2 AMENDMENT NO. . Amend House Bill 5858 by replacing
3 everything after the enacting clause with the following:
4 "Section 5. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended by
5 adding Section 4-214.1 as follows:
6 (625 ILCS 5/4-214.1 new)
7 Sec. 4-214.1. Failure to pay fines, charges, and costs
8 on an abandoned vehicle.
9 (a) Whenever any resident of this State fails to pay any
10 fine, charge, or cost imposed for a violation of Section
11 4-201 of this Code, or a similar provision of a local
12 ordinance, the clerk may notify the Secretary of State, on a
13 report prescribed by the Secretary, and the Secretary shall
14 prohibit the renewal, reissue, or reinstatement of the
15 resident's driving privileges until the fine, charge, or cost
16 has been paid in full. The clerk shall provide notice to the
17 driver, at the driver's last known address as shown on the
18 court's records, stating that the action will be effective on
19 the 46th day following the date of the above notice if
20 payment is not received in full by the court of venue.
21 (b) Following receipt of the report from the clerk, the
22 Secretary of State shall make the proper notation to the
-2- LRB9212728DHgcam01
1 driver's file to prohibit the renewal, reissue, or
2 reinstatement of the driver's driving privileges. Except as
3 provided in subsection (d) of this Section, the notation
4 shall not be removed from the driver's record until the
5 driver satisfies the outstanding fine, charge, or cost and an
6 appropriate notice on a form prescribed by the Secretary is
7 received by the Secretary from the court of venue, stating
8 that the fine, charge, or cost has been paid in full. Upon
9 payment in full of a fine, charge, or court cost which has
10 previously been reported under this Section as unpaid, the
11 clerk of the court shall present the driver with a signed
12 receipt containing the seal of the court indicating that the
13 fine, charge, or cost has been paid in full, and shall
14 forward immediately to the Secretary of State a notice
15 stating that the fine, charge, or cost has been paid in full.
16 (c) Notwithstanding the receipt of a report from the
17 clerk as prescribed in subsection (a), nothing in this
18 Section is intended to place any responsibility upon the
19 Secretary of State to provide independent notice to the
20 driver of any potential action to disallow the renewal,
21 reissue, or reinstatement of the driver's driving privileges.
22 (d) The Secretary of State shall renew, reissue, or
23 reinstate a driver's driving privileges which were previously
24 refused under this Section upon presentation of an original
25 receipt which is signed by the clerk of the court and
26 contains the seal of the court indicating that the fine,
27 charge, or cost has been paid in full. The Secretary of
28 State shall retain the receipt for his or her records.

30 becoming law.".
