259259 21 subsection (1), that finding shall not invalidate the verdict
260260 22 or the prosecution of the minor under the criminal laws of the

280280 6 sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
281281 7 In making its determination, the court shall consider among
282282 8 other matters: (a) whether there is evidence that the offense
283283 9 was committed in an aggressive and premeditated manner; (b)
284284 10 the age of the minor; (c) the previous history of the minor;
285285 11 (d) whether there are facilities particularly available to the
286286 12 Juvenile Court or the Department of Juvenile Justice for the
287287 13 treatment and rehabilitation of the minor; (e) whether the
288288 14 security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
289289 15 the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f) whether the minor
290290 16 possessed a deadly weapon when committing the offense. The
291291 17 rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial. If after
292292 18 the hearing the court finds that the minor should be sentenced
293293 19 under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections, then the
294294 20 court shall sentence the minor under Section 5-4.5-105 of the

311311 1 (7) The procedures set out in this Article for the
312312 2 investigation, arrest and prosecution of juvenile offenders
313313 3 shall not apply to minors who are excluded from jurisdiction
314314 4 of the Juvenile Court, except that minors under 18 years of age
315315 5 shall be kept separate from confined adults.
316316 6 (8) Nothing in this Act prohibits or limits the
317317 7 prosecution of any minor for an offense committed on or after
318318 8 his or her 18th birthday even though he or she is at the time
319319 9 of the offense a ward of the court.
320320 10 (9) If an original petition for adjudication of wardship
321321 11 alleges the commission by a minor 13 years of age or over of an
322322 12 act that constitutes a crime under the laws of this State, the
323323 13 minor, with the consent of his or her counsel, may, at any time
324324 14 before commencement of the adjudicatory hearing, file with the
325325 15 court a motion that criminal prosecution be ordered and that
326326 16 the petition be dismissed insofar as the act or acts involved
327327 17 in the criminal proceedings are concerned. If such a motion is
328328 18 filed as herein provided, the court shall enter its order
329329 19 accordingly.
330330 20 (10) If, prior to August 12, 2005 (the effective date of

351351 5 On its own motion or upon the filing of a motion by one of the
352352 6 parties including the minor, the court shall conduct a hearing
353353 7 to determine whether the minor should be tried and sentenced
354354 8 as a delinquent minor under this Article. In making its
355355 9 determination, the court shall consider among other matters:
356356 10 (a) The age of the minor;
357357 11 (b) Any previous delinquent or criminal history of the
358358 12 minor;
359359 13 (c) Any previous abuse or neglect history of the
360360 14 minor;
361361 15 (d) Any mental health or educational history of the
362362 16 minor, or both; and
363363 17 (e) Whether there is probable cause to support the
364364 18 charge, whether the minor is charged through
365365 19 accountability, and whether there is evidence the minor
366366 20 possessed a deadly weapon or caused serious bodily harm
367367 21 during the offense.
368368 22 Any material that is relevant and reliable shall be
369369 23 admissible at the hearing. In all cases, the judge shall enter
370370 24 an order permitting prosecution under the criminal laws of
371371 25 Illinois unless the judge makes a finding based on a
372372 26 preponderance of the evidence that the minor would be amenable

490490 1 vehicular hijacking or aggravated vehicular hijacking shall be
491491 2 detained in an authorized detention facility until a detention
492492 3 or shelter care hearing is held to determine if there is
493493 4 probable cause to believe that the minor is a delinquent minor
494494 5 and that: (1) secure custody is a matter of immediate and
495495 6 urgent necessity for the protection of the minor or of the
496496 7 person or property of another; (2) the minor is likely to flee
497497 8 the jurisdiction of the court; or (3) the minor was taken into
498498 9 custody under a warrant. If the court makes that
499499 10 determination, the minor shall continue to be held until the
500500 11 disposition of an adjudicatory hearing under this Article.
501501 12 (c) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (a), (d), or
502502 13 (e), no minor shall be detained in a county jail or municipal

504504 15 violence in which case the minor may be detained up to 24
505505 16 hours. For the purpose of this paragraph, "crime of violence"
506506 17 has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 1-10 of the
507507 18 Alcoholism and Other Drug Abuse and Dependency Act.
508508 19 (i) The period of detention is deemed to have begun

529529 4 detention, the time it is expected to last and the fact
530530 5 that it cannot exceed the time specified under this Act.
531531 6 (iv) A log shall be kept which shows the offense which
532532 7 is the basis for the detention, the reasons and
533533 8 circumstances for the decision to detain, and the length
534534 9 of time the minor was in detention.
535535 10 (v) Violation of the time limit on detention in a
536536 11 county jail or municipal lockup shall not, in and of
537537 12 itself, render inadmissible evidence obtained as a result
538538 13 of the violation of this time limit. Minors under 18 years
539539 14 of age shall be kept separate from confined adults and may
540540 15 not at any time be kept in the same cell, room, or yard
541541 16 with adults confined pursuant to criminal law. Persons 18
542542 17 years of age and older who have a petition of delinquency
543543 18 filed against them may be confined in an adult detention
544544 19 facility. In making a determination whether to confine a
545545 20 person 18 years of age or older who has a petition of
546546 21 delinquency filed against the person, these factors, among
547547 22 other matters, shall be considered:
548548 23 (A) the age of the person;

