832832 9 defendant's conviction;
833833 10 (B) the reasons for retention of the conviction

26602660 2 (C) Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
26612661 3 the court shall not deny a petition for sealing under

26632663 5 an outstanding legal financial obligation established,
26642664 6 imposed, or originated by a court, law enforcement
26652665 7 agency, or a municipal, State, county, or other unit
26662666 8 of local government, including, but not limited to,
26672667 9 any cost, assessment, fine, or fee. An outstanding
26682668 10 legal financial obligation does not include any court
26692669 11 ordered restitution to a victim under Section 5-5-6 of
26702670 12 the Unified Code of Corrections, unless the
26712671 13 restitution has been converted to a civil judgment.

26732673 15 abrogates a legal financial obligation or otherwise
26742674 16 eliminates or affects the right of the holder of any
26752675 17 financial obligation to pursue collection under
26762676 18 applicable federal, State, or local law.
26772677 19 (D) Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
26782678 20 the court shall not deny a petition to expunge or seal
26792679 21 under this Section because the petitioner has
26802680 22 submitted a drug test taken within 30 days before the
26812681 23 filing of the petition to expunge or seal that
26822682 24 indicates a positive test for the presence of cannabis

27012701 7 the Illinois State Police as to the appropriateness of the
27022702 8 relief sought in the petition to expunge or seal. At the
27032703 9 hearing, the court shall hear evidence on whether the
27042704 10 petition should or should not be granted, and shall grant
27052705 11 or deny the petition to expunge or seal the records based
27062706 12 on the evidence presented at the hearing. The court may
27072707 13 consider the following:
27082708 14 (A) the strength of the evidence supporting the
27092709 15 defendant's conviction;
27102710 16 (B) the reasons for retention of the conviction
27112711 17 records by the State;
27122712 18 (C) the petitioner's age, criminal record history,
27132713 19 and employment history;

27152715 21 arrest on the charge resulting in the conviction and
27162716 22 the filing of the petition under this Section; and
27172717 23 (E) the specific adverse consequences the

29502950 4 circuit court clerk may charge a fee equivalent to the
29512951 5 cost associated with the sealing or expungement of records
29522952 6 by the circuit court clerk. From the total filing fee
29532953 7 collected for the petition to seal or expunge, the circuit
29542954 8 court clerk shall deposit $10 into the Circuit Court Clerk
29552955 9 Operation and Administrative Fund, to be used to offset
29562956 10 the costs incurred by the circuit court clerk in
29572957 11 performing the additional duties required to serve the
29582958 12 petition to seal or expunge on all parties. The circuit
29592959 13 court clerk shall collect and remit the Illinois State
29602960 14 Police portion of the fee to the State Treasurer and it
29612961 15 shall be deposited in the State Police Services Fund. If
29622962 16 the record brought under an expungement petition was
29632963 17 previously sealed under this Section, the fee for the
29642964 18 expungement petition for that same record shall be waived.

29662966 20 expungement or sealing provisions of this Section shall
29672967 21 become final for purposes of appeal until 30 days after

29932993 11 under the expungement or sealing provisions of this
29942994 12 Section shall not be considered void because it fails to
29952995 13 comply with the provisions of this Section or because of
29962996 14 any error asserted in a motion to vacate, modify, or
29972997 15 reconsider. The circuit court retains jurisdiction to
29982998 16 determine whether the order is voidable and to vacate,
29992999 17 modify, or reconsider its terms based on a motion filed

30053005 23 the order within 60 days of service of the order even if a
30063006 24 party is seeking relief from the order through a motion
30073007 25 filed under paragraph (12) of this subsection (d) or is
30083008 26 appealing the order.

45274527 5 any charge listed in paragraphs (1) through (6.5), and it
45284528 6 is alleged that the defendant's pretrial release poses a
45294529 7 real and present threat to the safety of any person or
45304530 8 persons or the community, based on the specific
45314531 9 articulable facts of the case; or

45414541 19 been held or a grand jury has returned a true bill of
45424542 20 indictment against the defendant. If there is a finding of no

45634563 5 previously released shall not be detained.
45644564 6 (2) Upon filing, the court shall immediately hold a
45654565 7 hearing on the petition unless a continuance is requested.
45664566 8 If a continuance is requested and granted, the hearing
45674567 9 shall be held within 48 hours of the defendant's first

45804580 22 real and present threat to the safety of any person or
45814581 23 persons or the community, based on the specific
45824582 24 articulable facts or flight risk, as appropriate.

45984598 4 (e) Eligibility: All defendants shall be presumed eligible
45994599 5 for pretrial release, and the State shall bear the burden of
46004600 6 proving by clear and convincing evidence that:
46014601 7 (1) the proof is evident or the presumption great that
46024602 8 the defendant has committed an offense listed in
46034603 9 subsection (a), and
46044604 10 (2) for offenses listed in paragraphs (1) through (7)
46054605 11 of subsection (a), the defendant poses a real and present
46064606 12 threat to the safety of any person or persons or the
46074607 13 community, based on the specific articulable facts of the
46084608 14 case, by conduct which may include, but is not limited to,
46094609 15 a forcible felony, the obstruction of justice,
46104610 16 intimidation, injury, or abuse as defined by paragraph (1)
46114611 17 of Section 103 of the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of
46124612 18 1986, and
46134613 19 (3) no condition or combination of conditions set
46144614 20 forth in subsection (b) of Section 110-10 of this Article
46154615 21 can mitigate (i) the real and present threat to the safety
46164616 22 of any person or persons or the community, based on the
46174617 23 specific articulable facts of the case, for offenses
46184618 24 listed in paragraphs (1) through (7) of subsection (a), or

