 2        Be it enacted by the People of  the  State  of  Illinois,
 3    represented in the General Assembly:

 4        Section  5.  The Juvenile Court Act of 1987 is amended by
 5    changing Sections 5-710 and 5-715 as follows:

 6        (705 ILCS 405/5-710)

 8        (1)  The following kinds of sentencing orders may be made
 9    in respect of wards of the court:
10             (a)  Except  as  provided  in Sections 5-805, 5-810,
11        5-815, a minor who is found guilty  under  Section  5-620
12        may be:
13                  (i)  put  on probation or conditional discharge
14             and released to his  or  her  parents,  guardian  or
15             legal  custodian,  provided,  however, that any such
16             minor who is not  committed  to  the  Department  of
17             Corrections, Juvenile Division under this subsection
18             and  who  is found to be a delinquent for an offense
19             which is first degree murder, a Class X felony, or a
20             forcible felony shall be placed on probation;
21                  (ii)  placed in accordance with Section  5-740,
22             with  or  without  also  being  put  on probation or
23             conditional discharge;
24                  (iii)  required to undergo  a  substance  abuse
25             assessment  conducted  by  a  licensed  provider and
26             participate in the indicated clinical level of care;
27                  (iv)  placed  in  the   guardianship   of   the
28             Department of Children and Family Services, but only
29             if the delinquent minor is under 13 years of age;
30                  (v)  placed  in  detention  for a period not to
31             exceed 30 days, either as  the  exclusive  order  of
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -2-                LRB9213263ACsb
 1             disposition  or,  where  appropriate, in conjunction
 2             with any other order  of  disposition  issued  under
 3             this  paragraph,  provided  that  any such detention
 4             shall be in a juvenile detention home and the  minor
 5             so  detained  shall  be  10  years  of age or older.
 6             However, the 30-day limitation may  be  extended  by
 7             further  order of the court for a minor under age 13
 8             committed to the Department of Children  and  Family
 9             Services  if  the  court  finds  that the minor is a
10             danger to himself or others.   The  minor  shall  be
11             given  credit  on  the sentencing order of detention
12             for time spent in detention  under  Sections  5-501,
13             5-601,  5-710,  or 5-720 of this Article as a result
14             of the offense for which the  sentencing  order  was
15             imposed.  The court may grant credit on a sentencing
16             order of detention  entered  under  a  violation  of
17             probation  or  violation  of  conditional  discharge
18             under  Section  5-720 of this Article for time spent
19             in detention  before  the  filing  of  the  petition
20             alleging  the  violation.   A  minor  shall  not  be
21             deprived  of  credit  for  time  spent  in detention
22             before the filing of a  violation  of  probation  or
23             conditional  discharge  alleging the same or related
24             act or acts;
25                  (vi)  ordered    partially    or     completely
26             emancipated in accordance with the provisions of the
27             Emancipation of Mature Minors Act;
28                  (vii)  subject  to  having  his or her driver's
29             license or driving  privileges  suspended  for  such
30             time as determined by the court but only until he or
31             she attains 18 years of age;
32                  (viii)  put   on   probation   or   conditional
33             discharge  and  placed  in  detention  under Section
34             3-6039 of the Counties Code  for  a  period  not  to
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -3-                LRB9213263ACsb
 1             exceed  the period of incarceration permitted by law
 2             for adults found  guilty  of  the  same  offense  or
 3             offenses   for   which  the  minor  was  adjudicated
 4             delinquent, and in any event  no  longer  than  upon
 5             attainment   of  age  21;  this  subdivision  (viii)
 6             notwithstanding any contrary provision of  the  law;
 7             or
 8                  (ix)  ordered  to  undergo  a  medical or other
 9             procedure to have a tattoo symbolizing allegiance to
10             a street gang removed from his or her body.
11             (b)  A minor found to be guilty may be committed  to
12        the  Department  of Corrections, Juvenile Division, under
13        Section 5-750 if the minor is 13 years of age  or  older,
14        provided   that  the  commitment  to  the  Department  of
15        Corrections, Juvenile Division, shall be made only  if  a
16        term  of  incarceration  is  permitted  by law for adults
17        found guilty of the  offense  for  which  the  minor  was
18        adjudicated delinquent.  The time during which a minor is
19        in  custody  before  being released upon the request of a
20        parent, guardian or legal custodian shall  be  considered
21        as time spent in detention.
22             (c)  When  a  minor  is  found  to  be guilty for an
23        offense which is a violation of the  Illinois  Controlled
24        Substances  Act  or  the Cannabis Control Act  and made a
25        ward of the court, the  court  may  enter  a  disposition
26        order   requiring   the   minor  to  undergo  assessment,
27        counseling or treatment  in  a  substance  abuse  program
28        approved by the Department of Human Services.
29        (2)  Any  sentencing  order  other than commitment to the
30    Department of Corrections, Juvenile Division, may provide for
31    protective supervision under Section 5-725 and may include an
32    order of protection under Section 5-730.
33        (3)  Unless the sentencing order expressly  so  provides,
34    it  does  not  operate  to  close  proceedings on the pending
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -4-                LRB9213263ACsb
 1    petition, but is subject to modification until final  closing
 2    and discharge of the proceedings under Section 5-750.
 3        (4)  In  addition  to  any  other sentence, the court may
 4    order any minor found to be delinquent to  make  restitution,
 5    in  monetary  or  non-monetary  form,  under  the  terms  and
 6    conditions   of   Section   5-5-6  of  the  Unified  Code  of
 7    Corrections, except that the "presentencing hearing" referred
 8    to in that  Section  shall  be  the  sentencing  hearing  for
 9    purposes  of  this  Section.   The  parent, guardian or legal
10    custodian of the minor may be ordered by  the  court  to  pay
11    some  or  all  of  the  restitution  on  the  minor's behalf,
12    pursuant to the Parental Responsibility  Law.    The  State's
13    Attorney  is  authorized  to  act  on behalf of any victim in
14    seeking restitution in proceedings under this Section, up  to
15    the  maximum  amount  allowed  in  Section  5 of the Parental
