(g) Re-enactment; findings; purposes. | ||
(1) The General Assembly finds and declares that: | ||
(i) Section 50-5 of Public Act 88-680, effective | ||
January 1, 1995, contained provisions amending the | ||
child pornography statute, Section 11-20.1 of the | ||
Criminal Code of 1961. Section 50-5 also contained | ||
other provisions. | ||
(ii) In addition, Public Act 88-680 was entitled | ||
"AN ACT to create a Safe Neighborhoods Law". (A) | ||
Article 5 was entitled JUVENILE JUSTICE and amended | ||
the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. (B) Article 15 was | ||
entitled GANGS and amended various provisions of the | ||
Criminal Code of 1961 and the Unified Code of | ||
Corrections. (C) Article 20 was entitled ALCOHOL ABUSE | ||
and amended various provisions of the Illinois Vehicle | ||
Code. (D) Article 25 was entitled DRUG ABUSE and | ||
amended the Cannabis Control Act and the Illinois | ||
Controlled Substances Act. (E) Article 30 was entitled | ||
FIREARMS and amended the Criminal Code of 1961 and the |
Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963. (F) Article 35 | ||
amended the Criminal Code of 1961, the Rights of Crime | ||
Victims and Witnesses Act, and the Unified Code of | ||
Corrections. (G) Article 40 amended the Criminal Code | ||
of 1961 to increase the penalty for compelling | ||
organization membership of persons. (H) Article 45 | ||
created the Secure Residential Youth Care Facility | ||
Licensing Act and amended the State Finance Act, the | ||
Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Unified Code of | ||
Corrections, and the Private Correctional Facility | ||
Moratorium Act. (I) Article 50 amended the WIC Vendor | ||
Management Act, the Firearm Owners Identification Card | ||
Act, the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Criminal Code | ||
of 1961, the Wrongs to Children Act, and the Unified | ||
Code of Corrections. | ||
(iii) On September 22, 1998, the Third District | ||
Appellate Court in People v. Dainty, 701 N.E. 2d 118, | ||
ruled that Public Act 88-680 violates the single | ||
subject clause of the Illinois Constitution (Article | ||
IV, Section 8 (d)) and was unconstitutional in its | ||
entirety. As of the time this amendatory Act of 1999 | ||
was prepared, People v. Dainty was still subject to | ||
appeal. | ||
(iv) Child pornography is a vital concern to the | ||
people of this State and the validity of future | ||
prosecutions under the child pornography statute of |
the Criminal Code of 1961 is in grave doubt. | ||
(2) It is the purpose of this amendatory Act of 1999 to | ||
prevent or minimize any problems relating to prosecutions | ||
for child pornography that may result from challenges to | ||
the constitutional validity of Public Act 88-680 by | ||
re-enacting the Section relating to child pornography that | ||
was included in Public Act 88-680. | ||
(3) This amendatory Act of 1999 re-enacts Section | ||
11-20.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961, as it has been | ||
amended. This re-enactment is intended to remove any | ||
question as to the validity or content of that Section; it | ||
is not intended to supersede any other Public Act that | ||
amends the text of the Section as set forth in this | ||
amendatory Act of 1999. The material is shown as existing | ||
text (i.e., without underscoring) because, as of the time | ||
this amendatory Act of 1999 was prepared, People v. Dainty | ||
was subject to appeal to the Illinois Supreme Court. | ||
(4) The re-enactment by this amendatory Act of 1999 of | ||
Section 11-20.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961 relating to | ||
child pornography that was amended by Public Act 88-680 is | ||
not intended, and shall not be construed, to imply that | ||
Public Act 88-680 is invalid or to limit or impair any | ||
legal argument concerning whether those provisions were | ||
substantially re-enacted by other Public Acts. | ||

for which the person shall be sentenced to a term of | ||
imprisonment of not less than 9 years. | ||

liability upon the following entities solely as a result of | ||
content or information provided by another person: | ||
(1) an interactive computer service, as defined in 47 | ||
U.S.C. 230(f)(2); | ||

the sports official or coach occurred within an athletic | ||
facility or within the immediate vicinity of the athletic | ||
facility at which the sports official or coach was an active | ||

the rules of the contest, such as an umpire or referee; | ||
"athletic facility" means an indoor or outdoor playing field | ||
or recreational area where sports activities are conducted; | ||

