12    charged with first degree murder, aggravated criminal  sexual
13    assault,  aggravated  battery  with  a firearm committed in a
14    school, on the real  property  comprising  a  school,  within
15    1,000  feet  of  the  real property comprising a school, at a
16    school related activity, or on, boarding, or  departing  from
17    any  conveyance  owned,  leased, or contracted by a school or
18    school district to transport students to or from school or  a
19    school related activity regardless of the time of day or time
20    of  year  that  the offense was committed, armed robbery when

 1    firearm.
 2        These  charges  and  all other charges arising out of the

 7    secondary school, community college, college, or university.
 8        "School related activity"  means  any  sporting,  social,

12        (b) (i)  If  before  trial  or  plea  an  information  or
13    indictment is filed that does not charge an offense specified
14    in  paragraph (a) of this subsection (1) the State's Attorney
15    may proceed on any lesser charge  or  charges,  but  only  in
16    Juvenile  Court  under  the  provisions of this Article.  The
17    State's Attorney may proceed under the Criminal Code of  1961
18    on  a  lesser  charge  if  before  trial  the minor defendant
19    knowingly and with advice of counsel waives, in writing,  his
20    or her right to have the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
21        (ii)  If   before   trial   or  plea  an  information  or
22    indictment  is  filed  that  includes  one  or  more  charges
23    specified  in  paragraph  (a)  of  this  subsection  (1)  and
24    additional charges that are not specified in that  paragraph,
25    all  of the charges arising out of the same incident shall be
26    prosecuted under the Criminal Code of 1961.
27        (c) (i)  If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of
28    any offense covered by paragraph (a) of this subsection  (1),
29    then, in sentencing the minor, the court shall have available
30    any  or  all  dispositions  prescribed for that offense under
31    Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
32        (ii)  If after trial or plea the  court  finds  that  the
33    minor  committed  an  offense not covered by paragraph (a) of
34    this subsection (1), that finding shall  not  invalidate  the
 
                            -3-              LRB9213222RCsbam
 1    verdict  or  the  prosecution of the minor under the criminal
 2    laws of the State;  however,  unless  the  State  requests  a
 3    hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
 4    V  of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
 5    under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article.  To request a
 6    hearing, the State must file a written motion within 10  days
 7    following  the entry of a finding or the return of a verdict.
 8    Reasonable notice of the motion shall be given to  the  minor
 9    or  his  or  her counsel. If the motion is made by the State,
10    the court shall conduct a hearing to determine if  the  minor
11    should  be  sentenced  under Chapter V of the Unified Code of
12    Corrections.  In making its determination,  the  court  shall
13    consider  among  other matters: (a) whether there is evidence
14    that  the  offense  was  committed  in  an   aggressive   and
15    premeditated  manner;  (b)  the  age  of  the  minor; (c) the

17    facilities  particularly  available  to the Juvenile Court or
18    the Department of Corrections,  Juvenile  Division,  for  the
19    treatment  and  rehabilitation  of the minor; (e) whether the
20    security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
21    the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f)  whether  the  minor
22    possessed  a  deadly weapon when committing the offense.  The
23    rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial.  If after
24    the  hearing  the  court  finds  that  the  minor  should  be
25    sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
26    then the court shall sentence the  minor  accordingly  having
27    available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
28        (2) (a)  The  definition  of  a  delinquent  minor  under
29    Section  5-120  of  this Article shall not apply to any minor

