09900SB1560sam001- 2 -LRB099 10707 RLC 31663 a

1        delinquent for an offense which is first degree murder,
2        a Class X felony, or a forcible felony shall be placed

11        amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly and before
12        January 1, 2017, placed in the guardianship of the
13        Department of Children and Family Services, but only if
14        the delinquent minor is under 16 years of age or,
15        pursuant to Article II of this Act, a minor for whom an
16        independent basis of abuse, neglect, or dependency

26        adjudication of delinquency;

 

 

09900SB1560sam001- 3 -LRB099 10707 RLC 31663 a

1            (v) placed in detention for a period not to exceed
2        30 days, either as the exclusive order of disposition

4        order of disposition issued under this paragraph,
5        provided that any such detention shall be in a juvenile
6        detention home and the minor so detained shall be 10
7        years of age or older. However, the 30-day limitation
8        may be extended by further order of the court for a

13        detention for time spent in detention under Sections
14        5-501, 5-601, 5-710, or 5-720 of this Article as a
15        result of the offense for which the sentencing order
16        was imposed. The court may grant credit on a sentencing
17        order of detention entered under a violation of
18        probation or violation of conditional discharge under
19        Section 5-720 of this Article for time spent in
20        detention before the filing of the petition alleging
21        the violation. A minor shall not be deprived of credit
22        for time spent in detention before the filing of a
23        violation of probation or conditional discharge
24        alleging the same or related act or acts. The
25        limitation that the minor shall only be placed in a
26        juvenile detention home does not apply as follows:

15    imprisonment in the penitentiary system of the Department
16    of Corrections incarceration is permitted by law for adults
17    found guilty of the offense for which the minor was
18    adjudicated delinquent. The court shall include in the

21The parent, guardian or legal custodian of the minor may be
22ordered by the court to pay some or all of the restitution on
23the minor's behalf, pursuant to the Parental Responsibility
24Law. The State's Attorney is authorized to act on behalf of any
25victim in seeking restitution in proceedings under this

5committed by an adult to undergo medical testing to determine
6whether the defendant has any sexually transmissible disease

9acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Any medical test
10shall be performed only by appropriately licensed medical
11practitioners and may include an analysis of any bodily fluids
12as well as an examination of the minor's person. Except as
13otherwise provided by law, the results of the test shall be
14kept strictly confidential by all medical personnel involved in
15the testing and must be personally delivered in a sealed
16envelope to the judge of the court in which the sentencing
17order was entered for the judge's inspection in camera. Acting
18in accordance with the best interests of the victim and the
19public, the judge shall have the discretion to determine to
20whom the results of the testing may be revealed. The court
21shall notify the minor of the results of the test for infection
22with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The court shall
23also notify the victim if requested by the victim, and if the
24victim is under the age of 15 and if requested by the victim's
25parents or legal guardian, the court shall notify the victim's
26parents or the legal guardian, of the results of the test for

 

 

09900SB1560sam001- 10 -LRB099 10707 RLC 31663 a

1infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The
2court shall provide information on the availability of HIV

4facilities to all parties to whom the results of the testing
5are revealed. The court shall order that the cost of any test
6shall be paid by the county and may be taxed as costs against
7the minor.
8    (10) When a court finds a minor to be guilty the court
9shall, before entering a sentencing order under this Section,
10make a finding whether the offense committed either: (a) was
11related to or in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
12organized gang or was motivated by the minor's membership in or
13allegiance to an organized gang, or (b) involved a violation of
14subsection (a) of Section 12-7.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961
15or the Criminal Code of 2012, a violation of any Section of
16Article 24 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of
172012, or a violation of any statute that involved the wrongful
18use of a firearm. If the court determines the question in the
19affirmative, and the court does not commit the minor to the
20Department of Juvenile Justice, the court shall order the minor
21to perform community service for not less than 30 hours nor
22more than 120 hours, provided that community service is
23available in the jurisdiction and is funded and approved by the
24county board of the county where the offense was committed. The
25community service shall include, but need not be limited to,
26the cleanup and repair of any damage caused by a violation of

