based upon a plea of guilty or finding of guilt for any other

an undue burden on the victim, the court may reduce or waive
the fine. In this Section, "victim" shall not be construed to
include the defendant.
Section 5-10. Schedules; payment.
(a) In each case, the court shall order an assessment, as
set forth in this Act, for a defendant to pay in addition to
any fine, restitution, or forfeiture ordered by the court when
the defendant is convicted of, pleads guilty to, or is placed
on court supervision for a violation of a statute of this State
or a similar local ordinance. The court may order a fine,
restitution, or forfeiture on any violation that is being
sentenced but shall order only one assessment from the Schedule
of Assessments 1 through 13 of this Act for all sentenced
violations in a case, that being the schedule applicable to the
highest classified offense violation that is being sentenced,
plus any conditional assessments under Section 15-70 of this
Act applicable to any sentenced violation in the case.
(b) If the court finds that the schedule of assessments
will cause an undue burden on any victim in a case or if the
court orders community service or some other punishment in
place of the applicable schedule of assessments, the court may
reduce the amount set forth in the applicable schedule of
assessments or not order the applicable schedule of
assessments. If the court reduces the amount set forth in the
applicable schedule of assessments, then all recipients of the
funds collected will receive a prorated amount to reflect the
reduction.
(c) The court may order the assessments to be paid
forthwith or within a specified period of time or in
installments.
(c-3) Excluding any ordered conditional assessment, if the
assessment is not paid within the period of probation,
conditional discharge, or supervision to which the defendant
was originally sentenced, the court may extend the period of
probation, conditional discharge, or supervision under Section
5-6-2 or 5-6-3.1 of the Unified Code of Corrections, as
applicable, until the assessment is paid or until successful
completion of public or community service set forth in
subsection (b) of Section 5-20 of this Act or the successful
completion of the substance abuse intervention or treatment
program set forth in subsection (c-5) of this Section.
(c-5) Excluding any ordered conditional assessment, the
court may suspend the collection of the assessment; provided,
the defendant agrees to enter a substance abuse intervention or
treatment program approved by the court; and further provided
that the defendant agrees to pay for all or some portion of the
costs associated with the intervention or treatment program. In
this case, the collection of the assessment shall be suspended
during the defendant's participation in the approved
intervention or treatment program. Upon successful completion
of the program, the defendant may apply to the court to reduce
the assessment imposed under this Section by any amount
actually paid by the defendant for his or her participation in
the program. The court shall not reduce the assessment under
this subsection unless the defendant establishes to the
satisfaction of the court that he or she has successfully
completed the intervention or treatment program. If the
defendant's participation is for any reason terminated before
his or her successful completion of the intervention or
treatment program, collection of the entire assessment imposed
under this Act shall be enforced. Nothing in this Section shall
be deemed to affect or suspend any other fines, restitution
costs, forfeitures, or assessments imposed under this or any
other Act.
(d) Except as provided in Section 5-15 of this Act, the
defendant shall pay to the clerk of the court and the clerk
shall remit the assessment to the appropriate entity as set
forth in the ordered schedule of assessments within one month
of its receipt.
(e) Unless a court ordered payment schedule is implemented
or the assessment requirements of this Act are waived under a
court order, the clerk of the circuit court may add to any
unpaid assessments under this Act a delinquency amount equal to
5% of the unpaid assessments that remain unpaid after 30 days,
10% of the unpaid assessments that remain unpaid after 60 days,
and 15% of the unpaid assessments that remain unpaid after 90
days. Notice to those parties may be made by signage posting or
publication. The additional delinquency amounts collected
under this Section shall be used to defray additional
administrative costs incurred by the clerk of the circuit court
in collecting unpaid assessments.
Section 5-15. Service provider costs. Unless otherwise
provided in Article 15 of this Act, the defendant shall pay
service provider costs to the entity that provided the service.
Service provider costs are not eligible for credit for time
served, substitution of community service, or waiver. The
circuit court may, through administrative order or local rule,
appoint the clerk of the court as the receiver and remitter of
certain service provider costs, which may include, but are not
limited to, probation fees, traffic school fees, or drug or
alcohol testing fees.
Section 5-20. Credit; time served; community service.
(a) Any credit for time served prior to sentencing that
reduces the amount a defendant is required to pay shall be
deducted first from the fine, if any, ordered by the court. Any
remainder of the credit shall be equally divided between the
assessments indicated in the ordered schedule and conditional
assessments.
(b) Excluding any ordered conditional assessment, a
defendant who has been ordered to pay an assessment may
petition the court to convert all or part of the assessment
into court-approved public or community service. One hour of
public or community service shall be equivalent to $4 of
assessment. The performance of this public or community service
shall be a condition of probation, conditional discharge, or
supervision and shall be in addition to the performance of any
other period of public or community service ordered by the
court or required by law.
Article 10. Funds

(a) All money collected by the Clerk of the Circuit Court
under Article 15 of this Act shall be remitted as directed in

