305	305	21 probable cause, the defendant shall be released. No such
306	306	22 finding is necessary if the defendant is charged with a
307	307	23 misdemeanor.
308	308	24 (c) Timing of petition.
309	309	25 (1) A petition may be filed without prior notice to

321	321	1 within the 21 calendar days, except as provided in Section
322	322	2 110-6, after arrest and release of the defendant upon
323	323	3 reasonable notice to defendant; provided that while such
324	324	4 petition is pending before the court, the defendant if
325	325	5 previously released shall not be detained.
326	326	6 (2) Upon filing, the court shall immediately hold a
327	327	7 hearing on the petition unless a continuance is requested.
328	328	8 If a continuance is requested and granted, the hearing
329	329	9 shall be held within 48 hours of the defendant's first
330	330	10 appearance if the defendant is charged with first degree
331	331	11 murder or a Class X, Class 1, Class 2, or Class 3 felony,
332	332	12 and within 24 hours if the defendant is charged with a
333	333	13 Class 4 or misdemeanor offense. The Court may deny or
334	334	14 grant the request for continuance. If the court decides to
335	335	15 grant the continuance, the Court retains the discretion to
336	336	16 detain or release the defendant in the time between the
337	337	17 filing of the petition and the hearing.
338	338	18 (d) Contents of petition.
339	339	19 (1) The petition shall be verified by the State and
340	340	20 shall state the grounds upon which it contends the
341	341	21 defendant should be denied pretrial release, including the
342	342	22 real and present threat to the safety of any person or
343	343	23 persons or the community, based on the specific
344	344	24 articulable facts or flight risk, as appropriate.
345	345	25 (2) If the State seeks to file a second or subsequent
346	346	26 petition under this Section, the State shall be required

358	358	2 any new facts not known or obtainable at the time of the
359	359	3 filing of the previous petition.
360	360	4 (e) Eligibility: All defendants shall be presumed eligible
361	361	5 for pretrial release, and the State shall bear the burden of
362	362	6 proving by clear and convincing evidence that:
363	363	7 (1) the proof is evident or the presumption great that
364	364	8 the defendant has committed an offense listed in
365	365	9 subsection (a), and
366	366	10 (2) for offenses listed in paragraphs (1) through (7)
367	367	11 of subsection (a), the defendant poses a real and present
368	368	12 threat to the safety of any person or persons or the
369	369	13 community, based on the specific articulable facts of the
370	370	14 case, by conduct which may include, but is not limited to,
371	371	15 a forcible felony, the obstruction of justice,
372	372	16 intimidation, injury, or abuse as defined by paragraph (1)
373	373	17 of Section 103 of the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of
374	374	18 1986, and
375	375	19 (3) no condition or combination of conditions set
376	376	20 forth in subsection (b) of Section 110-10 of this Article
377	377	21 can mitigate (i) the real and present threat to the safety
378	378	22 of any person or persons or the community, based on the
379	379	23 specific articulable facts of the case, for offenses
380	380	24 listed in paragraphs (1) through (7) of subsection (a), or
381	381	25 (ii) the defendant's willful flight for offenses listed in

393	393	1 (4) for offenses under subsection (b) of Section 407
394	394	2 of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act that are subject
395	395	3 to paragraph (1) of subsection (a), no condition or
396	396	4 combination of conditions set forth in subsection (b) of
397	397	5 Section 110-10 of this Article can mitigate the real and
398	398	6 present threat to the safety of any person or persons or
399	399	7 the community, based on the specific articulable facts of
400	400	8 the case, and the defendant poses a serious risk to not
401	401	9 appear in court as required.
402	402	10 (f) Conduct of the hearings.
403	403	11 (1) Prior to the hearing, the State shall tender to
404	404	12 the defendant copies of the defendant's criminal history
405	405	13 available, any written or recorded statements, and the
406	406	14 substance of any oral statements made by any person, if
407	407	15 relied upon by the State in its petition, and any police
408	408	16 reports in the prosecutor's possession at the time of the
409	409	17 hearing.
410	410	18 (2) The State or defendant may present evidence at the
411	411	19 hearing by way of proffer based upon reliable information.
412	412	20 (3) The defendant has the right to be represented by
413	413	21 counsel, and if he or she is indigent, to have counsel
414	414	22 appointed for him or her. The defendant shall have the
415	415	23 opportunity to testify, to present witnesses on his or her
416	416	24 own behalf, and to cross-examine any witnesses that are
417	417	25 called by the State. Defense counsel shall be given
418	418	26 adequate opportunity to confer with the defendant before
419	419

