20    is  made  against any person so arrested an affidavit stating
21    the  name  of  the  person  charged  in  the   complaint,   a
22    description  of the condition of the animal or animals taken,

29    the  court  of competent jurisdiction. The officer must place
30    the animal or animals in the custody of an animal control  or
31    humane  agency  and  the  agency  must  retain custody of the
32    animal  or  animals  subject  to  an  order  of   the   court
33    adjudicating  the  charges on the merits and before which the
 
                            -4-            LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    person complained against is required to  appear  for  trial.

 6    seized.   The  petition  shall  be filed with the court, with
 7    copies served on the impounding agency, the owner, and anyone
 8    claiming an interest in the  animals.   In  a  "petition  for
 9    forfeiture  prior to trial", the burden is on the prosecution

17    residing  at  the  place of seizure or, if the address of the
18    owner is different from the address of the person  from  whom
19    the  animal  or  animals were seized, delivered by registered
20    mail to his or her last known address.

21        (510 ILCS 70/3.05 new)
22        Sec. 3.05.  Security for companion  animals  and  animals
23    used for fighting purposes.
24        (a)  In  the  case  of  companion  animals  as defined in
25    Section 2.01a or animals used for fighting purposes  pursuant
26    to  Section  4.01, the animal control or humane agency having
27    custody of the animal or animals may file a petition with the
28    court requesting that the person  from  whom  the  animal  or
29    animals are seized, or the owner of the animal or animals, be
30    ordered  to post security.  The security must be in an amount
31    sufficient to  secure  payment  of  all  reasonable  expenses
32    expected  to  be  incurred  by  the  animal control or humane
33    agency in caring for and providing for the animal or  animals
 
                            -5-            LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    pending  the disposition of the charges.  Reasonable expenses
 2    include, but are not limited to, estimated medical  care  and
 3    boarding  of the animal or animals for 30 days. The amount of
 4    the security shall be determined by the  court  after  taking
 5    into  consideration all of the facts and circumstances of the
 6    case, including, but not limited to,  the  recommendation  of
 7    the  impounding  organization  having custody and care of the
 8    seized animal or animals and  the  cost  of  caring  for  the
 9    animal or animals.  If security has been posted in accordance
10    with  this  Section,  the animal control or humane agency may
11    draw from the security  the  actual  costs  incurred  by  the
12    agency in caring for the seized animal or animals.
13        (b)  Upon  receipt  of  a  petition, the court must set a
14    hearing on the petition, to be conducted  within  5  business
15    days  after the petition is filed.  The petitioner must serve
16    a true copy of  the  petition  upon  the  defendant  and  the
17    State's  Attorney  for  the  county  in  which  the animal or
18    animals were seized.  The petitioner must also serve  a  true
19    copy  of  the  petition  on  any  interested person.  For the
20    purposes of this subsection,  "interested  person"  means  an
21    individual,   partnership,   firm,   joint   stock   company,
22    corporation,  association,  trust,  estate,  or  other  legal
23    entity  that  the  court  determines  may  have  a  pecuniary
24    interest in the animal or animals that are the subject of the
25    petition.  The court must set a hearing date to determine any
26    interested parties.  The court may waive for good cause shown
27    the posting of security.
28        (c)  If the court orders the  posting  of  security,  the
29    security  must be posted with the clerk of the court within 5
30    business days after the hearing. If  the  person  ordered  to
31    post  security  does  not  do  so,  the animal or animals are
32    forfeited by operation of  law  and  the  animal  control  or
33    humane  agency  having  control of the animal or animals must
34    dispose of the animal or animals  through  adoption  or  must
 