16    Responsibility Law.
17        (5)  Any sentencing order where the minor is committed or
18    placed in accordance with Section 5-740 shall provide for the
19    parents or guardian of the estate of the minor to pay to  the
20    legal  custodian  or guardian of the person of the minor such
21    sums as are determined by the custodian or  guardian  of  the
22    person  of the minor as necessary for the minor's needs.  The
23    payments may not exceed the maximum amounts provided  for  by
24    Section 9.1 of the Children and Family Services Act.
25        (6)  Whenever  the sentencing order requires the minor to
26    attend school or participate in a program  of  training,  the
27    truant  officer or designated school official shall regularly
28    report to the court if the minor is  a  chronic  or  habitual
29    truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code.
30        (7)  In no event shall a guilty minor be committed to the
31    Department  of Corrections, Juvenile Division for a period of
32    time in excess of that period for which  an  adult  could  be
33    committed for the same act.
34        (8)  A  minor found to be guilty for reasons that include
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -5-                LRB9213263ACsb
 1    a violation of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal  Code  of  1961
 2    shall  be  ordered  to perform community service for not less
 3    than 30 and not more than 120 hours, if community service  is
 4    available  in  the jurisdiction.  The community service shall
 5    include, but need not be limited to, the cleanup  and  repair
 6    of  the  damage  that  was caused by the violation or similar
 7    damage to property located in the municipality or  county  in
 8    which  the  violation occurred.  The order may be in addition
 9    to any other order authorized by this Section.
10        (8.5)  A minor  found  to  be  guilty  for  reasons  that
11    include  a  violation  of Section 3.02 or Section 3.03 of the
12    Humane Care for Animals Act or paragraph  (d)  of  subsection
13    (1)  of  Section  21-1  of the Criminal Code of 1961 shall be
14    ordered to undergo medical or psychiatric treatment  rendered
15    by  a  psychiatrist  or psychological treatment rendered by a
16    clinical psychologist. The order may be in  addition  to  any
17    other order authorized by this Section.
18        (8.10)  Any  minor found to be guilty of a sex offense as
19    defined in the Sex Offender Management  Board  Act  shall  be
20    required  as  part of the social investigation to submit to a
21    sex offender evaluation.  The evaluation shall  be  performed
22    in  conformance  with  the  standards developed under the Sex
23    Offender Management Board Act.
24        (9)  In addition to any other sentencing order, the court
25    shall order any minor found to be guilty  for  an  act  which
26    would  constitute,  predatory  criminal  sexual  assault of a
27    child, aggravated criminal sexual  assault,  criminal  sexual
28    assault, aggravated criminal sexual abuse, or criminal sexual
29    abuse  if committed by an adult to undergo medical testing to
30    determine   whether   the   defendant   has   any    sexually
31    transmissible  disease  including  a  test for infection with
32    human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or  any  other  identified
33    causative   agency   of  acquired  immunodeficiency  syndrome
34    (AIDS).   Any  medical  test  shall  be  performed  only   by
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -6-                LRB9213263ACsb
 1    appropriately  licensed medical practitioners and may include
 2    an analysis of any bodily fluids as well as an examination of
 3    the minor's person. Except as otherwise provided by law,  the
 4    results  of  the  test shall be kept strictly confidential by
 5    all medical personnel involved in the  testing  and  must  be
 6    personally delivered in a sealed envelope to the judge of the
 7    court  in  which  the  sentencing  order  was entered for the
 8    judge's inspection in camera.  Acting in accordance with  the
 9    best  interests of the victim and the public, the judge shall
10    have the discretion to determine to whom the results  of  the
11    testing may be revealed.  The court shall notify the minor of
12    the  results  of  the  test  for  infection  with  the  human
13    immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV).   The court shall also notify
14    the victim if requested by the victim, and if the  victim  is
15    under  the age of 15 and if requested by the victim's parents
16    or legal  guardian,  the  court  shall  notify  the  victim's
17    parents or the legal guardian, of the results of the test for
18    infection  with  the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).  The
19    court shall provide information on the  availability  of  HIV
20    testing  and  counseling  at  the Department of Public Health
21    facilities to all parties to whom the results of the  testing
22    are  revealed.   The  court  shall order that the cost of any
23    test shall be paid by the county and may be  taxed  as  costs
24    against the minor.
25        (10)  When  a  court finds a minor to be guilty the court
26    shall, before entering a sentencing order under this Section,
27    make a finding whether the offense committed either:  (a) was
28    related to or in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
29    organized gang or was motivated by the minor's membership  in
30    or  allegiance  to  an  organized  gang,  or  (b)  involved a
31    violation of subsection (a) of Section 12-7.1 of the Criminal
32    Code of 1961, a violation of any Section of Article 24 of the
33    Criminal Code of 1961,  or a violation of  any  statute  that
34    involved  the  wrongful  use  of  a  firearm.   If  the court
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -7-                LRB9213263ACsb
 1    determines the question in the  affirmative,  and  the  court
 2    does  not  commit the minor to the Department of Corrections,
 3    Juvenile Division, the court shall order the minor to perform
 4    community service for not less than 30 hours  nor  more  than
 5    120  hours,  provided  that community service is available in
 6    the jurisdiction and is funded and  approved  by  the  county
 7    board  of  the  county  where the offense was committed.  The
 8    community service shall include, but need not be limited  to,
 9    the cleanup and repair of any damage caused by a violation of
10    Section  21-1.3  of  the  Criminal  Code  of 1961 and similar
11    damage to property located in the municipality or  county  in
12    which  the violation occurred.  When possible and reasonable,
13    the community service  shall  be  performed  in  the  minor's
14    neighborhood.   This  order shall be in addition to any other
15    order authorized by this Section except for an order to place
16    the minor in the custody of the  Department  of  Corrections,
17    Juvenile   Division.   For  the  purposes  of  this  Section,
18    "organized gang" has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 10
19    of the Illinois Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus Prevention Act.