429	429	1 any hearing at which conditions of release or the
430	430	2 detention of the defendant are to be considered, with an
431	431	3 accommodation for a physical condition made to facilitate
432	432	4 attorney/client consultation. If defense counsel needs to
433	433	5 confer or consult with the defendant during any hearing
434	434	6 conducted via a two-way audio-visual communication system,
435	435	7 such consultation shall not be recorded and shall be
436	436	8 undertaken consistent with constitutional protections.
437	437	9 (3.5) A hearing at which pretrial release may be
438	438	10 denied must be conducted in person (and not by way of
439	439	11 two-way audio visual communication) unless the accused
440	440	12 waives the right to be present physically in court, the
441	441	13 court determines that the physical health and safety of
442	442	14 any person necessary to the proceedings would be
443	443	15 endangered by appearing in court, or the chief judge of
444	444	16 the circuit orders use of that system due to operational
445	445	17 challenges in conducting the hearing in person. Such
446	446	18 operational challenges must be documented and approved by
447	447	19 the chief judge of the circuit, and a plan to address the
448	448	20 challenges through reasonable efforts must be presented
449	449	21 and approved by the Administrative Office of the Illinois
450	450	22 Courts every 6 months.
451	451	23 (4) If the defense seeks to compel the complaining
452	452	24 witness to testify as a witness in its favor, it shall
453	453	25 petition the court for permission. When the ends of
454	454	26 justice so require, the court may exercise its discretion

464	464	HB0078 - 13 - LRB104 03274 RLC 13296 b
465	465	1 and compel the appearance of a complaining witness. The
466	466	2 court shall state on the record reasons for granting a
467	467	3 defense request to compel the presence of a complaining
468	468	4 witness only on the issue of the defendant's pretrial
469	469	5 detention. In making a determination under this Section,
470	470	6 the court shall state on the record the reason for
471	471	7 granting a defense request to compel the presence of a
472	472	8 complaining witness, and only grant the request if the
473	473	9 court finds by clear and convincing evidence that the
474	474	10 defendant will be materially prejudiced if the complaining
475	475	11 witness does not appear. Cross-examination of a
476	476	12 complaining witness at the pretrial detention hearing for
477	477	13 the purpose of impeaching the witness' credibility is
478	478	14 insufficient reason to compel the presence of the witness.
479	479	15 In deciding whether to compel the appearance of a
480	480	16 complaining witness, the court shall be considerate of the
481	481	17 emotional and physical well-being of the witness. The
482	482	18 pre-trial detention hearing is not to be used for purposes
483	483	19 of discovery, and the post arraignment rules of discovery
484	484	20 do not apply. The State shall tender to the defendant,
485	485	21 prior to the hearing, copies, if any, of the defendant's
486	486	22 criminal history, if available, and any written or
487	487	23 recorded statements and the substance of any oral
488	488	24 statements made by any person, if in the State's
489	489	25 Attorney's possession at the time of the hearing.

