| ||||
Public Act 098-0899 | ||||
| ||||
| ||||
AN ACT concerning safety.
| ||||
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||
represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||
Section 5. The Firearm Concealed Carry Act is amended by | ||||
changing Section 70 as follows: | ||||
(430 ILCS 66/70)
| ||||
Sec. 70. Violations. | ||||
(a) A license issued or renewed under this Act shall be | ||||
revoked if, at any time, the licensee is found to be ineligible | ||||
for a license under this Act or the licensee no longer meets | ||||
the eligibility requirements of the Firearm Owners | ||||
Identification Card Act. | ||||
(b) A license shall be suspended if an order of protection, | ||||
including an emergency order of protection, plenary order of | ||||
protection, or interim order of protection under Article 112A | ||||
of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963 or under the Illinois | ||||
Domestic Violence Act of 1986, is issued against a licensee for | ||||
the duration of the order, or if the Department is made aware | ||||
of a similar order issued against the licensee in any other | ||||
jurisdiction. If an order of protection is issued against a | ||||
licensee, the licensee shall surrender the license, as | ||||
applicable, to the court at the time the order is entered or to | ||||
the law enforcement agency or entity serving process at the |
time the licensee is served the order. The court, law | ||
enforcement agency, or entity responsible for serving the order | ||
of protection shall notify the Department within 7 days and | ||
transmit the license to the Department. | ||
(c) A license is invalid upon expiration of the license, | ||
unless the licensee has submitted an application to renew the | ||
license, and the applicant is otherwise eligible to possess a | ||
license under this Act. | ||
(d) A licensee shall not carry a concealed firearm while | ||
under the influence of alcohol, other drug or drugs, | ||
intoxicating compound or combination of compounds, or any | ||
combination thereof, under the standards set forth in | ||
subsection (a) of Section 11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code. | ||
A licensee in violation of this subsection (d) shall be | ||
guilty of a Class A misdemeanor for a first or second violation | ||
and a Class 4 felony for a third violation. The Department may | ||
suspend a license for up to 6 months for a second violation and | ||
shall permanently revoke a license for a third violation. | ||
(e) Except as otherwise provided, a licensee in violation | ||
of this Act shall be guilty of a Class B misdemeanor. A second | ||
or subsequent violation is a Class A misdemeanor. The | ||
Department may suspend a license for up to 6 months for a | ||
second violation and shall permanently revoke a license for 3 | ||
or more violations of Section 65 of this Act. Any person | ||
convicted of a violation under this Section shall pay a $150 | ||
fee to be deposited into the Mental Health Reporting Fund, plus |
any applicable court costs or fees. | ||
(f) A licensee convicted or found guilty of a violation of | ||
this Act who has a valid license and is otherwise eligible to | ||
carry a concealed firearm shall only be subject to the | ||
penalties under this Section and shall not be subject to the | ||
penalties under Section 21-6, paragraph (4), (8), or (10) of | ||
subsection (a) of Section 24-1, or subparagraph (A-5) or (B-5) | ||
of paragraph (3) of subsection (a) of Section 24-1.6 of the | ||
Criminal Code of 2012. Except as otherwise provided in this | ||
subsection, nothing in this subsection prohibits the licensee | ||
from being subjected to penalties for violations other than | ||
those specified in this Act. | ||
(g) A licensee whose license is revoked, suspended, or | ||
denied shall, within 48 hours of receiving notice of the | ||
revocation, suspension, or denial , surrender his or her | ||
concealed carry license to the local law enforcement agency | ||
where the person resides. The local law enforcement agency | ||
shall provide the licensee a receipt and transmit the concealed | ||
carry license to the Department of State Police. If the | ||
licensee whose concealed carry license has been revoked, | ||
suspended, or denied fails to comply with the requirements of | ||
this subsection, the law enforcement agency where the person | ||
resides may petition the circuit court to issue a warrant to | ||
search for and seize the concealed carry license in the | ||
possession and under the custody or control of the licensee | ||
whose concealed carry license has been revoked, suspended, or |
denied. The observation of a concealed carry license in the | ||
possession of a person whose license has been revoked, | ||
suspended, or denied constitutes a sufficient basis for the | ||
arrest of that person for violation of this subsection. A | ||
violation of this subsection is a Class A misdemeanor. | ||
(h) A license issued or renewed under this Act shall be | ||
revoked if, at any time, the licensee is found ineligible for a | ||
Firearm Owner's Identification Card, or the licensee no longer | ||
possesses a valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card. A | ||
licensee whose license is revoked under this subsection (h) | ||
shall surrender his or her concealed carry license as provided | ||
for in subsection (g) of this Section. | ||
This subsection shall not apply to a person who has filed | ||
an application with the State Police for renewal of a Firearm
| ||
Owner's Identification Card and who is not otherwise ineligible | ||
to obtain a Firearm Owner's Identification Card.
| ||
(i) A certified firearms instructor who knowingly provides | ||
or offers to provide a false certification that an applicant | ||
has completed firearms training as required under this Act is | ||
guilty of a Class A misdemeanor. A person guilty of a violation | ||
of this subsection (i) is not eligible for court supervision. | ||
The Department shall permanently revoke the firearms | ||
instructor certification of a person convicted under this | ||
subsection (i). | ||

Section 10. The Unified Code of Corrections is amended by | ||
changing Section 5-6-1 as follows:
| ||
(730 ILCS 5/5-6-1) (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-6-1)
| ||
Sec. 5-6-1. Sentences of Probation and of Conditional
| ||
Discharge and Disposition of Supervision.