28    forcible  felony.  The juvenile court may terminate probation
29    or conditional discharge and discharge the minor at any  time
30    if  warranted  by  the  conduct  of the minor and the ends of
31    justice;  provided, however, that the period of probation for

 1        indirectly, with certain specified persons or  particular
 2        types of persons, including but not limited to members of
 3        street gangs and drug users or dealers;
 4             (s-5)  undergo  a medical or other procedure to have
 5        a tattoo symbolizing allegiance to a street gang  removed
 6        from his or her body;
 7             (t)  refrain  from  having  in  his  or her body the
 8        presence of any illicit drug prohibited by  the  Cannabis
 9        Control  Act  or  the Illinois Controlled Substances Act,
10        unless  prescribed  by  a  physician,  and  shall  submit
11        samples of his or her blood or urine or both for tests to
12        determine the presence of any illicit drug; or
13             (u)  comply with other conditions as may be  ordered
14        by the court.
15        (3)  The  court  may  as  a  condition of probation or of
16    conditional discharge require that a minor  found  guilty  on
17    any  alcohol,  cannabis,  or  controlled substance violation,
18    refrain from acquiring a driver's license during  the  period
19    of  probation  or  conditional discharge.  If the minor is in
20    possession of a permit or license, the court may require that
21    the minor refrain from driving or operating any motor vehicle
22    during the period  of  probation  or  conditional  discharge,
23    except  as  may  be  necessary  in  the course of the minor's
24    lawful employment.
25        (3.5)  The court shall, as a condition of probation or of
26    conditional discharge, require  that  a  minor  found  to  be
27    guilty  and  placed  on  probation for reasons that include a
28    violation of Section 3.02 or Section 3.03 of the Humane  Care
29    for Animals Act or paragraph (d) of subsection (1) of Section
30    21-1  of  the  Criminal  Code  of  1961  undergo  medical  or
31    psychiatric   treatment   rendered   by   a  psychiatrist  or
32    psychological treatment rendered by a clinical  psychologist.
33    The condition may be in addition to any other condition.
34        (3.10)  The  court  shall  order  that  a minor placed on
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -11-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1    probation or conditional  discharge  for  a  sex  offense  as
 2    defined  in the Sex Offender Management Board Act undergo and
 3    successfully complete sex offender treatment.  The  treatment
 4    shall  be  in  conformance with the standards developed under
 5    the Sex Offender Management Board Act and  shall  be  at  the
 6    expense  of  the  person  evaluated  based upon that person's
 7    ability to pay for the treatment.
 8        (4)  A minor on probation or conditional discharge  shall
 9    be  given  a  certificate  setting  forth the conditions upon
10    which he or she is being released.
11        (5)  The court  shall  impose  upon  a  minor  placed  on
12    probation  or  conditional  discharge,  as a condition of the
13    probation or conditional discharge, a fee  of  $25  for  each
14    month  of  probation  or  conditional  discharge  supervision
15    ordered  by the court, unless after determining the inability
16    of the minor placed on probation or conditional discharge  to
17    pay  the  fee, the court assesses a lesser amount.  The court
18    may not impose the fee on a minor who is made a ward  of  the
19    State  under  this  Act while the minor is in placement.  The
20    fee shall be imposed  only  upon  a  minor  who  is  actively
21    supervised  by  the  probation and court services department.
22    The court may order the parent, guardian, or legal  custodian
23    of  the  minor  to  pay some or all of the fee on the minor's
24    behalf.
25        (6)  The General Assembly finds that in order to  protect
26    the   public,   the   juvenile  justice  system  must  compel
27    compliance with the conditions of probation by responding  to
28    violations  with  swift,  certain,  and  fair punishments and
29    intermediate sanctions.  The  Chief  Judge  of  each  circuit
30    shall  adopt  a  system of structured, intermediate sanctions
31    for violations of the terms and conditions of a  sentence  of
32    supervision,  probation  or conditional discharge, under this
33    Act.
34        The court shall provide as a condition of  a  disposition
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -12-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1    of probation, conditional discharge, or supervision, that the
 2    probation  agency  may  invoke  any sanction from the list of
 3    intermediate sanctions adopted by  the  chief  judge  of  the
 4    circuit  court  for violations of the terms and conditions of
 5    the  sentence  of  probation,   conditional   discharge,   or
 6    supervision,  subject  to  the provisions of Section 5-720 of
 7    this Act.

25    ward in any facility in  the  Department  of  Corrections  or
26    portion  thereof  set  aside  for  the  care and treatment of
27    sexually dangerous persons. The Department of Corrections may
28    also request another state Department or  Agency  to  examine
29    such patient and upon such request, such Department or Agency

26        (a)  Any  person  who  is the subject of a petition filed

33    such hearing.  The court may designate additional persons  to
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -15-               LRB9213263ACsb

 6             (1)  To be present and to be represented by counsel.

 9             (2)  Remain silent.

13    person's  attorney,  the  Attorney  General  or  the  State's
14    Attorney  may  request  that a trial under Section 35 of this
15    Act be to a jury.  A verdict of a jury under this Act is  not
16    valid unless it is unanimous.
17        (e)  Whenever  the  person  who  is  the  subject  of the
18    petition is required to submit to an examination  under  this
19    Act,  he or she may retain experts or professional persons to
20    perform an examination.  The  respondent's  chosen  evaluator
21    must  be  certified  by the Sex Offender Management Board and
22    the evaluation must be  conducted  in  conformance  with  the
23    standards  developed  under the Sex Offender Management Board

 5        Sec. 30.  Detention; probable cause hearing; transfer for
 6    examination.
 7        (a)  Upon  the  filing  of a petition under Section 15 of
 8    this Act, the court shall review the  petition  to  determine
 9    whether  to issue an order for detention of the person who is
10    the subject of the petition.  The person  shall  be  detained
11    only if there is cause to believe that the person is eligible
12    for  commitment  under  subsection  (f) of Section 35 of this
13    Act.  A person detained under this Section shall be held in a
14    facility approved  by  the  Department.   If  the  person  is
15    serving  a  sentence  of  imprisonment, is in a Department of
16    Corrections correctional facility  or  juvenile  correctional
17    facility or is committed to institutional care, and the court
18    orders  detention  under  this Section, the court shall order
19    that the  person  be  transferred  to  a  detention  facility
20    approved  by  the  Department.   A detention order under this
21    Section remains in effect  until  the  person  is  discharged
22    after  a  trial  under  Section  35  of this Act or until the
23    effective date of a commitment order under Section 40 of this
24    Act, whichever is applicable.
25        (b)  Whenever a petition is filed  under  Section  15  of
26    this Act, the court shall hold a hearing to determine whether
27    there  is  probable cause to believe that the person named in
28    the petition is a sexually violent  person.   If  the  person
29    named in the petition is in custody, the court shall hold the
30    probable  cause hearing within 72 hours after the petition is
31    filed, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays.   The
32    court  may  grant a continuance of the probable cause hearing
33    for no more than 7 additional days upon  the  motion  of  the
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -17-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1    respondent,  for  good  cause.   If  the  person named in the
 2    petition has been released, is on  parole,  is  on  mandatory
 3    supervised release, or otherwise is not in custody, the court
 4    shall  hold  the  probable  cause hearing within a reasonable
 5    time after the filing of the petition. At the probable  cause
 6    hearing,  the  court  shall  admit  and consider all relevant
 7    hearsay evidence.
 8        (c)  If the court determines after a hearing  that  there
 9    is  probable  cause  to  believe that the person named in the
10    petition is a sexually violent person, the court shall  order
11    that  the person be taken into custody if he or she is not in
12    custody and shall order the person to be transferred within a
13    reasonable time to an appropriate facility for an  evaluation
14    as to whether the person is a sexually violent person. If the
15    person  who  is  named  in  the petition refuses to speak to,
16    communicate with, or otherwise fails to  cooperate  with  the
17    examining  evaluator from the Department of Human Services or
18    the Department of Corrections, that person may only introduce
19    evidence and testimony from any expert or professional person
20    who is retained or court-appointed to conduct an  examination
21    of  the  person that results from a review of the records and
22    may not introduce evidence resulting from an  examination  of
23    the person. Any evaluation conducted under this Section shall
24    be  by  an  evaluator  who  is  certified by the Sex Offender
25    Management  Board  and  in  conformance  with  the  standards
26    developed  under  the  Sex  Offender  Management  Board  Act.
27    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 10  of  the  Mental
28    Health  and  Developmental  Disabilities Confidentiality Act,
29    all evaluations  conducted  pursuant  to  this  Act  and  all
30    Illinois Department of Corrections treatment records shall be
31    admissible  at  all  proceedings  held  pursuant to this Act,
32    including the probable cause hearing and the trial.
33        If the court determines  that  probable  cause  does  not
34    exist  to  believe  that  the  person  is  a sexually violent
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -18-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1    person, the court shall dismiss the petition.
 2        (d)  The Department shall promulgate rules  that  provide
 3    the  qualifications  for persons conducting evaluations under
 4    subsection (c) of this Section.
 5        (e)  If the  person  named  in  the  petition  claims  or
 6    appears  to  be  indigent,  the  court  shall,  prior  to the
 7    probable cause hearing under subsection (b) of this  Section,
 8    appoint counsel.

