Illinois Compiled Statutes
Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau 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. 5-2-4. Proceedings after acquittal by reason of insanity.
(a) After a finding or verdict of not guilty by reason of insanity
under Sections 104-25, 115-3, or 115-4 of the Code of Criminal Procedure
of 1963, the defendant shall be ordered to the Department of Human Services for
an evaluation as to
whether he is in need of mental health
services. The order
shall specify whether the evaluation shall be conducted on an inpatient or
outpatient basis. If the evaluation is to be conducted on an inpatient
basis, the defendant shall be placed in a secure setting. With the court order for evaluation shall be sent a copy of the arrest report, criminal charges, arrest record, jail record, any report prepared under Section 115-6 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963, and any statement prepared under Section 6 of the Rights of Crime Victims and Witnesses Act. The clerk of the circuit court shall transmit this information to the Department within 5 days. If the court orders that the evaluation be done on an inpatient basis, the Department shall evaluate the defendant to determine to which secure facility the defendant shall be transported and, within 20 days of the transmittal by the clerk of the circuit court of the placement court order, notify the sheriff of the designated facility. Upon receipt of that notice, the sheriff shall promptly transport the defendant to the designated facility. During
the period of time required to
determine the appropriate placement, the defendant shall
remain in jail. If, within 20 days of the transmittal by the clerk of the circuit court of the placement court order, the Department fails to notify the sheriff of the identity of the facility to which the defendant shall be transported, the sheriff shall contact a designated person within the Department to inquire about when a placement will become available at the designated facility and bed availability at other facilities. If, within
20 days of the transmittal by the clerk of the circuit court of the placement court order, the Department
fails to notify the sheriff of the identity of the facility to
which the defendant shall be transported, the sheriff shall
notify the Department of its intent to transfer the defendant to the nearest secure mental health facility operated by the Department and inquire as to the status of the placement evaluation and availability for admission to the facility operated by the Department by contacting a designated person within the Department. The Department shall respond to the sheriff within 2 business days of the notice and inquiry by the sheriff seeking the transfer and the Department shall provide the sheriff with the status of the placement evaluation, information on bed and placement availability, and an estimated date of admission for the defendant and any changes to that estimated date of admission. If the Department notifies the sheriff during the 2 business day period of a facility operated by the Department with placement availability, the sheriff shall promptly transport the defendant to that facility.
Individualized placement evaluations by the Department of Human Services determine the most appropriate setting for forensic treatment based upon a number of factors including mental health diagnosis, proximity to surviving victims, security need, age, gender, and proximity to family.
The Department shall provide the Court with a report of its evaluation
within 30 days of the date of this order. The Court shall hold a hearing
as provided under the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code to
determine if the individual is:
(a)
in need of mental health services on an inpatient basis; (b) in
need of
mental health services on an outpatient basis; (c) a person not in
need of
mental health services. The court shall afford the victim the opportunity to make a written or oral statement as guaranteed by Article I, Section 8.1 of the Illinois Constitution and Section 6 of the Rights of Crime Victims and Witnesses Act. The court shall allow a victim to make an oral statement if the victim is present in the courtroom and requests to make an oral statement. An oral statement includes the victim or a representative of the victim reading the written statement. The court may allow persons impacted by the crime who are not victims under subsection (a) of Section 3 of the Rights of Crime Victims and Witnesses Act to present an oral or written statement. A victim and any person making an oral statement shall not be put under oath or subject to cross-examination. The court shall consider any statement presented along with all other appropriate factors in determining the sentence of the defendant or disposition of the juvenile. All statements shall become part of the record of the court.
If the defendant is found to be in
need
of mental health services on an inpatient care basis, the Court shall order the
defendant to the Department of Human Services.
The defendant shall be placed in a secure setting. Such
defendants placed in a secure setting shall not be permitted outside the
facility's housing unit unless escorted or accompanied by personnel of the
Department of Human Services or with the prior approval of the Court for
unsupervised
on-grounds privileges as provided
herein.
Any defendant placed in a secure setting pursuant to this Section,
transported to court hearings or other necessary appointments
off facility grounds
by personnel of
the Department of Human Services, shall be
placed in security devices
or otherwise secured during the period of transportation to assure
secure transport of the defendant and the safety of Department
of Human Services personnel and others. These security measures
shall not constitute restraint as defined in the Mental Health and
Developmental Disabilities Code.
If the defendant is found to be in need of mental health services,
but not on an inpatient care basis, the Court shall conditionally release
the defendant, under such conditions as set forth in this Section as will
reasonably assure the defendant's satisfactory progress and participation
in treatment or
rehabilitation and the safety of the defendant, the victim, the victim's family members, and others. If the
Court
finds the person not in need of mental health services, then the Court
shall order the defendant discharged from custody.
