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.

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

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.

court order, the clerk of the circuit court may add to any
unpaid assessments under this Act a delinquency amount equal to

substantially funded by a single unit or combination of units
of local government or the State of Illinois that regularly
employs at least one person engaged in the DUI analysis of
blood, other bodily substance, and urine for criminal justice
agencies in criminal matters and provides testimony with
respect to such examinations.
"DUI analysis" means an analysis of blood, other bodily
substance, or urine for purposes of determining whether a
violation of Section 11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code has
occurred.
(b) When a person has been adjudged guilty of an offense in
violation of Section 11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, in
addition to any other disposition, penalty, or fine imposed, a
crime laboratory DUI analysis fee of $150 for each offense for
which the person was convicted shall be levied by the court for
each case in which a laboratory analysis occurred. Upon
verified petition of the person, the court may suspend payment
of all or part of the fee if it finds that the person does not
have the ability to pay the fee.
(c) In addition to any other disposition made under the
provisions of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, any minor
adjudicated delinquent for an offense which if committed by an
adult would constitute a violation of Section 11-501 of the
Illinois Vehicle Code shall be assessed a crime laboratory DUI
analysis fee of $150 for each adjudication. Upon verified
petition of the minor, the court may suspend payment of all or
part of the fee if it finds that the minor does not have the
ability to pay the fee. The parent, guardian, or legal
custodian of the minor may pay some or all of the fee on the
minor's behalf.
(d) All crime laboratory DUI analysis fees provided for by
this Section shall be collected by the clerk of the court and

the county where the crime laboratory is situated.
(3) The State Police DUI Fund is created as a special
fund in the State Treasury.
(f) The analysis fee provided for in subsections (b) and
(c) of this Section shall be forwarded to the office of the
treasurer of the unit of local government that performed the
analysis if that unit of local government has established a
crime laboratory DUI fund, or to the State Treasurer for
deposit into the State Police DUI Fund if the analysis was
performed by a laboratory operated by the Department of State
Police. If the analysis was performed by a crime laboratory
funded by a combination of units of local government, the
analysis fee shall be forwarded to the treasurer of the county
where the crime laboratory is situated if a crime laboratory
DUI fund has been established in that county. If the unit of
local government or combination of units of local government
has not established a crime laboratory DUI fund, then the
analysis fee shall be forwarded to the State Treasurer for
deposit into the State Police DUI Fund. The clerk of the
circuit court may retain the amount of $10 from each collected
analysis fee to offset administrative costs incurred in
carrying out the clerk's responsibilities under this Section.
(g) Fees deposited into a crime laboratory DUI fund created
under paragraphs (1) and (2) of subsection (e) of this Section
shall be in addition to any allocations made pursuant to

provisions of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, any minor
adjudicated delinquent for an offense which if committed by an
adult would constitute a violation of Section 11-501 of the
Illinois Vehicle Code shall pay a crime laboratory DUI analysis
assessment of $150 for each adjudication. Upon verified
petition of the minor, the court may suspend payment of all or
part of the assessment if it finds that the minor does not have
the ability to pay the assessment. The parent, guardian, or
legal custodian of the minor may pay some or all of the
assessment on the minor's behalf.

(f) The analysis assessment provided for in subsection (c)
of this Section shall be forwarded to the office of the

crime laboratory DUI fund, or to the State Treasurer for
deposit into the State Crime Laboratory Police Operations
Assistance Fund if the analysis was performed by a laboratory
operated by the Department of State Police. If the analysis was
performed by a crime laboratory funded by a combination of
units of local government, the analysis assessment shall be
forwarded to the treasurer of the county where the crime
laboratory is situated if a crime laboratory DUI fund has been
established in that county. If the unit of local government or
combination of units of local government has not established a
crime laboratory DUI fund, then the analysis assessment shall
be forwarded to the State Treasurer for deposit into the State
Crime Laboratory Police Operations Assistance Fund.

value that the court determines that the applicant is
able to pay the fees, costs, and charges.
(iii) He or she is, in the discretion of the court,
unable to proceed in an action without payment of fees,
costs, and charges and whose payment of those fees,

