment of his or her location in
21        order to evade service of process or notice, and the
22        likelihood of danger of future abuse to petitioner or
23        any member of petitioner's or respondent's family or
24        household; and
25            (ii) the danger that any minor child will be
26        abused or neglected or improperly relocated from the

 

 

HB4304- 348 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        jurisdiction, improperly concealed within the State,
2        or improperly separated from the child's primary
3        caretaker.
4        (2) In comparing relative hardships resulting to the
5    parties from loss of possession of the family home, the
6    court shall consider relevant factors, including, but not
7    limited to, the following:
8            (i) availability, accessibility, cost, safety,
9        adequacy, location, and other characteristics of
10        alternate housing for each party and any minor child
11        or dependent adult in the party's care;
12            (ii) the effect on the party's employment; and
13            (iii) the effect on the relationship of the party,
14        and any minor child or dependent adult in the party's
15        care, to family, school, church, and community.
16        (3) Subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph
17    (4) of this subsection (c), the court shall make its
18    findings in an official record or in writing, and shall at
19    a minimum set forth the following:
20            (i) That the court has considered the applicable
21        relevant factors described in paragraphs (1) and (2)
22        of this subsection (c).
23            (ii) Whether the conduct or actions of respondent,
24        unless prohibited, will likely cause irreparable harm
25        or continued abuse.
26            (iii) Whether it is necessary to grant the

 

 

HB4304- 349 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        requested relief in order to protect petitioner or
2        other alleged abused persons.
3        (4) (Blank).
4        (5) Never married parties. No rights or
5    responsibilities for a minor child born outside of
6    marriage attach to a putative father until a father and
7    child relationship has been established under the Illinois
8    Parentage Act of 1984, the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015,
9    the Illinois Public Aid Code, Section 12 of the Vital
10    Records Act, the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Probate
11    Act of 1975, the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act,
12    the Expedited Child Support Act of 1990, any judicial,
13    administrative, or other act of another state or
14    territory, any other statute of this State, or by any
15    foreign nation establishing the father and child
16    relationship, any other proceeding substantially in
17    conformity with the federal Personal Responsibility and
18    Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, or when both
19    parties appeared in open court or at an administrative
20    hearing acknowledging under oath or admitting by
21    affirmation the existence of a father and child
22    relationship. Absent such an adjudication, no putative
23    father shall be granted temporary allocation of parental
24    responsibilities, including parenting time with the minor
25    child, or physical care and possession of the minor child,
26    nor shall an order of payment for support of the minor

 

 

HB4304- 350 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    child be entered.
2    (d) Balance of hardships; findings. If the court finds
3that the balance of hardships does not support the granting of
4a remedy governed by paragraph (2), (3), (10), (11), or (16) of
5subsection (b) of this Section, which may require such
6balancing, the court's findings shall so indicate and shall
7include a finding as to whether granting the remedy will
8result in hardship to respondent that would substantially
9outweigh the hardship to petitioner from denial of the remedy.
10The findings shall be an official record or in writing.
11    (e) Denial of remedies. Denial of any remedy shall not be
12based, in whole or in part, on evidence that:
13        (1) respondent has cause for any use of force, unless
14    that cause satisfies the standards for justifiable use of
15    force provided by Article 7 of the Criminal Code of 2012;
16        (2) respondent was voluntarily intoxicated;
17        (3) petitioner acted in self-defense or defense of
18    another, provided that, if petitioner utilized force, such
19    force was justifiable under Article 7 of the Criminal Code
20    of 2012;
21        (4) petitioner did not act in self-defense or defense
22    of another;
23        (5) petitioner left the residence or household to
24    avoid further abuse by respondent;
25        (6) petitioner did not leave the residence or
26    household to avoid further abuse by respondent; or

 

 

HB4304- 351 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        (7) conduct by any family or household member excused
2    the abuse by respondent, unless that same conduct would
3    have excused such abuse if the parties had not been family
4    or household members.

