| 1 | AMENDMENT TO HOUSE BILL 4091 | ||||||
| 2 | AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend House Bill 4091 by replacing | ||||||
| 3 | everything after the enacting clause with the following: | ||||||
| 4 | "Section 5. The Juvenile Court Act of 1987 is amended by | ||||||
| 5 | changing Section 5-715 as follows: | ||||||
| 6 | (705 ILCS 405/5-715) | ||||||
| 7 | Sec. 5-715. Probation. | ||||||
| 8 | (1) The period of probation or conditional discharge shall | ||||||
| 9 | not exceed 5 years or until the minor has attained the age of | ||||||
| 10 | 21 years, whichever is less, except as provided in this | ||||||
| 11 | Section for a minor who is found to be guilty for an offense | ||||||
| 12 | which is first degree murder. The juvenile court may terminate | ||||||
| 13 | probation or conditional discharge and discharge the minor at | ||||||
| 14 | any time if warranted by the conduct of the minor and the ends | ||||||
| 15 | of justice; provided, however, that the period of probation | ||||||
| 16 | for a minor who is found to be guilty for an offense which is | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | first degree murder shall be at least 5 years. | ||||||
| 2 | (1.5) The period of probation for a minor who is found | ||||||
| 3 | guilty of aggravated criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual | ||||||
| 4 | assault, or aggravated battery with a firearm shall be at | ||||||
| 5 | least 36 months. The period of probation for a minor who is | ||||||
| 6 | found to be guilty of any other Class X felony shall be at | ||||||
| 7 | least 24 months. The period of probation for a Class 1 or Class | ||||||
| 8 | 2 forcible felony shall be at least 18 months. Regardless of | ||||||
| 9 | the length of probation ordered by the court, for all offenses | ||||||
| 10 | under this subsection (1.5), the court shall schedule hearings | ||||||
| 11 | to determine whether it is in the best interest of the minor | ||||||
| 12 | and public safety to terminate probation after the minimum | ||||||
| 13 | period of probation has been served. In such a hearing, there | ||||||
| 14 | shall be a rebuttable presumption that it is in the best | ||||||
| 15 | interest of the minor and public safety to terminate | ||||||
| 16 | probation. | ||||||
| 17 | (2) The court may as a condition of probation or of | ||||||
| 18 | conditional discharge require that the minor: | ||||||
| 19 | (a) not violate any criminal statute of any | ||||||

| 15 | facility, attend an educational program at a facility | ||||||
| 16 | other than the school in which the offense was committed | ||||||
| 17 | if the minor committed a crime of violence as defined in | ||||||
| 18 | Section 2 of the Crime Victims Compensation Act in a | ||||||

| 5 | discharge; | ||||||
| 6 | (s) refrain from having any contact, directly or | ||||||

