20        the  order of suspension.  If the Secretary of State does

22        application,   to   relieve   undue   hardship,  issue  a
23        restricted  driving  permit  granting  the  privilege  of
24        driving  a  motor  vehicle   between   the   petitioner's
25        residence  and petitioner's place of employment or within

28        of the petitioner's family, to receive necessary  medical
29        care   and  if  the  professional  evaluation  indicates,
30        provide   transportation   for   alcohol   remedial    or
31        rehabilitative  activity, or for the petitioner to attend
32        classes, as  a  student,  in  an  accredited  educational
33        institution;  if  the  petitioner  is able to demonstrate
34        that no alternative means of transportation is reasonably
 
                            -9-                LRB9201921DHmb

 2        safety or welfare. In each case the Secretary may issue a
 3        restricted   driving   permit   for   a   period   deemed
 4        appropriate, except that all permits shall expire  within
 5        one year from the date of issuance.  A restricted driving
 6        permit  issued  under  this  Section  shall be subject to
 7        cancellation, revocation, and suspension by the Secretary
 8        of State in like manner and for like cause as a  driver's
 9        license issued under this Code may be cancelled, revoked,
10        or  suspended;  except that a conviction upon one or more
11        offenses  against  laws  or  ordinances  regulating   the
12        movement  of traffic shall be deemed sufficient cause for
13        the  revocation,  suspension,  or   cancellation   of   a
14        restricted driving permit. The Secretary of State may, as
15        a  condition  to  the  issuance  of  a restricted driving
16        permit,  require  the  applicant  to  participate  in   a
17        designated driver remedial or rehabilitative program. The
18        Secretary  of  State is authorized to cancel a restricted
19        driving permit if the permit holder does not successfully
20        complete the program.
21        (c-5)  The Secretary of State may, as a condition of  the
22    reissuance  of  a  driver's license or permit to an applicant

 9    court shall then impose sentence  upon  the  defendant.   The
10    trial  court  may  impose  any sentence which could have been
11    imposed at the original trial subject to Section 5-5-4 of the
12    Unified Code of Corrections.
13        (e)  In  cases  where  prosecution  for  criminal  sexual
14    assault or aggravated criminal  sexual  abuse  under  Section
15    12-13  or  12-16  of  the  Criminal  Code  of 1961 results in
16    conviction of a defendant who was  a  family  member  of  the
17    victim  at  the  time  of  the commission of the offense, the
18    court shall consider the safety and welfare of the victim and
19    may impose a sentence of probation only where:
20             (1)  the  court  finds  (A)  or  (B)  or  both   are
21        appropriate:
22                  (A)  the  defendant  is  willing  to  undergo a
23             court approved  counseling  program  for  a  minimum
24             duration of 2 years; or
25                  (B)  the defendant is willing to participate in
26             a  court  approved plan including but not limited to
27             the defendant's:
28                       (i)  removal from the household;
29                       (ii)  restricted contact with the victim;
30                       (iii)  continued financial support of  the

32                       (iv)  restitution  for  harm  done  to the
33                  victim; and
34                       (v)  compliance with  any  other  measures

 1                  that the court may deem appropriate; and
 2             (2)  the  court  orders the defendant to pay for the
 3        victim's counseling services,  to  the  extent  that  the
 4        court finds, after considering the defendant's income and
 5        assets,  that  the  defendant  is  financially capable of
 6        paying for such services, if  the  victim  was  under  18
 7        years  of  age  at the time the offense was committed and
 8        requires counseling as a result of the offense.
 9        Probation may be revoked or modified pursuant to  Section
10    5-6-4;  except where the court determines at the hearing that
11    the defendant violated a condition of his  or  her  probation
12    restricting  contact  with the victim or other family members
13    or commits another offense with the victim  or  other  family
14    members, the court shall revoke the defendant's probation and
15    impose a term of imprisonment.
16        For  the  purposes  of  this Section, "family member" and
17    "victim" shall have the meanings ascribed to them in  Section
18    12-12 of the Criminal Code of 1961.
19        (f)  This  Article  shall  not  deprive  a court in other
20    proceedings to order a forfeiture of property, to suspend  or

25    11-18.1, 11-19,  11-19.1,  11-19.2,  12-13,  12-14,  12-14.1,
26    12-15  or  12-16  of the Criminal Code of 1961, the defendant
27    shall  undergo  medical  testing  to  determine  whether  the
28    defendant has any sexually transmissible disease, including a
29    test for infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or
30    any   other   identified   causative   agent   of    acquired
31    immunodeficiency  syndrome  (AIDS).   Any  such  medical test
32    shall be performed only  by  appropriately  licensed  medical
33    practitioners  and  may  include  an  analysis  of any bodily
34    fluids as well as an examination of the  defendant's  person.
 