501	501	1 in criminal trials do not apply to the presentation and
502	502	2 consideration of information at the hearing. At the trial
503	503	3 concerning the offense for which the hearing was conducted
504	504	4 neither the finding of the court nor any transcript or
505	505	5 other record of the hearing shall be admissible in the
506	506	6 State's case-in-chief, but shall be admissible for
507	507	7 impeachment, or as provided in Section 115-10.1 of this
508	508	8 Code, or in a perjury proceeding.
509	509	9 (6) The defendant may not move to suppress evidence or
510	510	10 a confession, however, evidence that proof of the charged
511	511	11 crime may have been the result of an unlawful search or
512	512	12 seizure, or both, or through improper interrogation, is
513	513	13 relevant in assessing the weight of the evidence against
514	514	14 the defendant.
515	515	15 (7) Decisions regarding release, conditions of
516	516	16 release, and detention prior to trial must be
517	517	17 individualized, and no single factor or standard may be
518	518	18 used exclusively to order detention. Risk assessment tools
519	519	19 may not be used as the sole basis to deny pretrial release.
520	520	20 (g) Factors to be considered in making a determination of
521	521	21 dangerousness. The court may, in determining whether the
522	522	22 defendant poses a real and present threat to the safety of any
523	523	23 person or persons or the community, based on the specific
524	524	24 articulable facts of the case, consider, but shall not be
525	525	25 limited to, evidence or testimony concerning:

537	537	1 charged, including whether the offense is a crime of
538	538	2 violence, involving a weapon, or a sex offense.
539	539	3 (2) The history and characteristics of the defendant
540	540	4 including:
541	541	5 (A) Any evidence of the defendant's prior criminal
542	542	6 history indicative of violent, abusive or assaultive
543	543	7 behavior, or lack of such behavior. Such evidence may
544	544	8 include testimony or documents received in juvenile
545	545	9 proceedings, criminal, quasi-criminal, civil
546	546	10 commitment, domestic relations, or other proceedings.
547	547	11 (B) Any evidence of the defendant's psychological,
548	548	12 psychiatric or other similar social history which
549	549	13 tends to indicate a violent, abusive, or assaultive
550	550	14 nature, or lack of any such history.
551	551	15 (3) The identity of any person or persons to whose
552	552	16 safety the defendant is believed to pose a threat, and the
553	553	17 nature of the threat.
554	554	18 (4) Any statements made by, or attributed to the
555	555	19 defendant, together with the circumstances surrounding
556	556	20 them.
557	557	21 (5) The age and physical condition of the defendant.
558	558	22 (6) The age and physical condition of any victim or
559	559	23 complaining witness.
560	560	24 (7) Whether the defendant is known to possess or have
561	561	25 access to any weapon or weapons.

573	573	1 other offense or arrest, the defendant was on probation,

575	575	3 other release from custody pending trial, sentencing,
576	576	4 appeal or completion of sentence for an offense under
577	577	5 federal or state law.
578	578	6 (9) Any other factors, including those listed in
579	579	7 Section 110-5 of this Article deemed by the court to have a
580	580	8 reasonable bearing upon the defendant's propensity or
581	581	9 reputation for violent, abusive, or assaultive behavior,
582	582	10 or lack of such behavior.
583	583	11 (h) Detention order. The court shall, in any order for
584	584	12 detention:
585	585	13 (1) make a written finding summarizing the court's
586	586	14 reasons for concluding that the defendant should be denied
587	587	15 pretrial release, including why less restrictive
588	588	16 conditions would not avoid a real and present threat to
589	589	17 the safety of any person or persons or the community,
590	590	18 based on the specific articulable facts of the case, or
591	591	19 prevent the defendant's willful flight from prosecution;
592	592	20 (2) direct that the defendant be committed to the
593	593	21 custody of the sheriff for confinement in the county jail
594	594	22 pending trial;
595	595	23 (3) direct that the defendant be given a reasonable
596	596	24 opportunity for private consultation with counsel, and for
597	597	25 communication with others of his or her choice by
598	598	26 visitation, mail and telephone; and