(13) A person convicted of or placed on court supervision | ||
for an assault or aggravated assault when the victim and the |
offender are family or household members as defined in Section | ||
103 of the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986 or convicted | ||

trial court shall hold a hearing under Section 5-4-1 of this | ||
Code which may include evidence of the defendant's life, moral | ||
character and occupation during the time since the original | ||
sentence was passed. The trial court shall then impose | ||
sentence upon the defendant. The trial court may impose any | ||
sentence which could have been imposed at the original trial | ||
subject to Section 5-5-4 of this Code. If a sentence is vacated | ||
on appeal or on collateral attack due to the failure of the | ||
trier of fact at trial to determine beyond a reasonable doubt | ||
the existence of a fact (other than a prior conviction) | ||
necessary to increase the punishment for the offense beyond | ||
the statutory maximum otherwise applicable, either the | ||
defendant may be re-sentenced to a term within the range | ||
otherwise provided or, if the State files notice of its | ||
intention to again seek the extended sentence, the defendant | ||
shall be afforded a new trial. | ||
(e) In cases where prosecution for aggravated criminal |
sexual abuse under Section 11-1.60 or 12-16 of the Criminal | ||
Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 results in conviction | ||

time of the commission of the offense, the court shall | ||
consider the safety and welfare of the victim and may impose a | ||
sentence of probation only where: | ||
(1) the court finds (A) or (B) or both are | ||
appropriate: | ||
(A) the defendant is willing to undergo a court | ||
approved counseling program for a minimum duration of | ||
2 years; or | ||
(B) the defendant is willing to participate in a | ||
court approved plan, including, but not limited to, | ||
the defendant's: | ||
(i) removal from the household; | ||
(ii) restricted contact with the victim; | ||
(iii) continued financial support of the | ||
family; | ||
(iv) restitution for harm done to the victim; | ||
and | ||
(v) compliance with any other measures that | ||
the court may deem appropriate; and | ||
(2) the court orders the defendant to pay for the | ||
victim's counseling services, to the extent that the court | ||
finds, after considering the defendant's income and | ||
assets, that the defendant is financially capable of |
paying for such services, if the victim was under 18 years | ||
of age at the time the offense was committed and requires | ||
counseling as a result of the offense. | ||
Probation may be revoked or modified pursuant to Section | ||
5-6-4; except where the court determines at the hearing that | ||
the defendant violated a condition of his or her probation | ||
restricting contact with the victim or other family members or | ||
commits another offense with the victim or other family | ||
members, the court shall revoke the defendant's probation and | ||
impose a term of imprisonment. | ||
For the purposes of this Section, "family member" and | ||
"victim" shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Section | ||
11-0.1 of the Criminal Code of 2012. | ||

testing to determine whether the defendant has any sexually | ||
transmissible disease, including a test for infection with | ||
human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or any other identified | ||
causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). | ||
Any such medical test shall be performed only by appropriately |
licensed medical practitioners and may include an analysis of | ||
any bodily fluids as well as an examination of the defendant's | ||
person. Except as otherwise provided by law, the results of | ||
such test shall be kept strictly confidential by all medical | ||
personnel involved in the testing and must be personally | ||
delivered in a sealed envelope to the judge of the court in | ||
which the conviction was entered for the judge's inspection in | ||
camera. Acting in accordance with the best interests of the | ||
victim and the public, the judge shall have the discretion to | ||
determine to whom, if anyone, the results of the testing may be | ||
revealed. The court shall notify the defendant of the test | ||
results. The court shall also notify the victim if requested | ||
by the victim, and if the victim is under the age of 15 and if | ||

communicable disease, as determined by the Illinois Department | ||

the results of the test shall be personally delivered by the | ||
warden or his or her designee in a sealed envelope to the judge | ||
of the court in which the inmate must appear for the judge's | ||
inspection in camera if requested by the judge. Acting in | ||
accordance with the best interests of those in the courtroom, | ||
the judge shall have the discretion to determine what if any | ||
precautions need to be taken to prevent transmission of the | ||
disease in the courtroom. | ||
(h) Whenever a defendant is convicted of an offense under | ||
Section 1 or 2 of the Hypodermic Syringes and Needles Act, the | ||
defendant shall undergo medical testing to determine whether | ||

