24                  (A)  For a first violation of subsection (a) of
25             Section  11-501,  in  addition  to any other penalty
26             that may be imposed under subsection (c) of  Section

HB0087 Enrolled             -24-     LRB093 02293 DRJ 02708 b
 1             Section 11-501, in addition  to  any  other  penalty

 9        (d)  In  any  case in which a sentence originally imposed
10    is vacated, the case shall be remanded to  the  trial  court.
11    The  trial  court shall hold a hearing under Section 5-4-1 of
12    the Unified Code of Corrections which may include evidence of
13    the defendant's life, moral character and  occupation  during
14    the  time  since the original sentence was passed.  The trial
15    court shall then impose sentence  upon  the  defendant.   The
16    trial  court  may  impose  any sentence which could have been
17    imposed at the original trial subject to Section 5-5-4 of the
18    Unified Code of Corrections. If  a  sentence  is  vacated  on
19    appeal  or  on  collateral  attack  due to the failure of the
20    trier of fact at trial to determine beyond a reasonable doubt
21    the existence of a  fact  (other  than  a  prior  conviction)
22    necessary  to  increase the punishment for the offense beyond
23    the  statutory  maximum  otherwise  applicable,  either   the
24    defendant  may  be  re-sentenced  to  a term within the range
25    otherwise provided or, if  the  State  files  notice  of  its
26    intention  to again seek the extended sentence, the defendant
27    shall be afforded a new trial.

29    assault or aggravated criminal  sexual  abuse  under  Section
30    12-13  or  12-16  of  the  Criminal  Code  of 1961 results in
31    conviction of a defendant who was  a  family  member  of  the
32    victim  at  the  time  of  the commission of the offense, the
33    court shall consider the safety and welfare of the victim and
34    may impose a sentence of probation only where:
 
HB0087 Enrolled             -25-     LRB093 02293 DRJ 02708 b
 1             (1)  the  court  finds  (A)  or  (B)  or  both   are
 2        appropriate:
 3                  (A)  the  defendant  is  willing  to  undergo a
 4             court approved  counseling  program  for  a  minimum
 5             duration of 2 years; or
 6                  (B)  the defendant is willing to participate in
 7             a  court  approved plan including but not limited to
 8             the defendant's:
 9                       (i)  removal from the household;
10                       (ii)  restricted contact with the victim;
11                       (iii)  continued financial support of  the
12                  family;
13                       (iv)  restitution  for  harm  done  to the
14                  victim; and
15                       (v)  compliance with  any  other  measures
16                  that the court may deem appropriate; and
17             (2)  the  court  orders the defendant to pay for the
18        victim's counseling services,  to  the  extent  that  the
19        court finds, after considering the defendant's income and
20        assets,  that  the  defendant  is  financially capable of
21        paying for such services, if  the  victim  was  under  18
22        years  of  age  at the time the offense was committed and
23        requires counseling as a result of the offense.
24        Probation may be revoked or modified pursuant to  Section
25    5-6-4;  except where the court determines at the hearing that
26    the defendant violated a condition of his  or  her  probation
27    restricting  contact  with the victim or other family members
28    or commits another offense with the victim  or  other  family
29    members, the court shall revoke the defendant's probation and
30    impose a term of imprisonment.
31        For  the  purposes  of  this Section, "family member" and
32    "victim" shall have the meanings ascribed to them in  Section
33    12-12 of the Criminal Code of 1961.

 1    proceedings to order a forfeiture of property, to suspend  or

10    test for infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or
11    any   other   identified   causative   agent   of    acquired

13    shall be performed only  by  appropriately  licensed  medical
14    practitioners  and  may  include  an  analysis  of any bodily
15    fluids as well as an examination of the  defendant's  person.

