11        (730 ILCS 5/5-9-1) (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-9-1)
12        Sec. 5-9-1.  Authorized fines.
13        (a)  An offender may be sentenced to  pay  a  fine  which
14    shall not exceed for each offense:
15             (1)  for  a  felony, $25,000 or the amount specified
16        in the  offense,  whichever  is  greater,  or  where  the
17        offender   is   a  corporation,  $50,000  or  the  amount
18        specified in the offense, whichever is greater;

20        specified in the offense, whichever is greater;
21             (3)  for a Class B or Class C misdemeanor, $1,500;
22             (4)  for a  petty  offense,  $1,000  or  the  amount
23        specified in the offense, whichever is less;
24             (5)  for a business offense, the amount specified in
25        the statute defining that offense.
26        (b)  A  fine  may be imposed in addition to a sentence of
27    conditional discharge, probation, periodic  imprisonment,  or
28    imprisonment.
29        (c)  There  shall  be  added  to  every  fine  imposed in
30    sentencing for a  criminal  or  traffic  offense,  except  an
31    offense  relating to parking or registration, or offense by a
32    pedestrian, an additional penalty of  $5  for  each  $40,  or
 
                            -13-           LRB9201534DHmbam02
 1    fraction  thereof, of fine imposed. The additional penalty of
 2    $5 for each $40, or fraction thereof, of fine imposed, if not
 3    otherwise assessed, shall also be added to every fine imposed
 4    upon a plea of guilty, stipulation of facts  or  findings  of
 5    guilty,  resulting  in  a judgment of conviction, or order of
 6    supervision in criminal,  traffic,  local  ordinance,  county
 7    ordinance,    and   conservation   cases   (except   parking,

 9    of  probation  without  entry of judgment under Section 10 of
10    the Cannabis Control Act or Section  410  of  the  Controlled
11    Substances Act.
12        Such  additional  amounts  shall be assessed by the court
13    imposing the fine and shall be collected by the Circuit Clerk
14    in addition to the fine and costs  in  the  case.  Each  such
15    additional  penalty  shall  be  remitted by the Circuit Clerk
16    within one month after receipt to the  State  Treasurer.  The
17    State  Treasurer  shall  deposit $1 for each $40, or fraction
18    thereof, of fine imposed into  the  LEADS  Maintenance  Fund.
19    The  remaining  surcharge  amount shall be deposited into the
20    Traffic and Criminal Conviction Surcharge  Fund,  unless  the
21    fine, costs or additional amounts are subject to disbursement
22    by  the  circuit  clerk  under  Section 27.5 of the Clerks of
23    Courts Act.  Such additional penalty shall not be  considered
24    a  part of the fine for purposes of any reduction in the fine
25    for time served either before  or  after  sentencing.     Not
26    later  than  March  1  of  each  year the Circuit Clerk shall
27    submit a report of the amount of funds remitted to the  State
28    Treasurer  under  this  subsection  (c)  during the preceding
29    calendar year.  Except as otherwise provided by Supreme Court
30    Rules, if a court in imposing  a  fine  against  an  offender
31    levies  a  gross  amount for fine, costs, fees and penalties,
32    the amount of the  additional  penalty  provided  for  herein
33    shall  be  computed  on  the amount remaining after deducting
34    from the gross amount levied all fees of the  Circuit  Clerk,

 1    the  State's  Attorney and the Sheriff.  After deducting from
 2    the gross amount  levied  the  fees  and  additional  penalty
 3    provided  for  herein,  less  any  other additional penalties
 4    provided by law,  the  clerk  shall  remit  the  net  balance
 5    remaining to the entity authorized by law to receive the fine
 6    imposed  in  the case.  For purposes of this Section "fees of
 7    the Circuit Clerk" shall  include,  if  applicable,  the  fee
 8    provided  for under Section 27.3a of the Clerks of Courts Act
 9    and the fee, if applicable, payable to the  county  in  which
10    the  violation  occurred  pursuant  to  Section 5-1101 of the
11    Counties Code.
12        (c-5)  In addition to the  fines  imposed  by  subsection
13    (c),   any   person   convicted  or  receiving  an  order  of
14    supervision for driving under the  influence  of  alcohol  or
15    drugs  shall  pay  an  additional  $100 $25 fee to the clerk.
16    This additional fee, less 2 1/2% that shall be used to defray
17    administrative costs incurred by the clerk, shall be remitted
18    by the clerk to the Treasurer within 60  days  after  receipt
19    for deposit into the Trauma Center Fund.  This additional fee
20    of  $100  $25  shall not be considered a part of the fine for
21    purposes of any reduction in the fine for time served  either
22    before  or  after  sentencing. Not later than March 1 of each
23    year the Circuit Clerk shall submit a report of the amount of
24    funds remitted to the State Treasurer under  this  subsection
25    (c-5) during the preceding calendar year.
26        The  Circuit  Clerk may accept payment of fines and costs
27    by credit card from an offender who has been convicted  of  a
28    traffic  offense, petty offense or misdemeanor and may charge
29    the service fee permitted where fines and costs are  paid  by
30    credit  card  provided  for in Section 27.3b of the Clerks of
31    Courts Act.
32        (c-7)  In addition to the  fines  imposed  by  subsection
33    (c),   any   person   convicted  or  receiving  an  order  of
34    supervision for driving under the  influence  of  alcohol  or
 
                            -15-           LRB9201534DHmbam02
 1    drugs  shall  pay  an  additional  $5 fee to the clerk.  This
 2    additional fee, less 2 1/2% that  shall  be  used  to  defray
 3    administrative costs incurred by the clerk, shall be remitted
 4    by  the  clerk  to the Treasurer within 60 days after receipt
 5    for deposit  into  the  Spinal  Cord  Injury  Paralysis  Cure
 6    Research  Trust Fund.  This additional fee of $5 shall not be
 7    considered a part of the fine for purposes of  any  reduction
 8    in   the   fine  for  time  served  either  before  or  after
 9    sentencing. Not later than March 1 of each year  the  Circuit
10    Clerk  shall  submit a report of the amount of funds remitted
11    to the State Treasurer under this subsection (c-7) during the
12    preceding calendar year.
13        (d)  In determining the amount and method of payment of a
14    fine, except for those fines established  for  violations  of
15    Chapter  15  of  the  Illinois  Vehicle Code, the court shall
16    consider:
17             (1)  the financial resources and future  ability  of
18        the offender to pay the fine; and
19             (2)  whether the fine will prevent the offender from
20        making  court  ordered  restitution  or reparation to the
21        victim of the offense; and
22             (3)  in a case where  the  accused  is  a  dissolved
23        corporation  and  the  court  has  appointed  counsel  to
24        represent  the  corporation, the costs incurred either by
25        the county or the State for such representation.
26        (e)  The court may order the fine to be paid forthwith or
27    within a specified period of time or in installments.
28        (f)  All fines,  costs  and  additional  amounts  imposed
29    under this Section for any violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and
30    11  of the Illinois Vehicle Code, or a similar provision of a
31    local ordinance, and any violation  of  the  Child  Passenger
32    Protection  Act, or a similar provision of a local ordinance,
33    shall be collected and disbursed  by  the  circuit  clerk  as
34    provided under Section 27.5 of the Clerks of Courts Act.