8    Sec. 112A-14.7. Stalking no contact order; remedies.
9    (a) The court may order any of the remedies listed in this
10Section. The remedies listed in this Section shall be in
11addition to other civil or criminal remedies available to
12petitioner. A stalking no contact order shall order one or
13more of the following:
14        (1) prohibit the respondent from threatening to commit
15    or committing stalking;
16        (2) order the respondent not to have any contact with
17    the petitioner or a third person specifically named by the
18    court;
19        (3) prohibit the respondent from knowingly coming
20    within, or knowingly remaining within a specified distance
21    of the petitioner or the petitioner's residence, school,
22    daycare, or place of employment, or any specified place
23    frequented by the petitioner; however, the court may order
24    the respondent to stay away from the respondent's own
25    residence, school, or place of employment only if the

 

 

HB4304- 352 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    respondent has been provided actual notice of the
2    opportunity to appear and be heard on the petition;
3        (4) prohibit the respondent from possessing a Firearm
4    Owners Identification Card, or possessing or buying
5    firearms; and
6        (5) order other injunctive relief the court determines
7    to be necessary to protect the petitioner or third party
8    specifically named by the court.
9    (b) When the petitioner and the respondent attend the same
10public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or high
11school, the court when issuing a stalking no contact order and
12providing relief shall consider the severity of the act, any
13continuing physical danger or emotional distress to the
14petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to the
15petitioner and respondent under federal and State law, the
16availability of a transfer of the respondent to another
17school, a change of placement or a change of program of the
18respondent, the expense, difficulty, and educational
19disruption that would be caused by a transfer of the
20respondent to another school, and any other relevant facts of
21the case. The court may order that the respondent not attend
22the public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or high
23school attended by the petitioner, order that the respondent

1attended by the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of
2proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a transfer,
3change of placement, or change of program of the respondent is
4not available. The respondent also bears the burden of
5production with respect to the expense, difficulty, and
6educational disruption that would be caused by a transfer of
7the respondent to another school. A transfer, change of
8placement, or change of program is not unavailable to the
9respondent solely on the ground that the respondent does not
10agree with the school district's or private or non-public
11school's transfer, change of placement, or change of program
12or solely on the ground that the respondent fails or refuses to
13consent to or otherwise does not take an action required to
14effectuate a transfer, change of placement, or change of
15program. When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the
16public, private, or non-public school attended by the
17petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to another
18attendance center within the respondent's school district or
19private or non-public school, the school district or private
20or non-public school shall have sole discretion to determine
21the attendance center to which the respondent is transferred.
22If the court order results in a transfer of the minor
23respondent to another attendance center, a change in the
24respondent's placement, or a change of the respondent's
25program, the parents, guardian, or legal custodian of the
26respondent is responsible for transportation and other costs

2    (c) The court may order the parents, guardian, or legal
3custodian of a minor respondent to take certain actions or to
4refrain from taking certain actions to ensure that the
5respondent complies with the order. If the court orders a
6transfer of the respondent to another school, the parents,
7guardian, or legal custodian of the respondent are responsible
8for transportation and other costs associated with the change
9of school by the respondent.
10    (d) The court shall not hold a school district or private
11or non-public school or any of its employees in civil or
12criminal contempt unless the school district or private or
13non-public school has been allowed to intervene.
14    (e) The court may hold the parents, guardian, or legal
15custodian of a minor respondent in civil or criminal contempt
16for a violation of any provision of any order entered under
17this Article for conduct of the minor respondent in violation
18of this Article if the parents, guardian, or legal custodian
19directed, encouraged, or assisted the respondent minor in the
20conduct.
21    (f) Monetary damages are not recoverable as a remedy.
22    (g) If the stalking no contact order prohibits the
23respondent from possessing a Firearm Owner's Identification
24Card, or possessing or buying firearms; the court shall
25confiscate the respondent's firearms and firearm ammunition
26Firearm Owner's Identification Card and immediately return the

10respondent.
11    (b) Issuance of ex parte protective orders in cases
12involving domestic violence. An ex parte domestic violence
13order of protection shall be issued if petitioner satisfies
14the requirements of this subsection (b) for one or more of the

16shall establish that:
17        (1) the court has jurisdiction under Section 112A-9 of
18    this Code;
19        (2) the requirements of subsection (a) of Section
20    112A-11.5 of this Code are satisfied; and

6        this Code; order to appear described in paragraph (9)
7        of subsection (b) of Section 112A-14 of this Code;
8        physical care and possession of the minor child
9        described in paragraph (5) of subsection (b) of

23        harm which that remedy is intended to prevent would be
24        likely to occur if the respondent were given any prior
25        notice, or greater notice than was actually given, of
26        the petitioner's efforts to obtain judicial relief;

