3are the most serious. School officials shall limit the number
4and duration of expulsions and suspensions to the greatest
5extent practicable, and it is recommended that they use them
6only for legitimate educational purposes. To ensure that
7students are not excluded from school unnecessarily, it is

20other students' learning opportunities" shall be determined on

2only if other appropriate and available behavioral and
3disciplinary interventions have been exhausted and the
4student's continuing presence in school would either (i) pose a
5threat to the safety of other students, staff, or members of
6the school community or (ii) substantially disrupt, impede, or
7interfere with the operation of the school. For purposes of
8this subsection (b-20), "threat to the safety of other
9students, staff, or members of the school community" and
10"substantially disrupt, impede, or interfere with the
11operation of the school" shall be determined on a case-by-case
12basis by school officials. For purposes of this subsection
13(b-20), the determination of whether "appropriate and
14available behavioral and disciplinary interventions have been
15exhausted" shall be made by school officials. School officials
16shall make all reasonable efforts to resolve such threats,
17address such disruptions, and minimize the length of student
18exclusions to the greatest extent practicable. Within the

5to be provided or whether it was determined that there are no
6such appropriate and available services.

10re-engagement of students who are suspended out-of-school,
11expelled, or returning from an alternative school setting.

19transportation to school.

20manifestations of abuse on the person of the victim.
21Modification and extension of prior orders of protection shall
22be in accordance with this Article.
23 (b) Remedies and standards. The remedies to be included in
24an order of protection shall be determined in accordance with
25this Section and one of the following Sections, as appropriate:

HB0492- 185 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1Section 112A-17 on emergency orders, Section 112A-18 on interim
2orders, and Section 112A-19 on plenary orders. The remedies
3listed in this subsection shall be in addition to other civil
4or criminal remedies available to petitioner.
5 (1) Prohibition of abuse. Prohibit respondent's
6 harassment, interference with personal liberty,
7 intimidation of a dependent, physical abuse or willful
8 deprivation, as defined in this Article, if such abuse has
9 occurred or otherwise appears likely to occur if not
10 prohibited.
11 (2) Grant of exclusive possession of residence.
12 Prohibit respondent from entering or remaining in any
13 residence, household, or premises of the petitioner,
14 including one owned or leased by respondent, if petitioner
15 has a right to occupancy thereof. The grant of exclusive
16 possession of the residence, household, or premises shall
17 not affect title to real property, nor shall the court be
18 limited by the standard set forth in Section 701 of the
19 Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act.
20 (A) Right to occupancy. A party has a right to
21 occupancy of a residence or household if it is solely
22 or jointly owned or leased by that party, that party's
23 spouse, a person with a legal duty to support that
24 party or a minor child in that party's care, or by any
25 person or entity other than the opposing party that
26 authorizes that party's occupancy (e.g., a domestic

HB0492- 186 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 violence shelter). Standards set forth in subparagraph
2 (B) shall not preclude equitable relief.
3 (B) Presumption of hardships. If petitioner and
4 respondent each has the right to occupancy of a
5 residence or household, the court shall balance (i) the
6 hardships to respondent and any minor child or
7 dependent adult in respondent's care resulting from
8 entry of this remedy with (ii) the hardships to
9 petitioner and any minor child or dependent adult in
10 petitioner's care resulting from continued exposure to
11 the risk of abuse (should petitioner remain at the
12 residence or household) or from loss of possession of
13 the residence or household (should petitioner leave to
14 avoid the risk of abuse). When determining the balance
15 of hardships, the court shall also take into account
16 the accessibility of the residence or household.
17 Hardships need not be balanced if respondent does not
18 have a right to occupancy.
19 The balance of hardships is presumed to favor
20 possession by petitioner unless the presumption is
21 rebutted by a preponderance of the evidence, showing
22 that the hardships to respondent substantially
23 outweigh the hardships to petitioner and any minor
24 child or dependent adult in petitioner's care. The
25 court, on the request of petitioner or on its own
26 motion, may order respondent to provide suitable,

HB0492- 187 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 accessible, alternate housing for petitioner instead
2 of excluding respondent from a mutual residence or
3 household.
4 (3) Stay away order and additional prohibitions. Order
5 respondent to stay away from petitioner or any other person
6 protected by the order of protection, or prohibit
7 respondent from entering or remaining present at
8 petitioner's school, place of employment, or other
9 specified places at times when petitioner is present, or
10 both, if reasonable, given the balance of hardships.
11 Hardships need not be balanced for the court to enter a
12 stay away order or prohibit entry if respondent has no
13 right to enter the premises.
14 If an order of protection grants petitioner exclusive
15 possession of the residence, or prohibits respondent from
16 entering the residence, or orders respondent to stay away
17 from petitioner or other protected persons, then the court
18 may allow respondent access to the residence to remove
19 items of clothing and personal adornment used exclusively
20 by respondent, medications, and other items as the court
21 directs. The right to access shall be exercised on only one
22 occasion as the court directs and in the presence of an
23 agreed-upon adult third party or law enforcement officer.
24 (4) Counseling. Require or recommend the respondent to
25 undergo counseling for a specified duration with a social
26 worker, psychologist, clinical psychologist, psychiatrist,

HB0492- 188 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 family service agency, alcohol or substance abuse program,
2 mental health center guidance counselor, agency providing
3 services to elders, program designed for domestic violence
4 abusers or any other guidance service the court deems
5 appropriate. The court may order the respondent in any
6 intimate partner relationship to report to an Illinois
7 Department of Human Services protocol approved partner
8 abuse intervention program for an assessment and to follow
9 all recommended treatment.
10 (5) Physical care and possession of the minor child. In
11 order to protect the minor child from abuse, neglect, or
12 unwarranted separation from the person who has been the
13 minor child's primary caretaker, or to otherwise protect
14 the well-being of the minor child, the court may do either
15 or both of the following: (i) grant petitioner physical
16 care or possession of the minor child, or both, or (ii)
17 order respondent to return a minor child to, or not remove
18 a minor child from, the physical care of a parent or person
19 in loco parentis.
20 If a court finds, after a hearing, that respondent has
21 committed abuse (as defined in Section 112A-3) of a minor
22 child, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that
23 awarding physical care to respondent would not be in the
24 minor child's best interest.
25 (6) Temporary legal custody. Award temporary legal
26 custody to petitioner in accordance with this Section, the

