| 1 | | AMENDMENT TO HOUSE BILL 3529
| 2 | | AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend House Bill 3529 on page 6, by | 3 | | inserting immediately below line 5 the following:
| 4 | | "Section 10. The Unified Code of Corrections is amended by | 5 | | changing Section 5-5-6 as follows:
| 6 | | (730 ILCS 5/5-5-6) (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-5-6)
| 7 | | Sec. 5-5-6. In all convictions for offenses in violation of | 8 | | the Criminal
Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 or of | 9 | | Section 11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code in which the person | 10 | | received any injury to his or her person or damage
to his or | 11 | | her real or personal property as a result of the criminal act | 12 | | of the
defendant, the court shall order restitution as provided | 13 | | in this Section. In
all other cases, except cases in which | 14 | | restitution is required under this
Section, the court must at | 15 | | the sentence hearing determine whether restitution
is an | 16 | | appropriate sentence to be imposed on each defendant convicted |
| | | 09900HB3529ham001 | - 2 - | LRB099 09357 RLC 32650 a |
|
| 1 | | of an
offense. If the court determines that an order directing | 2 | | the offender to make
restitution is appropriate, the offender | 3 | | may be sentenced to make restitution.
The court may consider | 4 | | restitution an appropriate sentence to be imposed on each | 5 | | defendant convicted of an offense in addition to a sentence of | 6 | | imprisonment. The sentence of the defendant to a term of | 7 | | imprisonment is not a mitigating factor that prevents the court | 8 | | from ordering the defendant to pay restitution. If
the offender | 9 | | is sentenced to make restitution the Court shall determine the
| 10 | | restitution as hereinafter set forth:
| 11 | | (a) At the sentence hearing, the court shall determine | 12 | | whether the
property
may be restored in kind to the | 13 | | possession of the owner or the person entitled
to | 14 | | possession thereof; or whether the defendant is possessed | 15 | | of sufficient
skill to repair and restore property damaged; | 16 | | or whether the defendant should
be required to make | 17 | | restitution in cash, for out-of-pocket expenses, damages,
| 18 | | losses, or injuries found to have been proximately caused | 19 | | by the conduct
of the defendant or another for whom the | 20 | | defendant is legally accountable
under the provisions of | 21 | | Article 5 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code | 22 | | of 2012.
| 23 | | (b) In fixing the amount of restitution to be paid in | 24 | | cash, the court
shall allow credit for property returned in | 25 | | kind, for property damages ordered
to be repaired by the | 26 | | defendant, and for property ordered to be restored
by the |
| | | 09900HB3529ham001 | - 3 - | LRB099 09357 RLC 32650 a |
|
| 1 | | defendant; and after granting the credit, the court shall | 2 | | assess
the actual out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages, | 3 | | and injuries suffered
by the victim named in the charge and | 4 | | any other victims who may also have
suffered out-of-pocket | 5 | | expenses, losses, damages, and injuries proximately
caused | 6 | | by the same criminal conduct of the defendant, and | 7 | | insurance
carriers who have indemnified the named victim or | 8 | | other victims for the
out-of-pocket expenses, losses, | 9 | | damages, or injuries, provided that in no
event shall | 10 | | restitution be ordered to be paid on account of pain and
| 11 | | suffering. When a victim's out-of-pocket expenses have | 12 | | been paid pursuant to the Crime Victims Compensation Act, | 13 | | the court shall order restitution be paid to the | 14 | | compensation program. If a defendant is placed on | 15 | | supervision for, or convicted of,
domestic battery, the | 16 | | defendant shall be required to pay restitution to any
| 17 | | domestic violence shelter in which the victim and any other | 18 | | family or household
members lived because of the domestic | 19 | | battery. The amount of the restitution
shall equal the | 20 | | actual expenses of the domestic violence shelter in | 21 | | providing
housing and any other services for the victim and | 22 | | any other family or household
members living at the | 23 | | shelter. If a defendant fails to pay restitution in
the | 24 | | manner or within
the time period specified by the court, | 25 | | the court may enter an order
directing the sheriff to seize | 26 | | any real or personal property of a defendant
to the extent |
| | | 09900HB3529ham001 | - 4 - | LRB099 09357 RLC 32650 a |
|
| 1 | | necessary to satisfy the order of restitution and dispose | 2 | | of
the property by public sale. All proceeds from such sale | 3 | | in excess of the
amount of restitution plus court costs and | 4 | | the costs of the sheriff in
conducting the sale shall be | 5 | | paid to the defendant. The defendant convicted of
domestic | 6 | | battery, if a person under 18 years of age was present and | 7 | | witnessed the domestic battery of the
victim, is liable to | 8 | | pay restitution for the cost of any counseling required
for
| 9 | | the child at the discretion of the court.