6        chosen to remain in the residence or household while
7        the respondent was given any prior notice or greater
8        notice than was actually given of the petitioner's
9        efforts to obtain judicial relief outweighs the
10        hardships to the respondent of an emergency order
11        granting the petitioner exclusive possession of the
12        residence or household; and the remedy shall not be
13        denied because the petitioner has or could obtain
14        temporary shelter elsewhere while prior notice is
15        given to the respondent, unless the hardship to the
16        respondent from exclusion from the home substantially
17        outweigh the hardship to the petitioner; or
18            (C) for the remedy of possession of personal
19        property described in paragraph (10) of subsection (b)
20        of Section 112A-14 of this Code; improper disposition
21        of the personal property would be likely to occur if
22        the respondent were given any prior notice, or greater
23        notice than was actually given, of the petitioner's
24        efforts to obtain judicial relief or the petitioner
25        has an immediate and pressing need for the possession
26        of that property.

20court to which jurisdiction has been transferred shall have
21the same powers as the sentencing court. The probation
22department within the circuit to which jurisdiction has been
23transferred, or which has agreed to provide supervision, may

17fee. The court may not impose the fee on a minor who is placed
18in the guardianship or custody of the Department of Children
19and Family Services under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 while
20the minor is in placement. The fee shall be imposed only upon
21an offender who is actively supervised by the probation and

11re-evaluate an offender's ability to pay every 6 months, and,
12with the approval of the Director of Court Services or the
13Chief Probation Officer, adjust the monthly fee amount. An
14offender may elect to pay probation fees due in a lump sum. Any

16probation department, or has been transferred either under
17subsection (h) of this Section or under any interstate
18compact, shall be required to pay probation fees to the
19department supervising the offender, based on the offender's
20ability to pay.
21    Public Act 93-970 deletes the $10 increase in the fee
22under this subsection that was imposed by Public Act 93-616.
23This deletion is intended to control over any other Act of the
2493rd General Assembly that retains or incorporates that fee
25increase.

6by changing Section 80 as follows:
 
7    (740 ILCS 21/80)
8    Sec. 80. Stalking no contact orders; remedies.
9    (a) If the court finds that the petitioner has been a
10victim of stalking, a stalking no contact order shall issue;
11provided that the petitioner must also satisfy the
12requirements of Section 95 on emergency orders or Section 100
13on plenary orders. The petitioner shall not be denied a
14stalking no contact order because the petitioner or the
15respondent is a minor. The court, when determining whether or
16not to issue a stalking no contact order, may not require
17physical injury on the person of the petitioner. Modification
18and extension of prior stalking no contact orders shall be in
19accordance with this Act.
20    (b) A stalking no contact order shall order one or more of
21the following:
22        (1) prohibit the respondent from threatening to commit
23    or committing stalking;
24        (2) order the respondent not to have any contact with

 

 

HB4304- 428 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

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

 

 

HB4304- 429 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

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

 

 

HB4304- 430 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

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

 

 

HB4304- 431 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1this Act if the parents, guardian, or legal custodian
2directed, encouraged, or assisted the respondent minor in such
3conduct.
4    (c) The court may award the petitioner costs and attorneys
5fees if a stalking no contact order is granted.
6    (d) Monetary damages are not recoverable as a remedy.
7    (e) If the stalking no contact order prohibits the
8respondent from possessing a Firearm Owner's Identification
9Card, or possessing or buying firearms; the court shall
10confiscate the respondent's firearms Firearm Owner's
11Identification Card and immediately return the card to the

HB4304- 439 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    Sec. 210. Process.
2    (a) Summons. Any action for an order of protection,
3whether commenced alone or in conjunction with another
4proceeding, is a distinct cause of action and requires that a
5separate summons be issued and served, except that in pending
6cases the following methods may be used:
7        (1) By delivery of the summons to respondent
8    personally in open court in pending civil or criminal
9    cases.
10        (2) By notice in accordance with Section 210.1 in
11    civil cases in which the defendant has filed a general
12    appearance.
13    The summons shall be in the form prescribed by Supreme

15answer or appear within 7 days. Attachments to the summons or
16notice shall include the petition for order of protection and
17supporting affidavits, if any, and any emergency order of
18protection that has been issued. The enforcement of an order
19of protection under Section 223 shall not be affected by the
20lack of service, delivery, or notice, provided the
21requirements of subsection (d) of that Section are otherwise
22met.
23    (b) Blank.
24    (c) Expedited service. The summons shall be served by the
25sheriff or other law enforcement officer at the earliest time
26and shall take precedence over other summonses except those of