(HIV) or any other identified causative agent of acquired | ||
immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Except as otherwise provided | ||
by law, the results of such test shall be kept strictly | ||
confidential by all medical personnel involved in the testing | ||
and must be personally delivered in a sealed envelope to the | ||
judge of the court in which the conviction was entered for the | ||
judge's inspection in camera. Acting in accordance with the | ||
best interests of the public, the judge shall have the | ||
discretion to determine to whom, if anyone, the results of the | ||
testing may be revealed. The court shall notify the defendant | ||
of a positive test showing an infection with the human | ||
immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The court shall provide | ||
information on the availability of HIV testing and counseling | ||
at Department of Public Health facilities to all parties to |

test shall be paid by the county and may be taxed as costs | ||
against the convicted defendant. | ||

any violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois | ||
Vehicle Code, or a similar provision of a local ordinance, and | ||
any violation of the Child Passenger Protection Act, or a | ||
similar provision of a local ordinance, shall be collected and | ||
disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under the Criminal | ||
and Traffic Assessment Act. | ||
(j) In cases when prosecution for any violation of Section | ||
11-1.20, 11-1.30, 11-1.40, 11-1.50, 11-1.60, 11-6, 11-8, 11-9, | ||

granted under Section 10 of the Cannabis Control Act, Section | ||
410 of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or Section 70 | ||
of the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act of |
a defendant, the court shall determine whether the defendant | ||
is employed by a facility or center as defined under the Child | ||
Care Act of 1969, a public or private elementary or secondary | ||
school, or otherwise works with children under 18 years of age | ||
on a daily basis. When a defendant is so employed, the court | ||
shall order the Clerk of the Court to send a copy of the | ||
judgment of conviction or order of supervision or probation to | ||
the defendant's employer by certified mail. If the employer of | ||
the defendant is a school, the Clerk of the Court shall direct | ||
the mailing of a copy of the judgment of conviction or order of | ||
supervision or probation to the appropriate regional | ||
superintendent of schools. The regional superintendent of | ||
schools shall notify the State Board of Education of any | ||

to attend educational courses designed to prepare the | ||
defendant for a high school diploma and to work toward a high | ||
school diploma or to work toward passing high school | ||
equivalency testing or to work toward completing a vocational | ||
training program offered by the Department of Corrections. If | ||
a defendant fails to complete the educational training | ||
required by his or her sentence during the term of |
incarceration, the Prisoner Review Board shall, as a condition | ||
of mandatory supervised release, require the defendant, at his | ||
or her own expense, to pursue a course of study toward a high | ||
school diploma or passage of high school equivalency testing. | ||
The Prisoner Review Board shall revoke the mandatory | ||
supervised release of a defendant who wilfully fails to comply | ||
with this subsection (j-5) upon his or her release from | ||
confinement in a penal institution while serving a mandatory | ||
supervised release term; however, the inability of the | ||
defendant after making a good faith effort to obtain financial | ||
aid or pay for the educational training shall not be deemed a | ||
wilful failure to comply. The Prisoner Review Board shall | ||
recommit the defendant whose mandatory supervised release term | ||
has been revoked under this subsection (j-5) as provided in | ||
Section 3-3-9. This subsection (j-5) does not apply to a | ||
defendant who has a high school diploma or has successfully | ||
passed high school equivalency testing. This subsection (j-5) | ||
does not apply to a defendant who is determined by the court to | ||
be a person with a developmental disability or otherwise | ||
mentally incapable of completing the educational or vocational | ||
program. | ||