                            -6-            LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    humanely euthanize the animal.  In no event may the defendant
 2    or any person residing in the defendant's household adopt the
 3    animal or animals.
 4        (d)  The impounding organization may file a petition with
 5    the court upon the expiration of the 30-day period requesting
 6    the  posting  of additional security. The court may order the
 7    person from whom the animal or animals were  seized,  or  the
 8    owner  of  the animal or animals, to post additional security
 9    with the clerk of the court to secure payment  of  reasonable
10    expenses   for   an  additional  period  of  time  pending  a
11    determination by the court of the charges against the  person
12    from whom the animal or animals were seized.
13        (e)  In  no event may the security prevent the impounding
14    organization having custody and care of the animal or animals
15    from disposing of the animal or animals before the expiration
16    of the 30-day period covered by the  security  if  the  court
17    makes  a determination of the charges against the person from
18    whom the animal or animals were seized. Upon the adjudication
19    of the  charges,  the  person  who  posted  the  security  is
20    entitled  to  a  refund of the security, in whole or in part,
21    for any expenses not incurred by the impounding organization.
22        (f)  Notwithstanding any other provision of this  Section
23    to  the  contrary,  the court may order a person charged with
24    any violation of this Act to provide necessary  food,  water,
25    shelter,  and  care  for  any  animal or animals that are the
26    basis of the charge without the  removal  of  the  animal  or
27    animals  from  their  existing location and until the charges
28    against  the  person  are  adjudicated.     Until   a   final
29    determination  of  the  charges  is made, any law enforcement
30    officer, animal control officer, Department investigator,  or
31    an approved humane investigator may be authorized by an order
32    of  the  court  to make regular visits to the place where the
33    animal or animals are being kept to ascertain if  the  animal
34    or  animals are receiving necessary food, water, shelter, and
 
                            -7-            LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    care.  Nothing in this Section prevents any  law  enforcement
 2    officer,   Department   investigator,   or   approved  humane
 3    investigator from applying for a warrant under  this  Section
 4    to  seize  any  animal  or  animals  being held by the person
 5    charged pending the adjudication of  the  charges  if  it  is
 6    determined  that  the animal or animals are not receiving the
 7    necessary food, water, shelter, or care.
 8        (g)  Nothing in this Act shall be  construed  to  prevent
 9    the  voluntary, permanent relinquishment of any animal by its
10    owner to an animal  control  or  humane  agency  in  lieu  of
11    posting  security  or  proceeding  to  a  forfeiture hearing.
12    Voluntary relinquishment shall have no effect on the criminal
13    charges that may be pursued by the appropriate authorities.
14        (h)  If an owner of a companion animal  is  acquitted  by
15    the  court  of  charges  made pursuant to this Act, the court
16    shall further order that any security that  has  been  posted
17    for  the  animal  shall  be  returned  to  the  owner  by the
18    impounding organization.

19        (510 ILCS 70/3.06 new)
20        Sec. 3.06.  Disposition of seized animals.
21        (a)  Upon the  conviction  of  the  person  charged,  all
22    animals  seized,  if  not  previously  ordered  forfeited  or
23    previously  forfeited  by  operation of law, are forfeited to
24    the facility impounding the  animals  and  must  be  humanely
25    euthanized or adopted.  Any outstanding costs incurred by the
26    impounding  facility  for  boarding  and treating the animals
27    pending the disposition of the case and any costs incurred in
28    disposing  of  the  animals  must  be  borne  by  the  person
29    convicted.
30        (b)  Any person authorized by this Section to care for an
31    animal or animals, to treat  an  animal  or  animals,  or  to
32    attempt  to  restore  an animal or animals to good health and
33    who is acting in good faith  is  immune  from  any  civil  or
 
                            -8-            LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    criminal liability that may result from his or her actions.
 2        (c)  Any  veterinarian  in  this State who observes or is
 3    presented with an animal or  animals  for  the  treatment  of
 4    aggravated  cruelty  under  Section  3.02  or  torture  under
 5    Section  3.03  of  this  Act  must  file  a  report  with the
 6    Department and cooperate with the  Department  by  furnishing
 7    the  owner's  name,  the  date  of  receipt  of the animal or
 8    animals and any treatment administered, and a description  of
 9    the  animal or animals involved, including a microchip number
10    if applicable.  Any veterinarian who in good  faith  makes  a
11    report, as required by this subsection, has immunity from any
12    liability,  civil,  criminal,  or  otherwise, that may result
13    from  his  or  her  actions.   For  the   purposes   of   any
14    proceedings,  civil  or  criminal,  the  good  faith  of  the
15    veterinarian shall be presumed.
16        An animal control or humane agency may humanely euthanize
17    severely  injured,  diseased, or suffering animals in exigent
18    circumstances.