 

 

HB4304- 440 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1a similar emergency nature. Special process servers may be
2appointed at any time, and their designation shall not affect
3the responsibilities and authority of the sheriff or other
4official process servers. In counties with a population over
53,000,000, a special process server may not be appointed if
6the order of protection grants the surrender of a child, the
7surrender of a firearm or firearm owners identification card,
8or the exclusive possession of a shared residence.
9    (d) Remedies requiring actual notice. The counseling,
10payment of support, payment of shelter services, and payment
11of losses remedies provided by paragraphs 4, 12, 13, and 16 of
12subsection (b) of Section 214 may be granted only if
13respondent has been personally served with process, has
14answered or has made a general appearance.
15    (e) Remedies upon constructive notice. Service of process
16on a member of respondent's household or by publication shall
17be adequate for the remedies provided by paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 5,
186, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 15, and 17 of subsection (b) of Section
19214, but only if: (i) petitioner has made all reasonable
20efforts to accomplish actual service of process personally
21upon respondent, but respondent cannot be found to effect such
22service and (ii) petitioner files an affidavit or presents
23sworn testimony as to those efforts.
24    (f) Default. A plenary order of protection may be entered
25by default as follows:
26        (1) For any of the remedies sought in the petition, if

 

 

HB4304- 441 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    respondent has been served or given notice in accordance
2    with subsection (a) and if respondent then fails to appear
3    as directed or fails to appear on any subsequent
4    appearance or hearing date agreed to by the parties or set
5    by the court; or
6        (2) For any of the remedies provided in accordance
7    with subsection (e), if respondent fails to answer or
8    appear in accordance with the date set in the publication
9    notice or the return date indicated on the service of a

17    (750 ILCS 60/214)  (from Ch. 40, par. 2312-14)
18    Sec. 214. Order of protection; remedies.
19    (a) Issuance of order. If the court finds that petitioner
20has been abused by a family or household member or that
21petitioner is a high-risk adult who has been abused,
22neglected, or exploited, as defined in this Act, an order of
23protection prohibiting the abuse, neglect, or exploitation
24shall issue; provided that petitioner must also satisfy the
25requirements of one of the following Sections, as appropriate:

 

 

HB4304- 442 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1Section 217 on emergency orders, Section 218 on interim
2orders, or Section 219 on plenary orders. Petitioner shall not
3be denied an order of protection because petitioner or
4respondent is a minor. The court, when determining whether or
5not to issue an order of protection, shall not require
6physical manifestations of abuse on the person of the victim.
7Modification and extension of prior orders of protection shall
8be in accordance with this Act.
9    (b) Remedies and standards. The remedies to be included in
10an order of protection shall be determined in accordance with
11this Section and one of the following Sections, as
12appropriate: Section 217 on emergency orders, Section 218 on
13interim orders, and Section 219 on plenary orders. The
14remedies listed in this subsection shall be in addition to
15other civil or criminal remedies available to petitioner.
16        (1) Prohibition of abuse, neglect, or exploitation.
17    Prohibit respondent's harassment, interference with
18    personal liberty, intimidation of a dependent, physical
19    abuse, or willful deprivation, neglect or exploitation, as
20    defined in this Act, or stalking of the petitioner, as
21    defined in Section 12-7.3 of the Criminal Code of 2012, if
22    such abuse, neglect, exploitation, or stalking has
23    occurred or otherwise appears likely to occur if not
24    prohibited.
25        (2) Grant of exclusive possession of residence.
26    Prohibit respondent from entering or remaining in any

 

 

HB4304- 443 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    residence, household, or premises of the petitioner,
2    including one owned or leased by respondent, if petitioner
3    has a right to occupancy thereof. The grant of exclusive
4    possession of the residence, household, or premises shall
5    not affect title to real property, nor shall the court be
6    limited by the standard set forth in subsection (c-2) of
7    Section 501 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
8    Marriage Act.
9            (A) Right to occupancy. A party has a right to
10        occupancy of a residence or household if it is solely
11        or jointly owned or leased by that party, that party's
12        spouse, a person with a legal duty to support that
13        party or a minor child in that party's care, or by any
14        person or entity other than the opposing party that
15        authorizes that party's occupancy (e.g., a domestic
16        violence shelter). Standards set forth in subparagraph
17        (B) shall not preclude equitable relief.
18            (B) Presumption of hardships. If petitioner and
19        respondent each has the right to occupancy of a
20        residence or household, the court shall balance (i)
21        the hardships to respondent and any minor child or
22        dependent adult in respondent's care resulting from
23        entry of this remedy with (ii) the hardships to
24        petitioner and any minor child or dependent adult in
25        petitioner's care resulting from continued exposure to
26        the risk of abuse (should petitioner remain at the

