 1        These charges and all other charges arising  out  of  the

 5        "School"  means  a  public  or  private   elementary   or
 6    secondary school, community college, college, or university.

12    indictment is filed that does not charge an offense specified
13    in paragraph (a) of this subsection (1) the State's  Attorney
14    may  proceed  on  any  lesser  charge or charges, but only in
15    Juvenile Court under the provisions  of  this  Article.   The
16    State's  Attorney may proceed under the Criminal Code of 1961
17    on a lesser  charge  if  before  trial  the  minor  defendant
18    knowingly  and with advice of counsel waives, in writing, his

29    any or all dispositions prescribed  for  that  offense  under
30    Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
31        (ii)  If  after  trial  or  plea the court finds that the
32    minor committed an offense not covered by  paragraph  (a)  of
33    this  subsection  (1),  that finding shall not invalidate the
34    verdict or the prosecution of the minor  under  the  criminal

 1    laws  of  the  State;   however,  unless the State requests a
 2    hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
 3    V of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must  proceed
 4    under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article.  To request a

 9    the  court  shall conduct a hearing to determine if the minor
10    should be sentenced under Chapter V of the  Unified  Code  of
11    Corrections.   In  making  its determination, the court shall
12    consider among other matters: (a) whether there  is  evidence
13    that   the   offense  was  committed  in  an  aggressive  and
14    premeditated manner; (b)  the  age  of  the  minor;  (c)  the

16    facilities particularly available to the  Juvenile  Court  or
17    the  Department  of  Corrections,  Juvenile Division, for the
18    treatment and rehabilitation of the minor;  (e)  whether  the
19    security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
20    the  Unified  Code  of Corrections; and (f) whether the minor
21    possessed a deadly weapon when committing the  offense.   The
22    rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial.  If after
23    the  hearing  the  court  finds  that  the  minor  should  be
24    sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
25    then  the  court  shall sentence the minor accordingly having
26    available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.

12    public housing agency or leased by a public housing agency as
13    part of a scattered site or mixed-income development.  School
14    is defined, for the purposes of this Section, as  any  public
15    or private elementary or secondary school, community college,

22    may proceed on any lesser charge  or  charges,  but  only  in
23    Juvenile  Court  under  the  provisions of this Article.  The
24    State's Attorney may proceed under the criminal laws of  this
25    State  on a lesser charge if before trial the minor defendant
26    knowingly and with advice of counsel waives, in writing,  his
27    or her right to have the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
28        (ii)  If   before   trial   or  plea  an  information  or
29    indictment  is  filed  that  includes  one  or  more  charges
30    specified  in  paragraph  (a)  of  this  subsection  (2)  and
31    additional charges that are not specified in that  paragraph,

 5        (ii)  If after trial or plea the  court  finds  that  the

 7    this subsection (2), that finding shall  not  invalidate  the
 8    verdict  or  the  prosecution of the minor under the criminal
 9    laws of the State;  however,  unless  the  State  requests  a
10    hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
11    V  of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
12    under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article.  To request a
13    hearing, the State must file a written motion within 10  days
14    following  the entry of a finding or the return of a verdict.
15    Reasonable notice of the motion shall be given to  the  minor

17    the court shall conduct a hearing to determine if  the  minor
18    should  be  sentenced  under Chapter V of the Unified Code of
19    Corrections.  In making its determination,  the  court  shall

21    that  the  offense  was  committed  in  an   aggressive   and
22    premeditated  manner;  (b)  the  age  of  the  minor; (c) the
23    previous  history  of  the  minor;  (d)  whether  there   are

25    the Department of Corrections,  Juvenile  Division,  for  the
26    treatment  and  rehabilitation  of the minor; (e) whether the
27    security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
28    the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f)  whether  the  minor

30    rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial.  If after
31    the  hearing  the  court  finds  that  the  minor  should  be
32    sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
33    then the court shall sentence the  minor  accordingly  having
34    available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.