23    person  who forfeited the animal or animals, or any person or
24    persons dwelling in the same  household  as  the  person  who
25    forfeited   the  animals  or  animals,  or  it  may  humanely
26    euthanize the animal or animals. the animal is not claimed by
27    its owner and all impoundment costs satisfied within 7  days,
28    it   may   be  sold  at  public  or  private  sale  for  fair
29    consideration  to  a  person  capable   of   providing   care
30    consistent  with  this  Act,  with  the proceeds of that sale
31    applied first to discharge the lien and  any  balance  to  be
32    paid  over to the owner. If no purchaser is found, the animal
33    may be offered for adoption or disposed of in  a  manner  not
34    inconsistent with this or any other Act.

30        (1)  The court may enter an order  of  continuance  under
31    supervision  for an offense other than first degree murder, a
32    Class X felony or a forcible felony (a) upon an admission  or
 
                            -31-           LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    stipulation by the appropriate respondent or minor respondent
 2    of the facts supporting the petition and before proceeding to

 5    minor, his or her parent, guardian, or legal  custodian,  the
 6    minor's attorney or the State's Attorney.
 7        (2)  If  the minor, his or her parent, guardian, or legal
 8    custodian, the minor's attorney or State's  Attorney  objects
 9    in  open court to any continuance and insists upon proceeding
10    to findings and adjudication, the court shall so proceed.
11        (3)  Nothing in this Section  limits  the  power  of  the
12    court   to  order  a  continuance  of  the  hearing  for  the
13    production of additional evidence or  for  any  other  proper
14    reason.
15        (4)  When  a  hearing  where  a  minor is alleged to be a
16    delinquent is continued pursuant to this Section, the  period
17    of  continuance  under  supervision may not exceed 24 months.
18    The court may terminate a continuance  under  supervision  at
19    any  time  if  warranted  by the conduct of the minor and the
20    ends of justice.
21        (5)  When a hearing  where  a  minor  is  alleged  to  be
22    delinquent  is  continued pursuant to this Section, the court
23    may, as conditions  of  the  continuance  under  supervision,
24    require the minor to do any of the following:

31        purpose  of  the  entry,  the  time of day, other persons

34             (r)  refrain  from  having  any contact, directly or
 
                            -33-           LRB9208026ARsbam05
 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             (r-5)  undergo  a medical or other procedure to have

 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 submit  samples  of
11        his  or her blood or urine or both for tests to determine
12        the presence of any illicit drug;  or
13             (t)  comply with any  other  conditions  as  may  be
14        ordered by the court.
15        (6)  A  minor  whose  case is continued under supervision
16    under subsection (5) shall be  given  a  certificate  setting
17    forth  the  conditions imposed by the court. Those conditions
18    may be reduced, enlarged, or modified by the court on  motion
19    of the probation officer or on its own motion, or that of the
20    State's  Attorney,  or,  at  the  request  of the minor after
21    notice and hearing.
22        (7)  If a petition is filed charging  a  violation  of  a
23    condition  of  the  continuance  under supervision, the court
24    shall conduct a hearing.  If the court finds that a condition
25    of supervision has not been fulfilled, the court may  proceed
26    to  findings and adjudication and disposition.  The filing of
27    a petition for violation of a condition  of  the  continuance
28    under  supervision shall toll the period of continuance under
29    supervision until the final determination of the charge,  and
30    the  term  of the continuance under supervision shall not run
31    until  the  hearing  and  disposition  of  the  petition  for
32    violation;  provided where the petition alleges conduct  that
33    does  not  constitute a criminal offense, the hearing must be
34    held within 30 days of the filing of the  petition  unless  a
 