568568 7 in such a manner that there will be no contact by sight, sound,
569569 8 or otherwise between the minor and adult prisoners. Minors 12
570570 9 years of age or older must be kept separate from confined
571571 10 adults and may not at any time be kept in the same cell, room,
572572 11 or yard with confined adults. This paragraph (d)(i) shall only
573573 12 apply to confinement pending an adjudicatory hearing and shall
574574 13 not exceed 40 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and
575575 14 court-designated holidays. To accept or hold minors during
576576 15 this time period, county jails shall comply with all

578578 17 and training standards approved by the Illinois Law
579579 18 Enforcement Training Standards Board.

603603 6 (e) When a minor who is at least 15 years of age is
604604 7 prosecuted under the criminal laws of this State, the court
605605 8 may enter an order directing that the juvenile be confined in
606606 9 the county jail. However, any juvenile confined in the county
607607 10 jail under this provision shall be separated from adults who
608608 11 are confined in the county jail in such a manner that there
609609 12 will be no contact by sight, sound or otherwise between the
610610 13 juvenile and adult prisoners.
611611 14 (f) For purposes of appearing in a physical lineup, the
612612 15 minor may be taken to a county jail or municipal lockup under
613613 16 the direct and constant supervision of a juvenile police
614614 17 officer. During such time as is necessary to conduct a lineup,
615615 18 and while supervised by a juvenile police officer, the sight
616616 19 and sound separation provisions shall not apply.
617617 20 (g) For purposes of processing a minor, the minor may be
618618 21 taken to a county jail or municipal lockup under the direct and
619619 22 constant supervision of a law enforcement officer or

623623 26 separation provisions shall not apply.

635635 2 other public officer designated by the court in a county
636636 3 having 3,000,000 or more inhabitants) determines that the
637637 4 minor may be a delinquent minor as described in subsection (3)
638638 5 of Section 5-105, and should be retained in custody but does
639639 6 not require physical restriction, the minor may be placed in
640640 7 non-secure custody for up to 40 hours pending a detention
641641 8 hearing.
642642 9 (4) Any minor taken into temporary custody, not requiring
643643 10 secure detention, may, however, be detained in the home of his
644644 11 or her parent or guardian subject to such conditions as the
645645 12 court may impose.
646646 13 (5) The changes made to this Section by Public Act 98-61

669669 1 reason other than financial circumstances alone, to care for,
670670 2 protect, train or discipline the minor, or are unwilling to do
671671 3 so, and the best interests of the minor and the public will not
672672 4 be served by placement under Section 5-740, or it is necessary
673673 5 to ensure the protection of the public from the consequences
674674 6 of criminal activity of the delinquent; and (b) commitment to
675675 7 the Department of Juvenile Justice is the least restrictive
676676 8 alternative based on evidence that efforts were made to locate
677677 9 less restrictive alternatives to secure confinement and the
678678 10 reasons why efforts were unsuccessful in locating a less
679679 11 restrictive alternative to secure confinement. Before the
680680 12 court commits a minor to the Department of Juvenile Justice,
681681 13 it shall make a finding that secure confinement is necessary,
682682 14 following a review of the following individualized factors:
683683 15 (A) Age of the minor.
684684 16 (B) Criminal background of the minor.
685685 17 (C) Review of results of any assessments of the minor,
686686 18 including child centered assessments such as the CANS.
687687 19 (D) Educational background of the minor, indicating
688688 20 whether the minor has ever been assessed for a learning
689689 21 disability, and if so what services were provided as well

691691 23 (E) Physical, mental and emotional health of the
692692 24 minor, indicating whether the minor has ever been
693693 25 diagnosed with a health issue and if so what services were

710710 6 that will meet the individualized needs of the minor.
711711 7 (1.5) Before the court commits a minor to the Department
712712 8 of Juvenile Justice, the court must find reasonable efforts
713713 9 have been made to prevent or eliminate the need for the minor
714714 10 to be removed from the home, or reasonable efforts cannot, at
715715 11 this time, for good cause, prevent or eliminate the need for
716716 12 removal, and removal from home is in the best interests of the
717717 13 minor, the minor's family, and the public.
718718 14 (2) When a minor of the age of at least 13 years is

720720 16 murder; (ii) attempted first degree murder; or (iii) any
721721 17 offense involving the use or discharge of a firearm upon
722722 18 school grounds or any part of a building or grounds used for
723723 19 school purposes, including any conveyance owned, leased, or
724724 20 contracted by a school to transport students to or from school
725725 21 or a school related activity that results in bodily injury or
726726 22 death to any person, the court shall declare the minor a ward