(a-1) Definitions. For the purposes of this Section:
(A) (Blank).
(B) "In need of mental health services on an | | inpatient basis" means: a defendant who has been found not guilty by reason of insanity but who, due to mental illness, is reasonably expected to inflict serious physical harm upon himself or another and who would benefit from inpatient care or is in need of inpatient care.
|
|
(C) "In need of mental health services on an
| | outpatient basis" means: a defendant who has been found not guilty by reason of insanity who is not in need of mental health services on an inpatient basis, but is in need of outpatient care, drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation programs, community adjustment programs, individual, group, or family therapy, or chemotherapy.
|
|
(D) "Conditional Release" means: the release from
| | either the custody of the Department of Human Services or the custody of the Court of a person who has been found not guilty by reason of insanity under such conditions as the Court may impose which reasonably assure the defendant's satisfactory progress in treatment or habilitation and the safety of the defendant, the victim, the victim's family, and others. The Court shall consider such terms and conditions which may include, but need not be limited to, outpatient care, alcoholic and drug rehabilitation programs, community adjustment programs, individual, group, family, and chemotherapy, random testing to ensure the defendant's timely and continuous taking of any medicines prescribed to control or manage his or her conduct or mental state, and periodic checks with the legal authorities and/or the Department of Human Services. The Court may order as a condition of conditional release that the defendant not contact the victim of the offense that resulted in the finding or verdict of not guilty by reason of insanity or any other person. The Court may order the Department of Human Services to provide care to any person conditionally released under this Section. The Department may contract with any public or private agency in order to discharge any responsibilities imposed under this Section. The Department shall monitor the provision of services to persons conditionally released under this Section and provide periodic reports to the Court concerning the services and the condition of the defendant. Whenever a person is conditionally released pursuant to this Section, the State's Attorney for the county in which the hearing is held shall designate in writing the name, telephone number, and address of a person employed by him or her who shall be notified in the event that either the reporting agency or the Department decides that the conditional release of the defendant should be revoked or modified pursuant to subsection (i) of this Section. Such conditional release shall be for a period of five years. However, the defendant, the person or facility rendering the treatment, therapy, program or outpatient care, the Department, or the State's Attorney may petition the Court for an extension of the conditional release period for an additional 5 years. Upon receipt of such a petition, the Court shall hold a hearing consistent with the provisions of paragraph (a), this paragraph (a-1), and paragraph (f) of this Section, shall determine whether the defendant should continue to be subject to the terms of conditional release, and shall enter an order either extending the defendant's period of conditional release for an additional 5-year period or discharging the defendant. Additional 5-year periods of conditional release may be ordered following a hearing as provided in this Section. However, in no event shall the defendant's period of conditional release continue beyond the maximum period of commitment ordered by the Court pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. These provisions for extension of conditional release shall only apply to defendants conditionally released on or after August 8, 2003. However, the extension provisions of Public Act 83-1449 apply only to defendants charged with a forcible felony.
|
|
(E) "Facility director" means the chief officer of a
| | mental health or developmental disabilities facility or his or her designee or the supervisor of a program of treatment or habilitation or his or her designee. "Designee" may include a physician, clinical psychologist, social worker, nurse, or clinical professional counselor.
|
|
(b) If the Court finds the defendant in need of mental health services on an
inpatient basis, the
admission, detention, care, treatment or habilitation, treatment plans,
review proceedings, including review of treatment and treatment plans, and
discharge of the defendant after such order shall be under the
Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code, except that the
initial order for admission of a defendant acquitted of a felony by
reason of insanity shall be for an indefinite period of time. Such period
of commitment shall not exceed the maximum
length of time that the defendant would have been required to serve,
less credit for good behavior as provided in Section 5-4-1 of the Unified
Code of Corrections, before becoming eligible for
release had
he been convicted of and received the maximum sentence for the most
serious crime for which he has been acquitted by reason of insanity. The
Court shall determine the maximum period of commitment by an appropriate
order. During this period of time, the defendant shall not be permitted
to be in the community in any manner, including, but not limited to, off-grounds
privileges, with or without escort by personnel of the Department of Human
Services, unsupervised on-grounds privileges,
discharge or conditional or temporary release, except by a plan as provided in
this Section. In no event shall a defendant's continued unauthorized
absence be a basis for discharge. Not more than 30 days after admission
and every 90 days thereafter so long as the initial order
remains in effect, the facility director shall file a treatment plan report
in writing with the court
and forward a copy of the treatment plan report to the clerk of the
court, the State's Attorney, and the defendant's attorney, if the defendant is
represented by counsel,
or to a person authorized by
the defendant under the
Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Confidentiality Act to be sent a
copy of the report. The report shall include an opinion
as to whether the
defendant is currently in need of mental
health services on an inpatient basis or in need of mental health services
on
an outpatient basis. The report shall also summarize the basis for those
findings and provide a current summary of the following items from the
treatment plan: (1) an assessment of the defendant's treatment needs, (2) a
description of the services recommended for treatment, (3) the goals of each
type of element of service, (4) an anticipated timetable for the accomplishment
of the goals, and (5) a designation of the qualified professional responsible
for the implementation of the plan.
