(730 ILCS 150/3-5) Sec. 3-5. Application of Act to adjudicated juvenile delinquents. (a) In all cases involving an adjudicated juvenile
delinquent who meets the definition of sex offender as set
forth in paragraph (5) of subsection (A) of Section 2 of this
Act, the court shall order the minor to register as a sex offender. (b) Once an adjudicated juvenile delinquent is ordered to
register as a sex offender, the adjudicated juvenile delinquent
shall be subject to the registration requirements set forth in
Sections 3, 6, 6-5, 8, 8-5, and 10 for the term of his or her
registration. (c) For a minor adjudicated delinquent for an offense which, if charged as an adult, would be a felony, no less than 5 years after registration ordered pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section, the minor may petition for the termination of the term of registration. For a minor adjudicated delinquent for an offense which, if charged as an adult, would be a misdemeanor, no less than 2 years after registration ordered pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section, the minor may petition for termination of the term of registration. (d) The court may upon a hearing on the petition for termination of registration, terminate registration if the court finds that the registrant poses no risk to the community by a preponderance of the evidence based upon the factors set forth in subsection (e). Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act to the contrary, no registrant whose registration has been terminated under this Section shall be required to register under the provisions of this Act for the offense or offenses which were the subject of the successful petition for termination of registration. This exemption shall apply only to those offenses which were the subject of the successful petition for termination of registration, and shall not apply to any other or subsequent offenses requiring registration under this Act.

to the community as required by subsection (d), the court shall

|
|

|
| delinquent's mental, physical, educational, and social history;

(7) any other factors deemed relevant by the court.
(f) At the hearing set forth in subsections (c) and (d), a
registrant shall be represented by counsel and may present a
risk assessment conducted by an evaluator who is licensed under the Sex Offender Evaluation and Treatment Provider Act.
(g) After a registrant completes the term of his or her
registration, his or her name, address, and all other
identifying information shall be removed from all State and
local registries.

Status, the clerk of the court shall provide notice to the