 

 

09900SB1560sam001- 11 -LRB099 10707 RLC 31663 a

1Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal
2Code of 2012 and similar damage to property located in the
3municipality or county in which the violation occurred. When
4possible and reasonable, the community service shall be
5performed in the minor's neighborhood. This order shall be in
6addition to any other order authorized by this Section except
7for an order to place the minor in the custody of the
8Department of Juvenile Justice. For the purposes of this
9Section, "organized gang" has the meaning ascribed to it in
10Section 10 of the Illinois Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus
11Prevention Act.
12    (11) If the court determines that the offense was committed
13in furtherance of the criminal activities of an organized gang,
14as provided in subsection (10), and that the offense involved
15the operation or use of a motor vehicle or the use of a
16driver's license or permit, the court shall notify the
17Secretary of State of that determination and of the period for
18which the minor shall be denied driving privileges. If, at the
19time of the determination, the minor does not hold a driver's
20license or permit, the court shall provide that the minor shall
21not be issued a driver's license or permit until his or her
2218th birthday. If the minor holds a driver's license or permit
23at the time of the determination, the court shall provide that
24the minor's driver's license or permit shall be revoked until
25his or her 21st birthday, or until a later date or occurrence
26determined by the court. If the minor holds a driver's license

 

 

09900SB1560sam001- 12 -LRB099 10707 RLC 31663 a

1at the time of the determination, the court may direct the
2Secretary of State to issue the minor a judicial driving
3permit, also known as a JDP. The JDP shall be subject to the
4same terms as a JDP issued under Section 6-206.1 of the
5Illinois Vehicle Code, except that the court may direct that
6the JDP be effective immediately.
7    (12) If a minor is found to be guilty of a violation of
8subsection (a-7) of Section 1 of the Prevention of Tobacco Use
9by Minors Act, the court may, in its discretion, and upon
10recommendation by the State's Attorney, order that minor and
11his or her parents or legal guardian to attend a smoker's
12education or youth diversion program as defined in that Act if
13that program is available in the jurisdiction where the
14offender resides. Attendance at a smoker's education or youth
15diversion program shall be time-credited against any community
16service time imposed for any first violation of subsection
17(a-7) of Section 1 of that Act. In addition to any other
18penalty that the court may impose for a violation of subsection
19(a-7) of Section 1 of that Act, the court, upon request by the
20State's Attorney, may in its discretion require the offender to
21remit a fee for his or her attendance at a smoker's education
22or youth diversion program.
23    For purposes of this Section, "smoker's education program"
24or "youth diversion program" includes, but is not limited to, a
25seminar designed to educate a person on the physical and
26psychological effects of smoking tobacco products and the

1health consequences of smoking tobacco products that can be
2conducted with a locality's youth diversion program.
3    In addition to any other penalty that the court may impose
4under this subsection (12):
5        (a) If a minor violates subsection (a-7) of Section 1
6    of the Prevention of Tobacco Use by Minors Act, the court
7    may impose a sentence of 15 hours of community service or a
8    fine of $25 for a first violation.
9        (b) A second violation by a minor of subsection (a-7)
10    of Section 1 of that Act that occurs within 12 months after
11    the first violation is punishable by a fine of $50 and 25
12    hours of community service.
13        (c) A third or subsequent violation by a minor of
14    subsection (a-7) of Section 1 of that Act that occurs
15    within 12 months after the first violation is punishable by
16    a $100 fine and 30 hours of community service.
17        (d) Any second or subsequent violation not within the
18    12-month time period after the first violation is
19    punishable as provided for a first violation.