The report may also include unsupervised on-grounds
privileges, off-grounds privileges (with or without escort by personnel of the
Department of Human Services), home visits and
participation in work
programs, but only where such privileges have been approved by specific court
order, which order may include such conditions on the defendant as the
Court may deem appropriate and necessary to reasonably assure the defendant's
satisfactory progress in treatment and the safety of the defendant and others.
(c) Every defendant acquitted of a felony by reason of insanity and
subsequently found to be in need of
mental health services shall be represented by counsel in all proceedings under
this Section and under the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code.
(1) The Court shall appoint as counsel the public
| | defender or an attorney licensed by this State.
|
|
(2) Upon filing with the Court of a verified
| | statement of legal services rendered by the private attorney appointed pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection, the Court shall determine a reasonable fee for such services. If the defendant is unable to pay the fee, the Court shall enter an order upon the State to pay the entire fee or such amount as the defendant is unable to pay from funds appropriated by the General Assembly for that purpose.
|
|
(d) When the facility director determines that:
(1) the defendant is no longer in need of mental
| | health services on an inpatient basis; and
|
|
(2) the defendant may be conditionally released
| | because he or she is still in need of mental health services or that the defendant may be discharged as not in need of any mental health services;
|
|
the facility director shall give written notice
to the Court, State's Attorney and defense attorney.
Such notice shall set forth in detail the basis for the recommendation of
the facility director, and specify clearly the recommendations, if any,
of the facility director, concerning conditional release.
Any recommendation for conditional release shall include an evaluation of
the defendant's need for psychotropic medication, what provisions should be
made, if any, to ensure that the defendant will continue to receive
psychotropic medication following discharge, and what provisions should be made
to assure the safety of the defendant and others in the event the defendant is
no longer receiving psychotropic medication.
Within 30 days of
the notification by the facility director, the Court shall set a hearing and
make a finding as to whether the defendant is:
(i) (blank); or
(ii) in need of mental health services in the form of
| |
(iii) in need of mental health services but not
| | subject to inpatient care; or
|
|
(iv) no longer in need of mental health services; or
(v) (blank).
A crime victim shall be allowed to present an oral and written statement. The court shall allow a victim to make an oral statement if the victim is present in the courtroom and requests to make an oral statement. An oral statement includes the victim or a representative of the victim reading the written statement. A victim and any person making an oral statement shall not be put under oath or subject to cross-examination. All statements shall become part of the record of the court.
Upon finding by the Court, the Court shall enter its findings and such
appropriate order as provided in subsections (a) and (a-1) of this Section.
(e) A defendant admitted pursuant to this Section, or any person on
his behalf, may file a petition for treatment plan review
or discharge or conditional release under the
standards of this Section in the Court which rendered the verdict. Upon
receipt of a petition for treatment plan review or discharge or conditional release, the Court shall set a hearing to
be held within 120 days. Thereafter, no new petition
may be filed for 180 days
without leave of the Court.
(f) The Court shall direct that notice of the time and place of the
hearing be served upon the defendant, the facility director, the State's
Attorney, and the defendant's attorney. If requested by either the State or the
defense or if the Court feels it is appropriate, an impartial examination
of the defendant by a psychiatrist or clinical psychologist as defined in
Section 1-103 of the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code who
is not in the employ of the Department of Human Services shall be ordered, and
the report considered at
the time of the hearing.
(g) The findings of the Court shall be established by clear and
convincing evidence. The burden of proof and the burden of going forth
with the evidence rest with the defendant or any person on the defendant's
behalf when a hearing is held to review
a petition filed by or on
behalf of the defendant. The evidence shall be presented in open
Court
with the right of confrontation and cross-examination.