                            -34-           LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    delay shall continue the tolling of the period of continuance
 2    under supervision for the period of the delay.
 3        (8)  When  a  hearing in which a minor is alleged to be a
 4    delinquent for reasons that include a  violation  of  Section
 5    21-1.3  of  the Criminal Code of 1961 is continued under this
 6    Section, the court shall, as a condition of  the  continuance
 7    under  supervision,  require  the  minor to perform community
 8    service for not less than 30 and not more than 120 hours,  if
 9    community  service  is  available  in  the jurisdiction.  The
10    community service shall include, but need not be limited  to,
11    the  cleanup  and repair of the damage that was caused by the
12    alleged violation or similar damage to  property  located  in
13    the  municipality  or  county  in which the alleged violation
14    occurred.  The condition may be  in  addition  to  any  other
15    condition.
16        (8.5)  When a hearing in which a minor is alleged to be a
17    delinquent  for  reasons  that include a violation of Section
18    3.02 or Section 3.03 of the Humane Care for  Animals  Act  or
19    paragraph  (d)  of  subsection  (1)  of  Section  21-1 of the
20    Criminal Code of 1961 is continued under  this  Section,  the
21    court   shall,  as  a  condition  of  the  continuance  under
22    supervision,  require  the  minor  to  undergo   medical   or
23    psychiatric   treatment   rendered   by   a  psychiatrist  or
24    psychological treatment rendered by a clinical  psychologist.
25    The condition may be in addition to any other condition.
26        (9)  When  a  hearing in which a minor is alleged to be a
27    delinquent is continued under this Section, the court, before
28    continuing the case, shall make a finding whether the offense
29    alleged to have been committed either:  (i) was related to or
30    in furtherance of the activities of an organized gang or  was
31    motivated  by  the  minor's membership in or allegiance to an
32    organized gang, or (ii) is a violation of paragraph  (13)  of
33    subsection  (a) of Section 12-2 of the Criminal Code of 1961,
34    a violation of any Section of Article 24 of the Criminal Code
 
                            -35-           LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    of 1961, or a violation of  any  statute  that  involved  the
 2    unlawful  use  of  a  firearm.   If  the court determines the
 3    question in the affirmative the court shall, as  a  condition
 4    of  the  continuance  under  supervision and as part of or in
 5    addition to any other condition of the  supervision,  require
 6    the  minor  to perform community service for not less than 30
 7    hours, provided that community service is  available  in  the
 8    jurisdiction  and  is funded and approved by the county board
 9    of the county where the offense was committed.  The community
10    service shall include,  but  need  not  be  limited  to,  the
11    cleanup  and  repair  of  any  damage  caused  by  an alleged
12    violation of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961  and
13    similar  damage  to  property  located in the municipality or
14    county  in  which  the  alleged  violation  occurred.    When
15    possible  and  reasonable,  the  community  service  shall be
16    performed in the minor's neighborhood.  For the  purposes  of
17    this Section, "organized gang" has the meaning ascribed to it
18    in  Section  10  of the Illinois Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus
19    Prevention Act.
20        (10)  The court shall  impose  upon  a  minor  placed  on
21    supervision,  as a condition of the supervision, a fee of $25
22    for each month of supervision ordered by  the  court,  unless
23    after  determining  the  inability  of  the  minor  placed on
24    supervision to pay the  fee,  the  court  assesses  a  lesser
25    amount.   The  court may not impose the fee on a minor who is
26    made a ward of the State under this Act while the minor is in
27    placement.  The fee shall be imposed only upon a minor who is
28    actively supervised  by  the  probation  and  court  services
29    department.  A court may order the parent, guardian, or legal
30    custodian  of  the minor to pay some or all of the fee on the
31    minor's behalf.