34    conveyance  owned,  leased  or  contracted  by  a  school  to
 
                            -4-              LRB9213222RCsbam
 1    transport  students  to  or  from  school or a school related
 2    activity, or residential property owned, operated or  managed
 3    by  a  public  housing  agency  or leased by a public housing
 4    agency  as  part  of  a  scattered   site   or   mixed-income
 5    development,  on  the  real  property  comprising any school,
 6    regardless of the time  of  day  or  the  time  of  year,  or
 7    residential  property  owned, operated or managed by a public
 8    housing agency or leased by a public housing agency  as  part
 9    of  a  scattered  site  or  mixed-income development, or on a
10    public way within 1,000 feet of the real property  comprising
11    any  school,  regardless  of  the  time of day or the time of
12    year, or residential property owned, operated or managed by a
13    public housing agency or leased by a public housing agency as
14    part of a scattered site or mixed-income development.  School
15    is defined, for the purposes of this Section, as  any  public
16    or private elementary or secondary school, community college,
17    college,  or university.  These charges and all other charges
18    arising out of the same incident shall  be  prosecuted  under
19    the criminal laws of this State.
20        (b) (i)  If  before  trial  or  plea  an  information  or
21    indictment is filed that does not charge an offense specified
22    in  paragraph (a) of this subsection (2) the State's Attorney
23    may proceed on any lesser charge  or  charges,  but  only  in
24    Juvenile  Court  under  the  provisions of this Article.  The
25    State's Attorney may proceed under the criminal laws of  this
26    State  on a lesser charge if before trial the minor defendant
27    knowingly and with advice of counsel waives, in writing,  his
28    or her right to have the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
29        (ii)  If   before   trial   or  plea  an  information  or
30    indictment  is  filed  that  includes  one  or  more  charges
31    specified  in  paragraph  (a)  of  this  subsection  (2)  and
32    additional charges that are not specified in that  paragraph,

 1        (c) (i)  If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of

 4    any  or  all  dispositions  prescribed for that offense under
 5    Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
 6        (ii)  If after trial or plea the  court  finds  that  the
 7    minor  committed  an  offense not covered by paragraph (a) of
 8    this subsection (2), that finding shall  not  invalidate  the
 9    verdict  or  the  prosecution of the minor under the criminal
10    laws of the State;  however,  unless  the  State  requests  a
11    hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
12    V  of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
13    under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article.  To request a
14    hearing, the State must file a written motion within 10  days
15    following  the entry of a finding or the return of a verdict.
16    Reasonable notice of the motion shall be given to  the  minor
17    or  his  or her counsel.  If the motion is made by the State,
18    the court shall conduct a hearing to determine if  the  minor
19    should  be  sentenced  under Chapter V of the Unified Code of
20    Corrections.  In making its determination,  the  court  shall
21    consider  among  other matters: (a) whether there is evidence
22    that  the  offense  was  committed  in  an   aggressive   and
23    premeditated  manner;  (b)  the  age  of  the  minor; (c) the
24    previous  history  of  the  minor;  (d)  whether  there   are
25    facilities  particularly  available  to the Juvenile Court or
26    the Department of Corrections,  Juvenile  Division,  for  the
27    treatment  and  rehabilitation  of the minor; (e) whether the
28    security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
29    the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f)  whether  the  minor
30    possessed  a  deadly weapon when committing the offense.  The
31    rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial.  If after
32    the  hearing  the  court  finds  that  the  minor  should  be
33    sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
34    then the court shall sentence the  minor  accordingly  having
 
                            -6-              LRB9213222RCsbam
 1    available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
 2        (3) (a)  The definition of delinquent minor under Section

 8    of day  or  the  time  of  year,  or  on  the  real  property
 9    comprising  any  school, regardless of the time of day or the

11    Section  as  any  public  or  private elementary or secondary
12    school, community college,  college,  or  university.   These
13    charges  and  all  other  charges  arising  out  of  the same
14    incident shall be prosecuted under the criminal laws of  this
15    State.
16        (b) (i)  If  before  trial  or  plea  an  information  or
17    indictment is filed that does not charge an offense specified
18    in  paragraph (a) of this subsection (3) the State's Attorney
19    may proceed on any lesser charge  or  charges,  but  only  in
20    Juvenile  Court  under  the  provisions of this Article.  The
21    State's Attorney may proceed under the criminal laws of  this
22    State  on a lesser charge if before trial the minor defendant
23    knowingly and with advice of counsel waives, in writing,  his
24    or her right to have the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
25        (ii)  If   before   trial   or  plea  an  information  or
26    indictment  is  filed  that  includes  one  or  more  charges
27    specified  in  paragraph  (a)  of  this  subsection  (3)  and
28    additional charges that are not specified in that  paragraph,
29    all  of the charges arising out of the same incident shall be
30    prosecuted under the criminal laws of this State.
31        (c) (i)  If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of
32    any offense covered by paragraph (a) of this subsection  (3),
33    then, in sentencing the minor, the court shall have available
34    any  or  all  dispositions  prescribed for that offense under
 