| 13 | (t) refrain from having in the minor's body the | ||||||
| 14 | presence of any illicit drug prohibited by the Cannabis | ||||||
| 15 | Control Act, the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or | ||||||
| 16 | the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act, | ||||||
| 17 | unless prescribed by a physician, and shall submit samples | ||||||
| 18 | of the minor's blood or urine or both for tests to | ||||||
| 19 | determine the presence of any illicit drug; or | ||||||
| 20 | (u) comply with other conditions as may be ordered by | ||||||
| 21 | the court. | ||||||
| 22 | (3) The court may as a condition of probation or of | ||||||
| 23 | conditional discharge require that a minor found guilty on any | ||||||
| 24 | alcohol, cannabis, methamphetamine, or controlled substance | ||||||
| 25 | violation, refrain from acquiring a driver's license during | ||||||
| 26 | the period of probation or conditional discharge. If the minor | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | is in possession of a permit or license, the court may require | ||||||
| 2 | that the minor refrain from driving or operating any motor | ||||||
| 3 | vehicle during the period of probation or conditional | ||||||
| 4 | discharge, except as may be necessary in the course of the | ||||||
| 5 | minor's lawful employment. | ||||||
| 6 | (3.5) The court shall, as a condition of probation or of | ||||||
| 7 | conditional discharge, require that a minor found to be guilty | ||||||
| 8 | and placed on probation for reasons that include a violation | ||||||
| 9 | of Section 3.02 or Section 3.03 of the Humane Care for Animals | ||||||
| 10 | Act or paragraph (4) of subsection (a) of Section 21-1 of the | ||||||
| 11 | Criminal Code of 2012 undergo medical or psychiatric treatment | ||||||
| 12 | rendered by a psychiatrist or psychological treatment rendered | ||||||
| 13 | by a clinical psychologist. The condition may be in addition | ||||||
| 14 | to any other condition. | ||||||
| 15 | (3.10) The court shall order that a minor placed on | ||||||
| 16 | probation or conditional discharge for a sex offense as | ||||||
| 17 | defined in the Sex Offender Management Board Act undergo and | ||||||
| 18 | successfully complete sex offender treatment. The treatment | ||||||
| 19 | shall be in conformance with the standards developed under the | ||||||
| 20 | Sex Offender Management Board Act and conducted by a treatment | ||||||
| 21 | provider approved by the Board. | ||||||
| 22 | (4) A minor on probation or conditional discharge shall be | ||||||
| 23 | given a certificate setting forth the conditions upon which | ||||||
| 24 | the minor is being released. | ||||||
| 25 | (5) (Blank). | ||||||
| 26 | (5.5) Jurisdiction over an offender may be transferred | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | from the sentencing court to the court of another circuit with | ||||||
| 2 | the concurrence of both courts. Further transfers or | ||||||
| 3 | retransfers of jurisdiction are also authorized in the same | ||||||
| 4 | manner. The court to which jurisdiction has been transferred | ||||||
| 5 | shall have the same powers as the sentencing court. | ||||||
| 6 | If the transfer case originated in another state and has | ||||||
| 7 | been transferred under the Interstate Compact for Juveniles to | ||||||
| 8 | the jurisdiction of an Illinois circuit court for supervision | ||||||
| 9 | by an Illinois probation department, probation fees may be | ||||||
| 10 | imposed only if permitted by the Interstate Commission for | ||||||
| 11 | Juveniles. | ||||||
| 12 | (6) The General Assembly finds that in order to protect | ||||||
| 13 | the public, the juvenile justice system must compel compliance | ||||||
| 14 | with the conditions of probation by responding to violations | ||||||
| 15 | with swift, certain, and fair punishments and intermediate | ||||||
| 16 | sanctions. The Chief Judge of each circuit shall adopt a | ||||||
| 17 | system of structured, intermediate sanctions for violations of | ||||||
| 18 | the terms and conditions of a sentence of supervision, | ||||||
| 19 | probation, or conditional discharge, under this Act. | ||||||
| 20 | The court shall provide as a condition of a disposition of | ||||||
| 21 | probation, conditional discharge, or supervision, that the | ||||||
| 22 | probation agency may invoke any sanction from the list of | ||||||
| 23 | intermediate sanctions adopted by the chief judge of the | ||||||
| 24 | circuit court for violations of the terms and conditions of | ||||||
| 25 | the sentence of probation, conditional discharge, or | ||||||
| 26 | supervision, subject to the provisions of Section 5-720 of | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | this Act. | ||||||
| 2 | (6.5)(a) When the court places a minor on probation for an | ||||||
| 3 | offense that involves the possession or discharge of a firearm | ||||||
| 4 | not causing any injury, and the minor has previously been | ||||||
| 5 | placed on probation for an offense that involves the | ||||||
| 6 | possession or discharge of a firearm not causing any injury, | ||||||
| 7 | the probation agency shall: | ||||||
| 8 | (i) conduct an individualized assessment of the | ||||||
| 9 | minor's needs; | ||||||
| 10 | (ii) identify the array of services available in the | ||||||
| 11 | community where the minor resides that may be appropriate | ||||||
| 12 | to address the minor's needs, which may include, but are | ||||||
| 13 | not limited to, restorative justice programs, social | ||||||
| 14 | service programs for high-risk youth, cognitive behavioral | ||||||
| 15 | therapy, family engagement, and mentoring; and | ||||||
| 16 | (iii) share with the minor and the minor's parent, | ||||||
| 17 | guardian, or legal custodian information about their | ||||||
| 18 | options to access services identified under this paragraph | ||||||
| 19 | (a). | ||||||
| 20 | (b) The probation agency may recommend to the court that | ||||||
| 21 | it require the minor to access the services identified under | ||||||
| 22 | paragraph (a) as a condition of probation. | ||||||
| 23 | (7) Fines and assessments, including any fee or | ||||||
| 24 | administrative cost authorized under Section 5-4.5-105, | ||||||
| 25 | 5-5-10, 5-6-3, 5-6-3.1, 5-7-6, 5-9-1.4, or 5-9-1.9 of the | ||||||
| 26 | Unified Code of Corrections, shall not be ordered or imposed | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | on a minor or the minor's parent, guardian, or legal custodian | ||||||
| 2 | as a condition of probation, conditional discharge, or | ||||||
| 3 | supervision. If the minor or the minor's parent, guardian, or | ||||||
| 4 | legal custodian is unable to cover the cost of a condition | ||||||
| 5 | under this subsection, the court shall not preclude the minor | ||||||
| 6 | from receiving probation, conditional discharge, or | ||||||
| 7 | supervision based on the inability to pay. Inability to pay | ||||||
| 8 | shall not be grounds to object to the minor's placement on | ||||||
| 9 | probation, conditional discharge, or supervision. | ||||||
