| ||
(a) In each case, the court shall order an assessment at | ||
the time of sentencing , as set forth in this Act, for a | ||
defendant to pay in addition to any fine, restitution, or | ||
forfeiture ordered by the court when the defendant is convicted | ||
of, pleads guilty to, or is placed on court supervision for a | ||

ordinance. The court may order a fine, restitution, or | ||
forfeiture on any violation that is being sentenced but shall | ||
order only one assessment from the Schedule of Assessments 1 | ||
through 13 of this Act for all sentenced violations in a case, | ||
that being the schedule applicable to the highest classified | ||
offense violation that is being sentenced, plus any conditional | ||
assessments under Section 15-70 of this Act applicable to any | ||
sentenced violation in the case. | ||

will cause an undue burden on any victim in a case or if the | ||
court orders community service or some other punishment in | ||
place of the applicable schedule of assessments, the court may | ||
reduce the amount set forth in the applicable schedule of | ||
assessments or not order the applicable schedule of | ||
assessments. If the court reduces the amount set forth in the | ||
applicable schedule of assessments, then all recipients of the | ||
funds collected will receive a prorated amount to reflect the |
reduction. | ||

forthwith or within a specified period of time or in | ||
installments. | ||

conditional
discharge, or supervision to which the defendant | ||
was originally sentenced,
the court may extend the period of | ||
probation, conditional discharge, or
supervision under Section | ||
5-6-2 or 5-6-3.1 of the Unified Code of
Corrections, as | ||
applicable, until the assessment is paid or until
successful | ||
completion of public or community service set forth in

completion of the substance abuse
intervention or treatment | ||
program set forth in subsection (c-5) of this Section. | ||

court may suspend the collection of the assessment; provided, | ||
the defendant agrees to enter a substance
abuse intervention or | ||
treatment program approved by the court; and further
provided | ||
that the defendant agrees to pay for all or some portion of the
| ||
costs associated with the intervention or treatment program. In | ||
this case,
the collection of the assessment shall be
suspended | ||
during the defendant's participation in the approved
| ||
intervention or treatment program. Upon successful
completion | ||

| ||
the assessment imposed under this Section by any amount |
actually paid

the program. The court shall not
reduce the assessment under | ||
this subsection unless the defendant
establishes to the | ||
satisfaction of the court that he or she has successfully
| ||
completed the intervention or treatment program. If the | ||
defendant's
participation is for any reason terminated before | ||
his or her successful completion
of the intervention or | ||
treatment program, collection of the entire
assessment imposed | ||
under this Act shall be enforced. Nothing in this
Section shall | ||
be deemed to affect or suspend any other fines, restitution
| ||
costs, forfeitures, or assessments imposed under this or any | ||
other Act. | ||
(d) Except as provided in Section 5-15 of this Act, the | ||
defendant shall pay to the clerk of the court and the clerk | ||
shall remit the assessment to the appropriate entity as set | ||
forth in the ordered schedule of assessments within one month | ||
of its receipt. | ||
(e) Unless a court ordered payment schedule is implemented | ||
or the assessment
requirements of this Act are waived under a | ||
court order, the clerk of
the circuit court may add to any | ||
unpaid assessments under this Act a delinquency
amount equal to | ||
5% of the unpaid assessments that remain unpaid after 30 days, | ||
10% of
the unpaid assessments that remain unpaid after 60 days, | ||

