2subparagraph (B), if the Department provides documented proof
3of a lesser amount of days of participation in those programs,

6(ii) of subparagraph (B) shall control as to the amount of
7sentence credit provided.

5become engaged in any such programs by reason of insufficient
6program resources or for any other reason established under the

10inmate.
11 (4.1) Except as provided in paragraph (4.7) of this
12subsection (a), the rules and regulations shall also provide

9participate and complete the treatment has not been waived by
10the Director, the prisoner shall be placed on a waiting list
11under criteria established by the Department. The Director may
12allow a prisoner placed on a waiting list to participate in and

7credits before the Prisoner Review Board as provided in
8subparagraph (a)(4) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code, if the
9amount of credit at issue exceeds 30 days or when during any 12
10month period, the cumulative amount of credit revoked exceeds
1130 days except where the infraction is committed or discovered
12within 60 days of scheduled release. In those cases, the
13Department of Corrections may revoke up to 30 days of sentence
14credit. The Board may subsequently approve the revocation of
15additional sentence credit, if the Department seeks to revoke
16sentence credit in excess of 30 days. However, the Board shall

7 (d) If a lawsuit is filed by a prisoner in an Illinois or
8federal court against the State, the Department of Corrections,
9or the Prisoner Review Board, or against any of their officers
10or employees, and the court makes a specific finding that a
11pleading, motion, or other paper filed by the prisoner is
12frivolous, the Department of Corrections shall conduct a
13hearing to revoke up to 180 days of sentence credit by bringing
14charges against the prisoner sought to be deprived of the
15sentence credits before the Prisoner Review Board as provided
16in subparagraph (a)(8) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code. If the

7 Sec. 5-8-1.2. County impact incarceration.
8 (a) Legislative intent. It is the finding of the General
9Assembly that certain non-violent offenders eligible for

17approval of the County Board of Commissioners, the Sheriff, in
