Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. Provides that, if a minor violates the provisions prohibiting minors from possessing any cigars, cigarettes, smokeless tobacco, or tobacco in any of its forms, the court may in its discretion, and upon recommendation by the State's Attorney, order the minor and his or her parents or legal guardian to attend a smoker's education or youth diversion program if that program is available in the jurisdiction where the offender resides. Provides that attendance at a smoker's education or youth diversion program shall be time-credited against any community service time imposed for a violation of the provision prohibiting tobacco possession by a minor. Imposes several penalties for a violation of the provision prohibiting tobacco possession by a minor. Amends the Sale of Tobacco to Minors Act. Changes the short title of the Act to the Prevention of Tobacco Use by Minors Act. Prohibits the sale to and possession of tobacco by minors (instead of the sale of tobacco to minors). Provides that it is a petty offense for a minor under 16 years of age to sell any cigar, cigarette, smokeless tobacco, or tobacco in any of its forms at a retail establishment selling tobacco products. Provides that it is a petty offense for a minor under 18 years of age to possess any cigar, cigarette, smokeless tobacco, or tobacco in any of its forms. Amends other Acts to change references to the short title of the Prevention of Tobacco Use by Minors Act. Makes other changes. Effective immediately.