Such evidence may include, but is not limited to:
(1) whether the defendant appreciates the harm caused
| | by the defendant to others and the community by his or her prior conduct that resulted in the finding of not guilty by reason of insanity;
|
|
(2) Whether the person appreciates the criminality of
| | conduct similar to the conduct for which he or she was originally charged in this matter;
|
|
(3) the current state of
the defendant's illness;
(4) what, if any, medications the defendant is taking
| | to control his or her mental illness;
|
|
(5) what, if any, adverse physical side effects the
| | medication has on the defendant;
|
|
(6) the length of time it would take for the
| | defendant's mental health to deteriorate if the defendant stopped taking prescribed medication;
|
|
(7) the defendant's history or potential for alcohol
| |
(8) the defendant's past criminal history;
(9) any specialized physical or medical needs of the
| |
(10) any family participation or involvement expected
| | upon release and what is the willingness and ability of the family to participate or be involved;
|
|
(11) the defendant's potential to be a danger to
| | himself, herself, or others;
|
|
(11.5) a written or oral statement made by the
| | (12) any other factor or factors the Court deems
| |
(h) Before the court orders that the defendant be discharged or
conditionally released, it shall order the facility director to establish a
discharge plan that includes a plan for the defendant's shelter, support, and
medication. If appropriate, the court shall order that the facility director
establish a program to train the defendant in self-medication under standards
established by the Department of Human Services.
If the Court finds, consistent with the provisions of this Section,
that the defendant is no longer in need of mental
health services it shall order the facility director to discharge the
defendant. If the Court finds, consistent with the provisions of this
Section, that the defendant is in need of mental
health services, and no longer in need of inpatient care, it shall order
the facility director to release the defendant under such conditions as the
Court deems appropriate and as provided by this Section. Such conditional
release shall be imposed for a period of 5 years as provided in
paragraph
(D) of subsection (a-1) and shall be
subject
to later modification by the Court as provided by this Section. If the
Court finds consistent with the provisions in this Section that the
defendant is in
need of mental health services on an inpatient basis, it shall order the
facility director not to discharge or release the defendant in accordance
with paragraph (b) of this Section.
(i) If within the period of the defendant's conditional release
the State's Attorney determines that the defendant has not fulfilled the
conditions of his or her release, the State's Attorney may petition the
Court
to
revoke or modify the conditional release of the defendant. Upon the filing of
such petition the defendant may be remanded to the custody of the Department,
or to any other mental health facility designated by the Department, pending
the resolution of the petition. Nothing in this Section shall prevent the
emergency admission of a defendant pursuant to Article VI of Chapter III of the
Mental Health
and Developmental Disabilities Code or the voluntary admission of the defendant
pursuant to Article IV of Chapter III of the Mental Health and Developmental
Disabilities
Code. If
the Court determines, after hearing evidence, that the defendant has
not fulfilled the conditions of release, the Court shall order a hearing
to be held consistent with the provisions of paragraph (f) and (g) of this
Section. At such hearing, if the Court finds that the defendant is in need of mental health services on an inpatient
basis, it shall enter an order remanding him or her to the Department of
Human Services or other
facility. If the defendant is remanded to the Department of Human Services, he
or she shall be placed in
a secure setting unless the Court
determines that there are compelling reasons that such placement is not
necessary. If the
Court finds that the defendant continues to be in need of mental health
services but not on an inpatient basis, it may modify the conditions of
the original release in order to reasonably assure the defendant's satisfactory
progress in treatment and his or her safety and the safety of others in
accordance with the standards established in paragraph (D) of subsection (a-1). Nothing in
this Section shall limit a Court's contempt powers or any other powers of a
Court.
(j) An order of admission under this Section does not affect the
remedy of habeas corpus.
(k) In the event of a conflict between this Section and the Mental Health
and Developmental Disabilities Code or the Mental Health and Developmental
Disabilities Confidentiality Act, the provisions of this Section shall govern.
(l) Public Act 90-593 shall apply to all persons who have been found
not guilty by reason of insanity and who are presently committed to the
Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities (now the
Department of Human Services).
(m)
The Clerk of the Court shall transmit a certified copy of the order of
discharge or conditional release to the Department of Human Services, to the sheriff of the county from which the defendant was admitted, to the Illinois State Police, to
the proper law enforcement agency for the municipality
where the offense took
place, and to the sheriff of the county into which the defendant is
conditionally discharged. The Illinois State Police shall
maintain a
centralized record of discharged or conditionally released defendants while
they are under court supervision for access and use of appropriate law
enforcement agencies.
(n) The provisions in this Section which allow a crime victim to make a written and oral statement do not apply if the defendant was under 18 years of age at the time the offense was committed.
(o) If any provision of this Section or its application to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the invalidity of that provision does not affect any other provision or application of this Section that can be given effect without the invalid provision or application.

Sec. 5-3-1. Presentence Investigation. A defendant shall not
be sentenced for a felony before a written presentence report
of investigation is presented to and considered by the court.
However, other than for felony sex offenders being considered for probation, the court need not order a presentence report
of
investigation where both parties agree to the imposition of
a specific sentence, provided there is a finding made for the

including any previous sentence to a term of probation, periodic
imprisonment, conditional discharge, or imprisonment.
The court may order a presentence investigation of any defendant.