                            -20-               LRB9201921DHmb
 1    Except as otherwise provided by law, the results of such test
 2    shall  be kept strictly confidential by all medical personnel
 3    involved in the testing and must be personally delivered in a
 4    sealed envelope to the  judge  of  the  court  in  which  the
 5    conviction  was entered for the judge's inspection in camera.
 6    Acting in accordance with the best interests  of  the  victim
 7    and  the  public,  the  judge  shall  have  the discretion to
 8    determine to whom, if anyone, the results of the testing  may
 9    be revealed. The court shall notify the defendant of the test
10    results.  The court shall also notify the victim if requested
11    by  the  victim, and if the victim is under the age of 15 and
12    if requested by the victim's parents or legal  guardian,  the
13    court  shall notify the victim's parents or legal guardian of
14    the test results.  The court shall provide information on the
15    availability of HIV testing and counseling at  Department  of
16    Public  Health  facilities to all parties to whom the results
17    of the testing are revealed  and  shall  direct  the  State's
18    Attorney  to  provide  the  information  to  the  victim when
19    possible. A State's Attorney may petition the court to obtain
20    the results of any HIV test administered under this  Section,
21    and  the  court  shall  grant  the  disclosure if the State's
22    Attorney shows it is relevant in order to prosecute a  charge
23    of  criminal transmission of HIV under Section 12-16.2 of the
24    Criminal Code of 1961 against the defendant.  The court shall
25    order that the cost of any such test shall  be  paid  by  the
26    county  and  may  be  taxed  as  costs  against the convicted
27    defendant.

29    communicable   disease,   as   determined   by  the  Illinois
30    Department of Public Health  including  but  not  limited  to
31    tuberculosis,  the  results  of  the test shall be personally
32    delivered by the warden or his or her designee  in  a  sealed
33    envelope  to  the judge of the court in which the inmate must
34    appear for the judge's inspection in camera if  requested  by

 1    the  judge.   Acting in accordance with the best interests of
 2    those in the courtroom, the judge shall have  the  discretion
 3    to  determine  what  if  any  precautions need to be taken to
 4    prevent transmission of the disease in the courtroom.
 5        (h)  Whenever a defendant  is  convicted  of  an  offense
 6    under  Section  1 or 2 of the Hypodermic Syringes and Needles
 7    Act, the defendant shall undergo medical testing to determine
 8    whether   the   defendant   has   been   exposed   to   human
 9    immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV)  or   any   other   identified
10    causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
11    Except as otherwise provided by law, the results of such test
12    shall  be kept strictly confidential by all medical personnel
13    involved in the testing and must be personally delivered in a
14    sealed envelope to the  judge  of  the  court  in  which  the
15    conviction  was entered for the judge's inspection in camera.
16    Acting in accordance with the best interests of  the  public,
17    the  judge shall have the discretion to determine to whom, if
18    anyone, the results of the testing may be revealed. The court
19    shall notify the defendant of  a  positive  test  showing  an
20    infection  with  the  human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The
21    court shall provide information on the  availability  of  HIV
22    testing   and  counseling  at  Department  of  Public  Health
23    facilities to all parties to whom the results of the  testing
24    are revealed and shall direct the State's Attorney to provide
25    the  information  to  the  victim  when  possible.  A State's
26    Attorney may petition the court to obtain the results of  any
27    HIV  test  administered  under  this   Section, and the court
28    shall grant the disclosure if the State's Attorney  shows  it
29    is  relevant  in  order  to  prosecute  a  charge of criminal
30    transmission of HIV under Section  12-16.2  of  the  Criminal
31    Code  of  1961  against  the defendant. The court shall order
32    that the cost of any such test shall be paid  by  the  county
33    and may be taxed as costs against the convicted defendant.
34        (i)  All  fines  and penalties imposed under this Section
 
                            -22-               LRB9201921DHmb
 1    for any violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois

 4    similar  provision  of  a local ordinance, shall be collected
 5    and disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under  Section
 6    27.5 of the Clerks of Courts Act.
 7        (j)  In  cases  when  prosecution  for  any  violation of
 8    Section 11-6,  11-8,  11-9,  11-11,  11-14,  11-15,  11-15.1,

11    12-16  of  the  Criminal  Code  of 1961, any violation of the
12    Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or any violation  of  the
13    Cannabis  Control Act results in conviction, a disposition of
14    court supervision, or an order  of  probation  granted  under
15    Section  10 of the Cannabis Control Act or Section 410 of the
16    Illinois Controlled Substance Act of a defendant,  the  court
17    shall  determine  whether  the  defendant  is  employed  by a
18    facility or center as defined under the  Child  Care  Act  of
19    1969,  a public or private elementary or secondary school, or
20    otherwise works with children under 18  years  of  age  on  a
21    daily  basis.   When  a  defendant  is so employed, the court
22    shall order the Clerk of the Court to  send  a  copy  of  the
23    judgment  of  conviction or order of supervision or probation
24    to  the  defendant's  employer  by  certified  mail.  If  the
25    employer of the defendant is a school, the Clerk of the Court
26    shall direct the  mailing  of  a  copy  of  the  judgment  of
27    conviction  or  order  of  supervision  or  probation  to the
28    appropriate regional superintendent of schools.  The regional
29    superintendent of schools shall notify  the  State  Board  of
30    Education of any notification under this subsection.
31        (j-5)  A  defendant  at  least  17  years  of  age who is
32    convicted of  a  felony  and  who  has  not  been  previously
33    convicted  of a misdemeanor or felony and who is sentenced to
34    a  term  of  imprisonment  in  the  Illinois  Department   of
 