(l)(A) Except as provided in paragraph (C) of subsection | ||
(l), whenever a defendant, who is not a citizen or national of | ||
the United States, is convicted of any felony or misdemeanor | ||
offense, the court after sentencing the defendant may, upon |
motion of the State's Attorney, hold sentence in abeyance and | ||
remand the defendant to the custody of the Attorney General of | ||
the United States or his or her designated agent to be deported | ||
when: | ||
(1) a final order of deportation has been issued | ||
against the defendant pursuant to proceedings under the | ||
Immigration and Nationality Act, and | ||
(2) the deportation of the defendant would not | ||
deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct and | ||
would not be inconsistent with the ends of justice. | ||
Otherwise, the defendant shall be sentenced as provided in | ||
this Chapter V. | ||
(B) If the defendant has already been sentenced for a | ||
felony or misdemeanor offense, or has been placed on probation | ||
under Section 10 of the Cannabis Control Act, Section 410 of | ||
the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or Section 70 of the | ||
Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act, the | ||
court may, upon motion of the State's Attorney to suspend the | ||
sentence imposed, commit the defendant to the custody of the | ||
Attorney General of the United States or his or her designated | ||
agent when: | ||
(1) a final order of deportation has been issued | ||
against the defendant pursuant to proceedings under the | ||
Immigration and Nationality Act, and | ||
(2) the deportation of the defendant would not | ||
deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct and |
would not be inconsistent with the ends of justice. | ||
(C) This subsection (l) does not apply to offenders who | ||
are subject to the provisions of paragraph (2) of subsection | ||
(a) of Section 3-6-3. | ||
(D) Upon motion of the State's Attorney, if a defendant | ||
sentenced under this Section returns to the jurisdiction of | ||
the United States, the defendant shall be recommitted to the | ||
custody of the county from which he or she was sentenced. | ||
Thereafter, the defendant shall be brought before the | ||
sentencing court, which may impose any sentence that was | ||
available under Section 5-5-3 at the time of initial | ||
sentencing. In addition, the defendant shall not be eligible | ||

Sec. 5-8-4. Concurrent and consecutive terms of | ||
imprisonment. | ||
(a) Concurrent terms; multiple or additional sentences. | ||
When an Illinois court (i) imposes multiple sentences of | ||
imprisonment on a defendant at the same time or (ii) imposes a | ||
sentence of imprisonment on a defendant who is already subject | ||
to a sentence of imprisonment imposed by an Illinois court, a | ||
court of another state, or a federal court, then the sentences | ||
shall run concurrently unless otherwise determined by the | ||
Illinois court under this Section. | ||
(b) Concurrent terms; misdemeanor and felony. A defendant | ||
serving a sentence for a misdemeanor who is convicted of a | ||
felony and sentenced to imprisonment shall be transferred to |
the Department of Corrections, and the misdemeanor sentence | ||
shall be merged in and run concurrently with the felony | ||
sentence. | ||
(c) Consecutive terms; permissive. The court may impose | ||
consecutive sentences in any of the following circumstances: | ||
(1) If, having regard to the nature and circumstances | ||
of the offense and the history and character of the | ||
defendant, it is the opinion of the court that consecutive | ||
sentences are required to protect the public from further | ||
criminal conduct by the defendant, the basis for which the | ||
court shall set forth in the record. | ||
(2) If one of the offenses for which a defendant was | ||
convicted was a violation of Section 32-5.2 (aggravated | ||
false personation of a peace officer) of the Criminal Code | ||
of 1961 (720 ILCS 5/32-5.2) or a violation of subdivision | ||
(b)(5) or (b)(6) of Section 17-2 of the Criminal Code of | ||
1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 (720 ILCS 5/17-2) and the | ||
offense was committed in attempting or committing a | ||
forcible felony. | ||
(3) If a person charged with a felony commits a | ||
separate felony while on pretrial release or in pretrial | ||
detention in a county jail facility or county detention | ||
facility, then the sentences imposed upon conviction of | ||
these felonies may be served consecutively regardless of | ||
the order in which the judgments of conviction are | ||
entered. |
(4) If a person commits a battery against a county | ||
correctional officer or sheriff's employee while serving a | ||
sentence or in pretrial detention in a county jail | ||
facility, then the sentence imposed upon conviction of the | ||
battery may be served consecutively with the sentence | ||
imposed upon conviction of the earlier misdemeanor or | ||
felony, regardless of the order in which the judgments of | ||
conviction are entered. | ||
(5) If a person admitted to pretrial release following | ||
conviction of a felony commits a separate felony while | ||
released pretrial or if a person detained in a county jail | ||
facility or county detention facility following conviction | ||
of a felony commits a separate felony while in detention, | ||
then any sentence following conviction of the separate | ||
felony may be consecutive to that of the original sentence | ||
for which the defendant was released pretrial or detained. | ||
(6) If a person is found to be in possession of an item | ||
of contraband, as defined in Section 31A-0.1 of the | ||
Criminal Code of 2012, while serving a sentence in a | ||
county jail or while in pretrial detention in a county | ||
jail, the sentence imposed upon conviction for the offense | ||
of possessing contraband in a penal institution may be | ||
served consecutively to the sentence imposed for the | ||