610	610	2 required for appearances in connection with court
611	611	3 proceedings.
612	612	4 (i) Detention. If the court enters an order for the
613	613	5 detention of the defendant pursuant to subsection (e) of this
614	614	6 Section, the defendant shall be brought to trial on the
615	615	7 offense for which he is detained within 90 days after the date
616	616	8 on which the order for detention was entered. If the defendant
617	617	9 is not brought to trial within the 90-day period required by
618	618	10 the preceding sentence, he shall not be denied pretrial
619	619	11 release. In computing the 90-day period, the court shall omit
620	620	12 any period of delay resulting from a continuance granted at
621	621	13 the request of the defendant and any period of delay resulting
622	622	14 from a continuance granted at the request of the State with
623	623	15 good cause shown pursuant to Section 103-5.
624	624	16 (i-5) At each subsequent appearance of the defendant
625	625	17 before the court, the judge must find that continued detention
626	626	18 is necessary to avoid a real and present threat to the safety
627	627	19 of any person or persons or the community, based on the
628	628	20 specific articulable facts of the case, or to prevent the
629	629	21 defendant's willful flight from prosecution.
630	630	22 (j) Rights of the defendant. The defendant shall be
631	631	23 entitled to appeal any order entered under this Section
632	632	24 denying his or her pretrial release.
633	633	25 (k) Appeal. The State may appeal any order entered under
634	634	26 this Section denying any motion for denial of pretrial

646	646	2 (l) Presumption of innocence. Nothing in this Section
647	647	3 shall be construed as modifying or limiting in any way the
648	648	4 defendant's presumption of innocence in further criminal
649	649	5 proceedings.
650	650	6 (m) Interest of victims.
651	651	7 (1) Crime victims shall be given notice by the State's
652	652	8 Attorney's office of this hearing as required in paragraph (1)
653	653	9 of subsection (b) of Section 4.5 of the Rights of Crime Victims
654	654	10 and Witnesses Act and shall be informed of their opportunity
655	655	11 at this hearing to obtain a protective order.
656	656	12 (2) If the defendant is denied pretrial release, the court
657	657	13 may impose a no contact provision with the victim or other
658	658	14 interested party that shall be enforced while the defendant

1005	1005	2 detention of the defendant are to be considered, with an
1006	1006	3 accommodation for a physical condition made to facilitate
1007	1007	4 attorney/client consultation. If defense counsel needs to
1008	1008	5 confer or consult with the defendant during any hearing
1009	1009	6 conducted via a two-way audio-visual communication system,
1010	1010	7 such consultation shall not be recorded and shall be
1011	1011	8 undertaken consistent with constitutional protections.
1012	1012	9 (3.5) A hearing at which pretrial release may be
1013	1013	10 denied must be conducted in person (and not by way of
1014	1014	11 two-way audio visual communication) unless the accused
1015	1015	12 waives the right to be present physically in court, the
1016	1016	13 court determines that the physical health and safety of
1017	1017	14 any person necessary to the proceedings would be
1018	1018	15 endangered by appearing in court, or the chief judge of
1019	1019	16 the circuit orders use of that system due to operational
1020	1020	17 challenges in conducting the hearing in person. Such
1021	1021	18 operational challenges must be documented and approved by
1022	1022	19 the chief judge of the circuit, and a plan to address the
1023	1023	20 challenges through reasonable efforts must be presented
1024	1024	21 and approved by the Administrative Office of the Illinois
1025	1025	22 Courts every 6 months.
1026	1026	23 (4) If the defense seeks to compel the complaining
1027	1027	24 witness to testify as a witness in its favor, it shall
1028	1028	25 petition the court for permission. When the ends of
1029	1029	26 justice so require, the court may exercise its discretion