                            -23-               LRB9201921DHmb
 1    Corrections  shall  as  a condition of his or her sentence be
 2    required by the court to attend educational courses  designed
 3    to  prepare  the  defendant  for a high school diploma and to
 4    work toward a high school diploma or to work  toward  passing
 5    the high school level Test of General Educational Development
 6    (GED)  or  to  work  toward  completing a vocational training
 7    program offered by  the  Department  of  Corrections.   If  a
 8    defendant fails to complete the educational training required
 9    by  his or her sentence during the term of incarceration, the
10    Prisoner Review Board shall,  as  a  condition  of  mandatory
11    supervised  release, require the defendant, at his or her own
12    expense, to pursue a course of study  toward  a  high  school
13    diploma  or  passage  of  the  GED test.  The Prisoner Review
14    Board shall revoke the  mandatory  supervised  release  of  a
15    defendant  who  wilfully fails to comply with this subsection
16    (j-5) upon his or her release from  confinement  in  a  penal
17    institution  while  serving  a  mandatory  supervised release
18    term; however, the inability of the defendant after making  a
19    good  faith  effort  to  obtain  financial aid or pay for the
20    educational training shall not be deemed a wilful failure  to
21    comply.    The  Prisoner  Review  Board  shall  recommit  the
22    defendant whose mandatory supervised release  term  has  been
23    revoked  under  this  subsection (j-5) as provided in Section
24    3-3-9.  This subsection (j-5) does not apply to  a  defendant
25    who  has a high school diploma or has successfully passed the
26    GED test. This subsection (j-5) does not apply to a defendant
27    who is determined by the court to be developmentally disabled
28    or otherwise mentally incapable of completing the educational
29    or vocational program.
30        (k)  A court may not impose a sentence or disposition for
31    a felony or misdemeanor that requires  the  defendant  to  be
32    implanted  or  injected  with  or  to  use  any form of birth
33    control.
34        (l) (A)  Except  as  provided   in   paragraph   (C)   of
 
                            -24-               LRB9201921DHmb
 1        subsection  (l), whenever a defendant, who is an alien as
 2        defined  by  the  Immigration  and  Nationality  Act,  is
 3        convicted of any felony or misdemeanor offense, the court
 4        after sentencing the defendant may, upon  motion  of  the
 5        State's  Attorney,  hold  sentence in abeyance and remand
 6        the defendant to the custody of the Attorney  General  of
 7        the  United  States  or his or her designated agent to be
 8        deported when:
 9                  (1)  a final  order  of  deportation  has  been
10             issued against the defendant pursuant to proceedings
11             under the Immigration and Nationality Act, and
12                  (2)  the deportation of the defendant would not
13             deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct
14             and  would  not  be  inconsistent  with  the ends of
15             justice.
16             Otherwise,  the  defendant  shall  be  sentenced  as
17        provided in this Chapter V.
18             (B)  If the defendant has already been sentenced for
19        a felony or misdemeanor offense, or has  been  placed  on
20        probation under Section 10 of the Cannabis Control Act or
21        Section  410  of  the Illinois Controlled Substances Act,
22        the court may, upon motion of  the  State's  Attorney  to
23        suspend the sentence imposed, commit the defendant to the
24        custody  of  the Attorney General of the United States or
25        his or her designated agent when:
26                  (1)  a final  order  of  deportation  has  been
27             issued against the defendant pursuant to proceedings
28             under the Immigration and Nationality Act, and
29                  (2)  the deportation of the defendant would not
30             deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct
31             and  would  not  be  inconsistent  with  the ends of
32             justice.
33             (C)  This subsection (l) does not apply to offenders
34        who are subject to the provisions  of  paragraph  (2)  of
 
                            -25-               LRB9201921DHmb
 1        subsection (a) of Section 3-6-3.
 2             (D)  Upon  motion  of  the  State's  Attorney,  if a
 3        defendant sentenced under this  Section  returns  to  the
 4        jurisdiction of the United States, the defendant shall be
 5        recommitted to the custody of the county from which he or
 6        she  was  sentenced.  Thereafter,  the defendant shall be
 7        brought before the sentencing court, which may impose any
 8        sentence that was available under Section  5-5-3  at  the
 9        time  of  initial sentencing.  In addition, the defendant
10        shall not be eligible for additional good conduct  credit
11        for meritorious service as provided under Section 3-6-6.
12        (m)  A   person   convicted  of  criminal  defacement  of
13    property under Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code  of  1961,
14    in  which  the  property damage exceeds $300 and the property
15    damaged is a school building, shall  be  ordered  to  perform
16    community  service  that  may  include  cleanup,  removal, or
17    painting over the defacement.