46324632 2 of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act that are subject
46334633 3 to paragraph (1) of subsection (a), no condition or
46344634 4 combination of conditions set forth in subsection (b) of
46354635 5 Section 110-10 of this Article can mitigate the real and
46364636 6 present threat to the safety of any person or persons or
46374637 7 the community, based on the specific articulable facts of
46384638 8 the case, and the defendant poses a serious risk to not
46394639 9 appear in court as required.
46404640 10 (f) Conduct of the hearings.
46414641 11 (1) Prior to the hearing, the State shall tender to
46424642 12 the defendant copies of the defendant's criminal history
46434643 13 available, any written or recorded statements, and the
46444644 14 substance of any oral statements made by any person, if
46454645 15 relied upon by the State in its petition, and any police
46464646 16 reports in the prosecutor's possession at the time of the
46474647 17 hearing.
46484648 18 (2) The State or defendant may present evidence at the
46494649 19 hearing by way of proffer based upon reliable information.
46504650 20 (3) The defendant has the right to be represented by
46514651 21 counsel, and if he or she is indigent, to have counsel
46524652 22 appointed for him or her. The defendant shall have the
46534653 23 opportunity to testify, to present witnesses on his or her
46544654 24 own behalf, and to cross-examine any witnesses that are
46554655 25 called by the State. Defense counsel shall be given
46564656 26 adequate opportunity to confer with the defendant before

46674667 1 any hearing at which conditions of release or the
46684668 2 detention of the defendant are to be considered, with an
46694669 3 accommodation for a physical condition made to facilitate
46704670 4 attorney/client consultation. If defense counsel needs to
46714671 5 confer or consult with the defendant during any hearing
46724672 6 conducted via a two-way audio-visual communication system,
46734673 7 such consultation shall not be recorded and shall be
46744674 8 undertaken consistent with constitutional protections.
46754675 9 (3.5) A hearing at which pretrial release may be
46764676 10 denied must be conducted in person (and not by way of
46774677 11 two-way audio visual communication) unless the accused
46784678 12 waives the right to be present physically in court, the
46794679 13 court determines that the physical health and safety of
46804680 14 any person necessary to the proceedings would be
46814681 15 endangered by appearing in court, or the chief judge of
46824682 16 the circuit orders use of that system due to operational
46834683 17 challenges in conducting the hearing in person. Such
46844684 18 operational challenges must be documented and approved by
46854685 19 the chief judge of the circuit, and a plan to address the
46864686 20 challenges through reasonable efforts must be presented
46874687 21 and approved by the Administrative Office of the Illinois
46884688 22 Courts every 6 months.
46894689 23 (4) If the defense seeks to compel the complaining
46904690 24 witness to testify as a witness in its favor, it shall
46914691 25 petition the court for permission. When the ends of
46924692 26 justice so require, the court may exercise its discretion

47034703 1 and compel the appearance of a complaining witness. The
47044704 2 court shall state on the record reasons for granting a
47054705 3 defense request to compel the presence of a complaining
47064706 4 witness only on the issue of the defendant's pretrial
47074707 5 detention. In making a determination under this Section,
47084708 6 the court shall state on the record the reason for
47094709 7 granting a defense request to compel the presence of a
47104710 8 complaining witness, and only grant the request if the
47114711 9 court finds by clear and convincing evidence that the
47124712 10 defendant will be materially prejudiced if the complaining
47134713 11 witness does not appear. Cross-examination of a
47144714 12 complaining witness at the pretrial detention hearing for
47154715 13 the purpose of impeaching the witness' credibility is
47164716 14 insufficient reason to compel the presence of the witness.
47174717 15 In deciding whether to compel the appearance of a
47184718 16 complaining witness, the court shall be considerate of the
47194719 17 emotional and physical well-being of the witness. The
47204720 18 pre-trial detention hearing is not to be used for purposes
47214721 19 of discovery, and the post arraignment rules of discovery
47224722 20 do not apply. The State shall tender to the defendant,
47234723 21 prior to the hearing, copies, if any, of the defendant's
47244724 22 criminal history, if available, and any written or
47254725 23 recorded statements and the substance of any oral
47264726 24 statements made by any person, if in the State's
47274727 25 Attorney's possession at the time of the hearing.

47394739 1 in criminal trials do not apply to the presentation and
47404740 2 consideration of information at the hearing. At the trial
47414741 3 concerning the offense for which the hearing was conducted
47424742 4 neither the finding of the court nor any transcript or
47434743 5 other record of the hearing shall be admissible in the
47444744 6 State's case-in-chief, but shall be admissible for
47454745 7 impeachment, or as provided in Section 115-10.1 of this
47464746 8 Code, or in a perjury proceeding.
47474747 9 (6) The defendant may not move to suppress evidence or
47484748 10 a confession, however, evidence that proof of the charged
47494749 11 crime may have been the result of an unlawful search or
47504750 12 seizure, or both, or through improper interrogation, is
47514751 13 relevant in assessing the weight of the evidence against
47524752 14 the defendant.
47534753 15 (7) Decisions regarding release, conditions of
47544754 16 release, and detention prior to trial must be
47554755 17 individualized, and no single factor or standard may be
47564756 18 used exclusively to order detention. Risk assessment tools
47574757 19 may not be used as the sole basis to deny pretrial release.
47584758 20 (g) Factors to be considered in making a determination of
47594759 21 dangerousness. The court may, in determining whether the
47604760 22 defendant poses a real and present threat to the safety of any
47614761 23 person or persons or the community, based on the specific
47624762 24 articulable facts of the case, consider, but shall not be
47634763 25 limited to, evidence or testimony concerning:

48654865 19 of any person or persons or the community, based on the
48664866 20 specific articulable facts of the case, or to prevent the
48674867 21 defendant's willful flight from prosecution.