11    school, community college,  college,  or  university.   These
12    charges  and  all  other  charges  arising  out  of  the same
13    incident shall be prosecuted under the criminal laws of  this
14    State.
15        (b) (i)  If  before  trial  or  plea  an  information  or
16    indictment is filed that does not charge an offense specified
17    in  paragraph (a) of this subsection (3) the State's Attorney
18    may proceed on any lesser charge  or  charges,  but  only  in
19    Juvenile  Court  under  the  provisions of this Article.  The
20    State's Attorney may proceed under the criminal laws of  this
21    State  on a lesser charge if before trial the minor defendant
22    knowingly and with advice of counsel waives, in writing,  his
23    or her right to have the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
24        (ii)  If   before   trial   or  plea  an  information  or
25    indictment  is  filed  that  includes  one  or  more  charges
26    specified  in  paragraph  (a)  of  this  subsection  (3)  and
27    additional charges that are not specified in that  paragraph,

 1        (ii)  If after trial or plea the  court  finds  that  the
 2    minor  committed  an  offense not covered by paragraph (a) of
 3    this subsection (3), that finding shall  not  invalidate  the
 4    verdict  or  the  prosecution of the minor under the criminal
 5    laws of the State;  however,  unless  the  State  requests  a
 6    hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
 7    V  of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
 8    under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article.  To request a
 9    hearing, the State must file a written motion within 10  days
10    following  the entry of a finding or the return of a verdict.
11    Reasonable notice of the motion shall be given to  the  minor
12    or  his  or her counsel.  If the motion is made by the State,
13    the court shall conduct a hearing to determine if  the  minor
14    should  be  sentenced  under Chapter V of the Unified Code of
15    Corrections.  In making its determination,  the  court  shall
16    consider  among  other matters: (a) whether there is evidence
17    that  the  offense  was  committed  in  an   aggressive   and
18    premeditated  manner;  (b)  the  age  of  the  minor; (c) the
19    previous  history  of  the  minor;  (d)  whether  there   are
20    facilities  particularly  available  to the Juvenile Court or
21    the Department of Corrections,  Juvenile  Division,  for  the
22    treatment  and  rehabilitation  of the minor; (e) whether the
23    security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
24    the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f)  whether  the  minor
25    possessed  a  deadly weapon when committing the offense.  The
26    rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial.  If after
27    the  hearing  the  court  finds  that  the  minor  should  be
28    sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
29    then the court shall sentence the  minor  accordingly  having
30    available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
31        (4) (a)  The definition of delinquent minor under Section
32    5-120 of this Article shall not apply to any minor who at the
33    time  of  an  offense was at least 13 years of age and who is

                            -8-            LRB9213222RCcdam01
 1    of either aggravated criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual
 2    assault,  or  aggravated kidnaping.  However, this subsection
 3    (4) does not include a minor charged with first degree murder
 4    based exclusively upon the accountability provisions  of  the
 5    Criminal Code of 1961.
 6        (b) (i)  If  before  trial  or  plea  an  information  or
 7    indictment  is filed that does not charge first degree murder
 8    committed during the course  of  aggravated  criminal  sexual
 9    assault,  criminal  sexual  assault, or aggravated kidnaping,
10    the State's Attorney may proceed  on  any  lesser  charge  or
11    charges,  but  only in Juvenile Court under the provisions of
12    this Article.  The State's Attorney  may  proceed  under  the
13    criminal  laws  of  this  State  on a lesser charge if before
14    trial the  minor  defendant  knowingly  and  with  advice  of
15    counsel  waives,  in  writing,  his  or her right to have the
16    matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
17        (ii)  If  before  trial  or  plea   an   information   or
18    indictment   is  filed  that  includes  first  degree  murder
19    committed during the course  of  aggravated  criminal  sexual
20    assault,  criminal  sexual  assault, or aggravated kidnaping,
21    and additional charges that are not  specified  in  paragraph
22    (a) of this subsection, all of the charges arising out of the
23    same  incident shall be prosecuted under the criminal laws of
24    this State.
25        (c) (i)  If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of
26    first degree murder committed during the course of aggravated
27    criminal  sexual  assault,  criminal   sexual   assault,   or
28    aggravated  kidnaping,  in  sentencing  the  minor, the court
29    shall have available any or all dispositions  prescribed  for
30    that  offense  under  Chapter  V   of  the  Unified  Code  of
31    Corrections.
32        (ii)  If  the  minor  was  not yet 15 years of age at the
33    time of the offense, and if after trial  or  plea  the  court
34    finds  that  the  minor committed an offense other than first
 