HB0492- 189 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, the
2 Illinois Parentage Act of 2015, and this State's Uniform
3 Child-Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act.
4 If a court finds, after a hearing, that respondent has
5 committed abuse (as defined in Section 112A-3) of a minor
6 child, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that
7 awarding temporary legal custody to respondent would not be
8 in the child's best interest.
9 (7) Visitation. Determine the visitation rights, if
10 any, of respondent in any case in which the court awards
11 physical care or temporary legal custody of a minor child
12 to petitioner. The court shall restrict or deny
13 respondent's visitation with a minor child if the court
14 finds that respondent has done or is likely to do any of
15 the following: (i) abuse or endanger the minor child during
16 visitation; (ii) use the visitation as an opportunity to
17 abuse or harass petitioner or petitioner's family or
18 household members; (iii) improperly conceal or detain the
19 minor child; or (iv) otherwise act in a manner that is not
20 in the best interests of the minor child. The court shall
21 not be limited by the standards set forth in Section 607.1
22 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act.
23 If the court grants visitation, the order shall specify
24 dates and times for the visitation to take place or other
25 specific parameters or conditions that are appropriate. No
26 order for visitation shall refer merely to the term

HB0492- 190 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 "reasonable visitation".
2 Petitioner may deny respondent access to the minor
3 child if, when respondent arrives for visitation,
4 respondent is under the influence of drugs or alcohol and
5 constitutes a threat to the safety and well-being of
6 petitioner or petitioner's minor children or is behaving in
7 a violent or abusive manner.
8 If necessary to protect any member of petitioner's
9 family or household from future abuse, respondent shall be
10 prohibited from coming to petitioner's residence to meet
11 the minor child for visitation, and the parties shall
12 submit to the court their recommendations for reasonable
13 alternative arrangements for visitation. A person may be
14 approved to supervise visitation only after filing an
15 affidavit accepting that responsibility and acknowledging
16 accountability to the court.
17 (8) Removal or concealment of minor child. Prohibit
18 respondent from removing a minor child from the State or
19 concealing the child within the State.
20 (9) Order to appear. Order the respondent to appear in
21 court, alone or with a minor child, to prevent abuse,
22 neglect, removal or concealment of the child, to return the
23 child to the custody or care of the petitioner or to permit
24 any court-ordered interview or examination of the child or
25 the respondent.
26 (10) Possession of personal property. Grant petitioner

HB0492- 191 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 exclusive possession of personal property and, if
2 respondent has possession or control, direct respondent to
3 promptly make it available to petitioner, if:
4 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
5 property; or
6 (ii) the parties own the property jointly; sharing
7 it would risk abuse of petitioner by respondent or is
8 impracticable; and the balance of hardships favors
9 temporary possession by petitioner.
10 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the property
11 is that it is marital property, the court may award
12 petitioner temporary possession thereof under the
13 standards of subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph only if a
14 proper proceeding has been filed under the Illinois
15 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as now or
16 hereafter amended.
17 No order under this provision shall affect title to
18 property.
19 (11) Protection of property. Forbid the respondent
20 from taking, transferring, encumbering, concealing,
21 damaging or otherwise disposing of any real or personal
22 property, except as explicitly authorized by the court, if:
23 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
24 property; or
25 (ii) the parties own the property jointly, and the
26 balance of hardships favors granting this remedy.

HB0492- 192 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the property
2 is that it is marital property, the court may grant
3 petitioner relief under subparagraph (ii) of this
4 paragraph only if a proper proceeding has been filed under
5 the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
6 now or hereafter amended.
7 The court may further prohibit respondent from
8 improperly using the financial or other resources of an
9 aged member of the family or household for the profit or
10 advantage of respondent or of any other person.
11 (11.5) Protection of animals. Grant the petitioner the
12 exclusive care, custody, or control of any animal owned,
13 possessed, leased, kept, or held by either the petitioner
14 or the respondent or a minor child residing in the
15 residence or household of either the petitioner or the
16 respondent and order the respondent to stay away from the
17 animal and forbid the respondent from taking,
18 transferring, encumbering, concealing, harming, or
19 otherwise disposing of the animal.
20 (12) Order for payment of support. Order respondent to
21 pay temporary support for the petitioner or any child in
22 the petitioner's care or custody, when the respondent has a
23 legal obligation to support that person, in accordance with
24 the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act,
25 which shall govern, among other matters, the amount of
26 support, payment through the clerk and withholding of

HB0492- 193 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 income to secure payment. An order for child support may be
2 granted to a petitioner with lawful physical care or
3 custody of a child, or an order or agreement for physical
4 care or custody, prior to entry of an order for legal
5 custody. Such a support order shall expire upon entry of a
6 valid order granting legal custody to another, unless
7 otherwise provided in the custody order.
8 (13) Order for payment of losses. Order respondent to
9 pay petitioner for losses suffered as a direct result of
10 the abuse. Such losses shall include, but not be limited
11 to, medical expenses, lost earnings or other support,
12 repair or replacement of property damaged or taken,
13 reasonable attorney's fees, court costs and moving or other
14 travel expenses, including additional reasonable expenses
15 for temporary shelter and restaurant meals.
16 (i) Losses affecting family needs. If a party is
17 entitled to seek maintenance, child support or
18 property distribution from the other party under the
19 Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
20 now or hereafter amended, the court may order
21 respondent to reimburse petitioner's actual losses, to
22 the extent that such reimbursement would be
23 "appropriate temporary relief", as authorized by
24 subsection (a)(3) of Section 501 of that Act.
25 (ii) Recovery of expenses. In the case of an
26 improper concealment or removal of a minor child, the

HB0492- 194 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 court may order respondent to pay the reasonable
2 expenses incurred or to be incurred in the search for
3 and recovery of the minor child, including but not
4 limited to legal fees, court costs, private
5 investigator fees, and travel costs.
6 (14) Prohibition of entry. Prohibit the respondent
7 from entering or remaining in the residence or household
8 while the respondent is under the influence of alcohol or
9 drugs and constitutes a threat to the safety and well-being
10 of the petitioner or the petitioner's children.
11 (14.5) Prohibition of firearm possession.
12 (A) A person who is subject to an existing order of
13 protection, interim order of protection, emergency
14 order of protection, or plenary order of protection,
15 issued under this Code may not lawfully possess
16 firearms, stun guns, or tasers weapons under Section
17 8.2 of the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act.
18 (B) Any firearms in the possession of the
19 respondent, except as provided in subparagraph (C) of
20 this paragraph (14.5), shall be ordered by the court to
21 be turned over to a person who is not prohibited under
22 State or federal law from possessing firearms with a
23 valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card for
24 safekeeping. The court shall issue an order that the
25 respondent's Firearm Owner's Identification Card be
26 turned over to the local law enforcement agency, which

