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 |

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. |

the |
assessment is not paid within the period of probation, |

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

subsection (b) of Section 5-20 of this Act or the successful |
completion of the substance abuse

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 |
of the program, the defendant may apply to the court to reduce
|
the assessment imposed under this Section by any amount |
|
actually paid
by the defendant for his or her participation in |
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, |
and 15% of the unpaid assessments

|

(730 ILCS 5/5-4.5-50) |
|
(Text of Section before amendment by P.A. 100-987 ) |
Sec. 5-4.5-50. SENTENCE PROVISIONS; ALL FELONIES. Except |
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 |
by any district court of the United States and who, after |
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. |

Sec. 5-4.5-50. SENTENCE PROVISIONS; ALL FELONIES. Except |
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. Unless otherwise specified by law, the |
minimum fine is $75 $25 . 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. If |
the court finds that the fine would impose an undue burden on |
the victim, the court may reduce or waive the fine. |
(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 |
by any district court of the United States and who, after |
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.
|
(g) NO REQUIRED BIRTH CONTROL. A court may not impose a |

otherwise provided, for a business offense: |
(a) FINE. A defendant may be sentenced to pay a fine not to |
exceed for each offense the amount specified in the statute |
defining that offense. A fine may be imposed in addition to a |
sentence of conditional discharge. See Article 9 of Chapter V |
(730 ILCS 5/Ch. V, Art. 9) for imposition of additional amounts |
and determination of amounts and payment. |
(b) CONDITIONAL DISCHARGE. A defendant may be sentenced to |
a period of conditional discharge. The court shall specify the |
conditions of conditional discharge as set forth in Section |

supervision of the defendant. If the defendant is not barred |
from receiving an order for supervision under Section 5-6-1 |
(730 ILCS 5/5-6-1) or otherwise, the court may enter an order |
for supervision after considering the circumstances of the |
offense, and the history, character, and condition of the |
offender, if the court is of the opinion that: |
(1) the defendant is not likely to commit further |
crimes; |
(2) the defendant and the public would be best served |
if the defendant were not to receive a criminal record; and |
(3) in the best interests of justice, an order of |
supervision is more appropriate than a sentence otherwise |
permitted under this Code.
|
(e) SUPERVISION; PERIOD. When a defendant is placed on |
supervision, the court shall enter an order for supervision |
specifying the period of supervision, and shall defer further |
proceedings in the case until the conclusion of the period. The |

circumstances of the case, and except as otherwise provided, |
may not be longer than 2 years. The court shall specify the |
conditions of supervision as set forth in Section 5-6-3.1 (730 |

(c) An application for waiver of court fees, costs, and |

the
applicant is a minor or an incompetent adult, by another
|
person having knowledge of the facts. The contents of the |
application for waiver of court fees, costs, and charges, and |
the procedure for the decision of the applications, shall be
|
established by Supreme Court Rule. Factors to consider in |
evaluating an application shall include: |
(1) the applicant's receipt of needs based |
governmental public benefits, including Supplemental |
Security Income (SSI); Aid to the Aged, Blind and Disabled |
(ADBD); Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF); |

(c-5) The court shall provide, through the
office of the |
clerk of the court, the application for waiver of court fees, |
costs, and charges to any person
seeking to sue or defend an |
action who indicates an inability to pay the fees,
costs, and |
charges of the action. The clerk of the court shall post in
a |
conspicuous place in the courthouse a notice no smaller than |
8.5 x 11 inches,
using no smaller than 30-point typeface |
|
printed in English and in Spanish,
advising
the public that |
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.