54945494 4 Sec. 112A-14.7. Stalking or harassment no contact order;
54955495 5 remedies.
54965496 6 (a) The court may order any of the remedies listed in this
54975497 7 Section. The remedies listed in this Section shall be in
54985498 8 addition to other civil or criminal remedies available to
54995499 9 petitioner. A stalking or harassment no contact order shall
55005500 10 order one or more of the following:
55015501 11 (1) prohibit the respondent from threatening to commit
55025502 12 or committing stalking;
55035503 13 (2) order the respondent not to have any contact with
55045504 14 the petitioner or a third person specifically named by the
55055505 15 court;
55065506 16 (3) prohibit the respondent from knowingly coming
55075507 17 within, or knowingly remaining within a specified distance
55085508 18 of the petitioner or the petitioner's residence, school,
55095509 19 daycare, or place of employment, or any specified place
55105510 20 frequented by the petitioner; however, the court may order
55115511 21 the respondent to stay away from the respondent's own
55125512 22 residence, school, or place of employment only if the
55135513 23 respondent has been provided actual notice of the
55145514 24 opportunity to appear and be heard on the petition;

55295529 4 to be necessary to protect the petitioner or third party
55305530 5 specifically named by the court.
55315531 6 (b) When the petitioner and the respondent attend the same
55325532 7 public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or high
55335533 8 school, the court when issuing a stalking or harassment no
55345534 9 contact order and providing relief shall consider the severity
55355535 10 of the act, any continuing physical danger or emotional
55365536 11 distress to the petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed
55375537 12 to the petitioner and respondent under federal and State law,
55385538 13 the availability of a transfer of the respondent to another
55395539 14 school, a change of placement or a change of program of the
55405540 15 respondent, the expense, difficulty, and educational
55415541 16 disruption that would be caused by a transfer of the
55425542 17 respondent to another school, and any other relevant facts of
55435543 18 the case. The court may order that the respondent not attend
55445544 19 the public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or high
55455545 20 school attended by the petitioner, order that the respondent
55465546 21 accept a change of placement or program, as determined by the
55475547 22 school district or private or non-public school, or place
55485548 23 restrictions on the respondent's movements within the school
55495549 24 attended by the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of
55505550 25 proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a transfer,
55515551 26 change of placement, or change of program of the respondent is

55625562 1 not available. The respondent also bears the burden of
55635563 2 production with respect to the expense, difficulty, and
55645564 3 educational disruption that would be caused by a transfer of
55655565 4 the respondent to another school. A transfer, change of
55665566 5 placement, or change of program is not unavailable to the
55675567 6 respondent solely on the ground that the respondent does not
55685568 7 agree with the school district's or private or non-public
55695569 8 school's transfer, change of placement, or change of program
55705570 9 or solely on the ground that the respondent fails or refuses to
55715571 10 consent to or otherwise does not take an action required to
55725572 11 effectuate a transfer, change of placement, or change of
55735573 12 program. When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the
55745574 13 public, private, or non-public school attended by the
55755575 14 petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to another
55765576 15 attendance center within the respondent's school district or
55775577 16 private or non-public school, the school district or private
55785578 17 or non-public school shall have sole discretion to determine
55795579 18 the attendance center to which the respondent is transferred.
55805580 19 If the court order results in a transfer of the minor
55815581 20 respondent to another attendance center, a change in the
55825582 21 respondent's placement, or a change of the respondent's
55835583 22 program, the parents, guardian, or legal custodian of the
55845584 23 respondent is responsible for transportation and other costs
55855585 24 associated with the transfer or change.
55865586 25 (c) The court may order the parents, guardian, or legal
55875587 26 custodian of a minor respondent to take certain actions or to

55985598 1 refrain from taking certain actions to ensure that the
55995599 2 respondent complies with the order. If the court orders a
56005600 3 transfer of the respondent to another school, the parents,
56015601 4 guardian, or legal custodian of the respondent are responsible
56025602 5 for transportation and other costs associated with the change
56035603 6 of school by the respondent.
56045604 7 (d) The court shall not hold a school district or private
56055605 8 or non-public school or any of its employees in civil or
56065606 9 criminal contempt unless the school district or private or
56075607 10 non-public school has been allowed to intervene.
56085608 11 (e) The court may hold the parents, guardian, or legal
56095609 12 custodian of a minor respondent in civil or criminal contempt
56105610 13 for a violation of any provision of any order entered under
56115611 14 this Article for conduct of the minor respondent in violation
56125612 15 of this Article if the parents, guardian, or legal custodian
56135613 16 directed, encouraged, or assisted the respondent minor in the
56145614 17 conduct.
56155615 18 (f) Monetary damages are not recoverable as a remedy.
56165616 19 (g) If the stalking or harassment no contact order
56175617 20 prohibits the respondent from possessing a Firearm Owner's
56185618 21 Identification Card, or possessing or buying firearms; the
56195619 22 court shall confiscate the respondent's Firearm Owner's
56205620 23 Identification Card and immediately return the card to the
56215621 24 Illinois State Police Firearm Owner's Identification Card
56225622 25 Office.