 3        (1)  The following kinds of sentencing orders may be made
 4    in respect of wards of the court:
 5             (a)  Except as provided in  Sections  5-805,  5-810,
 6        5-815,  a  minor  who is found guilty under Section 5-620
 7        may be:
 8                  (i)  put on probation or conditional  discharge
 9             and  released  to  his  or  her parents, guardian or
10             legal custodian, provided, however,  that  any  such
11             minor  who  is  not  committed  to the Department of
12             Corrections, Juvenile Division under this subsection
13             and who is found to be a delinquent for  an  offense
14             which is first degree murder, a Class X felony, or a
15             forcible felony shall be placed on probation;
16                  (ii)  placed  in accordance with Section 5-740,
17             with or without  also  being  put  on  probation  or
18             conditional discharge;
19                  (iii)  required  to  undergo  a substance abuse
20             assessment conducted  by  a  licensed  provider  and
21             participate in the indicated clinical level of care;
22                  (iv)  placed   in   the   guardianship  of  the
23             Department of Children and Family Services, but only
24             if the delinquent minor is under 13 years of age;
25                  (v)  placed in detention for a  period  not  to
26             exceed  30  days,  either  as the exclusive order of
27             disposition or, where  appropriate,  in  conjunction
28             with  any  other  order  of disposition issued under
29             this paragraph, provided  that  any  such  detention
30             shall  be in a juvenile detention home and the minor
31             so detained shall be  10  years  of  age  or  older.
32             However,  the  30-day  limitation may be extended by
33             further order of the court for a minor under age  13
34             committed  to  the Department of Children and Family
 
                            -37-           LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1             Services if the court finds  that  the  minor  is  a
 2             danger  to  himself  or  others.  The minor shall be
 3             given credit on the sentencing  order  of  detention
 4             for  time  spent  in detention under Sections 5-501,
 5             5-601, 5-710, or 5-720 of this Article as  a  result
 6             of  the  offense  for which the sentencing order was
 7             imposed. The court may grant credit on a  sentencing
 8             order  of  detention  entered  under  a violation of
 9             probation  or  violation  of  conditional  discharge
10             under Section 5-720 of this Article for  time  spent
11             in  detention  before  the  filing  of  the petition
12             alleging  the  violation.   A  minor  shall  not  be
13             deprived of  credit  for  time  spent  in  detention
14             before  the  filing  of  a violation of probation or
15             conditional discharge alleging the same  or  related
16             act or acts;
17                  (vi)  ordered     partially    or    completely
18             emancipated in accordance with the provisions of the
19             Emancipation of Mature Minors Act;
20                  (vii)  subject to having his  or  her  driver's
21             license  or  driving  privileges  suspended for such
22             time as determined by the court but only until he or
23             she attains 18 years of age;
24                  (viii)  put   on   probation   or   conditional
25             discharge and  placed  in  detention  under  Section
26             3-6039  of  the  Counties  Code  for a period not to
27             exceed the period of incarceration permitted by  law
28             for  adults  found  guilty  of  the  same offense or
29             offenses  for  which  the  minor   was   adjudicated
30             delinquent,  and  in  any  event no longer than upon
31             attainment  of  age  21;  this  subdivision   (viii)
32             notwithstanding  any  contrary provision of the law;
33             or
34                  (ix)  ordered to undergo  a  medical  or  other