24562456 2 also provide that when the court's sentencing order recommends
24572457 3 a prisoner for substance abuse treatment and the crime was
24582458 4 committed on or after September 1, 2003 (the effective date of
24592459 5 Public Act 93-354), the prisoner shall receive no sentence
24602460 6 credit awarded under clause (3) of this subsection (a) unless
24612461 7 he or she participates in and completes a substance abuse
24622462 8 treatment program. The Director of Corrections may waive the
24632463 9 requirement to participate in or complete a substance abuse
24642464 10 treatment program in specific instances if the prisoner is not
24652465 11 a good candidate for a substance abuse treatment program for
24662466 12 medical, programming, or operational reasons. Availability of
24672467 13 substance abuse treatment shall be subject to the limits of
24682468 14 fiscal resources appropriated by the General Assembly for
24692469 15 these purposes. If treatment is not available and the
24702470 16 requirement to participate and complete the treatment has not
24712471 17 been waived by the Director, the prisoner shall be placed on a
24722472 18 waiting list under criteria established by the Department. The
24732473 19 Director may allow a prisoner placed on a waiting list to
24742474 20 participate in and complete a substance abuse education class
24752475 21 or attend substance abuse self-help meetings in lieu of a

24972497 7 Management Board. However, prisoners who are waiting to
24982498 8 receive treatment, but who are unable to do so due solely to
24992499 9 the lack of resources on the part of the Department, may, at
25002500 10 either Director's sole discretion, be awarded sentence credit
25012501 11 at a rate as the Director shall determine.

25122512 22 required to serve 85% of his or her sentence; or

25392539 13 Section given at any time during the term, the Department
25402540 14 shall give reasonable notice of the impending release not less
25412541 15 than 14 days prior to the date of the release to the State's
25422542 16 Attorney of the county where the prosecution of the inmate
25432543 17 took place, and if applicable, the State's Attorney of the
25442544 18 county into which the inmate will be released. The Department
25452545 19 must also make identification information and a recent photo
25462546 20 of the inmate being released accessible on the Internet by
25472547 21 means of a hyperlink labeled "Community Notification of Inmate
25482548 22 Early Release" on the Department's World Wide Web homepage.

25652565 3 completion of the first year of mandatory supervised release
25662566 4 or return of the inmate to custody of the Department.
25672567 5 (b) Whenever a person is or has been committed under
25682568 6 several convictions, with separate sentences, the sentences
25692569 7 shall be construed under Section 5-8-4 in granting and
25702570 8 forfeiting of sentence credit.
25712571 9 (c) (1) The Department shall prescribe rules and
25722572 10 regulations for revoking sentence credit, including revoking
25732573 11 sentence credit awarded under paragraph (3) of subsection (a)
25742574 12 of this Section. The Department shall prescribe rules and
25752575 13 regulations establishing and requiring the use of a sanctions
25762576 14 matrix for revoking sentence credit. The Department shall
25772577 15 prescribe rules and regulations for suspending or reducing the
25782578 16 rate of accumulation of sentence credit for specific rule
25792579 17 violations, during imprisonment. These rules and regulations
25802580 18 shall provide that no inmate may be penalized more than one
25812581 19 year of sentence credit for any one infraction.
25822582 20 (2) When the Department seeks to revoke, suspend, or
25832583 21 reduce the rate of accumulation of any sentence credits for an
25842584 22 alleged infraction of its rules, it shall bring charges
25852585 23 therefor against the prisoner sought to be so deprived of

26012601 3 cumulative amount of credit revoked exceeds 30 days except
26022602 4 where the infraction is committed or discovered within 60 days
26032603 5 of scheduled release. In those cases, the Department of
26042604 6 Corrections may revoke up to 30 days of sentence credit. The
26052605 7 Board may subsequently approve the revocation of additional
26062606 8 sentence credit, if the Department seeks to revoke sentence
26072607 9 credit in excess of 30 days. However, the Board shall not be
26082608 10 empowered to review the Department's decision with respect to
26092609 11 the loss of 30 days of sentence credit within any calendar year
26102610 12 for any prisoner or to increase any penalty beyond the length
26112611 13 requested by the Department.
26122612 14 (3) The Director of Corrections or the Director of
26132613 15 Juvenile Justice, in appropriate cases, may restore sentence
26142614 16 credits which have been revoked, suspended, or reduced. The
26152615 17 Department shall prescribe rules and regulations governing the
26162616 18 restoration of sentence credits. These rules and regulations
26172617 19 shall provide for the automatic restoration of sentence
26182618 20 credits following a period in which the prisoner maintains a
26192619 21 record without a disciplinary violation.
26202620 22 Nothing contained in this Section shall prohibit the
26212621 23 Prisoner Review Board from ordering, pursuant to Section
26222622 24 3-3-9(a)(3)(i)(B), that a prisoner serve up to one year of the
26232623 25 sentence imposed by the court that was not served due to the

28912891 6 nature and circumstances of the crime and to the history

28932893 8 substantial and compelling justification that the sentence
28942894 9 within the sentencing guidelines would be unduly harsh and
28952895 10 that a sentence otherwise authorized by law would be
28962896 11 consistent with public safety and does not deprecate the
28972897 12 seriousness of the offense.