56365636 3 (a) The petitioner may request expedited consideration of
56375637 4 the petition for an ex parte protective order. The court shall
56385638 5 consider the request on an expedited basis without requiring
56395639 6 the respondent's presence or requiring notice to the
56405640 7 respondent.
56415641 8 (b) Issuance of ex parte protective orders in cases

56445644 11 the requirements of this subsection (b) for one or more of the
56455645 12 requested remedies. For each remedy requested, petitioner
56465646 13 shall establish that:

57115711 7 hardships to the respondent of an emergency order
57125712 8 granting the petitioner exclusive possession of the
57135713 9 residence or household; and the remedy shall not be
57145714 10 denied because the petitioner has or could obtain
57155715 11 temporary shelter elsewhere while prior notice is
57165716 12 given to the respondent, unless the hardship to the
57175717 13 respondent from exclusion from the home substantially
57185718 14 outweigh the hardship to the petitioner; or
57195719 15 (C) for the remedy of possession of personal
57205720 16 property described in paragraph (10) of subsection (b)
57215721 17 of Section 112A-14 of this Code; improper disposition
57225722 18 of the personal property would be likely to occur if
57235723 19 the respondent were given any prior notice, or greater

57775777 1 (3) there is good cause to grant the remedy,
57785778 2 regardless of prior service of process or of notice upon
57795779 3 the respondent, because the harm which that remedy is
57805780 4 intended to prevent would be likely to occur if the
57815781 5 respondent were given any prior notice, or greater notice
57825782 6 than was actually given, of the petitioner's efforts to
57835783 7 obtain judicial relief.
57845784 8 The court may order any of the remedies under Section
57855785 9 112A-14.7 of this Code.
57865786 10 (e) Issuance of ex parte protective orders on court
57875787 11 holidays and evenings.
57885788 12 When the court is unavailable at the close of business,
57895789 13 the petitioner may file a petition for an ex parte protective
57905790 14 order before any available circuit judge or associate judge
57915791 15 who may grant relief under this Article. If the judge finds
57925792 16 that petitioner has satisfied the prerequisites in subsection
57935793 17 (b), (c), or (d) of this Section, the judge shall issue an ex
57945794 18 parte protective order.
57955795 19 The chief judge of the circuit court may designate for
57965796 20 each county in the circuit at least one judge to be reasonably
57975797 21 available to issue orally, by telephone, by facsimile, or
57985798 22 otherwise, an ex parte protective order at all times, whether
57995799 23 or not the court is in session.
58005800 24 The judge who issued the order under this Section shall
58015801 25 promptly communicate or convey the order to the sheriff to

58145814 2 Section 112A-28 of this Code. Any order issued under this
58155815 3 Section and any documentation in support of it shall be
58165816 4 certified on the next court day to the appropriate court. The
58175817 5 clerk of that court shall immediately assign a case number,
58185818 6 file the petition, order, and other documents with the court
58195819 7 and enter the order of record and file it with the sheriff for
58205820 8 service under subsection (f) of this Section. Failure to
58215821 9 comply with the requirements of this subsection (e) shall not
58225822 10 affect the validity of the order.
58235823 11 (f) Service of ex parte protective order on respondent.
58245824 12 (1) If an ex parte protective order is entered at the
58255825 13 time a summons or arrest warrant is issued for the
58265826 14 criminal charge, the petition for the protective order,
58275827 15 any supporting affidavits, if any, and the ex parte
58285828 16 protective order that has been issued shall be served with
58295829 17 the summons or arrest warrant. The enforcement of a
58305830 18 protective order under Section 112A-23 of this Code shall
58315831 19 not be affected by the lack of service or delivery,
58325832 20 provided the requirements of subsection (a) of Section
58335833 21 112A-23 of this Code are otherwise met.
58345834 22 (2) If an ex parte protective order is entered after a
58355835 23 summons or arrest warrant is issued and before the
58365836 24 respondent makes an initial appearance in the criminal
58375837 25 case, the summons shall be in the form prescribed by

58505850 2 and shall be accompanied by the petition for the
58515851 3 protective order, any supporting affidavits, if any, and
58525852 4 the ex parte protective order that has been issued.
58535853 5 (3) If an ex parte protective order is entered after
58545854 6 the respondent has been served notice of a petition for a
58555855 7 final protective order and the respondent has requested a
58565856 8 continuance to respond to the petition, the ex parte
58575857 9 protective order shall be served: (A) in open court if the
58585858 10 respondent is present at the proceeding at which the order
58595859 11 was entered; or (B) by summons in the form prescribed by
58605860 12 subsection (d) of Supreme Court Rule 101.
58615861 13 (4) No fee shall be charged for service of summons.
58625862 14 (5) The summons shall be served by the sheriff or
58635863 15 other law enforcement officer at the earliest time and
58645864 16 shall take precedence over other summonses except those of
58655865 17 a similar emergency nature. Special process servers may be
58665866 18 appointed at any time, and their designation shall not
58675867 19 affect the responsibilities and authority of the sheriff
58685868 20 or other official process servers. In a county with a
58695869 21 population over 3,000,000, a special process server may
58705870 22 not be appointed if an ex parte protective order grants
58715871 23 the surrender of a child, the surrender of a firearm or
58725872 24 Firearm Owner's Identification Card, or the exclusive
58735873 25 possession of a shared residence. Process may be served in