10        (725 ILCS 207/40)
11        Sec. 40.  Commitment.
12        (a)  If a court or jury determines that the person who is
13    the  subject  of a petition under Section 15 of this Act is a
14    sexually violent person, the court shall order the person  to
15    be  committed  to  the custody of the Department for control,
16    care and treatment until such time as the person is no longer
17    a sexually violent person.
18        (b) (1)  The court  shall  enter  an  initial  commitment
19        order  under  this  Section pursuant to a hearing held as
20        soon as practicable after the judgment  is  entered  that
21        the person who is the subject of a petition under Section
22        15  is  a  sexually  violent  person.  If the court lacks
23        sufficient information to make the determination required
24        by paragraph (b)(2) of  this  Section  immediately  after
25        trial,   it   may  adjourn  the  hearing  and  order  the
26        Department to conduct a predisposition investigation or a
27        supplementary mental examination, or both, to assist  the
28        court  in framing the commitment order.   A supplementary
29        mental examination under this Section shall be  conducted
30        in accordance with Section 3-804 of the Mental Health and
31        Developmental Disabilities Code.
32             (2)  An  order  for  commitment  under  this Section
33        shall specify  either  institutional  care  in  a  secure
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -19-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1        facility,  as  provided  under Section 50 of this Act, or
 2        conditional release.  In determining  whether  commitment
 3        shall  be  for institutional care in a secure facility or
 4        for conditional release, the  court  shall  consider  the
 5        nature  and  circumstances  of  the behavior that was the
 6        basis of the allegation in the petition  under  paragraph
 7        (b)(1)  of  Section  15,  the person's mental history and
 8        present mental condition, where the person will live, how
 9        the person will support  himself  or  herself,  and  what
10        arrangements  are available to ensure that the person has
11        access to and will participate  in  necessary  treatment.
12        All  treatment, whether in institutional care in a secure
13        facility  or  while  on  conditional  release,  shall  be
14        provided by an individual who is in conformance with  the
15        standards  developed  under  the  Sex Offender Management
16        Board Act. The Department shall arrange for control, care
17        and treatment of the  person  in  the  least  restrictive
18        manner consistent with the requirements of the person and
19        in accordance with the court's commitment order.
20             (3)  If   the   court   finds  that  the  person  is
21        appropriate for  conditional  release,  the  court  shall
22        notify  the  Department.   The Department shall prepare a
23        plan that identifies the treatment and services, if  any,
24        that  the person will receive in the community.  The plan
25        shall address the person's need, if any, for supervision,
26        counseling,  medication,  community   support   services,
27        residential services, vocational services, and alcohol or
28        other  drug abuse treatment.  The Department may contract
29        with a county  health  department,  with  another  public
30        agency  or with a private agency to provide the treatment
31        and services identified in  the  plan.   The  plan  shall
32        specify   who  will  be  responsible  for  providing  the
33        treatment and services identified in the plan.  The  plan
34        shall  be  presented to the court for its approval within
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -20-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1        60 days after  the  court  finding  that  the  person  is
 2        appropriate   for   conditional   release,   unless   the
 3        Department   and   the  person  to  be  released  request
 4        additional time to  develop  the  plan.  The  conditional
 5        release  program  operated  under  this  Section  is  not
 6        subject  to  the  provisions  of  the  Mental  Health and
 7        Developmental Disabilities Confidentiality Act.
 8             (4)  An order for  conditional  release  places  the
 9        person  in  the custody and control of the Department.  A
10        person  on  conditional  release  is   subject   to   the
11        conditions  set  by  the  court  and  to the rules of the
12        Department.  Before a person  is  placed  on  conditional
13        release  by the court under this Section, the court shall
14        so notify the  municipal  police  department  and  county
15        sheriff  for  the  municipality  and  county in which the
16        person will be residing.   The  notification  requirement
17        under  this  Section does not apply if a municipal police
18        department or county  sheriff  submits  to  the  court  a
19        written  statement  waiving the right to be notified.  If
20        the  Department  alleges  that  a  released  person   has
21        violated  any  condition  or  rule, or that the safety of
22        others requires that conditional release be  revoked,  he
23        or  she  may be taken into custody under the rules of the
24        Department.
25             At  any  time  during  which  the   person   is   on
26        conditional  release,  if  the Department determines that
27        the person has violated any condition or  rule,  or  that
28        the safety of others requires that conditional release be
29        revoked,  the Department may request the Attorney General
30        or State's Attorney to request  the  court  to  issue  an
31        emergency  ex  parte  order directing any law enforcement
32        officer to take the person into custody and transport the
33        person to the county jail. The Department may request, or
34        the Attorney General  or  State's  Attorney  may  request
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -21-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1        independently  of  the  Department,  that  a  petition to
 2        revoke conditional release be filed.  When a petition  is
 3        filed,  the  court  may  order  the Department to issue a
 4        notice to the person to be present at the  Department  or
 5        other  agency designated by the court, order a summons to
 6        the person to be present, or order a body attachment  for
 7        all  law  enforcement  officers  to  take the person into
 8        custody and transport him or  her  to  the  county  jail,
 9        hospital,  or  treatment  facility.  The Department shall
10        submit  a  statement  showing  probable  cause   of   the
11        detention   and  a  petition  to  revoke  the  order  for
12        conditional release to the  committing  court  within  48
13        hours  after  the  detention.   The  court shall hear the
14        petition within 30  days,  unless  the  hearing  or  time
15        deadline  is  waived by the detained person.  Pending the
16        revocation hearing, the Department may detain the  person
17        in  a  jail,  in  a  hospital or treatment facility.  The
18        State has the burden of proving by clear  and  convincing
19        evidence  that  any rule or condition of release has been
20        violated, or that the safety of others requires that  the
21        conditional  release be revoked.  If the court determines
22        after hearing that any rule or condition of  release  has
23        been violated, or that the safety of others requires that
24        conditional  release  be revoked, it may revoke the order
25        for conditional  release  and  order  that  the  released
26        person  be placed in an appropriate institution until the
27        person is discharged from the commitment under Section 65
28        of this Act or until again placed on conditional  release
29        under Section 60 of this Act.
30             (5)  An  order  for  conditional  release places the
31        person  in  the  custody,  care,  and  control   of   the
32        Department.   The court shall order the person be subject
33        to  the  following  rules  of  conditional  release,   in
34        addition  to any other conditions ordered, and the person
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -22-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1        shall be given a certificate setting forth the conditions
 2        of conditional release.  These conditions shall  be  that
 3        the person:

12             the  court  or, in circumstances in which the reason
13             for the absence is of such an emergency nature, that
14             prior consent by the court is not  possible  without
15             the   prior   notification   and   approval  of  the
16             Department;
17                  (E)  at the direction of the Department, notify
18             third parties of the risks that may be occasioned by
19             his or  her  criminal  record  or  sexual  offending
20             history   or   characteristics,   and   permit   the
21             supervising   officer   or   agent   to   make   the
22             notification requirement;
23                  (F)  attend    and    fully    participate   in
24             assessment,  treatment,  and   behavior   monitoring
25             including,    but    not    limited   to,   medical,
26             psychological or psychiatric treatment  specific  to
27             sexual  offending, drug addiction, or alcoholism, to
28             the extent appropriate to the person based upon  the
29             recommendation  and  findings made in the Department
30             evaluation   or   based    upon    any    subsequent
31             recommendations by the Department;
32                  (G)  waive  confidentiality  allowing the court

23        (a)  If a person has been committed under Section  40  of
24    this Act and has not been discharged under Section 65 of this
25    Act,  the  Department  shall conduct an examination of his or

28    months  from  the  completion  of the last evaluation for the
29    purpose of determining whether the person has made sufficient
30    progress to be conditionally released or discharged.  At  the
31    time  of  a  reexamination under this Section, the person who
32    has been committed may retain or, if he or  she  is  indigent
33    and  so requests, the court may appoint a qualified expert or

 2        (b)  Any examiner conducting an  examination  under  this
 3    Section  shall prepare a written report of the examination no
 4    later than 30 days after the date of  the  examination.   The

14    which the person is subject to the commitment order.

20        Sec. 60.  Petition for conditional release.
21        (a)  Any  person  who is committed for institutional care
22    in a secure facility or other facility under  Section  40  of
23    this  Act  may  petition  the  committing court to modify its
24    order by authorizing conditional release if at least 6 months
25    have elapsed since the initial commitment order was  entered,
26    the  most  recent  release  petition  was  denied or the most
27    recent  order  for  conditional  release  was  revoked.   The
28    director of the facility at which the person  is  placed  may
29    file  a petition under this Section on the person's behalf at
30    any time.
31        (b)  If  the  person  files  a  timely  petition  without
32    counsel, the court shall serve a copy of the petition on  the
33    Attorney General or State's Attorney, whichever is applicable
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -28-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1    and,  subject  to paragraph (c)(1) of Section 25 of this Act,
 2    appoint counsel.  If the person  petitions  through  counsel,
 3    his  or  her  attorney  shall  serve  the Attorney General or

 5        (c)  Within 20 days after receipt of  the  petition,  the
 6    court   shall  appoint  one  or  more  examiners  having  the
 7    specialized  knowledge  determined  by  the   court   to   be
 8    appropriate,  who  shall  examine the mental condition of the
 9    person and furnish a written report of the examination to the
10    court within 30 days after appointment.  The examiners  shall
11    have   reasonable  access  to  the  person  for  purposes  of
12    examination and to the person's past  and  present  treatment
13    records  and  patient  health  care  records.   If  any  such
14    examiner   believes   that  the  person  is  appropriate  for
15    conditional release, the examiner shall report on the type of
16    treatment and services that the person may need while in  the
17    community on conditional release.  The State has the right to
18    have the person evaluated by experts chosen by the State. Any
19    examination  or evaluation conducted under this Section shall
20    be in conformance with the standards developed under the  Sex
21    Offender  Management  Board  Act.    The  court  shall  set a
22    probable  cause  hearing  as  soon  as  practical  after  the
23    examiner's report is filed.  If the court determines  at  the
24    probable  cause  hearing that cause exists to believe that it
25    is not substantially probable that the person will engage  in
26    acts of sexual violence if on release or conditional release,
27    the court shall set a hearing on the issue.
28        (d)  The  court,  without a jury, shall hear the petition
29    within 30  days  after  the  report  of  the  court-appointed
30    examiner  is  filed  with  the  court,  unless the petitioner
31    waives this time limit.  The court shall grant  the  petition
32    unless the State proves by clear and convincing evidence that
33    the   person   has   not   made  sufficient  progress  to  be
34    conditionally released.  In  making  a  decision  under  this
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -29-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1    subsection,   the   court   must   consider  the  nature  and
 2    circumstances of the behavior  that  was  the  basis  of  the
 3    allegation  in the petition under paragraph (b)(1) of Section
 4    15 of this Act,  the  person's  mental  history  and  present
 5    mental  condition, where the person will live, how the person
 6    will support himself or herself  and  what  arrangements  are
 7    available  to  ensure  that the person has access to and will
 8    participate in necessary treatment.
 9        (e)  Before  the  court  may  enter  an  order  directing
10    conditional release to a less restrictive alternative it must
11    find the following: (1) the  person  will  be  treated  by  a
12    Department  approved  treatment  provider,  (2) the treatment
13    provider has presented a specific course of treatment and has
14    agreed to assume responsibility for the  treatment  and  will
15    report  progress  to  the  Department on a regular basis, and
16    will  report  violations  immediately  to   the   Department,
17    consistent  with  treatment  and  supervision  needs  of  the
18    respondent, (3) housing exists that is sufficiently secure to
19    protect  the  community,  and  the person or agency providing
20    housing to the conditionally released person  has  agreed  in
21    writing  to  accept  the  person,  to  provide  the  level of
22    security required by the court, and immediately to report  to
23    the  Department  if the person leaves the housing to which he
24    or she has  been  assigned  without  authorization,  (4)  the
25    person  is  willing  to  or  has  agreed  to  comply with the
26    treatment provider, the Department, and the  court,  and  (5)
27    the  person  has agreed or is willing to agree to comply with
28    the behavioral monitoring requirements imposed by  the  court
29    and the Department.
30        (f)  If  the  court  finds that the person is appropriate
31    for  conditional  release,  the  court   shall   notify   the
32    Department.    The  Department  shall  prepare  a  plan  that
33    identifies the treatment  and  services,  if  any,  that  the
34    person  will receive in the community. The plan shall address
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -30-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1    the person's  need,  if  any,  for  supervision,  counseling,
 2    medication, community support services, residential services,
 3    vocational   services,   and  alcohol  or  other  drug  abuse
 4    treatment.  The Department may contract with a county  health
 5    department,  with  another  public  agency  or with a private
 6    agency to provide the treatment and  services  identified  in
 7    the plan.  The plan shall specify who will be responsible for
 8    providing  the treatment and services identified in the plan.
 9    The plan shall be presented to the  court  for  its  approval
10    within  60  days  after  the court finding that the person is
11    appropriate for conditional release,  unless  the  Department
12    and  the  person  to  be  released request additional time to
13    develop the plan.
14        (g)  The provisions of paragraph (b)(4) of Section 40  of
15    this  Act  apply  to  an order for conditional release issued
16    under this Section.