| 10 | | (c) In cases where more than one defendant is | 11 | | accountable for the same
criminal conduct that results in | 12 | | out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages,
or injuries, each | 13 | | defendant shall be ordered to pay restitution in the amount
| 14 | | of the total actual out-of-pocket expenses, losses, | 15 | | damages, or injuries
to the victim proximately caused by | 16 | | the conduct of all of the defendants
who are legally | 17 | | accountable for the offense.
| 18 | | (1) In no event shall the victim be entitled to | 19 | | recover restitution in
excess of the actual | 20 | | out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages, or injuries,
| 21 | | proximately caused by the conduct of all of the | 22 | | defendants.
| 23 | | (2) As between the defendants, the court may | 24 | | apportion the restitution
that is payable in | 25 | | proportion to each co-defendant's culpability in the
| 26 | | commission of the offense.
|
| | | 09900HB3529ham001 | - 5 - | LRB099 09357 RLC 32650 a |
|
| 1 | | (3) In the absence of a specific order apportioning | 2 | | the restitution,
each defendant shall bear his pro rata | 3 | | share of the restitution.
| 4 | | (4) As between the defendants, each defendant | 5 | | shall be entitled to a pro
rata reduction in the total | 6 | | restitution required to be paid to the victim
for | 7 | | amounts of restitution actually paid by co-defendants, | 8 | | and defendants
who shall have paid more than their pro | 9 | | rata share shall be entitled to
refunds to be computed | 10 | | by the court as additional amounts are
paid by | 11 | | co-defendants.
| 12 | | (d) In instances where a defendant has more than one | 13 | | criminal charge
pending
against him in a single case, or | 14 | | more than one case, and the defendant stands
convicted of | 15 | | one or more charges, a plea agreement negotiated by the | 16 | | State's
Attorney and the defendants may require the | 17 | | defendant to make restitution
to victims of charges that | 18 | | have been dismissed or which it is contemplated
will be | 19 | | dismissed under the terms of the plea agreement, and under | 20 | | the
agreement, the court may impose a sentence of | 21 | | restitution on the charge
or charges of which the defendant | 22 | | has been convicted that would require
the defendant to make | 23 | | restitution to victims of other offenses as provided
in the | 24 | | plea agreement.
| 25 | | (e) The court may require the defendant to apply the | 26 | | balance of the cash
bond, after payment of court costs, and |
| | | 09900HB3529ham001 | - 6 - | LRB099 09357 RLC 32650 a |
|
| 1 | | any fine that may be imposed to
the payment of restitution.
| 2 | | (f) Taking into consideration the ability of the | 3 | | defendant to pay, including any real or personal property | 4 | | or any other assets of the defendant,
the court shall | 5 | | determine whether restitution shall be paid in a single
| 6 | | payment or in installments, and shall fix a period of time | 7 | | not in excess
of 5 years, except for violations of Sections | 8 | | 16-1.3 and 17-56 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the | 9 | | Criminal Code of 2012, or the period of time specified in | 10 | | subsection (f-1), not including periods of incarceration, | 11 | | within which payment of
restitution is to be paid in full.
| 12 | | Complete restitution shall be paid in as short a time | 13 | | period as possible.
However, if the court deems it | 14 | | necessary and in the best interest of the
victim, the court | 15 | | may extend beyond 5 years the period of time within which | 16 | | the
payment of restitution is to be paid.