HB0492- 195 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 in turn shall immediately mail the card to the
2 Department of State Police Firearm Owner's
3 Identification Card Office for safekeeping. The period
4 of safekeeping shall be for the duration of the order
5 of protection. The firearm or firearms and Firearm
6 Owner's Identification Card, if unexpired, shall at
7 the respondent's request be returned to the respondent
8 at expiration of the order of protection.
9 (C) If the respondent is a peace officer as defined
10 in Section 2-13 of the Criminal Code of 2012, the court
11 shall order that any firearms used by the respondent in
12 the performance of his or her duties as a peace officer
13 be surrendered to the chief law enforcement executive
14 of the agency in which the respondent is employed, who
15 shall retain the firearms for safekeeping for the
16 duration of the order of protection.
17 (D) Upon expiration of the period of safekeeping,
18 if the firearms or Firearm Owner's Identification Card
19 cannot be returned to respondent because respondent
20 cannot be located, fails to respond to requests to
21 retrieve the firearms, or is not lawfully eligible to
22 possess a firearm, upon petition from the local law
23 enforcement agency, the court may order the local law
24 enforcement agency to destroy the firearms, use the
25 firearms for training purposes, or for any other
26 application as deemed appropriate by the local law

HB0492- 196 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 enforcement agency; or that the firearms be turned over
2 to a third party who is lawfully eligible to possess
3 firearms, and who does not reside with respondent.
4 (15) Prohibition of access to records. If an order of
5 protection prohibits respondent from having contact with
6 the minor child, or if petitioner's address is omitted
7 under subsection (b) of Section 112A-5, or if necessary to
8 prevent abuse or wrongful removal or concealment of a minor
9 child, the order shall deny respondent access to, and
10 prohibit respondent from inspecting, obtaining, or
11 attempting to inspect or obtain, school or any other
12 records of the minor child who is in the care of
13 petitioner.
14 (16) Order for payment of shelter services. Order
15 respondent to reimburse a shelter providing temporary
16 housing and counseling services to the petitioner for the
17 cost of the services, as certified by the shelter and
18 deemed reasonable by the court.
19 (17) Order for injunctive relief. Enter injunctive
20 relief necessary or appropriate to prevent further abuse of
21 a family or household member or to effectuate one of the
22 granted remedies, if supported by the balance of hardships.
23 If the harm to be prevented by the injunction is abuse or
24 any other harm that one of the remedies listed in
25 paragraphs (1) through (16) of this subsection is designed
26 to prevent, no further evidence is necessary to establish

HB0492- 197 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 that the harm is an irreparable injury.
2 (c) Relevant factors; findings.
3 (1) In determining whether to grant a specific remedy,
4 other than payment of support, the court shall consider
5 relevant factors, including but not limited to the
6 following:
7 (i) the nature, frequency, severity, pattern and
8 consequences of the respondent's past abuse of the
9 petitioner or any family or household member,
10 including the concealment of his or her location in
11 order to evade service of process or notice, and the
12 likelihood of danger of future abuse to petitioner or
13 any member of petitioner's or respondent's family or
14 household; and
15 (ii) the danger that any minor child will be abused
16 or neglected or improperly removed from the
17 jurisdiction, improperly concealed within the State or
18 improperly separated from the child's primary
19 caretaker.
20 (2) In comparing relative hardships resulting to the
21 parties from loss of possession of the family home, the
22 court shall consider relevant factors, including but not
23 limited to the following:
24 (i) availability, accessibility, cost, safety,
25 adequacy, location and other characteristics of
26 alternate housing for each party and any minor child or

HB0492- 198 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 dependent adult in the party's care;
2 (ii) the effect on the party's employment; and
3 (iii) the effect on the relationship of the party,
4 and any minor child or dependent adult in the party's
5 care, to family, school, church and community.
6 (3) Subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph
7 (4) of this subsection, the court shall make its findings
8 in an official record or in writing, and shall at a minimum
9 set forth the following:
10 (i) That the court has considered the applicable
11 relevant factors described in paragraphs (1) and (2) of
12 this subsection.
13 (ii) Whether the conduct or actions of respondent,
14 unless prohibited, will likely cause irreparable harm
15 or continued abuse.
16 (iii) Whether it is necessary to grant the
17 requested relief in order to protect petitioner or
18 other alleged abused persons.
19 (4) For purposes of issuing an ex parte emergency order
20 of protection, the court, as an alternative to or as a
21 supplement to making the findings described in paragraphs
22 (c)(3)(i) through (c)(3)(iii) of this subsection, may use
23 the following procedure:
24 When a verified petition for an emergency order of
25 protection in accordance with the requirements of Sections
26 112A-5 and 112A-17 is presented to the court, the court

HB0492- 199 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 shall examine petitioner on oath or affirmation. An
2 emergency order of protection shall be issued by the court
3 if it appears from the contents of the petition and the
4 examination of petitioner that the averments are
5 sufficient to indicate abuse by respondent and to support
6 the granting of relief under the issuance of the emergency
7 order of protection.
8 (5) Never married parties. No rights or
9 responsibilities for a minor child born outside of marriage
10 attach to a putative father until a father and child
11 relationship has been established under the Illinois
12 Parentage Act of 1984 or under the Illinois Parentage Act
13 of 2015 on and after the effective date of that Act. Absent
14 such an adjudication, no putative father shall be granted
15 temporary custody of the minor child, visitation with the
16 minor child, or physical care and possession of the minor
17 child, nor shall an order of payment for support of the
18 minor child be entered.
19 (d) Balance of hardships; findings. If the court finds that
20the balance of hardships does not support the granting of a
21remedy governed by paragraph (2), (3), (10), (11), or (16) of
22subsection (b) of this Section, which may require such
23balancing, the court's findings shall so indicate and shall
24include a finding as to whether granting the remedy will result
25in hardship to respondent that would substantially outweigh the
26hardship to petitioner from denial of the remedy. The findings