as otherwise provided, for all felonies: | ||
(a) NO SUPERVISION. The court, upon a plea of guilty or a | ||
stipulation by the defendant of the facts supporting the charge | ||
or a finding of guilt, may not defer further proceedings and | ||
the imposition of a sentence and may not enter an order for | ||
supervision of the defendant. | ||
(b) FELONY FINES. An offender may be sentenced to pay a | ||
fine not to exceed, for each offense, $25,000 or the amount | ||
specified in the offense, whichever is greater, or if the | ||
offender is a corporation, $50,000 or the amount specified in | ||
the offense, whichever is greater. A fine may be imposed in | ||
addition to a sentence of conditional discharge, probation, | ||
periodic imprisonment, or imprisonment. See Article 9 of | ||
Chapter V (730 ILCS 5/Ch. V, Art. 9) for imposition of | ||
additional amounts and determination of amounts and payment. | ||
(c) REASONS FOR SENTENCE STATED. The sentencing judge in | ||
each felony conviction shall set forth his or her reasons for | ||
imposing the particular sentence entered in the case, as | ||
provided in Section 5-4-1 (730 ILCS 5/5-4-1). Those reasons may | ||
include any mitigating or aggravating factors specified in this | ||
Code, or the lack of any such factors, as well as any other | ||
mitigating or aggravating factors that the judge sets forth on | ||
the record that are consistent with the purposes and principles | ||
of sentencing set out in this Code. |
(d) MOTION TO REDUCE SENTENCE. A motion to reduce a | ||
sentence may be made, or the court may reduce a sentence | ||
without motion, within 30 days after the sentence is imposed. A | ||
defendant's challenge to the correctness of a sentence or to | ||
any aspect of the sentencing hearing shall be made by a written | ||
motion filed with the circuit court clerk within 30 days | ||
following the imposition of sentence. A motion not filed within | ||
that 30-day period is not timely. The court may not increase a | ||
sentence once it is imposed. A notice of motion must be filed | ||
with the motion. The notice of motion shall set the motion on | ||
the court's calendar on a date certain within a reasonable time | ||
after the date of filing. | ||
If a motion filed pursuant to this subsection is timely | ||
filed, the proponent of the motion shall exercise due diligence | ||
in seeking a determination on the motion and the court shall | ||
thereafter decide the motion within a reasonable time. | ||
If a motion filed pursuant to this subsection is timely | ||
filed, then for purposes of perfecting an appeal, a final | ||
judgment is not considered to have been entered until the | ||
motion to reduce the sentence has been decided by order entered | ||
by the trial court. | ||
(e) CONCURRENT SENTENCE; PREVIOUS UNEXPIRED FEDERAL OR | ||
OTHER-STATE SENTENCE. A defendant who has a previous and | ||
unexpired sentence of imprisonment imposed by another state or | ||

sentence for a crime in Illinois, must return to serve the |
unexpired prior sentence may have his or her sentence by the | ||
Illinois court ordered to be concurrent with the prior | ||
other-state or federal sentence. The court may order that any | ||
time served on the unexpired portion of the other-state or | ||
federal sentence, prior to his or her return to Illinois, shall | ||
be credited on his or her Illinois sentence. The appropriate | ||
official of the other state or the United States shall be | ||
furnished with a copy of the order imposing sentence, which | ||
shall provide that, when the offender is released from | ||
other-state or federal confinement, whether by parole or by | ||
termination of sentence, the offender shall be transferred by | ||
the Sheriff of the committing Illinois county to the Illinois | ||
Department of Corrections. The court shall cause the Department | ||
of Corrections to be notified of the sentence at the time of | ||
commitment and to be provided with copies of all records | ||
regarding the sentence. | ||
(f) REDUCTION; PREVIOUS UNEXPIRED ILLINOIS SENTENCE. A | ||
defendant who has a previous and unexpired sentence of | ||
imprisonment imposed by an Illinois circuit court for a crime | ||
in this State and who is subsequently sentenced to a term of | ||
imprisonment by another state or by any district court of the | ||
United States and who has served a term of imprisonment imposed | ||
by the other state or district court of the United States, and | ||
must return to serve the unexpired prior sentence imposed by | ||
the Illinois circuit court, may apply to the Illinois circuit | ||
court that imposed sentence to have his or her sentence |
reduced. | ||
The circuit court may order that any time served on the | ||
sentence imposed by the other state or district court of the | ||
United States be credited on his or her Illinois sentence. The | ||
application for reduction of a sentence under this subsection | ||
shall be made within 30 days after the defendant has completed | ||
the sentence imposed by the other state or district court of | ||
the United States.
| ||

sentence or disposition that requires the defendant to be | ||
implanted or injected with or to use any form of birth control.

each felony conviction shall set forth his or her reasons for | ||
imposing the particular sentence entered in the case, as | ||
provided in Section 5-4-1 (730 ILCS 5/5-4-1). Those reasons may | ||