If the defendant | 17 | | is ordered to pay restitution and the court orders that
| 18 | | restitution is to be paid over a period greater than 6 | 19 | | months, the court
shall order that the defendant make | 20 | | monthly payments; the court may waive
this requirement of | 21 | | monthly payments only if there is a specific finding of
| 22 | | good cause for waiver.
| 23 | | (f-1)(1) In addition to any other penalty prescribed by | 24 | | law and any restitution ordered under this Section that did | 25 | | not include long-term physical health care costs, the court | 26 | | may, upon conviction of any misdemeanor or felony, order a |
| | | 09900HB3529ham001 | - 7 - | LRB099 09357 RLC 32650 a |
|
| 1 | | defendant to pay restitution to a victim in accordance with | 2 | | the provisions of this subsection (f-1) if the victim has | 3 | | suffered physical injury as a result of the offense that is | 4 | | reasonably probable to require or has required long-term | 5 | | physical health care for more than 3 months. As used in | 6 | | this subsection (f-1) "long-term physical health care" | 7 | | includes mental health care.
| 8 | | (2) The victim's estimate of long-term physical health | 9 | | care costs may be made as part of a victim impact statement | 10 | | under Section 6 of the Rights of Crime Victims and | 11 | | Witnesses Act or made separately. The court shall enter the | 12 | | long-term physical health care restitution order at the | 13 | | time of sentencing. An order of restitution made under this | 14 | | subsection (f-1) shall fix a monthly amount to be paid by | 15 | | the defendant for as long as long-term physical health care | 16 | | of the victim is required as a result of the offense. The | 17 | | order may exceed the length of any sentence imposed upon | 18 | | the defendant for the criminal activity. The court shall | 19 | | include as a special finding in the judgment of conviction | 20 | | its determination of the monthly cost of long-term physical | 21 | | health care.
| 22 | | (3) After a sentencing order has been entered, the | 23 | | court may from time to time, on the petition of either the | 24 | | defendant or the victim, or upon its own motion, enter an | 25 | | order for restitution for long-term physical care or modify | 26 | | the existing order for restitution for long-term physical |
| | | 09900HB3529ham001 | - 8 - | LRB099 09357 RLC 32650 a |
|
| 1 | | care as to the amount of monthly payments. Any modification | 2 | | of the order shall be based only upon a substantial change | 3 | | of circumstances relating to the cost of long-term physical | 4 | | health care or the financial condition of either the | 5 | | defendant or the victim. The petition shall be filed as | 6 | | part of the original criminal docket.
| 7 | | (g) In addition to the sentences provided for in | 8 | | Sections 11-1.20, 11-1.30, 11-1.40, 11-1.50, 11-1.60, | 9 | | 11-19.2, 11-20.1, 11-20.1B, 11-20.3, 12-13,
12-14, | 10 | | 12-14.1, 12-15, and 12-16, and subdivision (a)(4) of | 11 | | Section 11-14.4, of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the | 12 | | Criminal Code of 2012, the court may
order any person who | 13 | | is convicted of violating any of those Sections or who was | 14 | | charged with any of those offenses and which charge was | 15 | | reduced to another charge as a result of a plea agreement | 16 | | under subsection (d) of this Section to meet
all or any | 17 | | portion of the financial obligations of treatment, | 18 | | including but not
limited to medical, psychiatric, or | 19 | | rehabilitative treatment or psychological counseling,
| 20 | | prescribed for the victim or victims of the offense.
| 21 | | (g-1) In addition to the sentence provided for in | 22 | | Section 17-56 of the Criminal Code of 2012, the State's | 23 | | Attorney of the county that prosecuted the defendant shall | 24 | | request that the court order a person convicted of | 25 | | financial exploitation of an elderly person or a person | 26 | | with a disability under subsection (a-5) of Section 17-56 |
| | | 09900HB3529ham001 | - 9 - | LRB099 09357 RLC 32650 a |
|
| 1 | | of the Criminal Code of 2012, to pay restitution to the | 2 | | facility where the elderly person or a person with a | 3 | | disability is a resident of all amounts misappropriated | 4 | | from the elderly person or a person with a disability that | 5 | | are owed to the facility to pay for the care of the elderly | 6 | | person or a person with a disability if the facility is | 7 | | licensed under the Nursing Home Care Act or the ID/DD | 8 | | Community Care Act. | 9 | | The payments shall be made by the defendant to the | 10 | | clerk of the circuit
court
and transmitted by the clerk to | 11 | | the appropriate person or agency as directed by
the court. | 12 | | Except as otherwise provided in subsection (f-1), the
order | 13 | | may require such payments to be made for a period not to
| 14 | | exceed 5 years after sentencing, not including periods of | 15 | | incarceration.
| 16 | | (h) The judge may enter an order of withholding to | 17 | | collect the amount
of restitution owed in accordance with | 18 | | Part 8 of Article XII of the Code of
Civil Procedure.