                            -7-              LRB9213222RCsbam
 1    Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
 2        (ii)  If after trial or plea the  court  finds  that  the
 3    minor  committed  an  offense not covered by paragraph (a) of
 4    this subsection (3), that finding shall  not  invalidate  the
 5    verdict  or  the  prosecution of the minor under the criminal
 6    laws of the State;  however,  unless  the  State  requests  a
 7    hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
 8    V  of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
 9    under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article.  To request a
10    hearing, the State must file a written motion within 10  days
11    following  the entry of a finding or the return of a verdict.
12    Reasonable notice of the motion shall be given to  the  minor
13    or  his  or her counsel.  If the motion is made by the State,
14    the court shall conduct a hearing to determine if  the  minor
15    should  be  sentenced  under Chapter V of the Unified Code of
16    Corrections.  In making its determination,  the  court  shall
17    consider  among  other matters: (a) whether there is evidence
18    that  the  offense  was  committed  in  an   aggressive   and
19    premeditated  manner;  (b)  the  age  of  the  minor; (c) the
20    previous  history  of  the  minor;  (d)  whether  there   are
21    facilities  particularly  available  to the Juvenile Court or
22    the Department of Corrections,  Juvenile  Division,  for  the
23    treatment  and  rehabilitation  of the minor; (e) whether the
24    security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
25    the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f)  whether  the  minor
26    possessed  a  deadly weapon when committing the offense.  The
27    rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial.  If after
28    the  hearing  the  court  finds  that  the  minor  should  be
29    sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
30    then the court shall sentence the  minor  accordingly  having
31    available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
32        (4) (a)  The definition of delinquent minor under Section
33    5-120 of this Article shall not apply to any minor who at the
34    time  of  an  offense was at least 13 years of age and who is
 
                            -8-              LRB9213222RCsbam
 1    charged with first degree murder committed during the  course
 2    of either aggravated criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual
 3    assault,  or  aggravated kidnaping.  However, this subsection
 4    (4) does not include a minor charged with first degree murder
 5    based exclusively upon the accountability provisions  of  the
 6    Criminal Code of 1961.
 7        (b) (i)  If  before  trial  or  plea  an  information  or
 8    indictment  is filed that does not charge first degree murder
 9    committed during the course  of  aggravated  criminal  sexual
10    assault,  criminal  sexual  assault, or aggravated kidnaping,
11    the State's Attorney may proceed  on  any  lesser  charge  or
12    charges,  but  only in Juvenile Court under the provisions of
13    this Article.  The State's Attorney  may  proceed  under  the
14    criminal  laws  of  this  State  on a lesser charge if before
15    trial the  minor  defendant  knowingly  and  with  advice  of
16    counsel  waives,  in  writing,  his  or her right to have the
17    matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
18        (ii)  If  before  trial  or  plea   an   information   or
19    indictment   is  filed  that  includes  first  degree  murder
20    committed during the course  of  aggravated  criminal  sexual
21    assault,  criminal  sexual  assault, or aggravated kidnaping,
22    and additional charges that are not  specified  in  paragraph
23    (a) of this subsection, all of the charges arising out of the
24    same  incident shall be prosecuted under the criminal laws of
25    this State.
26        (c) (i)  If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of
27    first degree murder committed during the course of aggravated
28    criminal  sexual  assault,  criminal   sexual   assault,   or
29    aggravated  kidnaping,  in  sentencing  the  minor, the court
30    shall have available any or all dispositions  prescribed  for
31    that  offense  under  Chapter  V   of  the  Unified  Code  of
32    Corrections.
33        (ii)  If  the  minor  was  not yet 15 years of age at the
34    time of the offense, and if after trial  or  plea  the  court
 