HB0492- 200 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1shall be an official record or in writing.
2 (e) Denial of remedies. Denial of any remedy shall not be
3based, in whole or in part, on evidence that:
4 (1) Respondent has cause for any use of force, unless
5 that cause satisfies the standards for justifiable use of
6 force provided by Article 7 of the Criminal Code of 2012;
7 (2) Respondent was voluntarily intoxicated;
8 (3) Petitioner acted in self-defense or defense of
9 another, provided that, if petitioner utilized force, such
10 force was justifiable under Article 7 of the Criminal Code
11 of 2012;
12 (4) Petitioner did not act in self-defense or defense
13 of another;
14 (5) Petitioner left the residence or household to avoid
15 further abuse by respondent;
16 (6) Petitioner did not leave the residence or household
17 to avoid further abuse by respondent;
18 (7) Conduct by any family or household member excused
19 the abuse by respondent, unless that same conduct would
20 have excused such abuse if the parties had not been family
21 or household members.

16 The Court may only waive probation fees based on an
17offender's ability to pay. The probation department may
18re-evaluate an offender's ability to pay every 6 months, and,
19with the approval of the Director of Court Services or the
20Chief Probation Officer, adjust the monthly fee amount. An
21offender may elect to pay probation fees due in a lump sum. Any
22offender that has been assigned to the supervision of a
23probation department, or has been transferred either under
24subsection (h) of this Section or under any interstate compact,
25shall be required to pay probation fees to the department

8of this Section, in the case of an offender convicted of a
9felony sex offense (as defined in the Sex Offender Management
10Board Act) or an offense that the court or probation department
11has determined to be sexually motivated (as defined in the Sex
12Offender Management Board Act), the court or the probation
13department shall assess additional fees to pay for all costs of

16pay those costs either as they occur or under a payment plan.
17 (j) All fines and costs imposed under this Section for any
18violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois Vehicle
19Code, or a similar provision of a local ordinance, and any
20violation of the Child Passenger Protection Act, or a similar
21provision of a local ordinance, shall be collected and
22disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under Section 27.5
23of the Clerks of Courts Act.
24 (k) Any offender who is sentenced to probation or
25conditional discharge for a felony sex offense as defined in
26the Sex Offender Management Board Act or any offense that the

HB0492- 257 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1court or probation department has determined to be sexually
2motivated as defined in the Sex Offender Management Board Act
3shall be required to refrain from any contact, directly or
4indirectly, with any persons specified by the court and shall
5be available for all evaluations and treatment programs
6required by the court or the probation department.

13 Section 100. The Stalking No Contact Order Act is amended
14by changing Section 80 as follows:
15 (740 ILCS 21/80)
16 Sec. 80. Stalking no contact orders; remedies.
17 (a) If the court finds that the petitioner has been a
18victim of stalking, a stalking no contact order shall issue;
19provided that the petitioner must also satisfy the requirements
20of Section 95 on emergency orders or Section 100 on plenary
21orders. The petitioner shall not be denied a stalking no
22contact order because the petitioner or the respondent is a
23minor. The court, when determining whether or not to issue a
24stalking no contact order, may not require physical injury on

HB0492- 258 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1the person of the petitioner. Modification and extension of
2prior stalking no contact orders shall be in accordance with
3this Act.
4 (b) A stalking no contact order shall order one or more of
5the following:
6 (1) prohibit the respondent from threatening to commit
7 or committing stalking;
8 (2) order the respondent not to have any contact with
9 the petitioner or a third person specifically named by the
10 court;
11 (3) prohibit the respondent from knowingly coming
12 within, or knowingly remaining within a specified distance
13 of the petitioner or the petitioner's residence, school,
14 daycare, or place of employment, or any specified place
15 frequented by the petitioner; however, the court may order
16 the respondent to stay away from the respondent's own
17 residence, school, or place of employment only if the
18 respondent has been provided actual notice of the
19 opportunity to appear and be heard on the petition;
20 (4) prohibit the respondent from possessing a Firearm
21 Owners Identification Card, or possessing or buying
22 firearms; and
23 (5) order other injunctive relief the court determines
24 to be necessary to protect the petitioner or third party
25 specifically named by the court.
26 (b-5) When the petitioner and the respondent attend the

HB0492- 259 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1same public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or high
2school, the court when issuing a stalking no contact order and
3providing relief shall consider the severity of the act, any
4continuing physical danger or emotional distress to the
5petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to the
6petitioner and respondent under federal and State law, the
7availability of a transfer of the respondent to another school,
8a change of placement or a change of program of the respondent,
9the expense, difficulty, and educational disruption that would
10be caused by a transfer of the respondent to another school,
11and any other relevant facts of the case. The court may order
12that the respondent not attend the public, private, or
13non-public elementary, middle, or high school attended by the
14petitioner, order that the respondent accept a change of
15placement or program, as determined by the school district or
16private or non-public school, or place restrictions on the
17respondent's movements within the school attended by the
18petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of proving by a
19preponderance of the evidence that a transfer, change of
20placement, or change of program of the respondent is not
21available. The respondent also bears the burden of production
22with respect to the expense, difficulty, and educational
23disruption that would be caused by a transfer of the respondent
24to another school. A transfer, change of placement, or change
25of program is not unavailable to the respondent solely on the
26ground that the respondent does not agree with the school

HB0492- 260 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1district's or private or non-public school's transfer, change
2of placement, or change of program or solely on the ground that
3the respondent fails or refuses to consent to or otherwise does
4not take an action required to effectuate a transfer, change of
5placement, or change of program. When a court orders a
6respondent to stay away from the public, private, or non-public
7school attended by the petitioner and the respondent requests a
8transfer to another attendance center within the respondent's
9school district or private or non-public school, the school
10district or private or non-public school shall have sole
11discretion to determine the attendance center to which the
12respondent is transferred. In the event the court order results
13in a transfer of the minor respondent to another attendance
14center, a change in the respondent's placement, or a change of
15the respondent's program, the parents, guardian, or legal
16custodian of the respondent is responsible for transportation
17and other costs associated with the transfer or change.
18 (b-6) The court may order the parents, guardian, or legal
19custodian of a minor respondent to take certain actions or to
20refrain from taking certain actions to ensure that the
21respondent complies with the order. In the event the court
22orders a transfer of the respondent to another school, the
23parents, guardian, or legal custodian of the respondent are
24responsible for transportation and other costs associated with
25the change of school by the respondent.
26 (b-7) The court shall not hold a school district or private