 

 

HB4304- 444 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        residence or household) or from loss of possession of
2        the residence or household (should petitioner leave to
3        avoid the risk of abuse). When determining the balance
4        of hardships, the court shall also take into account
5        the accessibility of the residence or household.
6        Hardships need not be balanced if respondent does not
7        have a right to occupancy.
8            The balance of hardships is presumed to favor
9        possession by petitioner unless the presumption is
10        rebutted by a preponderance of the evidence, showing
11        that the hardships to respondent substantially
12        outweigh the hardships to petitioner and any minor
13        child or dependent adult in petitioner's care. The
14        court, on the request of petitioner or on its own
15        motion, may order respondent to provide suitable,
16        accessible, alternate housing for petitioner instead
17        of excluding respondent from a mutual residence or
18        household.
19        (3) Stay away order and additional prohibitions. Order
20    respondent to stay away from petitioner or any other
21    person protected by the order of protection, or prohibit
22    respondent from entering or remaining present at
23    petitioner's school, place of employment, or other
24    specified places at times when petitioner is present, or
25    both, if reasonable, given the balance of hardships.
26    Hardships need not be balanced for the court to enter a

 

 

HB4304- 445 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    stay away order or prohibit entry if respondent has no
2    right to enter the premises.
3            (A) If an order of protection grants petitioner
4        exclusive possession of the residence, or prohibits
5        respondent from entering the residence, or orders
6        respondent to stay away from petitioner or other
7        protected persons, then the court may allow respondent
8        access to the residence to remove items of clothing
9        and personal adornment used exclusively by respondent,
10        medications, and other items as the court directs. The
11        right to access shall be exercised on only one
12        occasion as the court directs and in the presence of an
13        agreed-upon adult third party or law enforcement
14        officer.
15            (B) When the petitioner and the respondent attend
16        the same public, private, or non-public elementary,
17        middle, or high school, the court when issuing an
18        order of protection and providing relief shall
19        consider the severity of the act, any continuing
20        physical danger or emotional distress to the
21        petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to the
22        petitioner and respondent under federal and State law,
23        the availability of a transfer of the respondent to
24        another school, a change of placement or a change of
25        program of the respondent, the expense, difficulty,
26        and educational disruption that would be caused by a

 

 

HB4304- 446 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

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

 

 

HB4304- 447 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        public, private, or non-public school attended by the
2        petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to
3        another attendance center within the respondent's
4        school district or private or non-public school, the
5        school district or private or non-public school shall
6        have sole discretion to determine the attendance
7        center to which the respondent is transferred. In the
8        event the court order results in a transfer of the
9        minor respondent to another attendance center, a
10        change in the respondent's placement, or a change of
11        the respondent's program, the parents, guardian, or
12        legal custodian of the respondent is responsible for
13        transportation and other costs associated with the
14        transfer or change.
15            (C) The court may order the parents, guardian, or
16        legal custodian of a minor respondent to take certain
17        actions or to refrain from taking certain actions to
18        ensure that the respondent complies with the order. In
19        the event the court orders a transfer of the
20        respondent to another school, the parents, guardian,
21        or legal custodian of the respondent is responsible
22        for transportation and other costs associated with the
23        change of school by the respondent.
24        (4) Counseling. Require or recommend the respondent to
25    undergo counseling for a specified duration with a social
26    worker, psychologist, clinical psychologist,

 

 