58855885 1 (g) Upon 7 days' notice to the petitioner, or a shorter
58865886 2 notice period as the court may prescribe, a respondent subject
58875887 3 to an ex parte protective order may appear and petition the
58885888 4 court to re-hear the petition. Any petition to re-hear shall
58895889 5 be verified and shall allege the following:
58905890 6 (1) that respondent did not receive prior notice of
58915891 7 the initial hearing in which the ex parte protective order
58925892 8 was entered under Section 112A-17.5 of this Code; and
58935893 9 (2) that respondent had a meritorious defense to the
58945894 10 order or any of its remedies or that the order or any of
58955895 11 its remedies was not authorized under this Article.
58965896 12 The verified petition and affidavit shall set forth the
58975897 13 evidence of the meritorious defense that will be presented at
58985898 14 a hearing. If the court finds that the evidence presented at
58995899 15 the hearing on the petition establishes a meritorious defense
59005900 16 by a preponderance of the evidence, the court may decide to
59015901 17 vacate the protective order or modify the remedies.
59025902 18 (h) If the ex parte protective order granted petitioner
59035903 19 exclusive possession of the residence and the petition of
59045904 20 respondent seeks to re-open or vacate that grant, the court
59055905 21 shall set a date for hearing within 14 days on all issues
59065906 22 relating to exclusive possession. Under no circumstances shall
59075907 23 a court continue a hearing concerning exclusive possession
59085908 24 beyond the 14th day except by agreement of the petitioner and
59095909 25 the respondent. Other issues raised by the pleadings may be

59235923 3 order shall remain in effect until the court considers the
59245924 4 request for a final protective order after notice has been
59255925 5 served on the respondent or a default final protective order
59265926 6 is entered, whichever occurs first. If a court date is
59275927 7 scheduled for the issuance of a default protective order and
59285928 8 the petitioner fails to personally appear or appear through
59295929 9 counsel or the prosecuting attorney, the petition shall be
59305930 10 dismissed and the ex parte order terminated.

59965996 5 either the petitioner or the respondent shall request the
59975997 6 clerk of the court to file a certified copy of an order stating
59985998 7 that the specified event has occurred or that the protective
59995999 8 order has been vacated or modified with the sheriff, and the
60006000 9 sheriff shall direct that law enforcement records shall be

60056005 14 paragraph (2), (3), or (4) of subsection (b) of Section
60066006 15 112A-20 of this Article may be extended one or more times, as
60076007 16 required. The petitioner, petitioner's counsel, or the State's
60086008 17 Attorney on the petitioner's behalf shall file the motion for
60096009 18 an extension of the final protective order in the criminal
60106010 19 case and serve the motion in accordance with Supreme Court
60116011 20 Rules 11 and 12. The court shall transfer the motion to the
60126012 21 appropriate court or division for consideration under
60136013 22 subsection (e) of Section 220 of the Illinois Domestic
60146014 23 Violence Act of 1986, subsection (c) of Section 216 of the

61346134 1 (3) The respondent commits the crime of violation of a
61356135 2 civil no contact order when the respondent violates
61366136 3 Section 12-3.8 of the Criminal Code of 2012. Prosecution
61376137 4 for a violation of a civil no contact order shall not bar
61386138 5 concurrent prosecution for any other crime, including any
61396139 6 crime that may have been committed at the time of the
61406140 7 violation of the civil no contact order.
61416141 8 (4) The respondent commits the crime of violation of a

61526152 19 through civil or criminal contempt procedures, as appropriate,
61536153 20 by any court with jurisdiction, regardless where the act or
61546154 21 acts which violated the protective order were committed, to
61556155 22 the extent consistent with the venue provisions of this
61566156 23 Article. Nothing in this Article shall preclude any Illinois

61736173 4 (1) In a contempt proceeding where the petition for a
61746174 5 rule to show cause sets forth facts evidencing an
61756175 6 immediate danger that the respondent will flee the
61766176 7 jurisdiction, conceal a child, or inflict physical abuse
61776177 8 on the petitioner or minor children or on dependent adults
61786178 9 in petitioner's care, the court may order the attachment
61796179 10 of the respondent without prior service of the rule to

61886188 19 of Section 112A-14 of this Code may be enforced by any remedy
61896189 20 provided by Section 607.5 of the Illinois Marriage and
61906190 21 Dissolution of Marriage Act. The court may enforce any order
61916191 22 for support issued under paragraph (12) of subsection (b) of

62186218 13 (1) The existence of a separate, correlative order
62196219 14 entered under Section 112A-15 of this Code.

62566256 15 (3) To the extent permitted by law, the court is
62576257 16 encouraged to:

62606260 19 imposed by any court for respondent's violation of any
62616261 20 protective order or penal statute involving petitioner
62626262 21 as victim and respondent as defendant;
62636263 22 (ii) impose a minimum penalty of 24 hours

87588758 19 Sec. 60. Process.
87598759 20 (a) Any action for a stalking or harassment no contact
87608760 21 order requires that a separate summons be issued and served.
87618761 22 The summons shall be in the form prescribed by Supreme Court
87628762 23 Rule 101(d), except that it shall require the respondent to

87738773 1 answer or appear within 7 days. Attachments to the summons or
87748774 2 notice shall include the petition for stalking or harassment
87758775 3 no contact order and supporting affidavits, if any, and any
87768776 4 emergency stalking or harassment no contact order that has
87778777 5 been issued.
87788778 6 (b) The summons shall be served by the sheriff or other law
87798779 7 enforcement officer at the earliest time and shall take
87808780 8 precedence over other summonses except those of a similar
87818781 9 emergency nature. Special process servers may be appointed at
87828782 10 any time, and their designation shall not affect the
87838783 11 responsibilities and authority of the sheriff or other
87848784 12 official process servers.
87858785 13 (c) Service of process on a member of the respondent's
87868786 14 household or by publication shall be adequate if: (1) the
87878787 15 petitioner has made all reasonable efforts to accomplish
87888788 16 actual service of process personally upon the respondent, but
87898789 17 the respondent cannot be found to effect such service; and (2)
87908790 18 the petitioner files an affidavit or presents sworn testimony
87918791 19 as to those efforts.
87928792 20 (d) A plenary stalking or harassment no contact order may
87938793 21 be entered by default for the remedy sought in the petition, if
87948794 22 the respondent has been served or given notice in accordance
87958795 23 with subsection (a) and if the respondent then fails to appear
87968796 24 as directed or fails to appear on any subsequent appearance or
87978797 25 hearing date agreed to by the parties or set by the court.