19        Sec. 65.  Petition for discharge; procedure.
20        (a)(1)  If the Secretary determines at any  time  that  a
21    person  committed  under  this  Act  is  no longer a sexually
22    violent person, the Secretary shall authorize the  person  to
23    petition  the  committing  court  for  discharge.  The person
24    shall file the petition with the court and serve a copy  upon
25    the  Attorney  General  or the State's Attorney's office that
26    filed the petition under subsection (a) of Section 15 of this
27    Act, whichever is applicable.  The court, upon receipt of the
28    petition for discharge, shall order  a  hearing  to  be  held
29    within 45 days after the date of receipt of the petition.
30        (2)  At  a  hearing  under  this subsection, the Attorney
31    General or State's Attorney,  whichever  filed  the  original
32    petition,  shall represent the State and shall have the right
33    to have the petitioner examined by an expert or  professional
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -31-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1    person  of  his  or  her  choice.   The  examination shall be
 2    conducted in conformance with the standards  developed  under
 3    the  Sex Offender Management Board Act.  The committed person
 4    or the State may elect to have the  hearing  before  a  jury.
 5    The  State  has the burden of proving by clear and convincing
 6    evidence that the petitioner  is  still  a  sexually  violent
 7    person.
 8        (3)  If the court or jury is satisfied that the State has
 9    not  met  its  burden of proof under paragraph (a)(2) of this
10    Section, the petitioner shall be discharged from the  custody
11    or  supervision of the Department.  If the court is satisfied
12    that the State has met its burden of  proof  under  paragraph
13    (a)(2), the court may proceed under Section 40 of this Act to
14    determine   whether   to  modify  the  petitioner's  existing
15    commitment order.
16        (b)(1)  A person may petition the  committing  court  for
17    discharge from custody or supervision without the Secretary's
18    approval.  At the time of an examination under subsection (a)
19    of  Section  55  of this Act, the Secretary shall provide the
20    committed person with a written notice of the person's  right
21    to  petition  the  court  for  discharge over the Secretary's
22    objection.  The notice shall contain a waiver of rights.  The
23    Secretary shall forward the notice and  waiver  form  to  the
24    court  with  the report of the Department's examination under
25    Section 55 of this Act.  If the person does not affirmatively
26    waive the right to petition, the court shall set  a  probable
27    cause hearing to determine whether facts exist that warrant a
28    hearing  on  whether  the  person is still a sexually violent
29    person. If a person does not file a petition  for  discharge,
30    yet  fails to waive the right to petition under this Section,
31    then the probable cause hearing consists only of a review  of
32    the  reexamination  reports  and  arguments  on behalf of the
33    parties. The committed person has a right to have an attorney
34    represent him or her at the probable cause hearing,  but  the
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -32-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1    person  is  not  entitled to be present at the probable cause
 2    hearing. The probable cause hearing under this  Section  must
 3    be  held  within  45  days of the filing of the reexamination
 4    report under Section 55 of this Act.
 5        (2)  If  the  court  determines  at  the  probable  cause
 6    hearing under paragraph (b)(1) of this Section that  probable
 7    cause  exists  to  believe  that  the  committed person is no
 8    longer a sexually violent person, then the court shall set  a
 9    hearing  on  the  issue. At a hearing under this Section, the
10    committed person is entitled to be present and to the benefit
11    of the protections afforded to the person under Section 25 of
12    this Act. The committed person or the State may elect to have
13    a hearing under this Section before a jury.  A verdict  of  a
14    jury  under this Section is not valid unless it is unanimous.
15    The Attorney General or State's Attorney, whichever filed the
16    original petition, shall represent the  State  at  a  hearing
17    under  this  Section.    The  State has the right to have the
18    committed person evaluated by experts chosen  by  the  State.
19    At  the hearing, the State has the burden of proving by clear
20    and convincing evidence that the committed person is still  a
21    sexually violent person.
22        (3)  If the court or jury is satisfied that the State has
23    not  met  its  burden of proof under paragraph (b)(2) of this
24    Section, the person shall be discharged from the  custody  or
25    supervision  of  the  Department.   If  the  court or jury is
26    satisfied that the State has met its burden  of  proof  under
27    paragraph (b)(2) of this Section, the court may proceed under
28    Section  40  of  this  Act to determine whether to modify the
29    person's existing commitment order.

31    transfers  to  the  Department  of  Human  Services which are

HB4124 Engrossed            -37-               LRB9213263ACsb

 2    opportunity to attain the achievement level equivalent to the

10    incarceration,   participates   in   an  educational  program
11    provided by  or  through  the  Department  and  through  that

17    in providing that person during his or her incarceration with
18    the education that qualifies him or her for the award of that
19    degree.  The costs for which reimbursement is required  under
20    this  subsection  shall  be  determined  and  computed by the
21    Department  under  rules  and  regulations  that   it   shall
22    establish for that purpose.  However, interest at the rate of
23    6%  per  annum shall be charged on the balance of those costs
24    from time to time remaining unpaid,  from  the  date  of  the
25    person's  parole,  mandatory  supervised  release, or release
26    constituting a final termination of his or her commitment  to
27    the Department until paid.
28        (e)  A  person committed to the Department who becomes in
29    need of medical or surgical treatment  but  is  incapable  of
30    giving consent thereto shall receive such medical or surgical
31    treatment  by  the chief administrative officer consenting on
32    the person's behalf. Before the chief administrative  officer

 2             (1)  that immediate medical or surgical treatment is
 3        required  relative  to  a  condition threatening to cause
 4        death, damage  or  impairment  to  bodily  functions,  or
 5        disfigurement; and
 6             (2)  that  the  person  is  not  capable  of  giving
 7        consent  to  such  treatment;  the  chief  administrative
 8        officer  may  give  consent  for such medical or surgical
 9        treatment, and such consent shall be  deemed  to  be  the
10        consent  of  the  person for all purposes, including, but
11        not limited to, the authority of a physician to give such
12        treatment.
13        (f)  In the event that the person requires  medical  care
14    and  treatment  at  a  place  other  than  the institution or
15    facility,  the  person  may  be   removed   therefrom   under
16    conditions prescribed by the Department. The Department shall
17    require  the  committed  person  receiving  medical or dental
18    services on a non-emergency basis to pay a $2  co-payment  to
19    the Department for each visit for medical or dental services.
20    The  amount  of  each  co-payment  shall be deducted from the
21    committed person's individual account. A committed person who
22    has a chronic illness, as defined  by  Department  rules  and
23    regulations,  shall  be  exempt  from  the  $2 co-payment for
24    treatment of the chronic illness.  A committed  person  shall
25    not  be  subject  to  a  $2  co-payment  for follow-up visits
26    ordered by a physician, who  is  employed  by,  or  contracts
27    with,  the Department.  A committed person who is indigent is
28    exempt from the $2 co-payment  and  is  entitled  to  receive
29    medical  or  dental services on the same basis as a committed
30    person who is financially  able  to  afford  the  co-payment.
31    Notwithstanding any other provision in this subsection (f) to
32    the  contrary,  any person committed to any facility operated
33    by the Juvenile Division, as set forth in subsection  (b)  of
34    Section  3-2-5  of  this  Code, is exempt from the co-payment

 2    facilities.
 3        (g)  Any  person  having  sole  custody of a child at the
 4    time of commitment or any woman giving birth to a child after
 5    her  commitment,  may  arrange  through  the  Department   of
 6    Children  and  Family  Services for suitable placement of the
 7    child outside of the Department of Corrections. The  Director
 8    of the Department of Corrections may determine that there are
 9    special  reasons why the child should continue in the custody
10    of the mother until the child is 6 years old.
11        (h)  The Department  may  provide  Family  Responsibility
12    Services  which  may  consist  of,  but not be limited to the
13    following:
14             (1)  family advocacy counseling;