they may ask the court for permission to sue or defend a civil
| ||
action without payment of fees, costs, and charges. The notice | ||
shall be
substantially as follows:
| ||
"If you are unable to pay the fees, costs, and charges | ||
of an action you may
ask the court to allow you to proceed | ||
without paying them. Ask the clerk of
the court for forms."
| ||
(d) (Blank).
| ||
(e) The clerk of the court shall not refuse to accept and | ||
file any
complaint,
appearance, or other paper presented by the | ||
applicant if accompanied by an
application for waiver of court | ||
fees, costs, and charges, and those papers shall be
considered | ||
filed on the date the application is presented. If the | ||
application
is denied or a partial fees, costs, and charges | ||
waiver is granted, the order shall state a date certain by | ||
which the necessary fees,
costs, and charges must be paid. For | ||
good cause shown, the court may allow an
applicant who receives | ||
a partial fees, costs, and charges waiver to defer payment of | ||
fees, costs, and
charges, make installment payments, or make | ||
payment upon reasonable terms and
conditions stated in the | ||
order. The court may dismiss the claims or strike the defenses | ||
of
any party failing to pay the fees, costs, and charges within | ||
the time and in the
manner ordered by the court. A judicial | ||
ruling on an application for waiver of court assessments does | ||
not constitute a decision of a substantial issue in the case | ||
under Section 2-1001 of this Code.
|
(f) The order granting a full or partial fees, costs, and | ||
charges waiver shall expire after one year. Upon expiration of | ||
the waiver, or a reasonable period of time before expiration, | ||
the party whose fees, costs, and charges were waived may file | ||
another application for waiver and the court shall consider the | ||
application in accordance with the applicable Supreme Court | ||
Rule.
| ||
(f-5) If, before or at the time of final disposition of the | ||
case, the court obtains information, including information | ||
from the court file, suggesting that a person whose fees, | ||
costs, and charges were initially waived was not entitled to a | ||
full or partial waiver at the time of application, the court | ||
may require the person to appear at a court hearing by giving | ||
the applicant no less than 10 days' written notice of the | ||
hearing and the specific reasons why the initial waiver might | ||
be reconsidered. The court may require the applicant to provide | ||
reasonably available evidence, including financial | ||
information, to support his or her eligibility for the waiver, | ||
but the court shall not require submission of information that | ||
is unrelated to the criteria for eligibility and application | ||
requirements set forth in subdivision subdivisions (b)(1) or | ||
(b)(2) of this Section. If the court finds that the person was | ||
not initially entitled to any waiver, the person shall pay all | ||
fees, costs, and charges relating to the civil action, | ||
including any previously waived previously-waived fees, costs, | ||
and charges. The order may state terms of payment in accordance |
with subsection (e). The court shall not conduct a hearing | ||
under this subsection more often than once every 6 months. | ||
(f-10) If, before or at the time of final disposition of | ||
the case, the court obtains information, including information | ||
from the court file, suggesting that a person who received a | ||
full or partial waiver has experienced a change in financial | ||
condition so that he or she is no longer eligible for that | ||
waiver, the court may require the person to appear at a court | ||
hearing by giving the applicant no less than 10 days' written | ||
notice of the hearing and the specific reasons why the waiver | ||
might be reconsidered. The court may require the person to | ||
provide reasonably available evidence, including financial | ||
information, to support his or her continued eligibility for | ||
the waiver, but shall not require submission of information | ||
that is unrelated to the criteria for eligibility and | ||
application requirements set forth in subdivisions subsections | ||
(b)(1) and (b)(2) of this Section. If the court enters an order | ||
finding that the person is no longer entitled to a waiver, or | ||
is entitled to a partial waiver different than that which the | ||
person had previously received, the person shall pay the | ||
requisite fees, costs, and charges from the date of the order | ||
going forward. The order may state terms of payment in | ||
accordance with subsection (e) of this Section. The court shall | ||
not conduct a hearing under this subsection more often than | ||
once every 6 months. | ||
(g) A court, in its discretion, may appoint counsel to |
represent an indigent
person, and that counsel shall perform | ||
his or her duties without fees, charges,
or reward.
| ||
(h) Nothing in this Section shall be construed to affect | ||
the right of a
party to sue or defend an action in forma | ||
pauperis without the payment of fees,
costs, charges, or the | ||
right of a party to court-appointed counsel, as
authorized by | ||
any other provision of law or by the rules of the Illinois
| ||
Supreme Court. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to | ||
limit the authority of a court to order another party to the | ||
action to pay the fees, costs, and charges of the action.
| ||
(h-5) If a party is represented by a civil legal services | ||
provider or an attorney in a court-sponsored pro bono program | ||
as defined in Section 5-105.5 of this Code, the attorney | ||
representing that party shall file a certification with the | ||
court in accordance with Supreme Court Rule 298 and that party | ||
shall be allowed to sue or defend without payment of fees, | ||
costs, and charges without filing an application under this | ||
Section. | ||
(h-10) If an attorney files an appearance on behalf of a | ||
person whose fees, costs, and charges were initially waived | ||
under this Section, the attorney must pay all fees, costs, and | ||
charges relating to the civil action, including any previously | ||
waived fees, costs, and charges, unless the attorney is either | ||
a civil legal services provider, representing his or her client | ||
as part of a court-sponsored pro bono program as defined in | ||
Section 5-105.1 of this Code, or appearing under a limited |
scope appearance in accordance with Supreme Court Rule | ||
13(c)(6). | ||
(i) The provisions of this Section are severable under | ||
Section 1.31 of the
Statute on Statutes.