88158815 7 (a) A petition for a stalking or harassment no contact
88168816 8 order shall be treated as an expedited proceeding, and no
88178817 9 court may transfer or otherwise decline to decide all or part
88188818 10 of such petition. Nothing in this Section shall prevent the
88198819 11 court from reserving issues if jurisdiction or notice
88208820 12 requirements are not met.
88218821 13 (b) A court in a county with a population above 250,000
88228822 14 shall offer the option of a remote hearing to a petitioner for
88238823 15 a stalking or harassment no contact order. The court has the
88248824 16 discretion to grant or deny the request for a remote hearing.
88258825 17 Each court shall determine the procedure for a remote hearing.
88268826 18 The petitioner and respondent may appear remotely or in
88278827 19 person.
88288828 20 The court shall issue and publish a court order, standing
88298829 21 order, or local rule detailing information about the process
88308830 22 for requesting and participating in a remote court appearance.
88318831 23 The court order, standing order, or local rule shall be
88328832 24 published on the court's website and posted on signs

88538853 10 court.
88548854 11 (b) Any action for a stalking or harassment no contact
88558855 12 order is an expedited proceeding. Continuances shall be

88638863 20 (a) If the court finds that the petitioner has been a
88648864 21 victim of stalking, a stalking or harassment no contact order
88658865 22 shall issue; provided that the petitioner must also satisfy
88668866 23 the requirements of Section 95 on emergency orders or Section
88678867 24 100 on plenary orders. The petitioner shall not be denied a

88788878 1 stalking or harassment no contact order because the petitioner
88798879 2 or the respondent is a minor. The court, when determining
88808880 3 whether or not to issue a stalking or harassment no contact
88818881 4 order, may not require physical injury on the person of the
88828882 5 petitioner. Modification and extension of prior stalking or
88838883 6 harassment no contact orders shall be in accordance with this
88848884 7 Act.
88858885 8 (b) A stalking or harassment no contact order shall order
88868886 9 one or more of the following:
88878887 10 (1) prohibit the respondent from threatening to commit
88888888 11 or committing stalking;
88898889 12 (2) order the respondent not to have any contact with
88908890 13 the petitioner or a third person specifically named by the
88918891 14 court;
88928892 15 (3) prohibit the respondent from knowingly coming
88938893 16 within, or knowingly remaining within a specified distance
88948894 17 of the petitioner or the petitioner's residence, school,
88958895 18 daycare, or place of employment, or any specified place
88968896 19 frequented by the petitioner; however, the court may order
88978897 20 the respondent to stay away from the respondent's own
88988898 21 residence, school, or place of employment only if the
88998899 22 respondent has been provided actual notice of the
89008900 23 opportunity to appear and be heard on the petition;
89018901 24 (4) prohibit the respondent from possessing a Firearm
89028902 25 Owners Identification Card, or possessing or buying
89038903 26 firearms; and

89158915 2 to be necessary to protect the petitioner or third party
89168916 3 specifically named by the court.
89178917 4 (b-5) When the petitioner and the respondent attend the
89188918 5 same public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or
89198919 6 high school, the court when issuing a stalking or harassment
89208920 7 no contact order and providing relief shall consider the
89218921 8 severity of the act, any continuing physical danger or
89228922 9 emotional distress to the petitioner, the educational rights
89238923 10 guaranteed to the petitioner and respondent under federal and
89248924 11 State law, the availability of a transfer of the respondent to
89258925 12 another school, a change of placement or a change of program of
89268926 13 the respondent, the expense, difficulty, and educational
89278927 14 disruption that would be caused by a transfer of the
89288928 15 respondent to another school, and any other relevant facts of
89298929 16 the case. The court may order that the respondent not attend
89308930 17 the public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or high
89318931 18 school attended by the petitioner, order that the respondent
89328932 19 accept a change of placement or program, as determined by the
89338933 20 school district or private or non-public school, or place
89348934 21 restrictions on the respondent's movements within the school
89358935 22 attended by the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of
89368936 23 proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a transfer,
89378937 24 change of placement, or change of program of the respondent is
89388938 25 not available. The respondent also bears the burden of
89398939 26 production with respect to the expense, difficulty, and

89508950 1 educational disruption that would be caused by a transfer of
89518951 2 the respondent to another school. A transfer, change of
89528952 3 placement, or change of program is not unavailable to the
89538953 4 respondent solely on the ground that the respondent does not
89548954 5 agree with the school district's or private or non-public
89558955 6 school's transfer, change of placement, or change of program
89568956 7 or solely on the ground that the respondent fails or refuses to
89578957 8 consent to or otherwise does not take an action required to
89588958 9 effectuate a transfer, change of placement, or change of
89598959 10 program. When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the
89608960 11 public, private, or non-public school attended by the
89618961 12 petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to another
89628962 13 attendance center within the respondent's school district or
89638963 14 private or non-public school, the school district or private
89648964 15 or non-public school shall have sole discretion to determine
89658965 16 the attendance center to which the respondent is transferred.
89668966 17 In the event the court order results in a transfer of the minor
89678967 18 respondent to another attendance center, a change in the
89688968 19 respondent's placement, or a change of the respondent's
89698969 20 program, the parents, guardian, or legal custodian of the
89708970 21 respondent is responsible for transportation and other costs
89718971 22 associated with the transfer or change.
89728972 23 (b-6) The court may order the parents, guardian, or legal
89738973 24 custodian of a minor respondent to take certain actions or to
89748974 25 refrain from taking certain actions to ensure that the
89758975 26 respondent complies with the order. In the event the court