1040	1040	1 and compel the appearance of a complaining witness. The
1041	1041	2 court shall state on the record reasons for granting a
1042	1042	3 defense request to compel the presence of a complaining
1043	1043	4 witness only on the issue of the defendant's pretrial
1044	1044	5 detention. In making a determination under this Section,
1045	1045	6 the court shall state on the record the reason for
1046	1046	7 granting a defense request to compel the presence of a
1047	1047	8 complaining witness, and only grant the request if the
1048	1048	9 court finds by clear and convincing evidence that the
1049	1049	10 defendant will be materially prejudiced if the complaining
1050	1050	11 witness does not appear. Cross-examination of a
1051	1051	12 complaining witness at the pretrial detention hearing for
1052	1052	13 the purpose of impeaching the witness' credibility is
1053	1053	14 insufficient reason to compel the presence of the witness.
1054	1054	15 In deciding whether to compel the appearance of a
1055	1055	16 complaining witness, the court shall be considerate of the
1056	1056	17 emotional and physical well-being of the witness. The
1057	1057	18 pre-trial detention hearing is not to be used for purposes
1058	1058	19 of discovery, and the post arraignment rules of discovery
1059	1059	20 do not apply. The State shall tender to the defendant,
1060	1060	21 prior to the hearing, copies, if any, of the defendant's
1061	1061	22 criminal history, if available, and any written or
1062	1062	23 recorded statements and the substance of any oral
1063	1063	24 statements made by any person, if in the State's
1064	1064	25 Attorney's possession at the time of the hearing.

1076	1076	1 in criminal trials do not apply to the presentation and
1077	1077	2 consideration of information at the hearing. At the trial
1078	1078	3 concerning the offense for which the hearing was conducted
1079	1079	4 neither the finding of the court nor any transcript or
1080	1080	5 other record of the hearing shall be admissible in the
1081	1081	6 State's case-in-chief, but shall be admissible for
1082	1082	7 impeachment, or as provided in Section 115-10.1 of this
1083	1083	8 Code, or in a perjury proceeding.
1084	1084	9 (6) The defendant may not move to suppress evidence or
1085	1085	10 a confession, however, evidence that proof of the charged
1086	1086	11 crime may have been the result of an unlawful search or
1087	1087	12 seizure, or both, or through improper interrogation, is
1088	1088	13 relevant in assessing the weight of the evidence against
1089	1089	14 the defendant.
1090	1090	15 (7) Decisions regarding release, conditions of
1091	1091	16 release, and detention prior to trial must be
1092	1092	17 individualized, and no single factor or standard may be
1093	1093	18 used exclusively to order detention. Risk assessment tools
1094	1094	19 may not be used as the sole basis to deny pretrial release.
1095	1095	20 (g) Factors to be considered in making a determination of
1096	1096	21 dangerousness. The court may, in determining whether the
1097	1097	22 defendant poses a real and present threat to the safety of any
1098	1098	23 person or persons or the community, based on the specific
1099	1099	24 articulable facts of the case, consider, but shall not be
1100	1100	25 limited to, evidence or testimony concerning:

1113	1113	2 violence, involving a weapon, or a sex offense.
1114	1114	3 (2) The history and characteristics of the defendant
1115	1115	4 including:
1116	1116	5 (A) Any evidence of the defendant's prior criminal
1117	1117	6 history indicative of violent, abusive or assaultive
1118	1118	7 behavior, or lack of such behavior. Such evidence may
1119	1119	8 include testimony or documents received in juvenile
1120	1120	9 proceedings, criminal, quasi-criminal, civil
1121	1121	10 commitment, domestic relations, or other proceedings.
1122	1122	11 (B) Any evidence of the defendant's psychological,
1123	1123	12 psychiatric or other similar social history which
1124	1124	13 tends to indicate a violent, abusive, or assaultive
1125	1125	14 nature, or lack of any such history.
1126	1126	15 (3) The identity of any person or persons to whose
1127	1127	16 safety the defendant is believed to pose a threat, and the
1128	1128	17 nature of the threat.
1129	1129	18 (4) Any statements made by, or attributed to the
1130	1130	19 defendant, together with the circumstances surrounding
1131	1131	20 them.
1132	1132	21 (5) The age and physical condition of the defendant.
1133	1133	22 (6) The age and physical condition of any victim or
1134	1134	23 complaining witness.
1135	1135	24 (7) Whether the defendant is known to possess or have
1136	1136	25 access to any weapon or weapons.