Section 905-60. The Juvenile Court Act of 1987 is amended
by changing Section 5-915 as follows:
(705 ILCS 405/5-915)
Sec. 5-915. Expungement of juvenile law enforcement and
court records.
(0.05) For purposes of this Section:
"Dissemination" or "disseminate" means to publish,
produce, print, manufacture, distribute, sell, lease,
exhibit, broadcast, display, transmit, or otherwise share
information in any format so as to make the information
accessible to others.
"Expunge" means to physically destroy the records and
to obliterate the minor's name and juvenile court records
from any official index, public record, or electronic
database. No evidence of the juvenile court records may be
retained by any law enforcement agency, the juvenile court,
or by any municipal, county, or State agency or department.
Nothing in this Act shall require the physical destruction
of the internal office records, files, or databases
maintained by a State's Attorney's Office or other
prosecutor or by the Office of the Secretary of State.
"Juvenile court record" includes, but is not limited
to:
(a) all documents filed in or maintained by the
juvenile court pertaining to a specific incident,
proceeding, or individual;
(b) all documents relating to a specific incident,
proceeding, or individual made available to or maintained
by probation officers;
(c) all documents, video or audio tapes,
photographs, and exhibits admitted into evidence at
juvenile court hearings; or
(d) all documents, transcripts, records, reports
or other evidence prepared by, maintained by, or released
by any municipal, county, or State state agency or
department, in any format, if indicating involvement with
the juvenile court relating to a specific incident,
proceeding, or individual.
"Law enforcement record" includes, but is not limited
to, records of arrest, station adjustments, fingerprints,
probation adjustments, the issuance of a notice to appear,
or any other records or documents maintained by any law
enforcement agency relating to a minor suspected of
committing an offense or evidence of interaction with law
enforcement.
(0.1) (a) The Department of State Police and all law
enforcement agencies within the State shall automatically
expunge, on or before January 1 of each year, all law
enforcement records relating to events occurring before an
individual's 18th birthday if:
(1) one year or more has elapsed since the date of the
arrest or law enforcement interaction documented in the
records;
(2) no petition for delinquency or criminal charges
were filed with the clerk of the circuit court relating to
the arrest or law enforcement interaction documented in the
records; and
(3) 6 months have elapsed without an additional
subsequent arrest or filing of a petition for delinquency
or criminal charges whether related or not to the arrest or
law enforcement interaction documented in the records.
(b) If the law enforcement agency is unable to verify
satisfaction of conditions (2) and (3) of this subsection
(0.1), records that satisfy condition (1) of this subsection
(0.1) shall be automatically expunged if the records relate to
an offense that if committed by an adult would not be an
offense classified as Class 2 felony or higher, an offense
under Article 11 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or Criminal Code
of 2012, or an offense under Section 12-13, 12-14, 12-14.1,
12-15, or 12-16 of the Criminal Code of 1961.
(0.2) (a) Upon dismissal of a petition alleging delinquency
or upon a finding of not delinquent, the successful termination
of an order of supervision, or an adjudication for an offense
which would be a Class B misdemeanor, Class C misdemeanor, or a
petty or business offense if committed by an adult, the court
shall automatically order the expungement of the juvenile court
and law enforcement records within 60 business days.
(b) If the chief law enforcement officer of the agency, or
his or her designee, certifies in writing that certain
information is needed for a pending investigation involving the
commission of a felony, that information, and information
identifying the juvenile, may be retained in an intelligence
file until the investigation is terminated or for one
additional year, whichever is sooner. Retention of a portion of
a juvenile's law enforcement record does not disqualify the
remainder of his or her record from immediate automatic
expungement.
(0.3) (a) Upon an adjudication of delinquency based on any
offense except a disqualified offense, the juvenile court shall
automatically order the expungement of the juvenile records 2
years after the juvenile's case was closed if no delinquency or
criminal proceeding is pending and the person has had no
subsequent delinquency adjudication or criminal conviction.
The court shall automatically order the expungement of the
juvenile court and law enforcement records within 60 business
days. For the purposes of this subsection (0.3), "disqualified
offense" means any of the following offenses: Section 8-1.2,
9-1, 9-1.2, 9-2, 9-2.1, 9-3, 9-3.2, 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, 10-3.1,
10-4, 10-5, 10-9, 11-1.20, 11-1.30, 11-1.40, 11-1.50, 11-1.60,
11-6, 11-6.5, 12-2, 12-3.05, 12-3.3, 12-4.4a, 12-5.02, 12-6.2,
12-6.5, 12-7.1, 12-7.5, 12-20.5, 12-32, 12-33, 12-34, 12-34.5,
18-1, 18-2, 18-3, 18-4, 18-6, 19-3, 19-6, 20-1, 20-1.1, 24-1.2,
24-1.2-5, 24-1.5, 24-3A, 24-3B, 24-3.2, 24-3.8, 24-3.9,
29D-14.9, 29D-20, 30-1, 31-1a, 32-4a, or 33A-2 of the Criminal
Code of 2012, or subsection (b) of Section 8-1, paragraph (4)
of subsection (a) of Section 11-14.4, subsection (a-5) of
Section 12-3.1, paragraph (1), (2), or (3) of subsection (a) of
Section 12-6, subsection (a-3) or (a-5) of Section 12-7.3,
paragraph (1) or (2) of subsection (a) of Section 12-7.4,
subparagraph (i) of paragraph (1) of subsection (a) of Section
12-9, subparagraph (H) of paragraph (3) of subsection (a) of
Section 24-1.6, paragraph (1) of subsection (a) of Section
25-1, or subsection (a-7) of Section 31-1 of the Criminal Code
of 2012.
(b) If the chief law enforcement officer of the agency, or
his or her designee, certifies in writing that certain
information is needed for a pending investigation involving the
commission of a felony, that information, and information
identifying the juvenile, may be retained in an intelligence
file until the investigation is terminated or for one
additional year, whichever is sooner. Retention of a portion of
a juvenile's law enforcement record does not disqualify the
remainder of his or her record from immediate automatic
expungement.
(1) Nothing in this subsection (1) precludes an eligible
minor from obtaining expungement under subsection subsections
(0.1), (0.2), or (0.3). Whenever a person has been arrested,
charged, or adjudicated delinquent for an incident occurring
before his or her 18th birthday that if committed by an adult
would be an offense, and that person's records are not eligible
for automatic expungement under subsection subsections (0.1),
(0.2), or (0.3), the person may petition the court at any time
for expungement of law enforcement records and juvenile court
records relating to the incident and, upon termination of all
juvenile court proceedings relating to that incident, the court
shall order the expungement of all records in the possession of
the Department of State Police, the clerk of the circuit court,
and law enforcement agencies relating to the incident, but only
in any of the following circumstances:
(a) the minor was arrested and no petition for
delinquency was filed with the clerk of the circuit court;
(a-5) the minor was charged with an offense and the
petition or petitions were dismissed without a finding of
delinquency;
(b) the minor was charged with an offense and was found
not delinquent of that offense;
(c) the minor was placed under supervision pursuant to
Section 5-615, and the order of supervision has since been
successfully terminated; or
(d) the minor was adjudicated for an offense which
would be a Class B misdemeanor, Class C misdemeanor, or a
petty or business offense if committed by an adult.
(1.5) January 1, 2015 (Public Act 98-637) The Department of
State Police shall allow a person to use the Access and Review
process, established in the Department of State Police, for
verifying that his or her law enforcement records relating to
incidents occurring before his or her 18th birthday eligible
under this Act have been expunged.
(1.6) (Blank). January 1, 2015 (Public Act 98-637) January
1, 2015 (Public Act 98-637)
(1.7) (Blank).
(1.8) (Blank).
(2) Any person whose delinquency adjudications are not
eligible for automatic expungement under subsection (0.3) of
this Section may petition the court to expunge all law
enforcement records relating to any incidents occurring before
his or her 18th birthday which did not result in proceedings in
criminal court and all juvenile court records with respect to
any adjudications except those based upon first degree murder
or an offense under Article 11 of the Criminal Code of 2012 if
the person is required to register under the Sex Offender
Registration Act; provided that:
(a) (blank); or
(b) 2 years have elapsed since all juvenile court
proceedings relating to him or her have been terminated and
his or her commitment to the Department of Juvenile Justice
under this Act has been terminated.
(2.5) If a minor is arrested and no petition for
delinquency is filed with the clerk of the circuit court at the
time the minor is released from custody, the youth officer, if
applicable, or other designated person from the arresting
agency, shall notify verbally and in writing to the minor or
the minor's parents or guardians that the minor shall have an
arrest record and shall provide the minor and the minor's
parents or guardians with an expungement information packet,
information regarding this State's expungement laws including
a petition to expunge juvenile records obtained from the clerk
of the circuit court.
(2.6) If a minor is referred to court then at the time of
sentencing or dismissal of the case, or successful completion
of supervision, the judge shall inform the delinquent minor of
his or her rights regarding expungement and the clerk of the
circuit court shall provide an expungement information packet
to the minor, written in plain language, including information
regarding this State's expungement laws and a petition for
expungement, a sample of a completed petition, expungement
instructions that shall include information informing the
minor that (i) once the case is expunged, it shall be treated
as if it never occurred, (ii) he or she may apply to have
petition fees waived, (iii) once he or she obtains an
expungement, he or she may not be required to disclose that he
or she had a juvenile record, and (iv) if petitioning he or she
may file the petition on his or her own or with the assistance
of an attorney. The failure of the judge to inform the
delinquent minor of his or her right to petition for
expungement as provided by law does not create a substantive
right, nor is that failure grounds for: (i) a reversal of an
adjudication of delinquency, (ii) a new trial; or (iii) an
appeal.
(2.7) (Blank).
(2.8) The petition for expungement for subsection (1) and
(2) may include multiple offenses on the same petition and
shall be substantially in the following form:

prohibited by a court or fails to commit an act which was
ordered by a court in violation of:

(iii) any other remedy when the act constitutes a
crime against the protected parties as the term
protected parties is defined in Section 112A-4 of the
Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963; and

served notice of the contents of the order, pursuant to the
Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986 or any substantially
similar statute of another state, tribe or United States
territory, or otherwise has acquired actual knowledge of
the contents of the order.
An order of protection issued by a state, tribal or
territorial court related to domestic or family violence shall
be deemed valid if the issuing court had jurisdiction over the
parties and matter under the law of the state, tribe or
territory. There shall be a presumption of validity where an
order is certified and appears authentic on its face. For
purposes of this Section, an "order of protection" may have
been issued in a criminal or civil proceeding.
(a-5) Failure to provide reasonable notice and opportunity
to be heard shall be an affirmative defense to any charge or

1963. The court shall impose a minimum penalty of 24 hours
imprisonment for defendant's second or subsequent violation of
any order of protection; unless the court explicitly finds that
an increased penalty or such period of imprisonment would be
manifestly unjust. In addition to any other penalties, the
court may order the defendant to pay a fine as authorized under
Section 5-9-1 of the Unified Code of Corrections or to make
restitution to the victim under Section 5-5-6 of the Unified
Code of Corrections. In addition to any other penalties,
including those imposed by Section 5-9-1.5 of the Unified Code
of Corrections, the court shall impose an additional fine of

apply to all actions taken under the rules so promulgated.
(i) (1) A person required to provide a blood, saliva, or
tissue specimen shall cooperate with the collection of the
specimen and any deliberate act by that person intended to
impede, delay or stop the collection of the blood, saliva,
or tissue specimen is a Class 4 felony.
(2) In the event that a person's DNA specimen is not
adequate for any reason, the person shall provide another
DNA specimen for analysis. Duly authorized law enforcement
and corrections personnel may employ reasonable force in
cases in which an individual refuses to provide a DNA
specimen required under this Act.
(j) (Blank). Any person required by subsection (a), or any
person who was previously required by subsection (a-3.2), to
submit specimens of blood, saliva, or tissue to the Illinois
Department of State Police for analysis and categorization into

Identification System Fund shall be used by Illinois State
Police crime laboratories as designated by the Director of
State Police. These funds shall be in addition to any
allocations made pursuant to existing laws and shall be
designated for the exclusive use of State crime
laboratories. These uses may include, but are not limited
to, the following:
(A) Costs incurred in providing analysis and
genetic marker categorization as required by
subsection (d).
(B) Costs incurred in maintaining genetic marker
groupings as required by subsection (e).
(C) Costs incurred in the purchase and maintenance
of equipment for use in performing analyses.
(D) Costs incurred in continuing research and
development of new techniques for analysis and genetic
marker categorization.
(E) Costs incurred in continuing education,
training, and professional development of forensic
scientists regularly employed by these laboratories.
(l) The failure of a person to provide a specimen, or of
any person or agency to collect a specimen, shall in no way
alter the obligation of the person to submit such specimen, or
the authority of the Illinois Department of State Police or
persons designated by the Department to collect the specimen,
or the authority of the Illinois Department of State Police to
accept, analyze and maintain the specimen or to maintain or
upload results of genetic marker grouping analysis information
into a State or national database.
(m) If any provision of this amendatory Act of the 93rd
General Assembly is held unconstitutional or otherwise
invalid, the remainder of this amendatory Act of the 93rd
General Assembly is not affected.
(n) Neither the Department of State Police, the Division of
Forensic Services, nor any laboratory of the Division of
Forensic Services may contract out forensic testing for the
purpose of an active investigation or a matter pending before a
court of competent jurisdiction without the written consent of
the prosecuting agency. For the purposes of this subsection
(n), "forensic testing" includes the analysis of physical
evidence in an investigation or other proceeding for the
prosecution of a violation of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the
Criminal Code of 2012 or for matters adjudicated under the
Juvenile Court Act of 1987, and includes the use of forensic
databases and databanks, including DNA, firearm, and
fingerprint databases, and expert testimony.
(o) Mistake does not invalidate a database match. The
detention, arrest, or conviction of a person based upon a
database match or database information is not invalidated if it
is determined that the specimen was obtained or placed in the
database by mistake.
(p) This Section may be referred to as the Illinois DNA
Database Law of 2011.

shall provide that, when the offender is released from
other-state or federal confinement, whether by parole or by
termination of sentence, the offender shall be transferred by

court that imposed sentence to have his or her sentence
reduced.
The circuit court may order that any time served on the
sentence imposed by the other state or district court of the

supervision for a violation of Section 5-16 of the Boat
Registration and Safety Act if that person has previously
received a disposition of court supervision for a violation of
that Section.
(13) A person convicted of or placed on court supervision
for an assault or aggravated assault when the victim and the
offender are family or household members as defined in Section
103 of the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986 or convicted
of domestic battery or aggravated domestic battery may be
required to attend a Partner Abuse Intervention Program under
protocols set forth by the Illinois Department of Human
Services under such terms and conditions imposed by the court.
The costs of such classes shall be paid by the offender.
(d) In any case in which a sentence originally imposed is
vacated, the case shall be remanded to the trial court. The
trial court shall hold a hearing under Section 5-4-1 of the
Unified Code of Corrections which may include evidence of the
defendant's life, moral character and occupation during the
time since the original sentence was passed. The trial court
shall then impose sentence upon the defendant. The trial court
may impose any sentence which could have been imposed at the
original trial subject to Section 5-5-4 of the Unified Code of
Corrections. If a sentence is vacated on appeal or on
collateral attack due to the failure of the trier of fact at
trial to determine beyond a reasonable doubt the existence of a
fact (other than a prior conviction) necessary to increase the
punishment for the offense beyond the statutory maximum
otherwise applicable, either the defendant may be re-sentenced
to a term within the range otherwise provided or, if the State
files notice of its intention to again seek the extended
sentence, the defendant shall be afforded a new trial.
(e) In cases where prosecution for aggravated criminal
sexual abuse under Section 11-1.60 or 12-16 of the Criminal
Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 results in conviction
of a defendant who was a family member of the victim at the
time of the commission of the offense, the court shall consider
the safety and welfare of the victim and may impose a sentence
of probation only where:
(1) the court finds (A) or (B) or both are appropriate:
(A) the defendant is willing to undergo a court
approved counseling program for a minimum duration of 2
years; or
(B) the defendant is willing to participate in a
court approved plan including but not limited to the
defendant's:
(i) removal from the household;
(ii) restricted contact with the victim;
(iii) continued financial support of the
family;
(iv) restitution for harm done to the victim;
and
(v) compliance with any other measures that
the court may deem appropriate; and
(2) the court orders the defendant to pay for the
victim's counseling services, to the extent that the court
finds, after considering the defendant's income and
assets, that the defendant is financially capable of paying
for such services, if the victim was under 18 years of age
at the time the offense was committed and requires
counseling as a result of the offense.
Probation may be revoked or modified pursuant to Section
5-6-4; except where the court determines at the hearing that
the defendant violated a condition of his or her probation
restricting contact with the victim or other family members or
commits another offense with the victim or other family
members, the court shall revoke the defendant's probation and
impose a term of imprisonment.
For the purposes of this Section, "family member" and
"victim" shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Section
11-0.1 of the Criminal Code of 2012.