HB0492- 261 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1or non-public school or any of its employees in civil or
2criminal contempt unless the school district or private or
3non-public school has been allowed to intervene.
4 (b-8) The court may hold the parents, guardian, or legal
5custodian of a minor respondent in civil or criminal contempt
6for a violation of any provision of any order entered under
7this Act for conduct of the minor respondent in violation of
8this Act if the parents, guardian, or legal custodian directed,
9encouraged, or assisted the respondent minor in such conduct.
10 (c) The court may award the petitioner costs and attorneys
11fees if a stalking no contact order is granted.
12 (d) Monetary damages are not recoverable as a remedy.
13 (e) If the stalking no contact order prohibits the
14respondent from possessing a Firearm Owner's Identification
15Card, or possessing or buying firearms; the court shall
16confiscate the respondent's firearms Firearm Owner's
17Identification Card and immediately return the card to the
18Department of State Police Firearm Owner's Identification Card
19Office.

2 Section 110. The Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986 is
3amended by changing Section 214 as follows:
4 (750 ILCS 60/214) (from Ch. 40, par. 2312-14)
5 Sec. 214. Order of protection; remedies.
6 (a) Issuance of order. If the court finds that petitioner
7has been abused by a family or household member or that
8petitioner is a high-risk adult who has been abused, neglected,
9or exploited, as defined in this Act, an order of protection
10prohibiting the abuse, neglect, or exploitation shall issue;
11provided that petitioner must also satisfy the requirements of
12one of the following Sections, as appropriate: Section 217 on
13emergency orders, Section 218 on interim orders, or Section 219
14on plenary orders. Petitioner shall not be denied an order of
15protection because petitioner or respondent is a minor. The
16court, when determining whether or not to issue an order of
17protection, shall not require physical manifestations of abuse
18on the person of the victim. Modification and extension of
19prior orders of protection shall be in accordance with this
20Act.
21 (b) Remedies and standards. The remedies to be included in
22an order of protection shall be determined in accordance with
23this Section and one of the following Sections, as appropriate:
24Section 217 on emergency orders, Section 218 on interim orders,

HB0492- 270 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1and Section 219 on plenary orders. The remedies listed in this
2subsection shall be in addition to other civil or criminal
3remedies available to petitioner.
4 (1) Prohibition of abuse, neglect, or exploitation.
5 Prohibit respondent's harassment, interference with
6 personal liberty, intimidation of a dependent, physical
7 abuse, or willful deprivation, neglect or exploitation, as
8 defined in this Act, or stalking of the petitioner, as
9 defined in Section 12-7.3 of the Criminal Code of 2012, if
10 such abuse, neglect, exploitation, or stalking has
11 occurred or otherwise appears likely to occur if not
12 prohibited.
13 (2) Grant of exclusive possession of residence.
14 Prohibit respondent from entering or remaining in any
15 residence, household, or premises of the petitioner,
16 including one owned or leased by respondent, if petitioner
17 has a right to occupancy thereof. The grant of exclusive
18 possession of the residence, household, or premises shall
19 not affect title to real property, nor shall the court be
20 limited by the standard set forth in Section 701 of the
21 Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act.
22 (A) Right to occupancy. A party has a right to
23 occupancy of a residence or household if it is solely
24 or jointly owned or leased by that party, that party's
25 spouse, a person with a legal duty to support that
26 party or a minor child in that party's care, or by any

HB0492- 271 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 person or entity other than the opposing party that
2 authorizes that party's occupancy (e.g., a domestic
3 violence shelter). Standards set forth in subparagraph
4 (B) shall not preclude equitable relief.
5 (B) Presumption of hardships. If petitioner and
6 respondent each has the right to occupancy of a
7 residence or household, the court shall balance (i) the
8 hardships to respondent and any minor child or
9 dependent adult in respondent's care resulting from
10 entry of this remedy with (ii) the hardships to
11 petitioner and any minor child or dependent adult in
12 petitioner's care resulting from continued exposure to
13 the risk of abuse (should petitioner remain at the
14 residence or household) or from loss of possession of
15 the residence or household (should petitioner leave to
16 avoid the risk of abuse). When determining the balance
17 of hardships, the court shall also take into account
18 the accessibility of the residence or household.
19 Hardships need not be balanced if respondent does not
20 have a right to occupancy.
21 The balance of hardships is presumed to favor
22 possession by petitioner unless the presumption is
23 rebutted by a preponderance of the evidence, showing
24 that the hardships to respondent substantially
25 outweigh the hardships to petitioner and any minor
26 child or dependent adult in petitioner's care. The

HB0492- 272 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 court, on the request of petitioner or on its own
2 motion, may order respondent to provide suitable,
3 accessible, alternate housing for petitioner instead
4 of excluding respondent from a mutual residence or
5 household.
6 (3) Stay away order and additional prohibitions. Order
7 respondent to stay away from petitioner or any other person
8 protected by the order of protection, or prohibit
9 respondent from entering or remaining present at
10 petitioner's school, place of employment, or other
11 specified places at times when petitioner is present, or
12 both, if reasonable, given the balance of hardships.
13 Hardships need not be balanced for the court to enter a
14 stay away order or prohibit entry if respondent has no
15 right to enter the premises.
16 (A) If an order of protection grants petitioner
17 exclusive possession of the residence, or prohibits
18 respondent from entering the residence, or orders
19 respondent to stay away from petitioner or other
20 protected persons, then the court may allow respondent
21 access to the residence to remove items of clothing and
22 personal adornment used exclusively by respondent,
23 medications, and other items as the court directs. The
24 right to access shall be exercised on only one occasion
25 as the court directs and in the presence of an
26 agreed-upon adult third party or law enforcement