HB4304- 448 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    psychiatrist, family service agency, alcohol or substance
2    abuse program, mental health center guidance counselor,
3    agency providing services to elders, program designed for
4    domestic violence abusers or any other guidance service
5    the court deems appropriate. The Court may order the
6    respondent in any intimate partner relationship to report
7    to an Illinois Department of Human Services protocol
8    approved partner abuse intervention program for an
9    assessment and to follow all recommended treatment.
10        (5) Physical care and possession of the minor child.
11    In order to protect the minor child from abuse, neglect,
12    or unwarranted separation from the person who has been the
13    minor child's primary caretaker, or to otherwise protect
14    the well-being of the minor child, the court may do either
15    or both of the following: (i) grant petitioner physical
16    care or possession of the minor child, or both, or (ii)
17    order respondent to return a minor child to, or not remove
18    a minor child from, the physical care of a parent or person
19    in loco parentis.
20        If a court finds, after a hearing, that respondent has
21    committed abuse (as defined in Section 103) of a minor
22    child, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that
23    awarding physical care to respondent would not be in the
24    minor child's best interest.
25        (6) Temporary allocation of parental responsibilities:
26    significant decision-making. Award temporary

 

 

HB4304- 449 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    decision-making responsibility to petitioner in accordance
2    with this Section, the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution
3    of Marriage Act, the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015, and
4    this State's Uniform Child-Custody Jurisdiction and
5    Enforcement Act.
6        If a court finds, after a hearing, that respondent has
7    committed abuse (as defined in Section 103) of a minor
8    child, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that
9    awarding temporary significant decision-making
10    responsibility to respondent would not be in the child's
11    best interest.
12        (7) Parenting time. Determine the parenting time, if
13    any, of respondent in any case in which the court awards
14    physical care or allocates temporary significant
15    decision-making responsibility of a minor child to
16    petitioner. The court shall restrict or deny respondent's
17    parenting time with a minor child if the court finds that
18    respondent has done or is likely to do any of the
19    following: (i) abuse or endanger the minor child during
20    parenting time; (ii) use the parenting time as an
21    opportunity to abuse or harass petitioner or petitioner's
22    family or household members; (iii) improperly conceal or
23    detain the minor child; or (iv) otherwise act in a manner
24    that is not in the best interests of the minor child. The
25    court shall not be limited by the standards set forth in
26    Section 603.10 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of

 

 

HB4304- 450 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    Marriage Act. If the court grants parenting time, the
2    order shall specify dates and times for the parenting time
3    to take place or other specific parameters or conditions
4    that are appropriate. No order for parenting time shall
5    refer merely to the term "reasonable parenting time".
6        Petitioner may deny respondent access to the minor
7    child if, when respondent arrives for parenting time,
8    respondent is under the influence of drugs or alcohol and
9    constitutes a threat to the safety and well-being of
10    petitioner or petitioner's minor children or is behaving
11    in a violent or abusive manner.
12        If necessary to protect any member of petitioner's
13    family or household from future abuse, respondent shall be
14    prohibited from coming to petitioner's residence to meet
15    the minor child for parenting time, and the parties shall
16    submit to the court their recommendations for reasonable
17    alternative arrangements for parenting time. A person may
18    be approved to supervise parenting time only after filing
19    an affidavit accepting that responsibility and
20    acknowledging accountability to the court.
21        (8) Removal or concealment of minor child. Prohibit
22    respondent from removing a minor child from the State or
23    concealing the child within the State.
24        (9) Order to appear. Order the respondent to appear in
25    court, alone or with a minor child, to prevent abuse,
26    neglect, removal or concealment of the child, to return

 

 

HB4304- 451 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    the child to the custody or care of the petitioner or to
2    permit any court-ordered interview or examination of the
3    child or the respondent.
4        (10) Possession of personal property. Grant petitioner
5    exclusive possession of personal property and, if
6    respondent has possession or control, direct respondent to
7    promptly make it available to petitioner, if:
8            (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
9        property; or
10            (ii) the parties own the property jointly; sharing
11        it would risk abuse of petitioner by respondent or is
12        impracticable; and the balance of hardships favors
13        temporary possession by petitioner.
14        If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the
15    property is that it is marital property, the court may
16    award petitioner temporary possession thereof under the
17    standards of subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph only if a
18    proper proceeding has been filed under the Illinois
19    Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as now or
20    hereafter amended.
21        No order under this provision shall affect title to
22    property.
23        (11) Protection of property. Forbid the respondent
24    from taking, transferring, encumbering, concealing,
25    damaging or otherwise disposing of any real or personal
26    property, except as explicitly authorized by the court,

 

 