                            -9-            LRB9213222RCcdam01
 1    degree  murder  committed  during  the   course   of   either
 2    aggravated  criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual assault,
 3    or aggravated kidnapping, the finding  shall  not  invalidate
 4    the  verdict  or  the  prosecution  of  the  minor  under the
 5    criminal  laws  of  the  State;  however,  unless  the  State
 6    requests a hearing for the purpose of  sentencing  the  minor
 7    under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court
 8    must  proceed under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article.
 9    To request a hearing, the State must file  a  written  motion
10    within 10 days following the entry of a finding or the return
11    of a verdict.  Reasonable notice of the motion shall be given
12    to the minor or his or her counsel.  If the motion is made by
13    the  State,  the  court  shall conduct a hearing to determine
14    whether the minor should be sentenced under Chapter V of  the
15    Unified  Code  of  Corrections.  In making its determination,
16    the court shall consider among other  matters:   (a)  whether
17    there  is  evidence  that  the  offense  was  committed in an
18    aggressive and premeditated  manner;   (b)  the  age  of  the
19    minor;   (c)  the  previous  delinquent history of the minor;
20    (d) whether there are facilities  particularly  available  to
21    the Juvenile Court or the Department of Corrections, Juvenile
22    Division,  for the treatment and rehabilitation of the minor;
23    (e) whether the best interest of the minor and  the  security
24    of  the  public  require  sentencing  under  Chapter V of the
25    Unified Code of  Corrections;   and  (f)  whether  the  minor
26    possessed  a  deadly weapon when committing the offense.  The
27    rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial.  If after
28    the  hearing  the  court  finds  that  the  minor  should  be
29    sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
30    then the court shall sentence the  minor  accordingly  having
31    available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
32        (5) (a)  The definition of delinquent minor under Section
33    5-120  of  this  Article  shall not apply to any minor who is
34    charged with a violation of subsection (a) of Section 31-6 or

 1    Section 32-10 of the Criminal Code of 1961 when the minor  is
 2    subject  to prosecution under the criminal laws of this State
 3    as a result of the application of the provisions  of  Section
 4    5-125,  or  subsection  (1)  or  (2)  of this Section.  These
 5    charges and  all  other  charges  arising  out  of  the  same
 6    incident  shall be prosecuted under the criminal laws of this
 7    State.
 8        (b) (i)  If  before  trial  or  plea  an  information  or
 9    indictment is filed that does not charge an offense specified
10    in paragraph (a) of this subsection (5), the State's Attorney
11    may proceed on any lesser charge  or  charges,  but  only  in
12    Juvenile  Court  under  the  provisions of this Article.  The
13    State's Attorney may proceed under the criminal laws of  this
14    State  on a lesser charge if before trial the minor defendant
15    knowingly and with advice of counsel waives, in writing,  his
16    or her right to have the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
17        (ii)  If   before   trial   or  plea  an  information  or
18    indictment  is  filed  that  includes  one  or  more  charges
19    specified  in  paragraph  (a)  of  this  subsection  (5)  and
20    additional charges that are not specified in that  paragraph,
21    all  of the charges arising out of the same incident shall be
22    prosecuted under the criminal laws of this State.
23        (c) (i)  If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of
24    any offense covered by paragraph (a) of this subsection  (5),
25    then, in sentencing the minor, the court shall have available
26    any  or  all  dispositions  prescribed for that offense under
27    Chapter V  of the Unified Code of Corrections.
28        (ii)  If after trial or plea the  court  finds  that  the
29    minor  committed  an  offense not covered by paragraph (a) of
30    this subsection (5), the conviction shall not invalidate  the
31    verdict  or  the  prosecution of the minor under the criminal
32    laws of this State;  however, unless  the  State  requests  a
33    hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
34    V  of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
 
