12 | | established by the Department. The Director may allow a |
13 | | prisoner placed on
a waiting list to participate in and |
14 | | complete a substance abuse education class or attend |
15 | | substance
abuse self-help meetings in lieu of a substance |

17 | | is not placed in a substance abuse program prior to release |
18 | | may be eligible for a waiver and receive good conduct |
19 | | credit under clause (3) of this subsection (a) at the |
20 | | discretion of the Director.
|
21 | | (4.6) The rules and regulations on early release shall |
22 | | also provide that a prisoner who has been convicted of a |
23 | | sex offense as defined in Section 2 of the Sex Offender |
24 | | Registration Act shall receive no good conduct credit |
25 | | unless he or she either has successfully completed or is |
26 | | participating in sex offender treatment as defined by the |
|
| | SB1338 | - 15 - | LRB097 07075 RLC 47168 b |
|
|
1 | | Sex Offender Management Board. However, prisoners who are |
2 | | waiting to receive such treatment, but who are unable to do |
3 | | so due solely to the lack of resources on the part of the |
4 | | Department, may, at the Director's sole discretion, be |
5 | | awarded good conduct credit at such rate as the Director |
6 | | shall determine.
|
7 | | (5) Whenever the Department is to release any inmate |
8 | | earlier than it
otherwise would because of a grant of good |
9 | | conduct credit for meritorious
service given at any time |
10 | | during the term, the Department shall give
reasonable |
11 | | notice of the impending release not less than 14 days prior |
12 | | to the date of the release to the Governor, the sheriff of |
13 | | the county where the prosecution of the inmate took place, |
14 | | the State's
Attorney of the county where the prosecution of |
15 | | the inmate took place, and if applicable, the State's |
16 | | Attorney of the county into which the inmate will be |
17 | | released. The Department must also make identification |
18 | | information and a recent photo of the inmate being released |
19 | | accessible on the Internet by means of a hyperlink labeled |
20 | | "Community Notification of Inmate Early Release" on the |
21 | | Department's World Wide Web homepage.
The identification |
22 | | information shall include the inmate's: name, any known |
23 | | alias, date of birth, physical characteristics, residence |
24 | | address, commitment offense and county where conviction |
25 | | was imposed. The identification information shall be |
26 | | placed on the website within 3 days of the inmate's release |
|
| | SB1338 | - 16 - | LRB097 07075 RLC 47168 b |
|
|
1 | | and the information may not be removed until either: |
2 | | completion of the first year of mandatory supervised |
3 | | release or return of the inmate to custody of the |
4 | | Department.
|
5 | | (b) Whenever a person is or has been committed under
|
6 | | several convictions, with separate sentences, the sentences
|
7 | | shall be construed under Section 5-8-4 in granting and
|
8 | | forfeiting of good time.
|
9 | | (c) The Department shall prescribe rules and regulations
|
10 | | for revoking good conduct credit, or suspending or reducing
the |
11 | | rate of accumulation of good conduct credit for specific
rule |
12 | | violations, during imprisonment. These rules and regulations
|
13 | | shall provide that no inmate may be penalized more than one
|
14 | | year of good conduct credit for any one infraction.
|
15 | | When the Department seeks to revoke, suspend or reduce
the |
16 | | rate of accumulation of any good conduct credits for
an alleged |
17 | | infraction of its rules, it shall bring charges
therefor |
18 | | against the prisoner sought to be so deprived of
good conduct |
19 | | credits before the Prisoner Review Board as
provided in |
20 | | subparagraph (a)(4) of Section 3-3-2 of this
Code, if the |
21 | | amount of credit at issue exceeds 30 days or
when during any 12 |
22 | | month period, the cumulative amount of
credit revoked exceeds |
23 | | 30 days except where the infraction is committed
or discovered |
24 | | within 60 days of scheduled release. In those cases,
the |
25 | | Department of Corrections may revoke up to 30 days of good |
26 | | conduct credit.
The Board may subsequently approve the |
|
| | SB1338 | - 17 - | LRB097 07075 RLC 47168 b |
|
|
1 | | revocation of additional good
conduct credit, if the Department |
2 | | seeks to revoke good conduct credit in
excess of 30 days. |
3 | | However, the Board shall not be empowered to review the
|
4 | | Department's decision with respect to the loss of 30 days of |
5 | | good conduct
credit within any calendar year for any prisoner |
6 | | or to increase any penalty
beyond the length requested by the |
7 | | Department.
|
8 | | The Director of the Department of Corrections, in |
9 | | appropriate cases, may
restore up to 30 days good conduct |
10 | | credits which have been revoked, suspended
or reduced. Any |
11 | | restoration of good conduct credits in excess of 30 days shall
|
12 | | be subject to review by the Prisoner Review Board. However, the |
13 | | Board may not
restore good conduct credit in excess of the |
14 | | amount requested by the Director.
|
15 | | Nothing contained in this Section shall prohibit the |
16 | | Prisoner Review Board
from ordering, pursuant to Section |
17 | | 3-3-9(a)(3)(i)(B), that a prisoner serve up
to one year of the |
18 | | sentence imposed by the court that was not served due to the
|
19 | | accumulation of good conduct credit.
|
20 | | (d) If a lawsuit is filed by a prisoner in an Illinois or |
21 | | federal court
against the State, the Department of Corrections, |
22 | | or the Prisoner Review Board,
or against any of
their officers |
23 | | or employees, and the court makes a specific finding that a
|
24 | | pleading, motion, or other paper filed by the prisoner is |
25 | | frivolous, the
Department of Corrections shall conduct a |
26 | | hearing to revoke up to
180 days of good conduct credit by |
|
| | SB1338 | - 18 - | LRB097 07075 RLC 47168 b |
|
|
1 | | bringing charges against the prisoner
sought to be deprived of |
2 | | the good conduct credits before the Prisoner Review
Board as |
3 | | provided in subparagraph (a)(8) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code.
|
4 | | If the prisoner has not accumulated 180 days of good conduct |
5 | | credit at the
time of the finding, then the Prisoner Review |
6 | | Board may revoke all
good conduct credit accumulated by the |
7 | | prisoner.
|