HB0492- 273 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 officer.
2 (B) When the petitioner and the respondent attend
3 the same public, private, or non-public elementary,
4 middle, or high school, the court when issuing an order
5 of protection and providing relief shall consider the
6 severity of the act, any continuing physical danger or
7 emotional distress to the petitioner, the educational
8 rights guaranteed to the petitioner and respondent
9 under federal and State law, the availability of a
10 transfer of the respondent to another school, a change
11 of placement or a change of program of the respondent,
12 the expense, difficulty, and educational disruption
13 that would be caused by a transfer of the respondent to
14 another school, and any other relevant facts of the
15 case. The court may order that the respondent not
16 attend the public, private, or non-public elementary,
17 middle, or high school attended by the petitioner,
18 order that the respondent accept a change of placement
19 or change of program, as determined by the school
20 district or private or non-public school, or place
21 restrictions on the respondent's movements within the
22 school attended by the petitioner. The respondent
23 bears the burden of proving by a preponderance of the
24 evidence that a transfer, change of placement, or
25 change of program of the respondent is not available.
26 The respondent also bears the burden of production with

HB0492- 274 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 respect to the expense, difficulty, and educational
2 disruption that would be caused by a transfer of the
3 respondent to another school. A transfer, change of
4 placement, or change of program is not unavailable to
5 the respondent solely on the ground that the respondent
6 does not agree with the school district's or private or
7 non-public school's transfer, change of placement, or
8 change of program or solely on the ground that the
9 respondent fails or refuses to consent or otherwise
10 does not take an action required to effectuate a
11 transfer, change of placement, or change of program.
12 When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the
13 public, private, or non-public school attended by the
14 petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to
15 another attendance center within the respondent's
16 school district or private or non-public school, the
17 school district or private or non-public school shall
18 have sole discretion to determine the attendance
19 center to which the respondent is transferred. In the
20 event the court order results in a transfer of the
21 minor respondent to another attendance center, a
22 change in the respondent's placement, or a change of
23 the respondent's program, the parents, guardian, or
24 legal custodian of the respondent is responsible for
25 transportation and other costs associated with the
26 transfer or change.

HB0492- 275 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 (C) The court may order the parents, guardian, or
2 legal custodian of a minor respondent to take certain
3 actions or to refrain from taking certain actions to
4 ensure that the respondent complies with the order. In
5 the event the court orders a transfer of the respondent
6 to another school, the parents, guardian, or legal
7 custodian of the respondent is responsible for
8 transportation and other costs associated with the
9 change of school by the respondent.
10 (4) Counseling. Require or recommend the respondent to
11 undergo counseling for a specified duration with a social
12 worker, psychologist, clinical psychologist, psychiatrist,
13 family service agency, alcohol or substance abuse program,
14 mental health center guidance counselor, agency providing
15 services to elders, program designed for domestic violence
16 abusers or any other guidance service the court deems
17 appropriate. The Court may order the respondent in any
18 intimate partner relationship to report to an Illinois
19 Department of Human Services protocol approved partner
20 abuse intervention program for an assessment and to follow
21 all recommended treatment.
22 (5) Physical care and possession of the minor child. In
23 order to protect the minor child from abuse, neglect, or
24 unwarranted separation from the person who has been the
25 minor child's primary caretaker, or to otherwise protect
26 the well-being of the minor child, the court may do either

HB0492- 276 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 or both of the following: (i) grant petitioner physical
2 care or possession of the minor child, or both, or (ii)
3 order respondent to return a minor child to, or not remove
4 a minor child from, the physical care of a parent or person
5 in loco parentis.
6 If a court finds, after a hearing, that respondent has
7 committed abuse (as defined in Section 103) of a minor
8 child, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that
9 awarding physical care to respondent would not be in the
10 minor child's best interest.
11 (6) Temporary allocation of parental responsibilities:
12 significant decision-making. Award temporary
13 decision-making responsibility to petitioner in accordance
14 with this Section, the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
15 Marriage Act, the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015, and this
16 State's Uniform Child-Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement
17 Act.
18 If a court finds, after a hearing, that respondent has
19 committed abuse (as defined in Section 103) of a minor
20 child, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that
21 awarding temporary significant decision-making
22 responsibility to respondent would not be in the child's
23 best interest.
24 (7) Parenting time. Determine the parenting time, if
25 any, of respondent in any case in which the court awards
26 physical care or allocates temporary significant

HB0492- 277 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 decision-making responsibility of a minor child to
2 petitioner. The court shall restrict or deny respondent's
3 parenting time with a minor child if the court finds that
4 respondent has done or is likely to do any of the
5 following: (i) abuse or endanger the minor child during
6 parenting time; (ii) use the parenting time as an
7 opportunity to abuse or harass petitioner or petitioner's
8 family or household members; (iii) improperly conceal or
9 detain the minor child; or (iv) otherwise act in a manner
10 that is not in the best interests of the minor child. The
11 court shall not be limited by the standards set forth in
12 Section 603.10 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
13 Marriage Act. If the court grants parenting time, the order
14 shall specify dates and times for the parenting time to
15 take place or other specific parameters or conditions that
16 are appropriate. No order for parenting time shall refer
17 merely to the term "reasonable parenting time".
18 Petitioner may deny respondent access to the minor
19 child if, when respondent arrives for parenting time,
20 respondent is under the influence of drugs or alcohol and
21 constitutes a threat to the safety and well-being of
22 petitioner or petitioner's minor children or is behaving in
23 a violent or abusive manner.
24 If necessary to protect any member of petitioner's
25 family or household from future abuse, respondent shall be
26 prohibited from coming to petitioner's residence to meet

HB0492- 278 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 the minor child for parenting time, and the parties shall
2 submit to the court their recommendations for reasonable
3 alternative arrangements for parenting time. A person may
4 be approved to supervise parenting time only after filing
5 an affidavit accepting that responsibility and
6 acknowledging accountability to the court.
7 (8) Removal or concealment of minor child. Prohibit
8 respondent from removing a minor child from the State or
9 concealing the child within the State.
10 (9) Order to appear. Order the respondent to appear in
11 court, alone or with a minor child, to prevent abuse,
12 neglect, removal or concealment of the child, to return the
13 child to the custody or care of the petitioner or to permit
14 any court-ordered interview or examination of the child or
15 the respondent.
16 (10) Possession of personal property. Grant petitioner
17 exclusive possession of personal property and, if
18 respondent has possession or control, direct respondent to
19 promptly make it available to petitioner, if:
20 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
21 property; or
22 (ii) the parties own the property jointly; sharing
23 it would risk abuse of petitioner by respondent or is
24 impracticable; and the balance of hardships favors
25 temporary possession by petitioner.
26 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the property