89898989 4 the change of school by the respondent.
89908990 5 (b-7) The court shall not hold a school district or
89918991 6 private or non-public school or any of its employees in civil
89928992 7 or criminal contempt unless the school district or private or
89938993 8 non-public school has been allowed to intervene.
89948994 9 (b-8) The court may hold the parents, guardian, or legal
89958995 10 custodian of a minor respondent in civil or criminal contempt
89968996 11 for a violation of any provision of any order entered under
89978997 12 this Act for conduct of the minor respondent in violation of
89988998 13 this Act if the parents, guardian, or legal custodian
89998999 14 directed, encouraged, or assisted the respondent minor in such
90009000 15 conduct.
90019001 16 (c) The court may award the petitioner costs and attorneys

90059005 20 prohibits the respondent from possessing a Firearm Owner's
90069006 21 Identification Card, or possessing or buying firearms; the
90079007 22 court shall confiscate the respondent's Firearm Owner's
90089008 23 Identification Card and immediately return the card to the
90099009 24 Illinois State Police Firearm Owner's Identification Card
90109010 25 Office.

90409040 19 (a) An emergency stalking or harassment no contact order
90419041 20 shall issue if the petitioner satisfies the requirements of
90429042 21 this subsection (a). The petitioner shall establish that:
90439043 22 (1) the court has jurisdiction under Section 50;
90449044 23 (2) the requirements of Section 80 are satisfied; and

90549054 SB3574 - 253 - LRB103 34161 LNS 63981 b
90559055 1 (3) there is good cause to grant the remedy,
90569056 2 regardless of prior service of process or of notice upon
90579057 3 the respondent, because the harm which that remedy is
90589058 4 intended to prevent would be likely to occur if the
90599059 5 respondent were given any prior notice, or greater notice
90609060 6 than was actually given, of the petitioner's efforts to
90619061 7 obtain judicial relief.
90629062 8 An emergency stalking or harassment no contact order shall
90639063 9 be issued by the court if it appears from the contents of the
90649064 10 petition and the examination of the petitioner that the
90659065 11 averments are sufficient to indicate stalking by the
90669066 12 respondent and to support the granting of relief under the
90679067 13 issuance of the stalking or harassment no contact order.
90689068 14 An emergency stalking or harassment no contact order shall
90699069 15 be issued if the court finds that items (1), (2), and (3) of
90709070 16 this subsection (a) are met.
90719071 17 (a-5) When a petition for an emergency stalking or
90729072 18 harassment no contact order is granted, the petition, order,
90739073 19 and file shall not be public and shall only be accessible to
90749074 20 the court, law enforcement, petitioner, victim advocate,
90759075 21 counsel of record for either party, and the State's Attorney
90769076 22 for the county until the order is served on the respondent.
90779077 23 (b) If the respondent appears in court for this hearing
90789078 24 for an emergency order, he or she may elect to file a general

91029102 12 or harassment no contact order.
91039103 13 (2) The chief judge of the circuit court may designate
91049104 14 for each county in the circuit at least one judge to be
91059105 15 reasonably available to issue orally, by telephone, by

91329132 6 Sec. 95. Emergency stalking or harassment no contact
91339133 7 order.
91349134 8 (a) An emergency stalking or harassment no contact order
91359135 9 shall issue if the petitioner satisfies the requirements of
91369136 10 this subsection (a). The petitioner shall establish that:
91379137 11 (1) the court has jurisdiction under Section 50;
91389138 12 (2) the requirements of Section 80 are satisfied; and
91399139 13 (3) there is good cause to grant the remedy,
91409140 14 regardless of prior service of process or of notice upon
91419141 15 the respondent, because the harm which that remedy is
91429142 16 intended to prevent would be likely to occur if the
91439143 17 respondent were given any prior notice, or greater notice
91449144 18 than was actually given, of the petitioner's efforts to
91459145 19 obtain judicial relief.
91469146 20 An emergency stalking or harassment no contact order shall
91479147 21 be issued by the court if it appears from the contents of the
91489148 22 petition and the examination of the petitioner that the
91499149 23 averments are sufficient to indicate stalking by the
91509150 24 respondent and to support the granting of relief under the
91519151 25 issuance of the stalking or harassment no contact order.