18             (5)  parent  and  child  reunification   counseling,
19        either  separately  or  together,  preceding the inmate's
20        release; and
21             (6)  a prerelease reunification  staffing  involving
22        the   family    advocate,  the  inmate  and  the  child's
23        counselor, or both and the inmate.
24        (i)  Prior to  the  release  of  any  inmate  who  has  a
25    documented  history  of  intravenous  drug  use, and upon the
26    receipt  of  that  inmate's  written  informed  consent,  the
27    Department shall provide for the testing of such  inmate  for
28    infection  with  human  immunodeficiency  virus (HIV) and any
29    other identified causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency
30    syndrome (AIDS). The testing provided under  this  subsection
31    shall consist of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
32    test  or  such  other test as may be approved by the Illinois
33    Department of Public Health. If the test result is  positive,
34    the  Western  Blot  Assay  or more reliable confirmatory test
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -40-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1    shall be administered. All inmates tested in accordance  with
 2    the  provisions  of  this  subsection  shall be provided with
 3    pre-test  and  post-test  counseling.   Notwithstanding   any
 4    provision  of this subsection to the contrary, the Department
 5    shall not be required to conduct the testing  and  counseling
 6    required  by this subsection unless sufficient funds to cover
 7    all costs of such testing and counseling are appropriated for
 8    that purpose by the General Assembly.
 9        (j)  Any person convicted of a sex offense as defined  in
10    the  Sex  Offender  Management Board Act shall be required to
11    undergo sex  offender  treatment.   The  treatment  shall  be
12    provided in accordance with the standards developed under the
13    Sex Offender Management Board Act.

18        officer;
19             (5)  permit the probation officer to  visit  him  at

22             (6)  perform no less  than  30  hours  of  community
23        service and not more than 120 hours of community service,
24        if community service is available in the jurisdiction and
25        is  funded  and  approved  by  the county board where the
26        offense was committed, where the offense was  related  to
27        or  in  furtherance  of  the  criminal  activities  of an
28        organized  gang  and  was  motivated  by  the  offender's
29        membership in or allegiance to an  organized  gang.   The
30        community  service  shall include, but not be limited to,
31        the  cleanup  and  repair  of  any  damage  caused  by  a

 2        When  possible  and  reasonable,  the  community  service
 3        should  be performed in the offender's neighborhood.  For

15        passing the high school level Test of General Educational
16        Development   (GED)   or  to  work  toward  completing  a
17        vocational training program approved by the  court.   The
18        person  on probation or conditional discharge must attend
19        a  public  institution  of  education   to   obtain   the
20        educational  or  vocational  training  required  by  this

28        discharge has been revoked as provided in Section  5-6-4.

 7             placed   on  an  approved  monitoring  device  as  a
 8             condition of probation or conditional discharge, the
 9             court shall impose a reasonable fee for each day  of
10             the  use of the device, as established by the county
11             board in subsection  (g)  of  this  Section,  unless
12             after  determining  the inability of the offender to
13             pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser fee  or  no
14             fee as the case may be. This fee shall be imposed in
15             addition  to  the fees imposed under subsections (g)

27             the  use of the device, as established by the county
28             board in subsection  (g)  of  this  Section,  unless
29             after  determining the inability of the defendant to
30             pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser fee  or  no
31             fee  as  the case may be.  This fee shall be imposed
32             in addition to the fees  imposed  under  subsections
33             (g)  and  (i)  of  this  Section.   The fee shall be

12        the court of  another  state,  tribe,  or  United  States
13        territory.  A  copy  of  the order of protection shall be

31        accompanying  the  defendant,  and  advance approval by a
32        probation officer, if the defendant has  been  placed  on
33        probation  or  advance  approval  by  the  court,  if the
34        defendant was placed on conditional discharge;

 1             (15)  refrain from having any contact,  directly  or

 9        his or her blood or urine or both for tests to  determine
10        the presence of any illicit drug.
11        (c)  The  court  may  as  a  condition of probation or of
12    conditional discharge require that a person under 18 years of
13    age found guilty  of  any  alcohol,  cannabis  or  controlled
14    substance   violation,  refrain  from  acquiring  a  driver's
15    license  during  the  period  of  probation  or   conditional
16    discharge.   If  such  person is in possession of a permit or
17    license, the court may require that the  minor  refrain  from
18    driving  or  operating any motor vehicle during the period of
19    probation  or  conditional  discharge,  except  as   may   be
20    necessary in the course of the minor's lawful employment.

26    the Illinois Vehicle Code, the court shall not require  as  a
27    condition   of  the  sentence  of  probation  or  conditional
28    discharge that the offender  be  committed  to  a  period  of

30    not include  periods  of  confinement  given  pursuant  to  a
31    sentence   of   county  impact  incarceration  under  Section
32    5-8-1.2. This 6 month  limit  does  not  apply  to  a  person
33    sentenced  to  probation  as  a  result  of a conviction of a
34    fourth or subsequent violation of subsection (c-4) of Section

 2    a local ordinance.
 3        Persons committed  to  imprisonment  as  a  condition  of
 4    probation  or conditional discharge shall not be committed to
 5    the Department of Corrections.
 6        (f)  The  court  may  combine  a  sentence  of   periodic
 7    imprisonment under Article 7 or a sentence to a county impact
 8    incarceration  program  under  Article  8  with a sentence of
 9    probation or conditional discharge.
10        (g)  An offender sentenced to probation or to conditional
11    discharge  and  who  during  the  term  of  either  undergoes
12    mandatory drug or alcohol testing, or both, or is assigned to
13    be placed on an approved electronic monitoring device,  shall
14    be ordered to pay all costs incidental to such mandatory drug
15    or alcohol testing, or both, and all costs incidental to such
16    approved   electronic   monitoring  in  accordance  with  the
17    defendant's ability to pay those  costs.   The  county  board
18    with  the  concurrence  of  the  Chief  Judge of the judicial
19    circuit in  which  the  county  is  located  shall  establish
20    reasonable  fees  for  the  cost of maintenance, testing, and
21    incidental expenses related to the mandatory drug or  alcohol
22    testing,  or  both,  and  all  costs  incidental  to approved
23    electronic monitoring, involved  in  a  successful  probation
24    program  for  the county.  The concurrence of the Chief Judge
25    shall be in the form of an  administrative  order.  The  fees
26    shall  be  collected  by the clerk of the circuit court.  The
27    clerk of the circuit court shall  pay  all  moneys  collected
28    from  these  fees  to  the county treasurer who shall use the
29    moneys collected to defray the costs of drug testing, alcohol
30    testing, and  electronic  monitoring.  The  county  treasurer
31    shall  deposit  the fees collected in the county working cash
32    fund under Section 6-27001 or Section 6-29002 of the Counties
33    Code, as the case may be.

