This paragraph (6) applies | 15 | | only when there was no previous notice of the emergency to | 16 | | the investigative or law enforcement officer sufficient to | 17 | | obtain prior judicial approval, and the officer reasonably | 18 | | believes that an order permitting the obtaining of location | 19 | | information would issue were there prior judicial review. | 20 | | An emergency situation exists when: | 21 | | (i) the use of the electronic device is necessary | 22 | | for the protection of the investigative or law | 23 | | enforcement officer or a person acting at the direction | 24 | | of law enforcement; or | 25 | | (ii) the situation involves: | 26 | | (I) a clear and present danger of imminent |

The | 13 | | State may overcome this presumption by proving the | 14 | | applicability of a judicially recognized exception to the | 15 | | exclusionary rule of the Fourth Amendment to the United States | 16 | | Constitution or Article I, Section 6 of the Illinois | 17 | | Constitution, or by a preponderance of the evidence that the | 18 | | law enforcement officer was acting in good faith and reasonably | 19 | | believed that one or more of the exceptions identified in | 20 | | Section 15 existed at the time the location information was | 21 | | obtained.
| 22 | | Section 25. Providing location information to a law | 23 | | enforcement agency not required. Nothing in this Act shall be | 24 | | construed to require a person to provide current or future |

|
| 1 | | location information to a law enforcement agency under Section | 2 | | 15.