(g) Whenever a defendant is convicted of an offense under
Sections 11-1.20, 11-1.30, 11-1.40, 11-1.50, 11-1.60, 11-14,
11-14.3, 11-14.4 except for an offense that involves keeping a
place of juvenile prostitution, 11-15, 11-15.1, 11-16, 11-17,
11-18, 11-18.1, 11-19, 11-19.1, 11-19.2, 12-13, 12-14,
12-14.1, 12-15 or 12-16 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the
Criminal Code of 2012, the defendant shall undergo medical
testing to determine whether the defendant has any sexually
transmissible disease, including a test for infection with
human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or any other identified
causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
Any such medical test shall be performed only by appropriately
licensed medical practitioners and may include an analysis of
any bodily fluids as well as an examination of the defendant's
person. Except as otherwise provided by law, the results of
such test shall be kept strictly confidential by all medical
personnel involved in the testing and must be personally
delivered in a sealed envelope to the judge of the court in
which the conviction was entered for the judge's inspection in
camera. Acting in accordance with the best interests of the
victim and the public, the judge shall have the discretion to
determine to whom, if anyone, the results of the testing may be
revealed. The court shall notify the defendant of the test
results. The court shall also notify the victim if requested by
the victim, and if the victim is under the age of 15 and if
requested by the victim's parents or legal guardian, the court
shall notify the victim's parents or legal guardian of the test
results. The court shall provide information on the
availability of HIV testing and counseling at Department of
Public Health facilities to all parties to whom the results of
the testing are revealed and shall direct the State's Attorney
to provide the information to the victim when possible. A
State's Attorney may petition the court to obtain the results
of any HIV test administered under this Section, and the court
shall grant the disclosure if the State's Attorney shows it is
relevant in order to prosecute a charge of criminal
transmission of HIV under Section 12-5.01 or 12-16.2 of the
Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 against the
defendant. The court shall order that the cost of any such test
shall be paid by the county and may be taxed as costs against
the convicted defendant.
(g-5) When an inmate is tested for an airborne communicable
disease, as determined by the Illinois Department of Public
Health including but not limited to tuberculosis, the results
of the test shall be personally delivered by the warden or his
or her designee in a sealed envelope to the judge of the court
in which the inmate must appear for the judge's inspection in
camera if requested by the judge. Acting in accordance with the
best interests of those in the courtroom, the judge shall have
the discretion to determine what if any precautions need to be
taken to prevent transmission of the disease in the courtroom.
(h) Whenever a defendant is convicted of an offense under
Section 1 or 2 of the Hypodermic Syringes and Needles Act, the
defendant shall undergo medical testing to determine whether
the defendant has been exposed to human immunodeficiency virus
(HIV) or any other identified causative agent of acquired
immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Except as otherwise provided
by law, the results of such test shall be kept strictly
confidential by all medical personnel involved in the testing
and must be personally delivered in a sealed envelope to the
judge of the court in which the conviction was entered for the
judge's inspection in camera. Acting in accordance with the
best interests of the public, the judge shall have the
discretion to determine to whom, if anyone, the results of the
testing may be revealed. The court shall notify the defendant
of a positive test showing an infection with the human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The court shall provide
information on the availability of HIV testing and counseling
at Department of Public Health facilities to all parties to
whom the results of the testing are revealed and shall direct
the State's Attorney to provide the information to the victim
when possible. A State's Attorney may petition the court to
obtain the results of any HIV test administered under this
Section, and the court shall grant the disclosure if the
State's Attorney shows it is relevant in order to prosecute a
charge of criminal transmission of HIV under Section 12-5.01 or
12-16.2 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of
2012 against the defendant. The court shall order that the cost
of any such test shall be paid by the county and may be taxed as
costs against the convicted defendant.
(i) All fines and penalties imposed under this Section for
any violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois
Vehicle Code, or a similar provision of a local ordinance, and
any violation of the Child Passenger Protection Act, or a
similar provision of a local ordinance, shall be collected and
disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under the Criminal
and Traffic Assessment Act Section 27.5 of the Clerks of Courts
Act.
(j) In cases when prosecution for any violation of Section
11-1.20, 11-1.30, 11-1.40, 11-1.50, 11-1.60, 11-6, 11-8, 11-9,
11-11, 11-14, 11-14.3, 11-14.4, 11-15, 11-15.1, 11-16, 11-17,
11-17.1, 11-18, 11-18.1, 11-19, 11-19.1, 11-19.2, 11-20.1,
11-20.1B, 11-20.3, 11-21, 11-30, 11-40, 12-13, 12-14, 12-14.1,
12-15, or 12-16 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal
Code of 2012, any violation of the Illinois Controlled
Substances Act, any violation of the Cannabis Control Act, or
any violation of the Methamphetamine Control and Community
Protection Act results in conviction, a disposition of court
supervision, or an order of probation granted under Section 10
of the Cannabis Control Act, Section 410 of the Illinois
Controlled Substances Act, or Section 70 of the Methamphetamine
Control and Community Protection Act of a defendant, the court
shall determine whether the defendant is employed by a facility
or center as defined under the Child Care Act of 1969, a public
or private elementary or secondary school, or otherwise works
with children under 18 years of age on a daily basis. When a
defendant is so employed, the court shall order the Clerk of
the Court to send a copy of the judgment of conviction or order
of supervision or probation to the defendant's employer by
certified mail. If the employer of the defendant is a school,
the Clerk of the Court shall direct the mailing of a copy of
the judgment of conviction or order of supervision or probation
to the appropriate regional superintendent of schools. The
regional superintendent of schools shall notify the State Board
of Education of any notification under this subsection.
(j-5) A defendant at least 17 years of age who is convicted
of a felony and who has not been previously convicted of a
misdemeanor or felony and who is sentenced to a term of
imprisonment in the Illinois Department of Corrections shall as
a condition of his or her sentence be required by the court to
attend educational courses designed to prepare the defendant
for a high school diploma and to work toward a high school
diploma or to work toward passing high school equivalency
testing or to work toward completing a vocational training
program offered by the Department of Corrections. If a
defendant fails to complete the educational training required
by his or her sentence during the term of incarceration, the
Prisoner Review Board shall, as a condition of mandatory
supervised release, require the defendant, at his or her own
expense, to pursue a course of study toward a high school
diploma or passage of high school equivalency testing. The
Prisoner Review Board shall revoke the mandatory supervised
release of a defendant who wilfully fails to comply with this
subsection (j-5) upon his or her release from confinement in a
penal institution while serving a mandatory supervised release
term; however, the inability of the defendant after making a
good faith effort to obtain financial aid or pay for the
educational training shall not be deemed a wilful failure to
comply. The Prisoner Review Board shall recommit the defendant
whose mandatory supervised release term has been revoked under
this subsection (j-5) as provided in Section 3-3-9. This
subsection (j-5) does not apply to a defendant who has a high
school diploma or has successfully passed high school
equivalency testing. This subsection (j-5) does not apply to a
defendant who is determined by the court to be a person with a
developmental disability or otherwise mentally incapable of
completing the educational or vocational program.
(k) (Blank).
(l) (A) Except as provided in paragraph (C) of subsection
(l), whenever a defendant, who is an alien as defined by the
Immigration and Nationality Act, is convicted of any felony or
misdemeanor offense, the court after sentencing the defendant
may, upon motion of the State's Attorney, hold sentence in
abeyance and remand the defendant to the custody of the
Attorney General of the United States or his or her designated
agent to be deported when:
(1) a final order of deportation has been issued
against the defendant pursuant to proceedings under the
Immigration and Nationality Act, and
(2) the deportation of the defendant would not
deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct and
would not be inconsistent with the ends of justice.
Otherwise, the defendant shall be sentenced as provided in
this Chapter V.
(B) If the defendant has already been sentenced for a
felony or misdemeanor offense, or has been placed on probation
under Section 10 of the Cannabis Control Act, Section 410 of
the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or Section 70 of the
Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act, the
court may, upon motion of the State's Attorney to suspend the
sentence imposed, commit the defendant to the custody of the
Attorney General of the United States or his or her designated
agent when:
(1) a final order of deportation has been issued
against the defendant pursuant to proceedings under the
Immigration and Nationality Act, and
(2) the deportation of the defendant would not
deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct and
would not be inconsistent with the ends of justice.
(C) This subsection (l) does not apply to offenders who are
subject to the provisions of paragraph (2) of subsection (a) of
Section 3-6-3.
(D) Upon motion of the State's Attorney, if a defendant
sentenced under this Section returns to the jurisdiction of the
United States, the defendant shall be recommitted to the
custody of the county from which he or she was sentenced.
Thereafter, the defendant shall be brought before the
sentencing court, which may impose any sentence that was
available under Section 5-5-3 at the time of initial
sentencing. In addition, the defendant shall not be eligible
for additional earned sentence credit as provided under Section
3-6-3.
(m) A person convicted of criminal defacement of property
under Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the
Criminal Code of 2012, in which the property damage exceeds
$300 and the property damaged is a school building, shall be
ordered to perform community service that may include cleanup,
removal, or painting over the defacement.
(n) The court may sentence a person convicted of a
violation of Section 12-19, 12-21, 16-1.3, or 17-56, or
subsection (a) or (b) of Section 12-4.4a, of the Criminal Code
of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 (i) to an impact
incarceration program if the person is otherwise eligible for
that program under Section 5-8-1.1, (ii) to community service,
or (iii) if the person is an addict or alcoholic, as defined in
the Alcoholism and Other Drug Abuse and Dependency Act, to a
substance or alcohol abuse program licensed under that Act.
(o) Whenever a person is convicted of a sex offense as
defined in Section 2 of the Sex Offender Registration Act, the
defendant's driver's license or permit shall be subject to
renewal on an annual basis in accordance with the provisions of
license renewal established by the Secretary of State.