 2    with the concurrence of both  courts,  or  to  another  state
 3    under   an   Interstate  Probation  Reciprocal  Agreement  as
 4    provided in Section 3-3-11.  Further transfers or retransfers
 5    of jurisdiction are also authorized in the same manner.   The
 6    court  to  which jurisdiction has been transferred shall have
 7    the same powers as the sentencing court.
 8        (i)  The court shall impose upon an offender sentenced to
 9    probation after January 1, 1989 or to  conditional  discharge
10    after  January  1,  1992, as a condition of such probation or
11    conditional discharge,  a  fee  of  $25  for  each  month  of
12    probation or conditional discharge supervision ordered by the
13    court,  unless  after determining the inability of the person
14    sentenced to probation or conditional discharge  to  pay  the
15    fee,  the  court  assesses  a  lesser  fee. The court may not
16    impose the fee on a minor who is made a  ward  of  the  State
17    under  the  Juvenile  Court Act of 1987 while the minor is in
18    placement. The fee shall be imposed only upon an offender who
19    is actively supervised by the probation  and  court  services
20    department.   The  fee shall be collected by the clerk of the
21    circuit court.  The clerk of the circuit court shall pay  all
22    monies  collected  from  this fee to the county treasurer for
23    deposit in  the  probation  and  court  services  fund  under
24    Section 15.1 of the Probation and Probation Officers Act.
25        (j)  All  fines  and costs imposed under this Section for
26    any violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and  11  of  the  Illinois
27    Vehicle  Code,  or  a similar provision of a local ordinance,
28    and any violation of the Child Passenger Protection Act, or a
29    similar provision of a local ordinance,  shall  be  collected
30    and  disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under Section
31    27.5 of the Clerks of Courts Act.

 3        Sec. 5-7-1.  Sentence of Periodic Imprisonment.
 4        (a)  A sentence of periodic imprisonment is a sentence of
 5    imprisonment  during  which  the  committed  person  may   be
 6    released  for  periods of time during the day or night or for
 7    periods of days, or both, or if convicted of a felony,  other
 8    than  first  degree  murder,  a  Class  X  or Class 1 felony,
 9    committed to any county, municipal, or regional  correctional
10    or  detention  institution or facility in this State for such
11    periods of time as the court may  direct.  Unless  the  court
12    orders  otherwise,  the  particular  times  and conditions of
13    release shall be determined by the Department of Corrections,
14    the  sheriff,  or  the  Superintendent  of   the   house   of
15    corrections, who is administering the program.
16        (b)  A  sentence  of periodic imprisonment may be imposed
17    to permit the defendant to:
18             (1)  seek employment;
19             (2)  work;
20             (3)  conduct  a  business  or  other   self-employed
21        occupation including housekeeping;
22             (4)  attend to family needs;
23             (5)  attend  an  educational  institution, including
24        vocational education;
25             (6)  obtain medical or psychological treatment;
26             (7)  perform work duties at a county, municipal,  or
27        regional   correctional   or   detention  institution  or
28        facility;
29             (8)  continue to reside  at  home  with  or  without
30        supervision  involving  the use of an approved electronic
31        monitoring device, subject to Article 8A of Chapter V; or
32             (9)  for any other purpose determined by the court.
33        (c)  Except where prohibited by other provisions of  this
 
HB4124 Engrossed            -54-               LRB9213263ACsb
 1    Code,   the   court   may   impose  a  sentence  of  periodic
 2    imprisonment for a felony or misdemeanor on a person  who  is
 3    17  years  of  age  or  older.  The  court shall not impose a
 4    sentence of periodic imprisonment if it imposes a sentence of
 5    imprisonment upon the defendant in excess of 90 days.
 6        (d)  A sentence of periodic imprisonment shall be  for  a
 7    definite  term  of from 3 to 4 years for a Class 1 felony, 18
 8    to 30 months for a Class 2 felony, and up to  18  months,  or
 9    the  longest  sentence  of imprisonment that could be imposed
10    for the offense, whichever is less, for all  other  offenses;
11    however,  no  person shall be sentenced to a term of periodic
12    imprisonment longer than one year if he  is  committed  to  a
13    county   correctional   institution   or   facility,  and  in
14    conjunction with that sentence participate in a  county  work
15    release  program  comparable  to  the  work  and  day release
16    program provided for in Article 13 of  the  Unified  Code  of
17    Corrections  in  State  facilities.  The term of the sentence
18    shall be calculated upon the basis of  the  duration  of  its
19    term  rather  than upon the basis of the actual days spent in
20    confinement.  No sentence of periodic imprisonment  shall  be
21    subject  to  the good time credit provisions of Section 3-6-3
22    of this Code.
23        (e)  When  the  court  imposes  a  sentence  of  periodic
24    imprisonment, it shall state:
25             (1)  the term of such sentence;
26             (2)  the days or parts of days which  the  defendant
27        is to be confined;
28             (3)  the conditions.
29        (f)  The  court may issue an order of protection pursuant
30    to the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986 as a  condition
31    of a sentence of periodic imprisonment. The Illinois Domestic
32    Violence  Act  of 1986 shall govern the issuance, enforcement
33    and recording of  orders  of  protection  issued  under  this
34    Section.   A  copy  of  the  order  of  protection  shall  be

13    mandatory  drug  or  alcohol  testing,  or  both,  and  costs
14    incidental  to  such  approved   electronic   monitoring   in
15    accordance  with  the defendant's ability to pay those costs.
16    The county board with the concurrence of the Chief  Judge  of
17    the  judicial  circuit  in  which the county is located shall
18    establish  reasonable  fees  for  the  cost  of  maintenance,
19    testing, and incidental expenses  related  to  the  mandatory
20    drug or alcohol testing, or both, and all costs incidental to
21    approved  electronic  monitoring,  of  all  offenders  with a
22    sentence of periodic imprisonment.  The  concurrence  of  the
23    Chief  Judge shall be in the form of an administrative order.
24    The fees shall be collected  by  the  clerk  of  the  circuit
25    court.   The  clerk of the circuit court shall pay all moneys
26    collected from these fees to the county treasurer  who  shall
27    use  the  moneys  collected  to  defray  the  costs  of  drug
28    testing, alcohol testing, and  electronic  monitoring.    The
29    county  treasurer  shall  deposit  the  fees collected in the
30    county working cash fund under  Section  6-27001  or  Section
31    6-29002 of the Counties Code, as the case may be.
32        (h)  All  fees  and  costs imposed under this Section for

 2    similar provision of a local ordinance,  shall  be  collected
 3    and  disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under Section

 5        (i)  A  defendant  at  least  17  years  of  age  who  is
 6    convicted of a misdemeanor or felony in a county of 3,000,000
 7    or more inhabitants and who has not been previously convicted

16    defendant  sentenced  to  periodic imprisonment must attend a
17    public institution of education to obtain the educational  or
18    vocational  training  required  by  this subsection (i).  The
19    defendant sentenced to a term of periodic imprisonment  shall
20    be required to pay for the cost of the educational courses or
21    GED  test, if a fee is charged for those courses or test. The