(e) Consecutive terms; subsequent non-Illinois term. If an | ||
Illinois court has imposed a sentence of imprisonment on a | ||
defendant and the defendant is subsequently sentenced to a | ||
term of imprisonment by a court of another state or a federal | ||
court, then the Illinois sentence shall run consecutively to | ||
the sentence imposed by the court of the other state or the | ||
federal court. That same Illinois court, however, may order | ||
that the Illinois sentence run concurrently with the sentence | ||
imposed by the court of the other state or the federal court, | ||
but only if the defendant applies to that same Illinois court | ||
within 30 days after the sentence imposed by the court of the |
other state or the federal court is finalized. | ||
(f) Consecutive terms; aggregate maximums and minimums. | ||
The aggregate maximum and aggregate minimum of consecutive | ||
sentences shall be determined as follows: | ||
(1) For sentences imposed under law in effect prior to | ||
February 1, 1978, the aggregate maximum of consecutive | ||
sentences shall not exceed the maximum term authorized | ||
under Section 5-8-1 (730 ILCS 5/5-8-1) or Article 4.5 of | ||
Chapter V for the 2 most serious felonies involved. The | ||
aggregate minimum period of consecutive sentences shall | ||
not exceed the highest minimum term authorized under | ||
Section 5-8-1 (730 ILCS 5/5-8-1) or Article 4.5 of Chapter | ||
V for the 2 most serious felonies involved. When sentenced | ||
only for misdemeanors, a defendant shall not be | ||
consecutively sentenced to more than the maximum for one | ||
Class A misdemeanor. | ||
(2) For sentences imposed under the law in effect on | ||
or after February 1, 1978, the aggregate of consecutive | ||
sentences for offenses that were committed as part of a | ||
single course of conduct during which there was no | ||
substantial change in the nature of the criminal objective | ||
shall not exceed the sum of the maximum terms authorized | ||
under Article 4.5 of Chapter V for the 2 most serious | ||
felonies involved, but no such limitation shall apply for | ||
offenses that were not committed as part of a single | ||
course of conduct during which there was no substantial |
change in the nature of the criminal objective. When | ||
sentenced only for misdemeanors, a defendant shall not be | ||
consecutively sentenced to more than the maximum for one | ||
Class A misdemeanor. | ||
(g) Consecutive terms; manner served. In determining the | ||
manner in which consecutive sentences of imprisonment, one or | ||
more of which is for a felony, will be served, the Department | ||
of Corrections shall treat the defendant as though he or she | ||
had been committed for a single term subject to each of the | ||
following: | ||
(1) The maximum period of a term of imprisonment shall | ||
consist of the aggregate of the maximums of the imposed | ||
indeterminate terms, if any, plus the aggregate of the | ||
imposed determinate sentences for felonies, plus the | ||
aggregate of the imposed determinate sentences for | ||
misdemeanors, subject to subsection (f) of this Section. | ||
(2) The parole or mandatory supervised release term | ||
shall be as provided in paragraph (e) of Section 5-4.5-50 | ||
(730 ILCS 5/5-4.5-50) for the most serious of the offenses | ||
involved. | ||
(3) The minimum period of imprisonment shall be the | ||
aggregate of the minimum and determinate periods of | ||
imprisonment imposed by the court, subject to subsection | ||
(f) of this Section. | ||
(4) The defendant shall be awarded credit against the | ||
aggregate maximum term and the aggregate minimum term of |
imprisonment for all time served in an institution since | ||
the commission of the offense or offenses and as a | ||
consequence thereof at the rate specified in Section 3-6-3 | ||
(730 ILCS 5/3-6-3). | ||
(h) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, | ||
all sentences imposed by an Illinois court under this Code | ||
shall run concurrent to any and all sentences imposed under | ||
the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. | ||
