 9        (1) of this subsection.
10        (b) (1)  It  shall  be an affirmative defense to a charge

30        depiction  by  computer  in  which  child  pornography is
31        depicted shall raise a rebuttable  presumption  that  the

33        disseminate them.
34             (5)  The charge of child pornography does not  apply

 7        able to terminate his or her possession.

23                  (iii)  On  September  22,   1998,   the   Third
24             District  Appellate  Court  in People v. Dainty, 701
25             N.E. 2d 118, ruled that Public Act  88-680  violates
26             the   single   subject   clause   of   the  Illinois
27             Constitution (Article IV, Section  8  (d))  and  was
28             unconstitutional  in  its  entirety.  As of the time
29             this amendatory Act of 1999 was prepared, People  v.
30             Dainty was still subject to appeal.
31                  (iv)  Child  pornography  is a vital concern to
32             the people of this State and the validity of  future
33             prosecutions  under the child pornography statute of
34             the Criminal Code of 1961 is in grave doubt.

 1             (2)  It is the purpose of  this  amendatory  Act  of
 2        1999  to  prevent  or  minimize  any problems relating to
 3        prosecutions for child pornography that may  result  from
 4        challenges  to  the constitutional validity of Public Act
 5        88-680 by  re-enacting  the  Section  relating  to  child
 6        pornography that was included in Public Act 88-680.
 7             (3)  This  amendatory  Act of 1999 re-enacts Section
 8        11-20.1 of the Criminal Code of  1961,  as  it  has  been
 9        amended.   This  re-enactment  is  intended to remove any
10        question as to the validity or content of  that  Section;
11        it is not intended to supersede any other Public Act that
12        amends  the  text  of  the  Section  as set forth in this
13        amendatory  Act  of  1999.   The  material  is  shown  as
14        existing text  (i.e., without underscoring)  because,  as
15        of  the  time  this  amendatory Act of 1999 was prepared,
16        People v. Dainty was subject to appeal  to  the  Illinois
17        Supreme Court.

19        of  Section 11-20.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961 relating
20        to child pornography  that  was  amended  by  Public  Act
21        88-680  is  not  intended, and shall not be construed, to
22        imply that Public Act 88-680 is invalid or  to  limit  or
23        impair   any  legal  argument  concerning  whether  those
24        provisions were substantially re-enacted by other  Public
25        Acts.

26        (b-5)  The  incarceration  of  a  person   in   a   penal
27    institution   who   transmits  a  threat  is  not  a  bar  to

HB4081 Enrolled            -14-               LRB9212174RCsbA
 1    if:

 3        by a court or fails to commit an act which was ordered by
 4        a court in violation of:

15             United States territory,
16                  (iii)  any    other   remedy   when   the   act
17             constitutes a crime against the protected parties as
18             the term protected parties  is  defined  in  Section
19             112A-4  of  the  Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963;
20             and
21             (2)  Such violation occurs after  the  offender  has
22        been served notice of the contents of the order, pursuant

24        substantially similar statute of another state, tribe  or
25        United States territory, or otherwise has acquired actual

27        An  order  of  protection  issued  by  a state, tribal or
28    territorial court related  to  domestic  or  family  violence
29    shall  be  deemed valid if the issuing court had jurisdiction
30    over the parties and matter under the law of the state, tribe
31    or territory.  There shall be a presumption of validity where
32    an order is certified and appears authentic on its face.
33        (a-5)  Failure   to   provide   reasonable   notice   and
34    opportunity to be heard shall be an  affirmative  defense  to

 7    diminish the inherent authority  of  the  courts  to  enforce
 8    their  lawful  orders  through  civil  or  criminal  contempt
 9    proceedings.
10        (d)  Violation of an order of protection under subsection
11    (a) of this Section is a Class A misdemeanor. Violation of an
12    order of protection under subsection (a) of this Section is a

 3    shall impose a minimum penalty of 24 hours  imprisonment  for
 4    defendant's  second  or  subsequent violation of any order of
 5    protection;  unless  the  court  explicitly  finds  that   an
 6    increased  penalty  or  such  period of imprisonment would be
 7    manifestly unjust.  In addition to any other  penalties,  the
 8    court  may  order  the  defendant to pay a fine as authorized
 9    under Section 5-9-1 of the Unified Code of Corrections or  to
10    make  restitution  to  the  victim under Section 5-5-6 of the
11    Unified Code  of  Corrections.   In  addition  to  any  other
12    penalties,  including those imposed by Section 5-9-1.5 of the
13    Unified Code  of  Corrections,  the  court  shall  impose  an
14    additional  fine  of $20 as authorized by Section 5-9-1.11 of
15    the Unified Code of Corrections upon any person convicted  of
16    or  placed  on  supervision  for a violation of this Section.

29        (a)  A person responsible for a child's  welfare  commits
30    the  offense  of  permitting sexual abuse of a child if he or
31    she has actual knowledge of and  permits  an  act  of  sexual
32    abuse  upon  the  child,  or  permits  the child to engage in
 
HB4081 Enrolled            -17-               LRB9212174RCsbA
 1    prostitution as defined in Section 11-14 of the Criminal Code
 2    of 1961.

 4        "Child" means a minor under the age of 17 years.
 5        "Person responsible for the child's  welfare"  means  the
 6    child's  parent, step-parent, legal guardian, or other person
 7    having custody of a child, who is responsible for the child's
 8    care at the time of the alleged sexual abuse.
 9        "Sexual abuse" includes criminal sexual abuse or criminal
10    sexual assault as defined in Section 12-13,  12-14,  12-14.1,

12        "Prostitution"  means  prostitution as defined in Section
13    11-14 of the Criminal Code of 1961.
14        "Actual knowledge" includes credible allegations made  by
15    the child.
16        (c)  This  Section does not apply to a person responsible
17    for the child's welfare who, having reason  to  believe  that
18    sexual  abuse  has  occurred,  makes  timely  and  reasonable
19    efforts  to  stop  the  sexual  abuse by reporting the sexual
20    abuse in conformance with  the  Abused  and  Neglected  Child
21    Reporting  Act or by reporting the sexual abuse, or causing a
22    report to be made, to medical or law enforcement  authorities
23    or  anyone  who is a mandated reporter under Section 4 of the
24    Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act.
25        (d)  Whenever a law enforcement  officer  has  reason  to
26    believe  that  the  child  or  the person responsible for the
27    child's welfare has been abused  by  a  family  or  household
28    member  as  defined  by the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of
29    1986, the officer shall immediately use all reasonable  means

 1    sexually  abused  by  a  family  or  household  member.    In
 2    considering  appropriate  available  remedies,  it  shall  be
 3    presumed that awarding physical care or custody to the abuser
 4    is not in the child's best interest.
 5        (f)  A  person  may  not  be  charged with the offense of
 6    permitting sexual abuse of a child under this  Section  until
 7    the person who committed the offense is charged with criminal