 1             procedure to have a tattoo symbolizing allegiance to
 2             a street gang removed from his or her body.
 3             (b)  A  minor found to be guilty may be committed to
 4        the Department of Corrections, Juvenile  Division,  under
 5        Section  5-750  if the minor is 13 years of age or older,
 6        provided  that  the  commitment  to  the  Department   of
 7        Corrections,  Juvenile  Division, shall be made only if a
 8        term of incarceration is  permitted  by  law  for  adults
 9        found  guilty  of  the  offense  for  which the minor was
10        adjudicated delinquent.  The time during which a minor is
11        in custody before being released upon the  request  of  a
12        parent,  guardian  or legal custodian shall be considered
13        as time spent in detention.
14             (c)  When a minor is  found  to  be  guilty  for  an
15        offense  which  is a violation of the Illinois Controlled
16        Substances Act or the Cannabis Control Act   and  made  a
17        ward  of  the  court,  the  court may enter a disposition
18        order  requiring  the  minor   to   undergo   assessment,
19        counseling  or  treatment  in  a  substance abuse program
20        approved by the Department of Human Services.
21        (2)  Any sentencing order other than  commitment  to  the
22    Department of Corrections, Juvenile Division, may provide for
23    protective supervision under Section 5-725 and may include an
24    order of protection under Section 5-730.
25        (3)  Unless  the  sentencing order expressly so provides,
26    it does not operate  to  close  proceedings  on  the  pending
27    petition,  but is subject to modification until final closing
28    and discharge of the proceedings under Section 5-750.
29        (4)  In addition to any other  sentence,  the  court  may
30    order  any  minor found to be delinquent to make restitution,
31    in  monetary  or  non-monetary  form,  under  the  terms  and
32    conditions  of  Section  5-5-6  of  the   Unified   Code   of
33    Corrections, except that the "presentencing hearing" referred
34    to  in  that  Section  shall  be  the  sentencing hearing for
 
                            -39-           LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    purposes of this Section.   The  parent,  guardian  or  legal
 2    custodian  of  the  minor  may be ordered by the court to pay
 3    some or  all  of  the  restitution  on  the  minor's  behalf,
 4    pursuant  to  the  Parental Responsibility Law.   The State's
 5    Attorney is authorized to act on  behalf  of  any  victim  in
 6    seeking  restitution in proceedings under this Section, up to
 7    the maximum amount allowed  in  Section  5  of  the  Parental
 8    Responsibility Law.
 9        (5)  Any sentencing order where the minor is committed or
10    placed in accordance with Section 5-740 shall provide for the
11    parents  or guardian of the estate of the minor to pay to the
12    legal custodian or guardian of the person of the  minor  such
13    sums  as  are  determined by the custodian or guardian of the
14    person of the minor as necessary for the minor's needs.   The
15    payments  may  not exceed the maximum amounts provided for by
16    Section 9.1 of the Children and Family Services Act.
17        (6)  Whenever the sentencing order requires the minor  to
18    attend  school  or  participate in a program of training, the
19    truant officer or designated school official shall  regularly
20    report  to  the  court  if the minor is a chronic or habitual
21    truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code.
22        (7)  In no event shall a guilty minor be committed to the
23    Department of Corrections, Juvenile Division for a period  of
24    time  in  excess  of  that period for which an adult could be
25    committed for the same act.
26        (8)  A minor found to be guilty for reasons that  include
27    a  violation  of  Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961
28    shall be ordered to perform community service  for  not  less
29    than  30 and not more than 120 hours, if community service is
30    available in the jurisdiction.  The community  service  shall
31    include,  but  need not be limited to, the cleanup and repair
32    of the damage that was caused by  the  violation  or  similar
33    damage  to  property located in the municipality or county in
34    which the violation occurred.  The order may be  in  addition
 
