6     Section 15. The Unified Code of Corrections is amended by
7 changing Section 5-6-1 as follows:
 
8     (730 ILCS 5/5-6-1)  (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-6-1)
9     Sec. 5-6-1. Sentences of Probation and of Conditional
10 Discharge and Disposition of Supervision. The General Assembly
11 finds that in order to protect the public, the criminal justice
12 system must compel compliance with the conditions of probation
13 by responding to violations with swift, certain and fair
14 punishments and intermediate sanctions. The Chief Judge of each
15 circuit shall adopt a system of structured, intermediate
16 sanctions for violations of the terms and conditions of a
17 sentence of probation, conditional discharge or disposition of
18 supervision.
19     (a) Except where specifically prohibited by other
20 provisions of this Code, the court shall impose a sentence of
21 probation or conditional discharge upon an offender unless,
22 having regard to the nature and circumstance of the offense,
23 and to the history, character and condition of the offender,
24 the court is of the opinion that:

 

 

HB0994 - 4 - LRB095 06161 DRH 26255 b

1         (1) his imprisonment or periodic imprisonment is
2     necessary for the protection of the public; or
3         (2) probation or conditional discharge would deprecate
4     the seriousness of the offender's conduct and would be
5     inconsistent with the ends of justice; or
6         (3) a combination of imprisonment with concurrent or
7     consecutive probation when an offender has been admitted
8     into a drug court program under Section 20 of the Drug
9     Court Treatment Act is necessary for the protection of the
10     public and for the rehabilitation of the offender.
11     The court shall impose as a condition of a sentence of
12 probation, conditional discharge, or supervision, that the
13 probation agency may invoke any sanction from the list of
14 intermediate sanctions adopted by the chief judge of the
15 circuit court for violations of the terms and conditions of the
16 sentence of probation, conditional discharge, or supervision,
17 subject to the provisions of Section 5-6-4 of this Act.
18     (b) The court may impose a sentence of conditional
19 discharge for an offense if the court is of the opinion that
20 neither a sentence of imprisonment nor of periodic imprisonment
21 nor of probation supervision is appropriate.
22     (b-1) Subsections (a) and (b) of this Section do not apply
23 to a defendant charged with a misdemeanor or felony under the
24 Illinois Vehicle Code or reckless homicide under Section 9-3 of
25 the Criminal Code of 1961 if the defendant within the past 12
26 months has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor

 

 

HB0994 - 5 - LRB095 06161 DRH 26255 b

1 or felony under the Illinois Vehicle Code or reckless homicide
2 under Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961.
3     (c) The court may, upon a plea of guilty or a stipulation
4 by the defendant of the facts supporting the charge or a
5 finding of guilt, defer further proceedings and the imposition
6 of a sentence, and enter an order for supervision of the
7 defendant, if the defendant is not charged with: (i) a Class A
8 misdemeanor, as defined by the following provisions of the
9 Criminal Code of 1961: Sections 11-9.1; 12-3.2; 12-15; 26-5;
10 31-1; 31-6; 31-7; subsections (b) and (c) of Section 21-1;
11 paragraph (1) through (5), (8), (10), and (11) of subsection
12 (a) of Section 24-1; (ii) a Class A misdemeanor violation of
13 Section 3.01, 3.03-1, or 4.01 of the Humane Care for Animals
14 Act; or (iii) felony. If the defendant is not barred from
15 receiving an order for supervision as provided in this
16 subsection, the court may enter an order for supervision after
17 considering the circumstances of the offense, and the history,
18 character and condition of the offender, if the court is of the
19 opinion that:
20         (1) the offender is not likely to commit further
21     crimes;
22         (2) the defendant and the public would be best served
23     if the defendant were not to receive a criminal record; and
24         (3) in the best interests of justice an order of
25     supervision is more appropriate than a sentence otherwise
26     permitted under this Code.