(730 ILCS 5/5-5-6) (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-5-6)
Sec. 5-5-6. In all convictions for offenses in violation of
the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 or of
Section 11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code in which the person
received any injury to his or her person or damage to his or
her real or personal property as a result of the criminal act
of the defendant, the court shall order restitution as provided
in this Section. In all other cases, except cases in which
restitution is required under this Section, the court must at
the sentence hearing determine whether restitution is an
appropriate sentence to be imposed on each defendant convicted
of an offense. If the court determines that an order directing
the offender to make restitution is appropriate, the offender
may be sentenced to make restitution. The court may consider
restitution an appropriate sentence to be imposed on each
defendant convicted of an offense in addition to a sentence of
imprisonment. The sentence of the defendant to a term of
imprisonment is not a mitigating factor that prevents the court
from ordering the defendant to pay restitution. If the offender
is sentenced to make restitution the Court shall determine the
restitution as hereinafter set forth:
(a) At the sentence hearing, the court shall determine
whether the property may be restored in kind to the
possession of the owner or the person entitled to
possession thereof; or whether the defendant is possessed
of sufficient skill to repair and restore property damaged;
or whether the defendant should be required to make
restitution in cash, for out-of-pocket expenses, damages,
losses, or injuries found to have been proximately caused
by the conduct of the defendant or another for whom the
defendant is legally accountable under the provisions of
Article 5 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code
of 2012.
(b) In fixing the amount of restitution to be paid in
cash, the court shall allow credit for property returned in
kind, for property damages ordered to be repaired by the
defendant, and for property ordered to be restored by the
defendant; and after granting the credit, the court shall
assess the actual out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages,
and injuries suffered by the victim named in the charge and
any other victims who may also have suffered out-of-pocket
expenses, losses, damages, and injuries proximately caused
by the same criminal conduct of the defendant, and
insurance carriers who have indemnified the named victim or
other victims for the out-of-pocket expenses, losses,
damages, or injuries, provided that in no event shall
restitution be ordered to be paid on account of pain and
suffering. When a victim's out-of-pocket expenses have
been paid pursuant to the Crime Victims Compensation Act,
the court shall order restitution be paid to the
compensation program. If a defendant is placed on
supervision for, or convicted of, domestic battery, the
defendant shall be required to pay restitution to any
domestic violence shelter in which the victim and any other
family or household members lived because of the domestic
battery. The amount of the restitution shall equal the
actual expenses of the domestic violence shelter in
providing housing and any other services for the victim and
any other family or household members living at the
shelter. If a defendant fails to pay restitution in the
manner or within the time period specified by the court,
the court may enter an order directing the sheriff to seize
any real or personal property of a defendant to the extent
necessary to satisfy the order of restitution and dispose
of the property by public sale. All proceeds from such sale
in excess of the amount of restitution plus court costs and
the costs of the sheriff in conducting the sale shall be
paid to the defendant. The defendant convicted of domestic
battery, if a person under 18 years of age was present and
witnessed the domestic battery of the victim, is liable to
pay restitution for the cost of any counseling required for
the child at the discretion of the court.
(c) In cases where more than one defendant is
accountable for the same criminal conduct that results in
out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages, or injuries, each
defendant shall be ordered to pay restitution in the amount
of the total actual out-of-pocket expenses, losses,
damages, or injuries to the victim proximately caused by
the conduct of all of the defendants who are legally
accountable for the offense.
(1) In no event shall the victim be entitled to
recover restitution in excess of the actual
out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages, or injuries,
proximately caused by the conduct of all of the
defendants.
(2) As between the defendants, the court may
apportion the restitution that is payable in
proportion to each co-defendant's culpability in the
commission of the offense.
(3) In the absence of a specific order apportioning
the restitution, each defendant shall bear his pro rata
share of the restitution.
(4) As between the defendants, each defendant
shall be entitled to a pro rata reduction in the total
restitution required to be paid to the victim for
amounts of restitution actually paid by co-defendants,
and defendants who shall have paid more than their pro
rata share shall be entitled to refunds to be computed
by the court as additional amounts are paid by
co-defendants.
(d) In instances where a defendant has more than one
criminal charge pending against him in a single case, or
more than one case, and the defendant stands convicted of
one or more charges, a plea agreement negotiated by the
State's Attorney and the defendants may require the
defendant to make restitution to victims of charges that
have been dismissed or which it is contemplated will be
dismissed under the terms of the plea agreement, and under
the agreement, the court may impose a sentence of
restitution on the charge or charges of which the defendant
has been convicted that would require the defendant to make
restitution to victims of other offenses as provided in the
plea agreement.
(e) The court may require the defendant to apply the
balance of the cash bond, after payment of court costs, and
any fine that may be imposed to the payment of restitution.
(f) Taking into consideration the ability of the
defendant to pay, including any real or personal property
or any other assets of the defendant, the court shall
determine whether restitution shall be paid in a single
payment or in installments, and shall fix a period of time
not in excess of 5 years, except for violations of Sections
16-1.3 and 17-56 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the
Criminal Code of 2012, or the period of time specified in
subsection (f-1), not including periods of incarceration,
within which payment of restitution is to be paid in full.
Complete restitution shall be paid in as short a time
period as possible. However, if the court deems it
necessary and in the best interest of the victim, the court
may extend beyond 5 years the period of time within which
the payment of restitution is to be paid. If the defendant
is ordered to pay restitution and the court orders that
restitution is to be paid over a period greater than 6
months, the court shall order that the defendant make
monthly payments; the court may waive this requirement of
monthly payments only if there is a specific finding of
good cause for waiver.
(f-1)(1) In addition to any other penalty prescribed by
law and any restitution ordered under this Section that did
not include long-term physical health care costs, the court
may, upon conviction of any misdemeanor or felony, order a
defendant to pay restitution to a victim in accordance with
the provisions of this subsection (f-1) if the victim has
suffered physical injury as a result of the offense that is
reasonably probable to require or has required long-term
physical health care for more than 3 months. As used in
this subsection (f-1) "long-term physical health care"
includes mental health care.
(2) The victim's estimate of long-term physical health
care costs may be made as part of a victim impact statement
under Section 6 of the Rights of Crime Victims and
Witnesses Act or made separately. The court shall enter the
long-term physical health care restitution order at the
time of sentencing. An order of restitution made under this
subsection (f-1) shall fix a monthly amount to be paid by
the defendant for as long as long-term physical health care
of the victim is required as a result of the offense. The
order may exceed the length of any sentence imposed upon
the defendant for the criminal activity. The court shall
include as a special finding in the judgment of conviction
its determination of the monthly cost of long-term physical
health care.
(3) After a sentencing order has been entered, the
court may from time to time, on the petition of either the
defendant or the victim, or upon its own motion, enter an
order for restitution for long-term physical care or modify
the existing order for restitution for long-term physical
care as to the amount of monthly payments. Any modification
of the order shall be based only upon a substantial change
of circumstances relating to the cost of long-term physical
health care or the financial condition of either the
defendant or the victim. The petition shall be filed as
part of the original criminal docket.
(g) In addition to the sentences provided for in
Sections 11-1.20, 11-1.30, 11-1.40, 11-1.50, 11-1.60,
11-19.2, 11-20.1, 11-20.1B, 11-20.3, 12-13, 12-14,
12-14.1, 12-15, and 12-16, and subdivision (a)(4) of
Section 11-14.4, of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the
Criminal Code of 2012, the court may order any person who
is convicted of violating any of those Sections or who was
charged with any of those offenses and which charge was
reduced to another charge as a result of a plea agreement
under subsection (d) of this Section to meet all or any
portion of the financial obligations of treatment,
including but not limited to medical, psychiatric, or
rehabilitative treatment or psychological counseling,
prescribed for the victim or victims of the offense.
The payments shall be made by the defendant to the
clerk of the circuit court and transmitted by the clerk to
the appropriate person or agency as directed by the court.
Except as otherwise provided in subsection (f-1), the order
may require such payments to be made for a period not to
exceed 5 years after sentencing, not including periods of
incarceration.
(h) The judge may enter an order of withholding to
collect the amount of restitution owed in accordance with
Part 8 of Article XII of the Code of Civil Procedure.
(i) A sentence of restitution may be modified or
revoked by the court if the offender commits another
offense, or the offender fails to make restitution as
ordered by the court, but no sentence to make restitution
shall be revoked unless the court shall find that the
offender has had the financial ability to make restitution,
and he has wilfully refused to do so. When the offender's
ability to pay restitution was established at the time an
order of restitution was entered or modified, or when the
offender's ability to pay was based on the offender's
willingness to make restitution as part of a plea agreement
made at the time the order of restitution was entered or
modified, there is a rebuttable presumption that the facts
and circumstances considered by the court at the hearing at
which the order of restitution was entered or modified
regarding the offender's ability or willingness to pay
restitution have not materially changed. If the court shall
find that the defendant has failed to make restitution and
that the failure is not wilful, the court may impose an
additional period of time within which to make restitution.
The length of the additional period shall not be more than
2 years. The court shall retain all of the incidents of the
original sentence, including the authority to modify or
enlarge the conditions, and to revoke or further modify the
sentence if the conditions of payment are violated during
the additional period.
(j) The procedure upon the filing of a Petition to
Revoke a sentence to make restitution shall be the same as
the procedures set forth in Section 5-6-4 of this Code
governing violation, modification, or revocation of
Probation, of Conditional Discharge, or of Supervision.
(k) Nothing contained in this Section shall preclude
the right of any party to proceed in a civil action to
recover for any damages incurred due to the criminal
misconduct of the defendant.
(l) Restitution ordered under this Section shall not be
subject to disbursement by the circuit clerk under the
Criminal and Traffic Assessment Act Section 27.5 of the
Clerks of Courts Act.
(m) A restitution order under this Section is a
judgment lien in favor of the victim that:
(1) Attaches to the property of the person subject
to the order;
(2) May be perfected in the same manner as provided
in Part 3 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code;
(3) May be enforced to satisfy any payment that is
delinquent under the restitution order by the person in
whose favor the order is issued or the person's
assignee; and
(4) Expires in the same manner as a judgment lien
created in a civil proceeding.
When a restitution order is issued under this Section,
the issuing court shall send a certified copy of the order
to the clerk of the circuit court in the county where the
charge was filed. Upon receiving the order, the clerk shall
enter and index the order in the circuit court judgment
docket.
(n) An order of restitution under this Section does not
bar a civil action for:
(1) Damages that the court did not require the
person to pay to the victim under the restitution order
but arise from an injury or property damages that is
the basis of restitution ordered by the court; and
(2) Other damages suffered by the victim.
The restitution order is not discharged by the completion
of the sentence imposed for the offense.
A restitution order under this Section is not discharged by
the liquidation of a person's estate by a receiver. A
restitution order under this Section may be enforced in the
same manner as judgment liens are enforced under Article XII of
the Code of Civil Procedure.
The provisions of Section 2-1303 of the Code of Civil
Procedure, providing for interest on judgments, apply to
judgments for restitution entered under this Section.