1150	1150	3 other release from custody pending trial, sentencing,
1151	1151	4 appeal or completion of sentence for an offense under
1152	1152	5 federal or state law.
1153	1153	6 (9) Any other factors, including those listed in
1154	1154	7 Section 110-5 of this Article deemed by the court to have a
1155	1155	8 reasonable bearing upon the defendant's propensity or
1156	1156	9 reputation for violent, abusive, or assaultive behavior,
1157	1157	10 or lack of such behavior.
1158	1158	11 (h) Detention order. The court shall, in any order for
1159	1159	12 detention:
1160	1160	13 (1) make a written finding summarizing the court's
1161	1161	14 reasons for concluding that the defendant should be denied
1162	1162	15 pretrial release, including why less restrictive
1163	1163	16 conditions would not avoid a real and present threat to
1164	1164	17 the safety of any person or persons or the community,
1165	1165	18 based on the specific articulable facts of the case, or
1166	1166	19 prevent the defendant's willful flight from prosecution;
1167	1167	20 (2) direct that the defendant be committed to the
1168	1168	21 custody of the sheriff for confinement in the county jail
1169	1169	22 pending trial;
1170	1170	23 (3) direct that the defendant be given a reasonable
1171	1171	24 opportunity for private consultation with counsel, and for
1172	1172	25 communication with others of his or her choice by
1173	1173	26 visitation, mail and telephone; and

1184	1184	1 (4) direct that the sheriff deliver the defendant as
1185	1185	2 required for appearances in connection with court
1186	1186	3 proceedings.
1187	1187	4 (i) Detention. If the court enters an order for the
1188	1188	5 detention of the defendant pursuant to subsection (e) of this
1189	1189	6 Section, the defendant shall be brought to trial on the
1190	1190	7 offense for which he is detained within 90 days after the date
1191	1191	8 on which the order for detention was entered. If the defendant
1192	1192	9 is not brought to trial within the 90-day period required by
1193	1193	10 the preceding sentence, he shall not be denied pretrial
1194	1194	11 release. In computing the 90-day period, the court shall omit
1195	1195	12 any period of delay resulting from a continuance granted at
1196	1196	13 the request of the defendant and any period of delay resulting
1197	1197	14 from a continuance granted at the request of the State with
1198	1198	15 good cause shown pursuant to Section 103-5.
1199	1199	16 (i-5) At each subsequent appearance of the defendant
1200	1200	17 before the court, the judge must find that continued detention
1201	1201	18 is necessary to avoid a real and present threat to the safety
1202	1202	19 of any person or persons or the community, based on the
1203	1203	20 specific articulable facts of the case, or to prevent the
1204	1204	21 defendant's willful flight from prosecution.
1205	1205	22 (j) Rights of the defendant. The defendant shall be
1206	1206	23 entitled to appeal any order entered under this Section
1207	1207	24 denying his or her pretrial release.
1208	1208	25 (k) Appeal. The State may appeal any order entered under
1209	1209	26 this Section denying any motion for denial of pretrial

1221	1221	2 (l) Presumption of innocence. Nothing in this Section
1222	1222	3 shall be construed as modifying or limiting in any way the
1223	1223	4 defendant's presumption of innocence in further criminal
1224	1224	5 proceedings.
1225	1225	6 (m) Interest of victims.
1226	1226	7 (1) Crime victims shall be given notice by the State's
1227	1227	8 Attorney's office of this hearing as required in paragraph (1)
1228	1228	9 of subsection (b) of Section 4.5 of the Rights of Crime Victims
1229	1229	10 and Witnesses Act and shall be informed of their opportunity
1230	1230	11 at this hearing to obtain a protective order.
1231	1231	12 (2) If the defendant is denied pretrial release, the court
1232	1232	13 may impose a no contact provision with the victim or other
1233	1233	14 interested party that shall be enforced while the defendant
1234	1234	15 remains in custody.
