11 | (1) If parentage is at issue in any proceeding under this | ||||||
12 | Act, other than cases involving those exceptions to the | ||||||

14 | the
Illinois Parentage Act of 1984 shall apply and the court | ||||||
15 | shall enter orders
consistent with that Act. If it appears at | ||||||
16 | any hearing that a parent or
any other person named in the | ||||||
17 | petition, liable under the law for the
support of the minor, is | ||||||
18 | able to contribute to his or her support, the court
shall enter | ||||||
19 | an order requiring that parent or other person to pay the clerk | ||||||
20 | of
the court, or to the guardian or custodian appointed under | ||||||
21 | Sections 2-27,

If the court

petition, liable | ||||||
25 | under the law for the support of the minor, is able to
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | contribute to help defray the costs associated with the minor's | ||||||
2 | detention in a
county or regional detention center, the court | ||||||
3 | shall enter an order requiring
that parent or other person to | ||||||
4 | pay the clerk of the court a reasonable sum for
the care and | ||||||
5 | support of the minor.
The court
may require reasonable security | ||||||
6 | for the payments. Upon failure to pay, the
court may enforce | ||||||
7 | obedience to the order by a proceeding as for contempt of
| ||||||
8 | court.
| ||||||
9 | If it appears that the person liable for the support of the | ||||||
10 | minor is
able to contribute to legal fees for representation of | ||||||
11 | the minor, the court
shall enter an order requiring that person | ||||||
12 | to pay a reasonable sum for the
representation, to the attorney | ||||||
13 | providing the representation or to the
clerk of the court for | ||||||
14 | deposit in the appropriate account or fund. The sum
may be paid | ||||||
15 | as the court directs, and the payment thereof secured and
| ||||||
16 | enforced as provided in this Section for support.
| ||||||
17 | If it appears at the detention or shelter care hearing of a | ||||||
18 | minor before
the court under Section 5-501 that a parent or any | ||||||
19 | other person
liable for
support of the minor is able to | ||||||
20 | contribute to his or her support, that parent
or other person | ||||||
21 | shall be required to pay a fee for room and board at a rate not
| ||||||
22 | to exceed $10 per day established, with the concurrence of the | ||||||
23 | chief judge of
the judicial circuit, by the county board of the | ||||||
24 | county in which the minor is
detained unless the court | ||||||
25 | determines that it is in the best interest and
welfare of the | ||||||
26 | minor to waive the fee. The concurrence of the chief judge
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | shall be in the form of an administrative order. Each week, on | ||||||
2 | a day
designated by the clerk of the circuit court, that parent | ||||||
3 | or other person shall
pay the clerk for the minor's room and | ||||||
4 | board. All fees for room and board
collected by the circuit | ||||||
5 | court clerk shall be disbursed into the separate
county fund | ||||||
6 | under Section 6-7.
| ||||||
7 | Upon application, the court shall waive liability for | ||||||
8 | support or legal fees
under this Section if the parent or other | ||||||
9 | person establishes that he or she is
indigent and unable to pay | ||||||
10 | the incurred liability, and the court may reduce or
waive | ||||||
11 | liability if the parent or other person establishes | ||||||
12 | circumstances showing
that full payment of support or legal | ||||||
13 | fees would result in financial hardship
to the person or his or | ||||||
14 | her family.
| ||||||
15 | (2) When a person so ordered to pay for the care and | ||||||
16 | support of a minor
is employed for wages, salary or commission, | ||||||
17 | the court may order him to
make the support payments for which | ||||||
18 | he is liable under this Act out of his
wages, salary or | ||||||
19 | commission and to assign so much thereof as will pay the
| ||||||
20 | support. The court may also order him to make discovery to the | ||||||
21 | court as to
his place of employment and the amounts earned by | ||||||
22 | him. Upon his failure to
obey the orders of court he may be | ||||||
23 | punished as for contempt of court.
| ||||||
24 | (3) If the minor is a recipient of public aid under the | ||||||
25 | Illinois Public
Aid Code, the court shall order that payments | ||||||
26 | made by a parent or through
assignment of his wages, salary or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | commission be made directly to (a) the
Department of Healthcare | ||||||
2 | and Family Services if the minor is a recipient of aid under
| ||||||
3 | Article V of the Code, (b) the Department of Human Services if | ||||||
4 | the
minor is a recipient of aid under Article IV of the Code, | ||||||
5 | or (c)
the local governmental unit
responsible for the support | ||||||
6 | of the minor if he is a recipient under
Articles VI or VII of | ||||||
7 | the Code. The order shall permit the
Department of Healthcare | ||||||
8 | and Family Services, the Department of Human Services, or the | ||||||
9 | local
governmental unit, as the case may
be, to direct that | ||||||
10 | subsequent payments be made directly to the guardian or
| ||||||
11 | custodian of the minor, or to some other person or agency in | ||||||
12 | the minor's
behalf, upon removal of the minor from the public | ||||||
13 | aid rolls; and upon such
direction and removal of the minor | ||||||
14 | from the public aid rolls, the
Department of Healthcare and | ||||||
15 | Family Services, Department of Human Services, or local
| ||||||
16 | governmental unit, as the case requires, shall give
written | ||||||
17 | notice of such action to the court. Payments received by the
| ||||||
18 | Department of Healthcare and Family Services, Department of | ||||||
19 | Human Services, or local
governmental unit are to be
covered, | ||||||
20 | respectively, into the General Revenue Fund of the State | ||||||
21 | Treasury
or General Assistance Fund of the governmental unit, | ||||||
22 | as provided in Section
10-19 of the Illinois Public Aid Code.