Sec. 5-6-1. Sentences of Probation and of Conditional
Discharge and Disposition of Supervision. The General Assembly
finds that in order to protect the public, the criminal justice
system must compel compliance with the conditions of probation
by responding to violations with swift, certain and fair
punishments and intermediate sanctions. The Chief Judge of each
circuit shall adopt a system of structured, intermediate
sanctions for violations of the terms and conditions of a
sentence of probation, conditional discharge or disposition of
supervision.
(a) Except where specifically prohibited by other
provisions of this Code, the court shall impose a sentence of
probation or conditional discharge upon an offender unless,
having regard to the nature and circumstance of the offense,
and to the history, character and condition of the offender,
the court is of the opinion that:
(1) his imprisonment or periodic imprisonment is
necessary for the protection of the public; or

probation, conditional discharge, or supervision, that the
probation agency may invoke any sanction from the list of

conditional discharge require that a person under 18 years of
age found guilty of any alcohol, cannabis or controlled
substance violation, refrain from acquiring a driver's license
during the period of probation or conditional discharge. If
such person is in possession of a permit or license, the court
may require that the minor refrain from driving or operating
any motor vehicle during the period of probation or conditional
discharge, except as may be necessary in the course of the
minor's lawful employment.
(d) An offender sentenced to probation or to conditional
discharge shall be given a certificate setting forth the
conditions thereof.
(e) Except where the offender has committed a fourth or
subsequent violation of subsection (c) of Section 6-303 of the
Illinois Vehicle Code, the court shall not require as a
condition of the sentence of probation or conditional discharge
that the offender be committed to a period of imprisonment in

Persons committed to imprisonment as a condition of
probation or conditional discharge shall not be committed to
the Department of Corrections.

