17    fingerprints and descriptions for minors arrested for Class A
18    or  B  misdemeanors.   Moving or nonmoving traffic violations

20    for  violations  of  Chapter  4, Section 11-204.1, or Section
21    11-501 of that Code.  In addition, conservation offenses,  as
22    defined in the Supreme Court Rule 501(c), that are classified

 4    municipal  ordinance violation, charged with a violation of a
 5    municipal ordinance or a felony or misdemeanor, is  acquitted
 6    or released without being convicted, whether the acquittal or
 7    release  occurred  before, on, or after the effective date of
 8    this amendatory Act of 1991, the Chief Judge of  the  circuit
 9    wherein  the  charge  was  brought, any judge of that circuit
10    designated by the Chief Judge, or in counties  of  less  than

25    however, that result in a disposition of supervision for  any
26    offense  shall  not  be  expunged  from  the  records  of the

 4    entered  nunc  pro  tunc  by  the  chief judge to correct the
 5    arrest record, conviction record, if any,  and  all  official
 6    records  of  the  arresting  authority, the Department, other
 7    criminal justice agencies,  the  prosecutor,  and  the  trial
 8    court  concerning  such  arrest, if any, by removing his name
 9    from all such records  in  connection  with  the  arrest  and

30    specifically authorizes expungement, he  may,  upon  verified
31    petition  to  the chief judge of the circuit where the person
32    had been convicted, any judge of the  circuit  designated  by

34    inhabitants, the presiding trial  judge  at  the  defendant's

29    court  order  entered to seal the records of the clerk of the
30    circuit court in connection with the proceedings of the trial
31    court concerning that offense.  However, the records  of  the
32    arresting  authority  and  the  Department  of  State  Police
33    concerning  the offense shall not be sealed.  The court, upon
34    good cause shown, shall make the records of the clerk of  the

 1    circuit court in connection with the proceedings of the trial
 2    court concerning the offense available for public inspection.
 3        (c-6)  If  a conviction or sentence has been set aside on
 4    direct  review  or  on  collateral  attack  and   the   court
 5    determines   by   clear  and  convincing  evidence  that  the
 6    defendant was factually innocent of  the  charge,  the  court
 7    shall  enter  an  expungement order as provided in subsection
 8    (b) of Section 5-5-4 of the Unified Code of Corrections.
 9        (d)  Notice of the petition for subsections (a), (b), and
10    (c) shall be served upon the State's Attorney  or  prosecutor

12    Department  of  State  Police,  the  arresting agency and the
13    chief legal officer of the unit of local government affecting
14    the arrest.  Unless the State's Attorney or  prosecutor,  the
15    Department  of  State  Police,  the  arresting agency or such
16    chief legal officer objects to the petition  within  30  days
17    from  the  date of the notice, the court shall enter an order
18    granting or denying the petition.  The  clerk  of  the  court
19    shall  promptly  mail  a copy of the order to the person, the
20    arresting agency, the prosecutor,  the  Department  of  State
21    Police  and  such  other  criminal justice agencies as may be
22    ordered by the judge.
23        (e)  Nothing herein shall prevent the Department of State
24    Police from maintaining all records  of  any  person  who  is
25    admitted  to  probation  upon  terms  and  conditions and who
26    fulfills those terms and conditions pursuant to Section 10 of
27    the  Cannabis  Control  Act,  Section  410  of  the  Illinois
28    Controlled Substances Act, Section  12-4.3  of  the  Criminal

30    Other Drug Dependency Act, Section 40-10  of  the  Alcoholism
31    and Other Drug Abuse and Dependency Act, or Section 10 of the
32    Steroid Control Act.
33        (f)  No  court  order  issued pursuant to the expungement
34    provisions of this Section shall become final for purposes of
 
                            -7-            LRB9204051RCcdam03
 1    appeal  until  30  days  after  notice  is  received  by  the
 2    Department.  Any court order contrary to  the  provisions  of
 3    this Section is void.
 4        (g)  Except  as otherwise provided in subsection (c-5) of
 5    this Section, the  court  shall  not  order  the  sealing  or
 6    expungement  of the arrest records and records of the circuit
 7    court  clerk  of  any  person  granted  supervision  for   or
 8    convicted  of  any  sexual  offense committed against a minor
 9    under 18 years of age.  For the  purposes  of  this  Section,
10    "sexual  offense  committed  against a minor" includes but is
11    not limited to the offenses of  indecent  solicitation  of  a

16        Section  10.  The Unified Code of Corrections is  amended
17    by changing Section 5-5-4 as follows:

18        (730 ILCS 5/5-5-4) (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-5-4)
19        Sec. 5-5-4. Resentences.
20        (a)  Where a conviction or sentence has been set aside on
21    direct  review  or  on collateral attack, the court shall not
22    impose a new sentence for the same offense or for a different
23    offense based on the same conduct which is more  severe  than
24    the  prior  sentence  less  the portion of the prior sentence
25    previously satisfied unless the more severe sentence is based
26    upon conduct on the part of the defendant occurring after the
27    original sentencing. If a sentence is vacated on appeal or on
28    collateral attack due to the failure of the trier of fact  at
29    trial to determine beyond a reasonable doubt the existence of
30    a  fact (other than a prior conviction) necessary to increase
31    the punishment for the offense beyond the  statutory  maximum
32    otherwise   applicable,   either   the   defendant   may   be
 
                            -8-            LRB9204051RCcdam03
 1    re-sentenced  to  a  term within the range otherwise provided
 2    or, if the State files notice of its intention to again  seek
 3    the  extended sentence, the defendant shall be afforded a new
 4    trial.
 5        (b)  If a conviction or sentence has been  set  aside  on
 6    direct   review   or  on  collateral  attack  and  the  court
 7    determines  by  clear  and  convincing  evidence   that   the
 8    defendant  was  factually  innocent  of the charge, the court
 9    shall enter an order expunging the record of arrest from  the
10    official  records  of  the arresting authority and order that
11    the records of the clerk of the circuit court and  Department
12    of  State  Police  be sealed until further order of the court
13    upon good cause shown or as otherwise  provided  herein,  and
14    the name of the defendant obliterated from the official index
15    requested to be kept by the circuit court clerk under Section
16    16  of the Clerks of Courts Act in connection with the arrest
17    and conviction for the offense but the order shall not affect
18    any index issued by the circuit court clerk before the  entry
19    of the order.
20        All  records sealed by the Department of State Police may
21    be disseminated by the Department only as required by law  or
22    to  the  arresting authority, the State's Attorney, the court
23    upon a later arrest for the same or similar offense,  or  for
24    the  purpose  of  sentencing  for any subsequent felony. Upon
25    conviction for any  subsequent  offense,  the  Department  of
26    Corrections  shall  have  access to all sealed records of the
27    Department pertaining to that individual.
28        Upon entry of the order of expungement, the clerk of  the
29    circuit  court shall promptly mail a copy of the order to the
30    person whose records were expunged and sealed.
31    (Source: P.A. 91-953, eff. 2-23-01.)

32        Section 99.  Effective date.  This Act takes effect  upon
33    becoming law.".