HB4304- 452 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    if:
2            (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
3        property; or
4            (ii) the parties own the property jointly, and the
5        balance of hardships favors granting this remedy.
6        If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the
7    property is that it is marital property, the court may
8    grant petitioner relief under subparagraph (ii) of this
9    paragraph only if a proper proceeding has been filed under
10    the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
11    now or hereafter amended.
12        The court may further prohibit respondent from
13    improperly using the financial or other resources of an
14    aged member of the family or household for the profit or
15    advantage of respondent or of any other person.
16        (11.5) Protection of animals. Grant the petitioner the
17    exclusive care, custody, or control of any animal owned,
18    possessed, leased, kept, or held by either the petitioner
19    or the respondent or a minor child residing in the
20    residence or household of either the petitioner or the
21    respondent and order the respondent to stay away from the
22    animal and forbid the respondent from taking,
23    transferring, encumbering, concealing, harming, or
24    otherwise disposing of the animal.
25        (12) Order for payment of support. Order respondent to
26    pay temporary support for the petitioner or any child in

 

 

HB4304- 453 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    the petitioner's care or over whom the petitioner has been
2    allocated parental responsibility, when the respondent has
3    a legal obligation to support that person, in accordance
4    with the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage
5    Act, which shall govern, among other matters, the amount
6    of support, payment through the clerk and withholding of
7    income to secure payment. An order for child support may
8    be granted to a petitioner with lawful physical care of a
9    child, or an order or agreement for physical care of a
10    child, prior to entry of an order allocating significant
11    decision-making responsibility. Such a support order shall
12    expire upon entry of a valid order allocating parental
13    responsibility differently and vacating the petitioner's
14    significant decision-making authority, unless otherwise
15    provided in the order.
16        (13) Order for payment of losses. Order respondent to
17    pay petitioner for losses suffered as a direct result of
18    the abuse, neglect, or exploitation. Such losses shall
19    include, but not be limited to, medical expenses, lost
20    earnings or other support, repair or replacement of
21    property damaged or taken, reasonable attorney's fees,
22    court costs and moving or other travel expenses, including
23    additional reasonable expenses for temporary shelter and
24    restaurant meals.
25            (i) Losses affecting family needs. If a party is
26        entitled to seek maintenance, child support or

 

 

HB4304- 454 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        property distribution from the other party under the
2        Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
3        now or hereafter amended, the court may order
4        respondent to reimburse petitioner's actual losses, to
5        the extent that such reimbursement would be

7    under subsection (b) of Section 203, or if necessary to
8    prevent abuse or wrongful removal or concealment of a

26    remedies listed in paragraphs (1) through (16) of this

 

 

HB4304- 458 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

11        hours after it receives the order, that one of the
12        following applies:
13                (i) The account holder named in the order has
14            terminated the account.
15                (ii) A difference in network technology would
16            prevent or impair the functionality of a device on
17            a network if the transfer occurs.
18                (iii) The transfer would cause a geographic or
19            other limitation on network or service provision
20            to the petitioner.
21                (iv) Another technological or operational
22            issue would prevent or impair the use of the
23            telephone number if the transfer occurs.
24            (C) The petitioner assumes all financial
25        responsibility for and right to the use of any
26        telephone number transferred under this paragraph. In

20        Commission within 30 days of such change.
21            (G) The Illinois Commerce Commission shall
22        maintain the list of registered agents for service for
23        each wireless telephone service provider on the
24        Commission's website. The Commission may consult with

HB4304- 461 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        is provided and displayed.
2    (c) Relevant factors; findings.
3        (1) In determining whether to grant a specific remedy,
4    other than payment of support, the court shall consider
5    relevant factors, including but not limited to the
6    following:
7            (i) the nature, frequency, severity, pattern and
8        consequences of the respondent's past abuse, neglect
9        or exploitation of the petitioner or any family or
10        household member, including the concealment of his or
11        her location in order to evade service of process or
12        notice, and the likelihood of danger of future abuse,
13        neglect, or exploitation to petitioner or any member
14        of petitioner's or respondent's family or household;
15        and
16            (ii) the danger that any minor child will be
17        abused or neglected or improperly relocated from the
18        jurisdiction, improperly concealed within the State or
19        improperly separated from the child's primary
20        caretaker.
21        (2) In comparing relative hardships resulting to the
22    parties from loss of possession of the family home, the
23    court shall consider relevant factors, including but not
24    limited to the following:
25            (i) availability, accessibility, cost, safety,
26        adequacy, location and other characteristics of

 

 