|
9 | | (1) "Frivolous" means that a pleading, motion, or other |

|
13 | | (A) it lacks an arguable basis either in law or in |
14 | | fact;

17 | | needless increase in the cost of litigation;
|
18 | | (C) the claims, defenses, and other legal |
19 | | contentions therein are not
warranted by existing law |
20 | | or by a nonfrivolous argument for the extension,
|
21 | | modification, or reversal of existing law or the |
22 | | establishment of new law;
|
23 | | (D) the allegations and other factual contentions |
24 | | do not have
evidentiary
support or, if specifically so |
25 | | identified, are not likely to have evidentiary
support |
26 | | after a reasonable opportunity for further |
|
| | SB1338 | - 19 - | LRB097 07075 RLC 47168 b |
|
|
1 | | investigation or discovery;
or
|
2 | | (E) the denials of factual contentions are not |
3 | | warranted on the

4 | | identified, are not reasonably based on a lack
of |
5 | | information or belief.
|
6 | | (2) "Lawsuit" means a motion pursuant to Section
116-3 |
7 | | of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963, a habeas corpus |

16 | | 2-1401 of the Code of Civil Procedure.

17 | | (e) Nothing in Public Act 90-592 or 90-593 affects the |
18 | | validity of Public Act 89-404.
|
19 | | (f) Whenever the Department is to release any inmate who |
20 | | has been convicted of a violation of an order of protection |
21 | | under Section 12-30 of the Criminal Code of 1961, earlier than |
22 | | it
otherwise would because of a grant of good conduct credit, |
23 | | the Department, as a condition of such early release, shall |
24 | | require that the person, upon release, be placed under |
25 | | electronic surveillance as provided in Section 5-8A-7 of this |

|
14 | | (d) Upon the release of a committed person on parole, |
15 | | mandatory
supervised release, final discharge or pardon, the |
16 | | Department shall provide
such person with information |
17 | | concerning programs and services of the
Illinois Department of |
18 | | Public Health to ascertain whether such person has
been exposed |
19 | | to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or any identified
|
20 | | causative agent of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS).
|
21 | | (e) Upon the release of a committed person on parole, |

card |
25 | | identifying the
person as being on parole, mandatory supervised |

|
| | SB1338 | - 24 - | LRB097 07075 RLC 47168 b |
|
|
1 | | Department, in consultation with the Office of
the Secretary of |
2 | | State, shall prescribe the form of the identification card,

pay a $1 fee for the identification |
10 | | card.

11 | | For purposes of a committed person
receiving an |
12 | | identification card issued by the Department under this
|
13 | | subsection, the Department shall establish criteria that the
|
14 | | committed person must meet before the card is issued.
It is the |
15 | | sole responsibility of the
committed person requesting the |
16 | | identification card issued by the Department to
meet the |
17 | | established criteria.
The person's failure to
meet the criteria |
18 | | is sufficient reason to deny the committed person the
|
19 | | identification card. An identification card issued by the |
20 | | Department under
this subsection shall be valid for a period of |
21 | | time not to exceed 30 calendar
days from the date the card is |
22 | | issued.
The Department shall not be held civilly or

rules governing the issuance of |
26 | | identification cards to committed persons being