| 19 | | (i) A sentence of restitution may be modified or | 20 | | revoked by the court
if the offender commits another | 21 | | offense, or the offender fails to make
restitution as | 22 | | ordered by the court, but no sentence to make restitution
| 23 | | shall be revoked unless the court shall find that the | 24 | | offender has had the
financial ability to make restitution, | 25 | | and he has wilfully refused to do
so. When the offender's | 26 | | ability to pay restitution was established at the time
an |
| | | 09900HB3529ham001 | - 10 - | LRB099 09357 RLC 32650 a |
|
| 1 | | order of restitution was entered or modified, or when the | 2 | | offender's ability
to pay was based on the offender's | 3 | | willingness to make restitution as part of a
plea agreement | 4 | | made at the time the order of restitution was entered or
| 5 | | modified, there is a rebuttable presumption that the facts | 6 | | and circumstances
considered by the court at the hearing at | 7 | | which the order of restitution was
entered or modified | 8 | | regarding the offender's ability or willingness to pay
| 9 | | restitution have not materially changed. If the court shall | 10 | | find that the
defendant has failed to make
restitution and | 11 | | that the failure is not wilful, the court may impose an
| 12 | | additional period of time within which to make restitution. | 13 | | The length of
the additional period shall not be more than | 14 | | 2 years. The court shall
retain all of the incidents of the | 15 | | original sentence, including the
authority to modify or | 16 | | enlarge the conditions, and to revoke or further
modify the | 17 | | sentence if the conditions of payment are violated during | 18 | | the
additional period.
| 19 | | (j) The procedure upon the filing of a Petition to | 20 | | Revoke a sentence to
make restitution shall be the same as | 21 | | the procedures set forth in Section
5-6-4 of this Code | 22 | | governing violation, modification, or revocation of
| 23 | | Probation, of Conditional Discharge, or of Supervision.
| 24 | | (k) Nothing contained in this Section shall preclude | 25 | | the right of any
party to proceed in a civil action to | 26 | | recover for any damages incurred due
to the criminal |
| | | 09900HB3529ham001 | - 11 - | LRB099 09357 RLC 32650 a |
|
| 1 | | misconduct of the defendant.
| 2 | | (l) Restitution ordered under this Section shall not be
| 3 | | subject to disbursement by the circuit clerk under Section | 4 | | 27.5 of the
Clerks of Courts Act.
| 5 | | (m) A restitution order under this Section is a | 6 | | judgment lien in favor
of
the victim that:
| 7 | | (1) Attaches to the property of the person subject | 8 | | to the order;
| 9 | | (2) May be perfected in the same manner as provided | 10 | | in Part 3 of Article
9 of the Uniform Commercial Code;
| 11 | | (3) May be enforced to satisfy any payment that is | 12 | | delinquent under the
restitution order by the person in | 13 | | whose favor the order is issued or the
person's | 14 | | assignee; and
| 15 | | (4) Expires in the same manner as a judgment lien | 16 | | created in a civil
proceeding.
| 17 | | When a restitution order is issued under this Section, | 18 | | the issuing court
shall send a certified copy of the order | 19 | | to the clerk of the circuit court
in the county where the | 20 | | charge was filed. Upon receiving the order, the
clerk shall | 21 | | enter and index the order in the circuit court judgment | 22 | | docket.
| 23 | | (n) An order of restitution under this Section does not | 24 | | bar
a civil action for:
| 25 | | (1) Damages that the court did not require the | 26 | | person to pay to the
victim under the restitution order |
| | | 09900HB3529ham001 | - 12 - | LRB099 09357 RLC 32650 a |
|
| 1 | | but arise from an injury or property
damages that is | 2 | | the basis of restitution ordered by the court; and
| 3 | | (2) Other damages suffered by the victim.
| 4 | | The restitution order is not discharged by the
completion | 5 | | of the sentence imposed for the offense.
| 6 | | A restitution order under this Section is not discharged by | 7 | | the
liquidation of a person's estate by a receiver. A | 8 | | restitution order under
this Section may be enforced in the | 9 | | same manner as judgment liens are
enforced under Article XII of | 10 | | the Code of Civil Procedure.
| 11 | | The provisions of Section 2-1303 of the Code of Civil | 12 | | Procedure,
providing for interest on judgments, apply to | 13 | | judgments for restitution entered
under this Section.