                            -40-           LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    to any other order authorized by this Section.
 2        (8.5)  A  minor  found  to  be  guilty  for  reasons that
 3    include a violation of Section 3.02 or Section  3.03  of  the
 4    Humane  Care  for  Animals Act or paragraph (d) of subsection
 5    (1) of Section 21-1 of the Criminal Code  of  1961  shall  be
 6    ordered  to undergo medical or psychiatric treatment rendered
 7    by a psychiatrist or psychological treatment  rendered  by  a
 8    clinical  psychologist.   The order may be in addition to any
 9    other order authorized by this Section.
10        (9)  In addition to any other sentencing order, the court
11    shall order any minor found to be guilty  for  an  act  which
12    would  constitute,  predatory  criminal  sexual  assault of a
13    child, aggravated criminal sexual  assault,  criminal  sexual
14    assault, aggravated criminal sexual abuse, or criminal sexual
15    abuse  if committed by an adult to undergo medical testing to
16    determine   whether   the   defendant   has   any    sexually
17    transmissible  disease  including  a  test for infection with
18    human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or  any  other  identified
19    causative   agency   of  acquired  immunodeficiency  syndrome
20    (AIDS).   Any  medical  test  shall  be  performed  only   by
21    appropriately  licensed medical practitioners and may include
22    an analysis of any bodily fluids as well as an examination of
23    the minor's person. Except as otherwise provided by law,  the
24    results  of  the  test shall be kept strictly confidential by
25    all medical personnel involved in the  testing  and  must  be
26    personally delivered in a sealed envelope to the judge of the
27    court  in  which  the  sentencing  order  was entered for the
28    judge's inspection in camera.  Acting in accordance with  the
29    best  interests of the victim and the public, the judge shall
30    have the discretion to determine to whom the results  of  the
31    testing may be revealed.  The court shall notify the minor of
32    the  results  of  the  test  for  infection  with  the  human
33    immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV).   The court shall also notify
34    the victim if requested by the victim, and if the  victim  is
 
                            -41-           LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    under  the age of 15 and if requested by the victim's parents
 2    or legal  guardian,  the  court  shall  notify  the  victim's
 3    parents or the legal guardian, of the results of the test for
 4    infection  with  the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).  The
 5    court shall provide information on the  availability  of  HIV
 6    testing  and  counseling  at  the Department of Public Health
 7    facilities to all parties to whom the results of the  testing
 8    are  revealed.   The  court  shall order that the cost of any
 9    test shall be paid by the county and may be  taxed  as  costs
10    against the minor.
11        (10)  When  a  court finds a minor to be guilty the court
12    shall, before entering a sentencing order under this Section,
13    make a finding whether the offense committed either:  (a) was
14    related to or in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
15    organized gang or was motivated by the minor's membership  in
16    or  allegiance  to  an  organized  gang,  or  (b)  involved a
17    violation of subsection (a) of Section 12-7.1 of the Criminal
18    Code of 1961, a violation of any Section of Article 24 of the
19    Criminal Code of 1961,  or a violation of  any  statute  that
20    involved  the  wrongful  use  of  a  firearm.   If  the court
21    determines the question in the  affirmative,  and  the  court
22    does  not  commit the minor to the Department of Corrections,
23    Juvenile Division, the court shall order the minor to perform
24    community service for not less than 30 hours  nor  more  than
25    120  hours,  provided  that community service is available in
26    the jurisdiction and is funded and  approved  by  the  county
27    board  of  the  county  where the offense was committed.  The
28    community service shall include, but need not be limited  to,
29    the cleanup and repair of any damage caused by a violation of
30    Section  21-1.3  of  the  Criminal  Code  of 1961 and similar
31    damage to property located in the municipality or  county  in
32    which  the violation occurred.  When possible and reasonable,
33    the community service  shall  be  performed  in  the  minor's
34    neighborhood.   This  order shall be in addition to any other
 
                            -42-           LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    order authorized by this Section except for an order to place
 2    the minor in the custody of the  Department  of  Corrections,
 3    Juvenile   Division.   For  the  purposes  of  this  Section,
 4    "organized gang" has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 10
 5    of the Illinois Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus Prevention Act.

 7        (705 ILCS 405/5-715)
 8        Sec. 5-715.  Probation.
 9        (1)  The period of  probation  or  conditional  discharge
10    shall  not exceed 5 years or until the minor has attained the
11    age of 21 years, whichever is less,  except  as  provided  in
12    this  Section  for  a  minor who is found to be guilty for an
13    offense which is first degree murder, a Class X felony  or  a
14    forcible  felony.  The juvenile court may terminate probation
15    or conditional discharge and discharge the minor at any  time
16    if  warranted  by  the  conduct  of the minor and the ends of
17    justice;  provided, however, that the period of probation for
18    a minor who is found to be guilty for  an  offense  which  is
19    first  degree  murder, a Class X felony, or a forcible felony
20    shall be at least 5 years.
21        (2)  The court may as a  condition  of  probation  or  of
22    conditional discharge require that the minor:

32        services  rendered  by  a  clinical  social  worker,   or
33        treatment for drug addiction or alcoholism;

22             (p)  pay costs;

                            -44-           LRB9208026ARsbam05

 8        accompanying   the  minor,  and  advance  approval  by  a
 9        probation officer,  if  the  minor  has  been  placed  on

11        has been placed on conditional discharge;
12             (s)  refrain  from  having  any contact, directly or

20        presence of any illicit drug prohibited by  the  Cannabis
21        Control  Act  or  the Illinois Controlled Substances Act,
22        unless  prescribed  by  a  physician,  and  shall  submit
23        samples of his or her blood or urine or both for tests to
24        determine the presence of any illicit drug; or
25             (u)  comply with other conditions as may be  ordered
26        by the court.
27        (3)  The  court  may  as  a  condition of probation or of
28    conditional discharge require that a minor  found  guilty  on
29    any  alcohol,  cannabis,  or  controlled substance violation,
30    refrain from acquiring a driver's license during  the  period
31    of  probation  or  conditional discharge.  If the minor is in
32    possession of a permit or license, the court may require that
33    the minor refrain from driving or operating any motor vehicle
34    during the period  of  probation  or  conditional  discharge,
 
                            -45-           LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    except  as  may  be  necessary  in  the course of the minor's
 2    lawful employment.
 3        (3.5)  The court shall, as a condition of probation or of
 4    conditional discharge, require  that  a  minor  found  to  be
 5    guilty  and  placed  on  probation for reasons that include a
 6    violation of Section 3.02 or Section 3.03 of the Humane  Care
 7    for Animals Act or paragraph (d) of subsection (1) of Section
 8    21-1  of  the  Criminal  Code  of  1961  undergo  medical  or
 9    psychiatric   treatment   rendered   by   a  psychiatrist  or
10    psychological treatment rendered by a clinical psychologist.
11    The condition may be in addition to any other condition.
12        (4)  A minor on probation or conditional discharge  shall
13    be  given  a  certificate  setting  forth the conditions upon
14    which he or she is being released.
15        (5)  The court  shall  impose  upon  a  minor  placed  on
16    probation  or  conditional  discharge,  as a condition of the
17    probation or conditional discharge, a fee  of  $25  for  each
18    month  of  probation  or  conditional  discharge  supervision
19    ordered  by the court, unless after determining the inability
20    of the minor placed on probation or conditional discharge  to
21    pay  the  fee, the court assesses a lesser amount.  The court
22    may not impose the fee on a minor who is made a ward  of  the
23    State  under  this  Act while the minor is in placement.  The
24    fee shall be imposed  only  upon  a  minor  who  is  actively
25    supervised  by  the  probation and court services department.
26    The court may order the parent, guardian, or legal  custodian
27    of  the  minor  to  pay some or all of the fee on the minor's
28    behalf.
29        (6)  The General Assembly finds that in order to  protect
30    the   public,   the   juvenile  justice  system  must  compel
31    compliance with the conditions of probation by responding  to
32    violations  with  swift,  certain,  and  fair punishments and
33    intermediate sanctions.  The  Chief  Judge  of  each  circuit
34    shall  adopt  a  system of structured, intermediate sanctions
 
                            -46-           LRB9208026ARsbam05
 1    for violations of the terms and conditions of a  sentence  of
 2    supervision,  probation  or conditional discharge, under this
 3    Act.
 4        The court shall provide as a condition of  a  disposition
 5    of probation, conditional discharge, or supervision, that the
 6    probation  agency  may  invoke  any sanction from the list of
 7    intermediate sanctions adopted by  the  chief  judge  of  the
 8    circuit  court  for violations of the terms and conditions of
 9    the  sentence  of  probation,   conditional   discharge,   or
10    supervision,  subject  to  the provisions of Section 5-720 of
11    this Act.