09900SB1560sam001- 14 -LRB099 10707 RLC 31663 a

1when any delinquent has been adjudged a ward of the court under
2this Act, the court may commit him or her to the Department of
3Juvenile Justice, if it finds that (a) his or her parents,
4guardian or legal custodian are unfit or are unable, for some
5reason other than financial circumstances alone, to care for,
6protect, train or discipline the minor, or are unwilling to do
7so, and the best interests of the minor and the public will not
8be served by placement under Section 5-740, or it is necessary
9to ensure the protection of the public from the consequences of
10criminal activity of the delinquent; and (b) commitment to the
11Department of Juvenile Justice is the least restrictive
12alternative based on evidence that efforts were made to locate
13less restrictive alternatives to secure confinement and the
14reasons why efforts were unsuccessful in locating a less
15restrictive alternative to secure confinement. Before the
16court commits a minor to the Department of Juvenile Justice, it
17shall make a finding that secure confinement is necessary,
18following a review of the following individualized factors:
19        (A) Age of the minor.
20        (B) Criminal background of the minor.
21        (C) Review of results of any assessments of the minor,
22    including child centered assessments such as the CANS.

25    disability, and if so what services were provided as well
26    as any disciplinary incidents at school.

3    health issue and if so what services were provided and
4    whether the minor was compliant with services.
5        (F) Community based services that have been provided to
6    the minor, and whether the minor was compliant with the
7    services, and the reason the services were unsuccessful.
8        (G) Services within the Department of Juvenile Justice
9    that will meet the individualized needs of the minor.
10    (1.5) Before the court commits a minor to the Department of
11Juvenile Justice, the court must find reasonable efforts have
12been made to prevent or eliminate the need for the minor to be
13removed from the home, or reasonable efforts cannot, at this
14time, for good cause, prevent or eliminate the need for
15removal, and removal from home is in the best interests of the
16minor, the minor's family, and the public.
17    (2) When a minor of the age of at least 13 years is
18adjudged delinquent for the offense of first degree murder, the
19court shall declare the minor a ward of the court and order the
20minor committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice until the
21minor's 21st birthday, without the possibility of aftercare
22release, furlough, or non-emergency authorized absence for a

24Department of Juvenile Justice, except that the time that a
25minor spent in custody for the instant offense before being
26committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice shall be

 

 

09900SB1560sam001- 16 -LRB099 10707 RLC 31663 a

1considered as time credited towards that 5 year period. Upon
2release from a Department facility, a minor adjudged delinquent
3for first degree murder shall be placed on aftercare release
4until the age of 21, unless sooner discharged from aftercare
5release or custodianship is otherwise terminated in accordance
6with this Act or as otherwise provided for by law. Nothing in
7this subsection (2) shall preclude the State's Attorney from
8seeking to prosecute a minor as an adult as an alternative to
9proceeding under this Act.
10    (3) Except as provided in subsection (2), the commitment of
11a delinquent to the Department of Juvenile Justice shall be for
12an indeterminate term which shall automatically terminate upon
13the delinquent attaining the age of 21 years or upon completion
14of that period for which an adult could be committed for the
15same act, whichever occurs sooner, unless the delinquent is
16sooner discharged from aftercare release or custodianship is
17otherwise terminated in accordance with this Act or as
18otherwise provided for by law.
19    (3.5) Every delinquent minor committed to the Department of
20Juvenile Justice under this Act shall be eligible for aftercare

24Department of Juvenile Justice, under the direction of the
25Director. Unless sooner discharged, the Department of Juvenile
26Justice shall discharge a minor from aftercare release upon

9    Department facility, if the minor was committed for a Class
10    3 felony or lesser offense.
11    (4) When the court commits a minor to the Department of
12Juvenile Justice, it shall order him or her conveyed forthwith
13to the appropriate reception station or other place designated
14by the Department of Juvenile Justice, and shall appoint the
15Director of Juvenile Justice legal custodian of the minor. The
16clerk of the court shall issue to the Director of Juvenile
17Justice a certified copy of the order, which constitutes proof
18of the Director's authority. No other process need issue to
19warrant the keeping of the minor.
20    (5) If a minor is committed to the Department of Juvenile
21Justice, the clerk of the court shall forward to the
22Department:
23        (a) the sentencing order disposition ordered;