testing, or both, and all costs incidental to such approved
electronic monitoring in accordance with the defendant's
ability to pay those costs. The county board with the
concurrence of the Chief Judge of the judicial circuit in which
the county is located shall establish reasonable fees for the
cost of maintenance, testing, and incidental expenses related
to the mandatory drug or alcohol testing, or both, and all
costs incidental to approved electronic monitoring, involved

concurrence of the Chief Judge shall be in the form of an
administrative order. The fees shall be collected by the clerk
of the circuit court, except as provided in an administrative
order of the Chief Judge of the circuit court. The clerk of the
circuit court shall pay all moneys collected from these fees to
the county treasurer who shall use the moneys collected to
defray the costs of drug testing, alcohol testing, and
electronic monitoring. The county treasurer shall deposit the
fees collected in the county working cash fund under Section
6-27001 or Section 6-29002 of the Counties Code, as the case
may be. The Chief Judge of the circuit court of the county may
by administrative order establish a program for electronic
monitoring of offenders, in which a vendor supplies and
monitors the operation of the electronic monitoring device, and
collects the fees on behalf of the county. The program shall
include provisions for indigent offenders and the collection of
unpaid fees. The program shall not unduly burden the offender
and shall be subject to review by the Chief Judge.
The Chief Judge of the circuit court may suspend any
additional charges or fees for late payment, interest, or
damage to any device.
(h) Jurisdiction over an offender may be transferred from
the sentencing court to the court of another circuit with the
concurrence of both courts. Further transfers or retransfers of
jurisdiction are also authorized in the same manner. The court
to which jurisdiction has been transferred shall have the same
powers as the sentencing court. The probation department within
the circuit to which jurisdiction has been transferred, or
which has agreed to provide supervision, may impose probation
fees upon receiving the transferred offender, as provided in
subsection (i). For all transfer cases, as defined in Section
9b of the Probation and Probation Officers Act, the probation
department from the original sentencing court shall retain all
probation fees collected prior to the transfer. After the
transfer, all probation fees shall be paid to the probation
department within the circuit to which jurisdiction has been
transferred.
(i) The court shall impose upon an offender sentenced to
probation after January 1, 1989 or to conditional discharge
after January 1, 1992 or to community service under the
supervision of a probation or court services department after
January 1, 2004, as a condition of such probation or
conditional discharge or supervised community service, a fee of
$50 for each month of probation or conditional discharge
supervision or supervised community service ordered by the
court, unless after determining the inability of the person
sentenced to probation or conditional discharge or supervised
community service to pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser
fee. The court may not impose the fee on a minor who is placed
in the guardianship or custody of the Department of Children
and Family Services under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 while
the minor is in placement. The fee shall be imposed only upon
an offender who is actively supervised by the probation and
court services department. The fee shall be collected by the
clerk of the circuit court. The clerk of the circuit court
shall pay all monies collected from this fee to the county
treasurer for deposit in the probation and court services fund
under Section 15.1 of the Probation and Probation Officers Act.
A circuit court may not impose a probation fee under this
subsection (i) in excess of $25 per month unless the circuit
court has adopted, by administrative order issued by the chief
judge, a standard probation fee guide determining an offender's
ability to pay Of the amount collected as a probation fee, up
to $5 of that fee collected per month may be used to provide
services to crime victims and their families.
The Court may only waive probation fees based on an
offender's ability to pay. The probation department may
re-evaluate an offender's ability to pay every 6 months, and,
with the approval of the Director of Court Services or the
Chief Probation Officer, adjust the monthly fee amount. An
offender may elect to pay probation fees due in a lump sum. Any
offender that has been assigned to the supervision of a
probation department, or has been transferred either under
subsection (h) of this Section or under any interstate compact,
shall be required to pay probation fees to the department
supervising the offender, based on the offender's ability to
pay.
Public Act 93-970 deletes the $10 increase in the fee under
this subsection that was imposed by Public Act 93-616. This
deletion is intended to control over any other Act of the 93rd
General Assembly that retains or incorporates that fee
increase.
(i-5) In addition to the fees imposed under subsection (i)
of this Section, in the case of an offender convicted of a
felony sex offense (as defined in the Sex Offender Management
Board Act) or an offense that the court or probation department
has determined to be sexually motivated (as defined in the Sex
Offender Management Board Act), the court or the probation
department shall assess additional fees to pay for all costs of
treatment, assessment, evaluation for risk and treatment, and
monitoring the offender, based on that offender's ability to
pay those costs either as they occur or under a payment plan.
(j) All fines and costs imposed under this Section for any
violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois Vehicle
Code, or a similar provision of a local ordinance, and any
violation of the Child Passenger Protection Act, or a similar
provision of a local ordinance, shall be collected and
disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under the Criminal
and Traffic Assessment Act Section 27.5 of the Clerks of Courts
Act.
(k) Any offender who is sentenced to probation or
conditional discharge for a felony sex offense as defined in
the Sex Offender Management Board Act or any offense that the
court or probation department has determined to be sexually
motivated as defined in the Sex Offender Management Board Act
shall be required to refrain from any contact, directly or
indirectly, with any persons specified by the court and shall
be available for all evaluations and treatment programs
required by the court or the probation department.
(l) The court may order an offender who is sentenced to
probation or conditional discharge for a violation of an order
of protection be placed under electronic surveillance as
provided in Section 5-8A-7 of this Code.

Sections 12-3.2, 16-25, or 16A-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961
or the Criminal Code of 2012, in which case it shall be 5 years

any defendant placed on supervision before January 1, 1980, may
move for sealing or expungement of his arrest record, as
provided by law, at any time after discharge and dismissal

as the case may be.
The Chief Judge of the circuit court of the county may by
administrative order establish a program for electronic
monitoring of offenders, in which a vendor supplies and

unpaid fees. The program shall not unduly burden the offender
and shall be subject to review by the Chief Judge.

additional charges or fees for late payment, interest, or
damage to any device.

custody of the Department of Children and Family Services under
the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 while the minor is in placement.
The fee shall be imposed only upon a defendant who is actively

fee shall be collected by the clerk of the circuit court. The
clerk of the circuit court shall pay all monies collected from
this fee to the county treasurer for deposit in the probation
and court services fund pursuant to Section 15.1 of the
Probation and Probation Officers Act.

$25 per month unless the circuit court has adopted, by
administrative order issued by the chief judge, a standard
probation fee guide determining an offender's ability to pay.
Of the amount collected as a probation fee, not to exceed $5 of
that fee collected per month may be used to provide services to
crime victims and their families.
The Court may only waive probation fees based on an
offender's ability to pay. The probation department may
re-evaluate an offender's ability to pay every 6 months, and,
with the approval of the Director of Court Services or the
Chief Probation Officer, adjust the monthly fee amount. An
offender may elect to pay probation fees due in a lump sum. Any
offender that has been assigned to the supervision of a

shall be required to pay probation fees to the department
supervising the offender, based on the offender's ability to

to a defendant who has a high school diploma or has
successfully passed high school equivalency testing. This
subsection (k) does not apply to a defendant who is determined
by the court to be a person with a developmental disability or
otherwise mentally incapable of completing the educational or
vocational program.