91629162 1 An emergency stalking or harassment no contact order shall
91639163 2 be issued if the court finds that items (1), (2), and (3) of
91649164 3 this subsection (a) are met.
91659165 4 (a-5) When a petition for an emergency stalking or
91669166 5 harassment no contact order is granted, the petition, order,
91679167 6 and file shall not be public and shall only be accessible to
91689168 7 the court, law enforcement, petitioner, victim advocate,
91699169 8 counsel of record for either party, and State's Attorney for
91709170 9 the county until the order is served on the respondent.
91719171 10 Accessibility to the petition, order, and file under this
91729172 11 subsection prior to the petition being served on the
91739173 12 respondent shall be in accordance with Section 5 of the Court
91749174 13 Record and Document Accessibility Act.
91759175 14 (b) If the respondent appears in court for this hearing
91769176 15 for an emergency order, he or she may elect to file a general
91779177 16 appearance and testify. Any resulting order may be an
91789178 17 emergency order, governed by this Section. Notwithstanding the
91799179 18 requirements of this Section, if all requirements of Section
91809180 19 100 have been met, the court may issue a plenary order.
91819181 20 (c) Emergency orders; court holidays and evenings.
91829182 21 (1) When the court is unavailable at the close of
91839183 22 business, the petitioner may file a petition for a 21-day
91849184 23 emergency order before any available circuit judge or
91859185 24 associate judge who may grant relief under this Act. If

91989198 1 petitioner has satisfied the prerequisites set forth in
91999199 2 subsection (a), that judge may issue an emergency stalking
92009200 3 or harassment no contact order.
92019201 4 (2) The chief judge of the circuit court may designate
92029202 5 for each county in the circuit at least one judge to be
92039203 6 reasonably available to issue orally, by telephone, by
92049204 7 facsimile, or otherwise, an emergency stalking or
92059205 8 harassment no contact order at all times, whether or not
92069206 9 the court is in session.
92079207 10 (3) Any order issued under this Section and any
92089208 11 documentation in support of the order shall be certified
92099209 12 on the next court day to the appropriate court. The clerk
92109210 13 of that court shall immediately assign a case number, file
92119211 14 the petition, order, and other documents with the court,
92129212 15 and enter the order of record and file it with the sheriff
92139213 16 for service, in accordance with Section 60. Filing the
92149214 17 petition shall commence proceedings for further relief
92159215 18 under Section 20. Failure to comply with the requirements
92169216 19 of this paragraph (3) does not affect the validity of the
92179217 20 order.

92399239 7 the respondent or process was served on the respondent in
92409240 8 the manner required by Section 60; and
92419241 9 (4) the respondent has answered or is in default.

92449244 12 Sec. 105. Duration and extension of orders.
92459245 13 (a) Unless re-opened or extended or voided by entry of an
92469246 14 order of greater duration, an emergency order shall be
92479247 15 effective for not less than 14 nor more than 21 days.
92489248 16 (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, a
92499249 17 plenary stalking or harassment no contact order shall be
92509250 18 effective for a fixed period of time, not to exceed 2 years. A
92519251 19 stalking or harassment no contact order entered in conjunction
92529252 20 with a criminal prosecution or delinquency petition shall
92539253 21 remain in effect as provided in Section 112A-20 of the Code of
92549254 22 Criminal Procedure of 1963.
92559255 23 (c) Any emergency or plenary order may be extended one or
92569256 24 more times, as required, provided that the requirements of
92579257 25 Section 95 or 100, as appropriate, are satisfied. If the

92689268 1 motion for extension is uncontested and the petitioner seeks
92699269 2 no modification of the order, the order may be extended on the
92709270 3 basis of the petitioner's motion or affidavit stating that
92719271 4 there has been no material change in relevant circumstances
92729272 5 since entry of the order and stating the reason for the
92739273 6 requested extension. Extensions may be granted only in open
92749274 7 court and not under the provisions of subsection (c) of
92759275 8 Section 95, which applies only when the court is unavailable
92769276 9 at the close of business or on a court holiday.
92779277 10 (d) Any stalking or harassment no contact order which
92789278 11 would expire on a court holiday shall instead expire at the
92799279 12 close of the next court business day.
92809280 13 (e) The practice of dismissing or suspending a criminal
92819281 14 prosecution in exchange for the issuance of a stalking or
92829282 15 harassment no contact order undermines the purposes of this
92839283 16 Act. This Section shall not be construed as encouraging that
92849284 17 practice.

93109310 8 (3) The date, time, and place for any scheduled

93179317 15 notice than was actually given.
93189318 16 (5) For emergency stalking or harassment no contact
93199319 17 orders, that the respondent may petition the court, in
93209320 18 accordance with Section 120, to reopen the order if he or
93219321 19 she did not receive actual prior notice of the hearing as
93229322 20 required under Section 65 of this Act and if the
93239323 21 respondent alleges that he or she had a meritorious
93249324 22 defense to the order or that the order or its remedy is not
93259325 23 authorized by this Act.
93269326 24 (c) A stalking or harassment no contact order shall

93469346 8 (1) enter the order on the record and file it in
93479347 9 accordance with the circuit court procedures; and
93489348 10 (2) provide a file stamped copy of the order to the

93529352 14 no contact order is issued, file a certified copy of that order
93539353 15 with the sheriff or other law enforcement officials charged
93549354 16 with maintaining Illinois State Police records or charged with
93559355 17 serving the order upon the respondent. If the respondent, at
93569356 18 the time of the issuance of the order, is committed to the
93579357 19 custody of the Illinois Department of Corrections or Illinois
93589358 20 Department of Juvenile Justice or is on parole, aftercare
93599359 21 release, or mandatory supervised release, the sheriff or other
93609360 22 law enforcement officials charged with maintaining Illinois
93619361 23 State Police records shall notify the Department of

93869386 13 server, or other persons defined in Section 117 may serve the
93879387 14 respondent with a short form notification as provided in

93899389 16 respondent, it shall be served with the order or short form
93909390 17 notification if such service is made by the sheriff, other law
93919391 18 enforcement official, or special process server.
93929392 19 (d) If the person against whom the stalking or harassment
93939393 20 no contact order is issued is arrested and the written order is
93949394 21 issued in accordance with subsection (c) of Section 95 and
93959395 22 received by the custodial law enforcement agency before the
93969396 23 respondent or arrestee is released from custody, the custodial