19    sealed envelope to the  judge  of  the  court  in  which  the
20    conviction  was entered for the judge's inspection in camera.
21    Acting in accordance with the best interests  of  the  victim
22    and  the  public,  the  judge  shall  have  the discretion to
23    determine to whom, if anyone, the results of the testing  may
24    be revealed. The court shall notify the defendant of the test
25    results.  The court shall also notify the victim if requested
26    by  the  victim, and if the victim is under the age of 15 and
27    if requested by the victim's parents or legal  guardian,  the
28    court  shall notify the victim's parents or legal guardian of
29    the test results.  The court shall provide information on the
30    availability of HIV testing and counseling at  Department  of
31    Public  Health  facilities to all parties to whom the results

 2    and  the  court  shall  grant  the  disclosure if the State's
 3    Attorney shows it is relevant in order to prosecute a  charge
 4    of  criminal transmission of HIV under Section 12-16.2 of the
 5    Criminal Code of 1961 against the defendant.  The court shall
 6    order that the cost of any such test shall  be  paid  by  the
 7    county  and  may  be  taxed  as  costs  against the convicted
 8    defendant.

11    Department of Public Health  including  but  not  limited  to
12    tuberculosis,  the  results  of  the test shall be personally
13    delivered by the warden or his or her designee  in  a  sealed
14    envelope  to  the judge of the court in which the inmate must
15    appear for the judge's inspection in camera if  requested  by
16    the  judge.   Acting in accordance with the best interests of
17    those in the courtroom, the judge shall have  the  discretion
18    to  determine  what  if  any  precautions need to be taken to
19    prevent transmission of the disease in the courtroom.

24    immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV)  or   any   other   identified
25    causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
26    Except as otherwise provided by law, the results of such test
27    shall  be kept strictly confidential by all medical personnel
28    involved in the testing and must be personally delivered in a
29    sealed envelope to the  judge  of  the  court  in  which  the
30    conviction  was entered for the judge's inspection in camera.
31    Acting in accordance with the best interests of  the  public,

33    anyone, the results of the testing may be revealed. The court
34    shall notify the defendant of  a  positive  test  showing  an

 3    testing   and  counseling  at  Department  of  Public  Health
 4    facilities to all parties to whom the results of the  testing
 5    are revealed and shall direct the State's Attorney to provide
 6    the  information  to  the  victim  when  possible.  A State's
 7    Attorney may petition the court to obtain the results of  any
 8    HIV  test  administered  under  this   Section, and the court
 9    shall grant the disclosure if the State's Attorney  shows  it
10    is  relevant  in  order  to  prosecute  a  charge of criminal
11    transmission of HIV under Section  12-16.2  of  the  Criminal
12    Code  of  1961  against  the defendant. The court shall order
13    that the cost of any such test shall be paid  by  the  county
14    and may be taxed as costs against the convicted defendant.
15        (i)  All  fines  and penalties imposed under this Section
16    for any violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois
17    Vehicle Code, or a similar provision of  a  local  ordinance,
18    and any violation of the Child Passenger Protection Act, or a
19    similar  provision  of  a local ordinance, shall be collected
20    and disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under  Section
21    27.5 of the Clerks of Courts Act.
22        (j)  In  cases  when  prosecution  for  any  violation of
23    Section 11-6,  11-8,  11-9,  11-11,  11-14,  11-15,  11-15.1,
24    11-16,   11-17,  11-17.1,  11-18,  11-18.1,  11-19,  11-19.1,
25    11-19.2, 11-20.1, 11-21, 12-13,  12-14,  12-14.1,  12-15,  or
26    12-16  of  the  Criminal  Code  of 1961, any violation of the
27    Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or any violation  of  the
28    Cannabis  Control Act results in conviction, a disposition of
29    court supervision, or an order  of  probation  granted  under
30    Section  10 of the Cannabis Control Act or Section 410 of the
31    Illinois Controlled Substance Act of a defendant,  the  court
32    shall  determine  whether  the  defendant  is  employed  by a
33    facility or center as defined under the  Child  Care  Act  of
34    1969,  a public or private elementary or secondary school, or
 