supervision for possession of a substance prohibited by the
Cannabis Control Act, the Illinois Controlled Substances Act,
or the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act
after a previous conviction or disposition of supervision for

particular times and conditions of release shall be determined
by the Department of Corrections, the sheriff, or the
Superintendent of the house of corrections, who is
administering the program.
(b) A sentence of periodic imprisonment may be imposed to
permit the defendant to:

occupation including housekeeping;
(4) attend to family needs;
(5) attend an educational institution, including
vocational education;

defendant in excess of 90 days.
(d) A sentence of periodic imprisonment shall be for a

periodic imprisonment shall be subject to the good time credit
provisions of Section 3-6-3 of this Code.
(e) When the court imposes a sentence of periodic
imprisonment, it shall state:

judicial circuit in which the county is located shall establish
reasonable fees for the cost of maintenance, testing, and
incidental expenses related to the mandatory drug or alcohol
testing, or both, and all costs incidental to approved
electronic monitoring, of all offenders with a sentence of
periodic imprisonment. The concurrence of the Chief Judge shall

be required by the court to attend educational courses designed
to prepare the defendant for a high school diploma and to work

Section 905-95. The County Jail Act is amended by changing
Section 17 as follows:
(730 ILCS 125/17) (from Ch. 75, par. 117)
Sec. 17. Bedding, clothing, fuel, and medical aid;
reimbursement for medical expenses. The Warden of the jail
shall furnish necessary bedding, clothing, fuel, and medical
services for all prisoners under his charge, and keep an
accurate account of the same. When services that result in
qualified medical expenses are required by any person held in
custody, the county, private hospital, physician or any public
agency which provides such services shall be entitled to obtain
reimbursement from the county for the cost of such services.
The county board of a county may adopt an ordinance or
resolution providing for reimbursement for the cost of those
services at the Department of Healthcare and Family Services'
rates for medical assistance. To the extent that such person is
reasonably able to pay for such care, including reimbursement
from any insurance program or from other medical benefit
programs available to such person, he or she shall reimburse
the county or arresting authority. If such person has already
been determined eligible for medical assistance under the
Illinois Public Aid Code at the time the person is detained,
the cost of such services, to the extent such cost exceeds
$500, shall be reimbursed by the Department of Healthcare and
Family Services under that Code. A reimbursement under any
public or private program authorized by this Section shall be
paid to the county or arresting authority to the same extent as
would have been obtained had the services been rendered in a
non-custodial environment.
The sheriff or his or her designee may cause an application
for medical assistance under the Illinois Public Aid Code to be
completed for an arrestee who is a hospital inpatient. If such
arrestee is determined eligible, he or she shall receive
medical assistance under the Code for hospital inpatient
services only. An arresting authority shall be responsible for
any qualified medical expenses relating to the arrestee until
such time as the arrestee is placed in the custody of the
sheriff. However, the arresting authority shall not be so
responsible if the arrest was made pursuant to a request by the
sheriff. When medical expenses are required by any person held
in custody, the county shall be entitled to obtain
reimbursement from the County Jail Medical Costs Fund to the
extent moneys are available from the Fund. To the extent that
the person is reasonably able to pay for that care, including
reimbursement from any insurance program or from other medical
benefit programs available to the person, he or she shall
reimburse the county.
The county shall be entitled to a $10 fee for each
conviction or order of supervision for a criminal violation,
other than a petty offense or business offense. The fee shall
be taxed as costs to be collected from the defendant, if
possible, upon conviction or entry of an order of supervision.
The fee shall not be considered a part of the fine for purposes
of any reduction in the fine.
All such fees collected shall be deposited by the county in
a fund to be established and known as the County Jail Medical
Costs Fund. Moneys in the Fund shall be used solely for
reimbursement to the county of costs for medical expenses and
administration of the Fund.
For the purposes of this Section, "arresting authority"
means a unit of local government, other than a county, which
employs peace officers and whose peace officers have made the
arrest of a person. For the purposes of this Section,
"qualified medical expenses" include medical and hospital
services but do not include (i) expenses incurred for medical
care or treatment provided to a person on account of a
self-inflicted injury incurred prior to or in the course of an
arrest, (ii) expenses incurred for medical care or treatment
provided to a person on account of a health condition of that
person which existed prior to the time of his or her arrest, or
(iii) expenses for hospital inpatient services for arrestees
enrolled for medical assistance under the Illinois Public Aid
Code.

The application and supporting affidavit may be incorporated
into one simplified form. The clerk of the court shall post in
a conspicuous place in the courthouse a notice no smaller than
8.5 x 11 inches, using no smaller than 30-point typeface
printed in English and in Spanish, advising the public that

limit the authority of a court to order another party to the
action to pay the fees, costs, or charges of the action.
(f-5) If, before or at the time of final disposition of the
case, the court obtains information, including information
from the court file, suggesting that a person whose fees,
costs, and charges were initially waived was not entitled to a
full or partial waiver at the time of application, the court
may require the person to appear at a court hearing by giving
the applicant no less than 10 days' written notice of the
hearing and the specific reasons why the initial waiver might
be reconsidered. The court may require the applicant to provide
reasonably available evidence, including financial
information, to support his or her eligibility for the waiver,
but the court shall not require submission of information that
is unrelated to the criteria for eligibility and application
requirements set forth in subdivisions (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this
Section. If the court finds that the person was not initially
entitled to any waiver, the person shall pay all fees, costs,
and charges relating to the civil action, including any
previously-waived fees, costs, and charges. The order may state
terms of payment in accordance with subsection (e). The court
shall not conduct a hearing under this subsection more often
than once every 6 months.

full or partial waiver has experienced a change in financial
condition so that he or she is no longer eligible for that
waiver, the court may require the person to appear at a court
hearing by giving the applicant no less than 10 days' written
notice of the hearing and the specific reasons why the waiver
might be reconsidered. The court may require the person to
provide reasonably available evidence, including financial
information, to support his or her continued eligibility for
the waiver, but shall not require submission of information
that is unrelated to the criteria for eligibility and
application requirements set forth in subsections (b)(1) and
(b)(2) of this Section. If the court enters an order finding
that the person is no longer entitled to a waiver, or is
entitled to a partial waiver different than that which the
person had previously received, the person shall pay the
requisite fees, costs, and charges from the date of the order
going forward. The order may state terms of payment in
accordance with subsection (e) of this Section. The court shall
not conduct a hearing under this subsection more often than
once every 6 months.
(g) A court, in its discretion, may appoint counsel to
represent an indigent person, and that counsel shall perform
his or her duties without fees, charges, or reward.
(h) Nothing in this Section shall be construed to affect
the right of a party to sue or defend an action in forma
pauperis without the payment of fees, costs, or charges, or the
right of a party to court-appointed counsel, as authorized by
any other provision of law or by the rules of the Illinois
Supreme Court. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to
limit the authority of a court to order another party to the
action to pay the fees, costs, and charges of the action.
(h-5) If a party is represented by a civil legal services
provider or an attorney in a court-sponsored pro bono program
as defined in Section 5-105.5 of this Code, the attorney
representing that party shall file a certification with the
court in accordance with Supreme Court Rule 298 and that party
shall be allowed to sue or defend without payment of fees,
costs, and charges without filing an application under this
Section.
(h-10) If an attorney files an appearance on behalf of a
person whose fees, costs, and charges were initially waived
under this Section, the attorney must pay all fees, costs, and
charges relating to the civil action, including any previously
waived fees, costs, and charges, unless the attorney is either
a civil legal services provider, representing his or her client
as part of a court-sponsored pro bono program as defined in
Section 5-105.1 of this Code, or appearing under a limited
scope appearance in accordance with Supreme Court Rule
13(c)(6).
(i) The provisions of this Section are severable under
Section 1.31 of the Statute on Statutes.