                            -11-           LRB9213222RCcdam01
 1    under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article. To request  a
 2    hearing,  the State must file a written motion within 10 days
 3    following the entry of a finding or the return of a  verdict.
 4    Reasonable  notice  of the motion shall be given to the minor
 5    or his or her counsel.  If the motion is made by  the  State,
 6    the court shall conduct a hearing to determine if whether the
 7    minor should be sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code
 8    of Corrections.  In making its determination, the court shall
 9    consider  among  other matters: (a) whether there is evidence
10    that  the  offense  was  committed  in  an   aggressive   and
11    premeditated  manner;  (b)  the  age  of  the minor;  (c) the
12    previous delinquent history of the minor; (d)  whether  there
13    are  facilities  particularly available to the Juvenile Court
14    or the Department of Corrections, Juvenile Division, for  the
15    treatment  and  rehabilitation  of the minor; (e) whether the
16    security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
17    the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f)  whether  the  minor
18    possessed  a  deadly weapon when committing the offense.  The
19    rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial.  If after
20    the  hearing  the  court  finds  that  the  minor  should  be
21    sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
22    then the court shall sentence the  minor  accordingly  having
23    available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
24        (6)  The  definition  of  delinquent  minor under Section
25    5-120 of this Article shall  not  apply  to  any  minor  who,
26    pursuant  to subsection (1), (2), or (3) or Section 5-805, or
27    5-810, has previously been placed under the  jurisdiction  of
28    the criminal court and has been convicted of a crime under an
29    adult  criminal  or  penal  statute.  Such  a  minor shall be
30    subject to prosecution under the criminal laws of this State.
31        (7)  The procedures set  out  in  this  Article  for  the
32    investigation,  arrest  and prosecution of juvenile offenders
33    shall not apply to minors who are excluded from  jurisdiction
34    of  the  Juvenile Court, except that minors under 17 years of
 
                            -12-           LRB9213222RCcdam01
 1    age shall be kept separate from confined adults.
 2        (8)  Nothing  in  this  Act  prohibits  or   limits   the
 3    prosecution of any minor for an offense committed on or after
 4    his or her 17th birthday even though he or she is at the time
 5    of the offense a ward of the court.
 6        (9)  If an original petition for adjudication of wardship
 7    alleges  the commission by a minor 13 years of age or over of
 8    an act that constitutes a crime under the laws of this State,
 9    the minor, with the consent of his or her  counsel,  may,  at
10    any  time  before  commencement  of the adjudicatory hearing,
11    file with the court a motion  that  criminal  prosecution  be
12    ordered and that the petition be dismissed insofar as the act
13    or  acts  involved in the criminal proceedings are concerned.
14    If such a motion is filed as herein provided, the court shall
15    enter its order accordingly.
16        (10)  Before trial, any party including the minor or  the
17    court  sua  sponte  may move for a hearing for the purpose of
18    trying and sentencing the minor as  a  delinquent  minor.  To
19    request  a  hearing,  the  party  must file a motion prior to
20    trial. Reasonable notice of the motion shall be given to  all
21    parties.  On its own motion or upon the filing of a motion by
22    one of the parties  including  the  minor,  the  court  shall
23    conduct  a  hearing  to determine whether the minor should be
24    tried and sentenced as a delinquent minor under this Article.
25    In making its determination, the court shall  consider  among
26    other matters:
27        (a)  The age of the minor;
28        (b)  Any  previous  delinquent or criminal history of the
29    minor;
30        (c)  Any previous abuse or neglect history of the minor;
31        (d)  Any mental health  or  educational  history  of  the
32    minor, or both; and
33        (e)  Whether  there  is  probable  cause  to  support the
34    charge, whether the minor is charged through  accountability,
 
                            -13-           LRB9213222RCcdam01
 1    and  whether  there  is evidence the minor possessed a deadly
 2    weapon or caused serious bodily harm during the offense.
 3        Any material that  is  relevant  and  reliable  shall  be
 4    admissible  at  the  hearing.   In all cases, the judge shall
 5    enter an order permitting prosecution under the criminal laws
 6    of Illinois unless the judge  makes  a  finding  based  on  a
 7    preponderance  of  the  evidence  that  the  minor  would  be
 8    amenable  to  the  care,  treatment,  and  training  programs
 9    available  through the facilities of the juvenile court based
10    on an evaluation of the factors  listed  in  this  subsection
11    (10).