HB0087 Enrolled             -29-     LRB093 02293 DRJ 02708 b
 1    otherwise works with children under 18  years  of  age  on  a
 2    daily  basis.   When  a  defendant  is so employed, the court
 3    shall order the Clerk of the Court to  send  a  copy  of  the
 4    judgment  of  conviction or order of supervision or probation
 5    to  the  defendant's  employer  by  certified  mail.  If  the
 6    employer of the defendant is a school, the Clerk of the Court
 7    shall direct the  mailing  of  a  copy  of  the  judgment  of
 8    conviction  or  order  of  supervision  or  probation  to the
 9    appropriate regional superintendent of schools.  The regional
10    superintendent of schools shall notify  the  State  Board  of
11    Education of any notification under this subsection.
12        (j-5)  A  defendant  at  least  17  years  of  age who is
13    convicted of  a  felony  and  who  has  not  been  previously
14    convicted  of a misdemeanor or felony and who is sentenced to
15    a  term  of  imprisonment  in  the  Illinois  Department   of
16    Corrections  shall  as  a condition of his or her sentence be
17    required by the court to attend educational courses  designed
18    to  prepare  the  defendant  for a high school diploma and to
19    work toward a high school diploma or to work  toward  passing
20    the high school level Test of General Educational Development
21    (GED)  or  to  work  toward  completing a vocational training
22    program offered by  the  Department  of  Corrections.   If  a
23    defendant fails to complete the educational training required
24    by  his or her sentence during the term of incarceration, the
25    Prisoner Review Board shall,  as  a  condition  of  mandatory
26    supervised  release, require the defendant, at his or her own
27    expense, to pursue a course of study  toward  a  high  school
28    diploma  or  passage  of  the  GED test.  The Prisoner Review
29    Board shall revoke the  mandatory  supervised  release  of  a
30    defendant  who  wilfully fails to comply with this subsection
31    (j-5) upon his or her release from  confinement  in  a  penal
32    institution  while  serving  a  mandatory  supervised release
33    term; however, the inability of the defendant after making  a
34    good  faith  effort  to  obtain  financial aid or pay for the
 
HB0087 Enrolled             -30-     LRB093 02293 DRJ 02708 b
 1    educational training shall not be deemed a wilful failure  to
 2    comply.    The  Prisoner  Review  Board  shall  recommit  the
 3    defendant whose mandatory supervised release  term  has  been
 4    revoked  under  this  subsection (j-5) as provided in Section
 5    3-3-9.  This subsection (j-5) does not apply to  a  defendant
 6    who  has a high school diploma or has successfully passed the
 7    GED test. This subsection (j-5) does not apply to a defendant
 8    who is determined by the court to be developmentally disabled
 9    or otherwise mentally incapable of completing the educational
10    or vocational program.
11        (k)  A court may not impose a sentence or disposition for
12    a felony or misdemeanor that requires  the  defendant  to  be
13    implanted  or  injected  with  or  to  use  any form of birth
14    control.
15        (l) (A)  Except  as  provided   in   paragraph   (C)   of
16        subsection  (l), whenever a defendant, who is an alien as
17        defined  by  the  Immigration  and  Nationality  Act,  is
18        convicted of any felony or misdemeanor offense, the court
19        after sentencing the defendant may, upon  motion  of  the
20        State's  Attorney,  hold  sentence in abeyance and remand
21        the defendant to the custody of the Attorney  General  of
22        the  United  States  or his or her designated agent to be
23        deported when:
24                  (1)  a final  order  of  deportation  has  been
25             issued against the defendant pursuant to proceedings
26             under the Immigration and Nationality Act, and
27                  (2)  the deportation of the defendant would not
28             deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct
29             and  would  not  be  inconsistent  with  the ends of
30             justice.
31             Otherwise,  the  defendant  shall  be  sentenced  as
32        provided in this Chapter V.
33             (B)  If the defendant has already been sentenced for
34        a felony or misdemeanor offense, or has  been  placed  on
 
