Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

Sec. 5-8A-9. Electronic monitoring by probation departments.

If the supervising authority is a probation department, the Chief Judge of the circuit court may by administrative order establish a program for electronic monitoring of offenders, in which a vendor supplies and monitors the operation of the electronic monitoring device, and collects the fees on behalf of the county.  The program shall include provisions for indigent offenders and the collection of unpaid fees and shall not unduly burden the offender and shall be subject to review by the Chief Judge of the circuit court.

The Chief Judge of the circuit court may  suspend any additional charges or fees for late payment, interest, or damage to any device.