Section 5-105.5 of this Code.
(3) "Poverty level" means the current poverty level as

fees, costs, and charges waiver entitling him or her to sue
or defend the action without payment of any of the fees,
costs, and charges.
(2) If the court finds that the applicant satisfies any
of the criteria contained in items (i), (ii), or (iii) of
this subdivision (b)(2), the court shall grant the
applicant a partial fees, costs, and charges waiver
entitling him or her to sue or defend the action upon
payment of the applicable percentage of the assessments,
costs, and charges of the action, as follows:
(i) the court shall waive 75% of all fees, costs,
and charges if the available income of the applicant is
greater than 125% 200% but does not exceed 150% 250% of

of this Code are such that the applicant is able,
without undue hardship, to pay a greater portion of the
fees, costs, and charges;
(ii) the court shall waive 50% of all fees, costs,
and charges if the available income is greater than
150% 250% but does not exceed 175% 300% of the poverty

exempt under Part 9 or 10 of Article XII of this Code
are such that the applicant is able, without undue

and charges; and
(iii) the court shall waive 25% of all fees, costs,
and charges if the available income of the applicant is
greater than 175% 300% but does not exceed 200% 400% of

applicant that are not exempt under Part 9 or 10 of
Article XII of this Code are such that the applicant is
able, without undue hardship, to pay a greater portion
of the fees, costs, and charges.
(c) An application for waiver of court fees, costs, and
charges shall be in writing and signed by the applicant, or, if
the applicant is a minor or an incompetent adult, by another
person having knowledge of the facts. The contents of the
application for waiver of court fees, costs, and charges, and
the procedure for the decision of the applications, shall be
established by Supreme Court Rule. Factors to consider in
evaluating an application shall include:
(1) the applicant's receipt of needs based
governmental public benefits, including Supplemental
Security Income (SSI); Aid to the Aged, Blind and Disabled
(ADBD); Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF);
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP or "food
stamps"); General Assistance; Transitional Assistance; or
State Children and Family Assistance;
(2) the employment status of the applicant and amount
of monthly income, if any;
(3) income received from the applicant's pension,
Social Security benefits, unemployment benefits, and other
sources;
(4) income received by the applicant from other
household members;
(5) the applicant's monthly expenses, including rent,
home mortgage, other mortgage, utilities, food, medical,
vehicle, childcare, debts, child support, and other
expenses; and

documentation provided by the applicant showing that
payment of the imposed fees, costs, and charges would
result in substantial hardship to the applicant or the
applicant's family.
(c-5) The court shall provide, through the office of the
clerk of the court, the application for waiver of court fees,
costs, and charges to any person seeking to sue or defend an
action who indicates an inability to pay the fees, costs, and
charges of the action. 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
they may ask the court for permission to sue or defend a civil
action without payment of fees, costs, and charges. The notice
shall be substantially as follows:
"If you are unable to pay the fees, costs, and charges
of an action you may ask the court to allow you to proceed
without paying them. Ask the clerk of the court for forms."
(d) (Blank).
(e) The clerk of the court shall not refuse to accept and
file any complaint, appearance, or other paper presented by the
applicant if accompanied by an application for waiver of court
fees, costs, and charges, and those papers shall be considered
filed on the date the application is presented. If the
application is denied or a partial fees, costs, and charges
waiver is granted, the order shall state a date certain by
which the necessary fees, costs, and charges must be paid. For
good cause shown, the court may allow an applicant who receives
a partial fees, costs, and charges waiver to defer payment of
fees, costs, and charges, make installment payments, or make
payment upon reasonable terms and conditions stated in the
order. The court may dismiss the claims or strike the defenses
of any party failing to pay the fees, costs, and charges within
the time and in the manner ordered by the court. A judicial
ruling on an application for waiver of court assessments does
not constitute a decision of a substantial issue in the case
under Section 2-1001 of this Code.
(f) The order granting a full or partial fees, costs, and
charges waiver shall expire after one year. Upon expiration of
the waiver, or a reasonable period of time before expiration,
the party whose fees, costs, and charges were waived may file
another application for waiver and the court shall consider the
application in accordance with the applicable Supreme Court
Rule.
(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 subdivision 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 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.
(f-10) 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 who received a
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 subdivisions 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, 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.