                            -9-              LRB9213222RCsbam
 1    finds  that  the  minor committed an offense other than first
 2    degree  murder  committed  during  the   course   of   either
 3    aggravated  criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual assault,
 4    or aggravated kidnapping, the finding  shall  not  invalidate
 5    the  verdict  or  the  prosecution  of  the  minor  under the
 6    criminal  laws  of  the  State;  however,  unless  the  State
 7    requests a hearing for the purpose of  sentencing  the  minor
 8    under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court
 9    must  proceed under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article.
10    To request a hearing, the State must file  a  written  motion
11    within 10 days following the entry of a finding or the return
12    of a verdict.  Reasonable notice of the motion shall be given
13    to the minor or his or her counsel.  If the motion is made by
14    the  State,  the  court  shall conduct a hearing to determine
15    whether the minor should be sentenced under Chapter V of  the
16    Unified  Code  of  Corrections.  In making its determination,
17    the court shall consider among other  matters:   (a)  whether
18    there  is  evidence  that  the  offense  was  committed in an
19    aggressive and premeditated  manner;   (b)  the  age  of  the
20    minor;   (c)  the  previous  delinquent history of the minor;
21    (d) whether there are facilities  particularly  available  to
22    the Juvenile Court or the Department of Corrections, Juvenile
23    Division,  for the treatment and rehabilitation of the minor;
24    (e) whether the best interest of the minor and  the  security
25    of  the  public  require  sentencing  under  Chapter V of the
26    Unified Code of  Corrections;   and  (f)  whether  the  minor
27    possessed  a  deadly weapon when committing the offense.  The
28    rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial.  If after
29    the  hearing  the  court  finds  that  the  minor  should  be
30    sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
31    then the court shall sentence the  minor  accordingly  having
32    available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
33        (5) (a)  The definition of delinquent minor under Section
34    5-120  of  this  Article  shall not apply to any minor who is
 
                            -10-             LRB9213222RCsbam
 1    charged with a violation of subsection (a) of Section 31-6 or
 2    Section 32-10 of the Criminal Code of 1961 when the minor  is
 3    subject  to prosecution under the criminal laws of this State
 4    as a result of the application of the provisions  of  Section
 5    5-125,  or  subsection  (1)  or  (2)  of this Section.  These
 6    charges and  all  other  charges  arising  out  of  the  same
 7    incident  shall be prosecuted under the criminal laws of this
 8    State.
 9        (b) (i)  If  before  trial  or  plea  an  information  or
10    indictment is filed that does not charge an offense specified
11    in paragraph (a) of this subsection (5), the State's Attorney
12    may proceed on any lesser charge  or  charges,  but  only  in
13    Juvenile  Court  under  the  provisions of this Article.  The
14    State's Attorney may proceed under the criminal laws of  this
15    State  on a lesser charge if before trial the minor defendant
16    knowingly and with advice of counsel waives, in writing,  his
17    or her right to have the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
18        (ii)  If   before   trial   or  plea  an  information  or
19    indictment  is  filed  that  includes  one  or  more  charges
20    specified  in  paragraph  (a)  of  this  subsection  (5)  and
21    additional charges that are not specified in that  paragraph,
22    all  of the charges arising out of the same incident shall be
23    prosecuted under the criminal laws of this State.
24        (c) (i)  If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of
25    any offense covered by paragraph (a) of this subsection  (5),
26    then, in sentencing the minor, the court shall have available
27    any  or  all  dispositions  prescribed for that offense under
28    Chapter V  of the Unified Code of Corrections.
29        (ii)  If after trial or plea the  court  finds  that  the
30    minor  committed  an  offense not covered by paragraph (a) of
31    this subsection (5), the conviction shall not invalidate  the
32    verdict  or  the  prosecution of the minor under the criminal
33    laws of this State;  however, unless  the  State  requests  a
34    hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
 