HB4304- 462 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        alternate housing for each party and any minor child
2        or dependent adult in the party's care;
3            (ii) the effect on the party's employment; and
4            (iii) the effect on the relationship of the party,
5        and any minor child or dependent adult in the party's
6        care, to family, school, church and community.
7        (3) Subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph
8    (4) of this subsection, the court shall make its findings
9    in an official record or in writing, and shall at a minimum
10    set forth the following:
11            (i) That the court has considered the applicable
12        relevant factors described in paragraphs (1) and (2)
13        of this subsection.
14            (ii) Whether the conduct or actions of respondent,
15        unless prohibited, will likely cause irreparable harm
16        or continued abuse.
17            (iii) Whether it is necessary to grant the
18        requested relief in order to protect petitioner or
19        other alleged abused persons.
20        (4) For purposes of issuing an ex parte emergency
21    order of protection, the court, as an alternative to or as
22    a supplement to making the findings described in
23    paragraphs (c)(3)(i) through (c)(3)(iii) of this
24    subsection, may use the following procedure:
25        When a verified petition for an emergency order of
26    protection in accordance with the requirements of Sections

 

 

HB4304- 463 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    203 and 217 is presented to the court, the court shall
2    examine petitioner on oath or affirmation. An emergency
3    order of protection shall be issued by the court if it
4    appears from the contents of the petition and the
5    examination of petitioner that the averments are
6    sufficient to indicate abuse by respondent and to support
7    the granting of relief under the issuance of the emergency
8    order of protection.
9        (5) Never married parties. No rights or
10    responsibilities for a minor child born outside of
11    marriage attach to a putative father until a father and
12    child relationship has been established under the Illinois

14    the Illinois Public Aid Code, Section 12 of the Vital
15    Records Act, the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Probate
16    Act of 1975, the Revised Uniform Reciprocal Enforcement of
17    Support Act, the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act,
18    the Expedited Child Support Act of 1990, any judicial,
19    administrative, or other act of another state or
20    territory, any other Illinois statute, or by any foreign
21    nation establishing the father and child relationship, any
22    other proceeding substantially in conformity with the
23    Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity
24    Reconciliation Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-193), or where
25    both parties appeared in open court or at an
26    administrative hearing acknowledging under oath or

 

 

HB4304- 464 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1    admitting by affirmation the existence of a father and
2    child relationship. Absent such an adjudication, finding,
3    or acknowledgment, no putative father shall be granted
4    temporary allocation of parental responsibilities,
5    including parenting time with the minor child, or physical
6    care and possession of the minor child, nor shall an order
7    of payment for support of the minor child be entered.
8    (d) Balance of hardships; findings. If the court finds
9that the balance of hardships does not support the granting of
10a remedy governed by paragraph (2), (3), (10), (11), or (16) of
11subsection (b) of this Section, which may require such
12balancing, the court's findings shall so indicate and shall
13include a finding as to whether granting the remedy will
14result in hardship to respondent that would substantially
15outweigh the hardship to petitioner from denial of the remedy.
16The findings shall be an official record or in writing.
17    (e) Denial of remedies. Denial of any remedy shall not be
18based, in whole or in part, on evidence that:
19        (1) Respondent has cause for any use of force, unless
20    that cause satisfies the standards for justifiable use of
21    force provided by Article 7 of the Criminal Code of 2012;
22        (2) Respondent was voluntarily intoxicated;
23        (3) Petitioner acted in self-defense or defense of
24    another, provided that, if petitioner utilized force, such
25    force was justifiable under Article 7 of the Criminal Code
26    of 2012;

 

 

HB4304- 465 -LRB103 35638 RLC 65713 b

1        (4) Petitioner did not act in self-defense or defense
2    of another;
3        (5) Petitioner left the residence or household to
4    avoid further abuse, neglect, or exploitation by
5    respondent;
6        (6) Petitioner did not leave the residence or
7    household to avoid further abuse, neglect, or exploitation
8    by respondent;
9        (7) Conduct by any family or household member excused
10    the abuse, neglect, or exploitation by respondent, unless
11    that same conduct would have excused such abuse, neglect,
12    or exploitation if the parties had not been family or
13    household members.

11    Illinois State Police, shall develop a procedure to
12    determine whether a firearm delivered to the administrator
13    under this Act has been stolen or used in the commission of
14    a crime. The Illinois State Police shall determine the
15    appropriate disposition of a firearm that has been stolen

17    shall attempt to return a firearm that has not been stolen