HB0087 Enrolled             -31-     LRB093 02293 DRJ 02708 b
 1        probation under Section 10 of the Cannabis Control Act or
 2        Section  410  of  the Illinois Controlled Substances Act,
 3        the court may, upon motion of  the  State's  Attorney  to
 4        suspend the sentence imposed, commit the defendant to the
 5        custody  of  the Attorney General of the United States or
 6        his or her designated agent when:
 7                  (1)  a final  order  of  deportation  has  been
 8             issued against the defendant pursuant to proceedings
 9             under the Immigration and Nationality Act, and
10                  (2)  the deportation of the defendant would not
11             deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct
12             and  would  not  be  inconsistent  with  the ends of
13             justice.
14             (C)  This subsection (l) does not apply to offenders
15        who are subject to the provisions  of  paragraph  (2)  of
16        subsection (a) of Section 3-6-3.
17             (D)  Upon  motion  of  the  State's  Attorney,  if a
18        defendant sentenced under this  Section  returns  to  the
19        jurisdiction of the United States, the defendant shall be
20        recommitted to the custody of the county from which he or
21        she  was  sentenced.  Thereafter,  the defendant shall be
22        brought before the sentencing court, which may impose any
23        sentence that was available under Section  5-5-3  at  the
24        time  of  initial sentencing.  In addition, the defendant
25        shall not be eligible for additional good conduct  credit
26        for meritorious service as provided under Section 3-6-6.
27        (m)  A   person   convicted  of  criminal  defacement  of
28    property under Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code  of  1961,
29    in  which  the  property damage exceeds $300 and the property
30    damaged is a school building, shall  be  ordered  to  perform
31    community  service  that  may  include  cleanup,  removal, or
32    painting over the defacement.
33        (n)  The court may  sentence  a  person  convicted  of  a
34    violation  of Section 12-19, 12-21, or 16-1.3 of the Criminal
 
HB0087 Enrolled             -32-     LRB093 02293 DRJ 02708 b
 1    Code of 1961 (i) to an impact incarceration  program  if  the
 2    person  is  otherwise eligible for that program under Section
 3    5-8-1.1, (ii) to community service, or (iii) if the person is
 4    an addict or alcoholic, as  defined  in  the  Alcoholism  and
 5    Other  Drug  Abuse  and  Dependency  Act,  to  a substance or
 6    alcohol abuse program licensed under that Act.

16        Sec. 2-6.6.  Person convicted of certain offenses against
17    the  elderly  or  disabled.    A person who is convicted of a
18    violation of Section 12-19, 12-21, or 16-1.3 of the  Criminal
19    Code  of 1961 may not receive any property, benefit, or other

21    offense, whether as heir, legatee, beneficiary, joint tenant,
22    tenant  by the entirety, survivor, appointee, or in any other
23    capacity and whether the property, benefit, or other interest
24    passes  pursuant  to  any   form   of   title   registration,
25    testamentary   or   nontestamentary   instrument,  intestacy,
26    renunciation,  or  any  other  circumstance.   The  property,
27    benefit, or other  interest  shall  pass  as  if  the  person
28    convicted  of  a violation of Section 12-19, 12-21, or 16-1.3
29    of the Criminal  Code  of  1961  died  before  the  decedent;
30    provided  that  with  respect  to  joint  tenancy property or

 2    Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  a  person  convicted  of  a
 3    violation  of Section 12-19, 12-21, or 16-1.3 of the Criminal

 5    benefit,  or  an  interest  in  any  capacity  and  under any
 6    circumstances described in this Section if it is demonstrated
 7    by clear and convincing evidence  that  the  victim  of  that
 8    offense   knew  of  the  conviction  and  subsequent  to  the
 9    conviction  expressed  or  ratified  his  or  her  intent  to
10    transfer the property, benefit, or  interest  to  the  person

26    written notice of the conviction in sufficient  time  to  act
27    upon the notice.
28        The Department of State Police shall have access to State
29    of Illinois databases containing information that may help in