HB0492- 279 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 is that it is marital property, the court may award
2 petitioner temporary possession thereof under the
3 standards of subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph only if a
4 proper proceeding has been filed under the Illinois
5 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as now or
6 hereafter amended.
7 No order under this provision shall affect title to
8 property.
9 (11) Protection of property. Forbid the respondent
10 from taking, transferring, encumbering, concealing,
11 damaging or otherwise disposing of any real or personal
12 property, except as explicitly authorized by the court, if:
13 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
14 property; or
15 (ii) the parties own the property jointly, and the
16 balance of hardships favors granting this remedy.
17 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the property
18 is that it is marital property, the court may grant
19 petitioner relief under subparagraph (ii) of this
20 paragraph only if a proper proceeding has been filed under
21 the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
22 now or hereafter amended.
23 The court may further prohibit respondent from
24 improperly using the financial or other resources of an
25 aged member of the family or household for the profit or
26 advantage of respondent or of any other person.

HB0492- 280 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 (11.5) Protection of animals. Grant the petitioner the
2 exclusive care, custody, or control of any animal owned,
3 possessed, leased, kept, or held by either the petitioner
4 or the respondent or a minor child residing in the
5 residence or household of either the petitioner or the
6 respondent and order the respondent to stay away from the
7 animal and forbid the respondent from taking,
8 transferring, encumbering, concealing, harming, or
9 otherwise disposing of the animal.
10 (12) Order for payment of support. Order respondent to
11 pay temporary support for the petitioner or any child in
12 the petitioner's care or over whom the petitioner has been
13 allocated parental responsibility, when the respondent has
14 a legal obligation to support that person, in accordance
15 with the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act,
16 which shall govern, among other matters, the amount of
17 support, payment through the clerk and withholding of
18 income to secure payment. An order for child support may be
19 granted to a petitioner with lawful physical care of a
20 child, or an order or agreement for physical care of a
21 child, prior to entry of an order allocating significant
22 decision-making responsibility. Such a support order shall
23 expire upon entry of a valid order allocating parental
24 responsibility differently and vacating the petitioner's
25 significant decision-making authority, unless otherwise
26 provided in the order.

HB0492- 281 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 (13) Order for payment of losses. Order respondent to
2 pay petitioner for losses suffered as a direct result of
3 the abuse, neglect, or exploitation. Such losses shall
4 include, but not be limited to, medical expenses, lost
5 earnings or other support, repair or replacement of
6 property damaged or taken, reasonable attorney's fees,
7 court costs and moving or other travel expenses, including
8 additional reasonable expenses for temporary shelter and
9 restaurant meals.
10 (i) Losses affecting family needs. If a party is
11 entitled to seek maintenance, child support or
12 property distribution from the other party under the
13 Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
14 now or hereafter amended, the court may order
15 respondent to reimburse petitioner's actual losses, to
16 the extent that such reimbursement would be
17 "appropriate temporary relief", as authorized by
18 subsection (a)(3) of Section 501 of that Act.
19 (ii) Recovery of expenses. In the case of an
20 improper concealment or removal of a minor child, the
21 court may order respondent to pay the reasonable
22 expenses incurred or to be incurred in the search for
23 and recovery of the minor child, including but not
24 limited to legal fees, court costs, private
25 investigator fees, and travel costs.
26 (14) Prohibition of entry. Prohibit the respondent

HB0492- 282 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 from entering or remaining in the residence or household
2 while the respondent is under the influence of alcohol or
3 drugs and constitutes a threat to the safety and well-being
4 of the petitioner or the petitioner's children.
5 (14.5) Prohibition of firearm possession.
6 (a) Prohibit a respondent against whom an order of
7 protection was issued from possessing any firearms
8 during the duration of the order if the order:
9 (1) was issued after a hearing of which such
10 person received actual notice, and at which such
11 person had an opportunity to participate;
12 (2) restrains such person from harassing,
13 stalking, or threatening an intimate partner of
14 such person or child of such intimate partner or
15 person, or engaging in other conduct that would
16 place an intimate partner in reasonable fear of
17 bodily injury to the partner or child; and
18 (3)(i) includes a finding that such person
19 represents a credible threat to the physical
20 safety of such intimate partner or child; or (ii)
21 by its terms explicitly prohibits the use,
22 attempted use, or threatened use of physical force
23 against such intimate partner or child that would
24 reasonably be expected to cause bodily injury.
25 Any Firearm Owner's Identification Card in the
26 possession of the respondent, except as provided in

HB0492- 283 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 subsection (b), shall be ordered by the court to be
2 turned over to the local law enforcement agency. The
3 local law enforcement agency shall immediately mail
4 the card to the Department of State Police Firearm
5 Owner's Identification Card Office for safekeeping.
6 The court shall issue a warrant for seizure of any
7 firearm in the possession of the respondent, to be kept
8 by the local law enforcement agency for safekeeping,
9 except as provided in subsection (b). The period of
10 safekeeping shall be for the duration of the order of
11 protection. The firearm or firearms and Firearm
12 Owner's Identification Card, if unexpired, shall at
13 the respondent's request, be returned to the
14 respondent at the end of the order of protection. It is
15 the respondent's responsibility to notify the
16 Department of State Police Firearm Owner's
17 Identification Card Office.
18 (b) If the respondent is a peace officer as defined
19 in Section 2-13 of the Criminal Code of 2012, the court
20 shall order that any firearms used by the respondent in
21 the performance of his or her duties as a peace officer
22 be surrendered to the chief law enforcement executive
23 of the agency in which the respondent is employed, who
24 shall retain the firearms for safekeeping for the
25 duration of the order of protection.
26 (c) Upon expiration of the period of safekeeping,

HB0492- 284 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 if the firearms or Firearm Owner's Identification Card
2 cannot be returned to respondent because respondent
3 cannot be located, fails to respond to requests to
4 retrieve the firearms, or is not lawfully eligible to
5 possess a firearm, upon petition from the local law
6 enforcement agency, the court may order the local law
7 enforcement agency to destroy the firearms, use the
8 firearms for training purposes, or for any other
9 application as deemed appropriate by the local law
10 enforcement agency; or that the firearms be turned over
11 to a third party who is lawfully eligible to possess
12 firearms, and who does not reside with respondent.
13 (15) Prohibition of access to records. If an order of
14 protection prohibits respondent from having contact with
15 the minor child, or if petitioner's address is omitted
16 under subsection (b) of Section 203, or if necessary to
17 prevent abuse or wrongful removal or concealment of a minor
18 child, the order shall deny respondent access to, and
19 prohibit respondent from inspecting, obtaining, or
20 attempting to inspect or obtain, school or any other
21 records of the minor child who is in the care of
22 petitioner.
23 (16) Order for payment of shelter services. Order
24 respondent to reimburse a shelter providing temporary
25 housing and counseling services to the petitioner for the
26 cost of the services, as certified by the shelter and