                            -11-             LRB9213222RCsbam
 1    V  of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
 2    under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article. To request  a
 3    hearing,  the State must file a written motion within 10 days
 4    following the entry of a finding or the return of a  verdict.
 5    Reasonable  notice  of the motion shall be given to the minor
 6    or his or her counsel.  If the motion is made by  the  State,
 7    the court shall conduct a hearing to determine if whether the
 8    minor should be sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code
 9    of Corrections.  In making its determination, the court shall
10    consider  among  other matters: (a) whether there is evidence
11    that  the  offense  was  committed  in  an   aggressive   and
12    premeditated  manner;  (b)  the  age  of  the minor;  (c) the
13    previous delinquent history of the minor; (d)  whether  there
14    are  facilities  particularly available to the Juvenile Court
15    or the Department of Corrections, Juvenile Division, for  the
16    treatment  and  rehabilitation  of the minor; (e) whether the
17    security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
18    the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f)  whether  the  minor
19    possessed  a  deadly weapon when committing the offense.  The
20    rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial.  If after
21    the  hearing  the  court  finds  that  the  minor  should  be
22    sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
23    then the court shall sentence the  minor  accordingly  having
24    available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
25        (6)  The  definition  of  delinquent  minor under Section
26    5-120 of this Article shall  not  apply  to  any  minor  who,
27    pursuant  to subsection (1), (2), or (3) or Section 5-805, or
28    5-810, has previously been placed under the  jurisdiction  of
29    the criminal court and has been convicted of a crime under an
30    adult  criminal  or  penal  statute.  Such  a  minor shall be
31    subject to prosecution under the criminal laws of this State.
32        (7)  The procedures set  out  in  this  Article  for  the
33    investigation,  arrest  and prosecution of juvenile offenders
34    shall not apply to minors who are excluded from  jurisdiction
 
                            -12-             LRB9213222RCsbam
 1    of  the  Juvenile Court, except that minors under 17 years of
 2    age shall be kept separate from confined adults.
 3        (8)  Nothing  in  this  Act  prohibits  or   limits   the
 4    prosecution of any minor for an offense committed on or after
 5    his or her 17th birthday even though he or she is at the time
 6    of the offense a ward of the court.
 7        (9)  If an original petition for adjudication of wardship
 8    alleges  the commission by a minor 13 years of age or over of
 9    an act that constitutes a crime under the laws of this State,
10    the minor, with the consent of his or her  counsel,  may,  at
11    any  time  before  commencement  of the adjudicatory hearing,
12    file with the court a motion  that  criminal  prosecution  be
13    ordered and that the petition be dismissed insofar as the act
14    or  acts  involved in the criminal proceedings are concerned.
15    If such a motion is filed as herein provided, the court shall
16    enter its order accordingly.
17        (10)  If  a  minor  is  subject  to  the  provisions   of
18    subsection  (2)  of  this Section, other than a minor charged
19    with a Class X felony violation of  the  Illinois  Controlled
20    Substances  Act,  any  party including the minor or the court
21    sua sponte may, before trial, move  for  a  hearing  for  the
22    purpose  of  trying  and sentencing the minor as a delinquent
23    minor. To request a hearing, the party  must  file  a  motion
24    prior  to  trial.  Reasonable  notice  of the motion shall be
25    given to all parties. On its own motion or upon the filing of
26    a motion by one of the parties including the minor, the court
27    shall conduct a hearing to determine whether the minor should
28    be tried and sentenced  as  a  delinquent  minor  under  this
29    Article.   In  making  its  determination,  the  court  shall
30    consider among other matters:
31        (a)  The age of the minor;
32        (b)  Any previous delinquent or criminal history  of  the
33    minor;
34        (c)  Any previous abuse or neglect history of the minor;
 
                            -13-             LRB9213222RCsbam
 1        (d)  Any  mental  health  or  educational  history of the
 2    minor, or both; and
 3        (e)  Whether there  is  probable  cause  to  support  the
 4    charge,  whether the minor is charged through accountability,
 5    and whether there is evidence the minor  possessed  a  deadly
 6    weapon or caused serious bodily harm during the offense.
 7        Any  material  that  is  relevant  and  reliable shall be
 8    admissible at the hearing.  In all  cases,  the  judge  shall
 9    enter an order permitting prosecution under the criminal laws
10    of  Illinois  unless  the  judge  makes  a finding based on a
11    preponderance  of  the  evidence  that  the  minor  would  be
12    amenable  to  the  care,  treatment,  and  training  programs
13    available through the facilities of the juvenile court  based
14    on  an  evaluation  of  the factors listed in this subsection
15    (10).