HB0492- 285 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 deemed reasonable by the court.
2 (17) Order for injunctive relief. Enter injunctive
3 relief necessary or appropriate to prevent further abuse of
4 a family or household member or further abuse, neglect, or
5 exploitation of a high-risk adult with disabilities or to
6 effectuate one of the granted remedies, if supported by the
7 balance of hardships. If the harm to be prevented by the
8 injunction is abuse or any other harm that one of the
9 remedies listed in paragraphs (1) through (16) of this
10 subsection is designed to prevent, no further evidence is
11 necessary that the harm is an irreparable injury.
12 (c) Relevant factors; findings.
13 (1) In determining whether to grant a specific remedy,
14 other than payment of support, the court shall consider
15 relevant factors, including but not limited to the
16 following:
17 (i) the nature, frequency, severity, pattern and
18 consequences of the respondent's past abuse, neglect
19 or exploitation of the petitioner or any family or
20 household member, including the concealment of his or
21 her location in order to evade service of process or
22 notice, and the likelihood of danger of future abuse,
23 neglect, or exploitation to petitioner or any member of
24 petitioner's or respondent's family or household; and
25 (ii) the danger that any minor child will be abused
26 or neglected or improperly relocated from the

HB0492- 286 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 jurisdiction, improperly concealed within the State or
2 improperly separated from the child's primary
3 caretaker.
4 (2) In comparing relative hardships resulting to the
5 parties from loss of possession of the family home, the
6 court shall consider relevant factors, including but not
7 limited to the following:
8 (i) availability, accessibility, cost, safety,
9 adequacy, location and other characteristics of
10 alternate housing for each party and any minor child or
11 dependent adult in the party's care;
12 (ii) the effect on the party's employment; and
13 (iii) the effect on the relationship of the party,
14 and any minor child or dependent adult in the party's
15 care, to family, school, church and community.
16 (3) Subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph
17 (4) of this subsection, the court shall make its findings
18 in an official record or in writing, and shall at a minimum
19 set forth the following:
20 (i) That the court has considered the applicable
21 relevant factors described in paragraphs (1) and (2) of
22 this subsection.
23 (ii) Whether the conduct or actions of respondent,
24 unless prohibited, will likely cause irreparable harm
25 or continued abuse.
26 (iii) Whether it is necessary to grant the

HB0492- 287 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 requested relief in order to protect petitioner or
2 other alleged abused persons.
3 (4) For purposes of issuing an ex parte emergency order
4 of protection, the court, as an alternative to or as a
5 supplement to making the findings described in paragraphs
6 (c)(3)(i) through (c)(3)(iii) of this subsection, may use
7 the following procedure:
8 When a verified petition for an emergency order of
9 protection in accordance with the requirements of Sections
10 203 and 217 is presented to the court, the court shall
11 examine petitioner on oath or affirmation. An emergency
12 order of protection shall be issued by the court if it
13 appears from the contents of the petition and the
14 examination of petitioner that the averments are
15 sufficient to indicate abuse by respondent and to support
16 the granting of relief under the issuance of the emergency
17 order of protection.
18 (5) Never married parties. No rights or
19 responsibilities for a minor child born outside of marriage
20 attach to a putative father until a father and child
21 relationship has been established under the Illinois
22 Parentage Act of 1984, the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015,
23 the Illinois Public Aid Code, Section 12 of the Vital
24 Records Act, the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Probate
25 Act of 1985, the Revised Uniform Reciprocal Enforcement of
26 Support Act, the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act, the

HB0492- 288 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1 Expedited Child Support Act of 1990, any judicial,
2 administrative, or other act of another state or territory,
3 any other Illinois statute, or by any foreign nation
4 establishing the father and child relationship, any other
5 proceeding substantially in conformity with the Personal
6 Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of
7 1996 (Pub. L. 104-193), or where both parties appeared in
8 open court or at an administrative hearing acknowledging
9 under oath or admitting by affirmation the existence of a
10 father and child relationship. Absent such an
11 adjudication, finding, or acknowledgement, no putative
12 father shall be granted temporary allocation of parental
13 responsibilities, including parenting time with the minor
14 child, or physical care and possession of the minor child,
15 nor shall an order of payment for support of the minor
16 child be entered.
17 (d) Balance of hardships; findings. If the court finds that
18the balance of hardships does not support the granting of a
19remedy governed by paragraph (2), (3), (10), (11), or (16) of
20subsection (b) of this Section, which may require such
21balancing, the court's findings shall so indicate and shall
22include a finding as to whether granting the remedy will result
23in hardship to respondent that would substantially outweigh the
24hardship to petitioner from denial of the remedy. The findings
25shall be an official record or in writing.
26 (e) Denial of remedies. Denial of any remedy shall not be

HB0492- 289 -LRB100 05310 SLF 15321 b
1based, in whole or in part, on evidence that:
2 (1) Respondent has cause for any use of force, unless
3 that cause satisfies the standards for justifiable use of
4 force provided by Article 7 of the Criminal Code of 2012;
5 (2) Respondent was voluntarily intoxicated;
6 (3) Petitioner acted in self-defense or defense of
7 another, provided that, if petitioner utilized force, such
8 force was justifiable under Article 7 of the Criminal Code
9 of 2012;
10 (4) Petitioner did not act in self-defense or defense
11 of another;
12 (5) Petitioner left the residence or household to avoid
13 further abuse, neglect, or exploitation by respondent;
14 (6) Petitioner did not leave the residence or household
15 to avoid further abuse, neglect, or exploitation by
16 respondent;
17 (7) Conduct by any family or household member excused
18 the abuse, neglect, or exploitation by respondent, unless
19 that same conduct would have excused such abuse, neglect,
20 or exploitation if the parties had not been family or
21 household members.