The General Assembly | ||
finds that in order to protect the public, the
criminal justice | ||
system must compel compliance with the conditions of probation
| ||
by responding to violations with swift, certain and fair | ||
punishments and
intermediate sanctions. The Chief Judge of each | ||
circuit shall adopt a system of
structured, intermediate | ||
sanctions for violations of the terms and conditions
of a | ||
sentence of probation, conditional discharge or disposition of
| ||
supervision.
| ||
(a) Except where specifically prohibited by other
| ||
provisions of this Code, the court shall impose a sentence
of | ||
probation or conditional discharge upon an offender
unless, | ||
having regard to the nature and circumstance of
the offense, | ||
and to the history, character and condition
of the offender, | ||
the court is of the opinion that:
| ||
(1) his imprisonment or periodic imprisonment is | ||
necessary
for the protection of the public; or
| ||
(2) probation or conditional discharge would deprecate
| ||
the seriousness of the offender's conduct and would be
| ||
inconsistent with the ends of justice; or
| ||
(3) a combination of imprisonment with concurrent or |
consecutive probation when an offender has been admitted | ||
into a drug court program under Section 20 of the Drug | ||
Court Treatment Act is necessary for the protection of the | ||
public and for the rehabilitation of the offender.
| ||
The court shall impose as a condition of a sentence of | ||
probation,
conditional discharge, or supervision, that the | ||
probation agency may invoke any
sanction from the list of | ||
intermediate sanctions adopted by the chief judge of
the | ||
circuit court for violations of the terms and conditions of the | ||
sentence of
probation, conditional discharge, or supervision, | ||
subject to the provisions of
Section 5-6-4 of this Act.
| ||
(b) The court may impose a sentence of conditional
| ||
discharge for an offense if the court is of the opinion
that | ||
neither a sentence of imprisonment nor of periodic
imprisonment | ||
nor of probation supervision is appropriate.
| ||
(b-1) Subsections (a) and (b) of this Section do not apply | ||
to a defendant charged with a misdemeanor or felony under the | ||
Illinois Vehicle Code or reckless homicide under Section 9-3 of | ||
the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 if the | ||
defendant within the past 12 months has been convicted of or | ||
pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor or felony under the Illinois | ||
Vehicle Code or reckless homicide under Section 9-3 of the | ||
Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012. | ||
(c) The court may, upon a plea of guilty or a stipulation
| ||
by the defendant of the facts supporting the charge or a
| ||
finding of guilt, defer further proceedings and the
imposition |
of a sentence, and enter an order for supervision of the | ||
defendant,
if the defendant is not charged with: (i) a Class A | ||
misdemeanor, as
defined by the following provisions of the | ||
Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012: Sections
| ||
11-9.1; 12-3.2; 11-1.50 or 12-15; 26-5 or 48-1; 31-1; 31-6; | ||
31-7; paragraphs (2) and (3) of subsection (a) of Section
21-1;
| ||
paragraph (1) through (5), (8), (10), and (11) of subsection | ||
(a) of Section
24-1; (ii) a Class A misdemeanor violation of | ||
Section
3.01,
3.03-1, or 4.01 of the Humane Care
for Animals | ||
Act; or (iii)
a felony.
If the defendant
is not barred from | ||
receiving an order for supervision as provided in this
| ||
subsection, the court may enter an order for supervision after | ||
considering the
circumstances of the offense, and the history,
| ||
character and condition of the offender, if the court is of the | ||
opinion
that:
| ||
(1) the offender is not likely to commit further | ||
crimes;
| ||
(2) the defendant and the public would be best served | ||
if the
defendant were not to receive a criminal record; and
| ||
(3) in the best interests of justice an order of | ||
supervision
is more appropriate than a sentence otherwise | ||
permitted under this Code.
| ||
(c-5) Subsections (a), (b), and (c) of this Section do not | ||
apply to a defendant charged with a second or subsequent | ||
violation of Section 6-303 of the Illinois Vehicle Code | ||
committed while his or her driver's license, permit or |
privileges were revoked because of a violation of Section 9-3 | ||
of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, | ||
relating to the offense of reckless homicide, or a similar | ||
provision of a law of another state.
| ||
(d) The provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply to a | ||
defendant charged
with violating Section 11-501 of the Illinois | ||
Vehicle Code or a similar
provision of a local
ordinance when | ||
the defendant has previously been:
| ||
(1) convicted for a violation of Section 11-501 of
the | ||
Illinois Vehicle
Code or a similar provision of a
local | ||
ordinance or any similar law or ordinance of another state; | ||
or
| ||
(2) assigned supervision for a violation of Section | ||
11-501 of the Illinois
Vehicle Code or a similar provision | ||
of a local ordinance or any similar law
or ordinance of | ||
another state; or
| ||
(3) pleaded guilty to or stipulated to the facts | ||
supporting
a charge or a finding of guilty to a violation | ||
of Section 11-503 of the
Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar | ||
provision of a local ordinance or any
similar law or | ||
ordinance of another state, and the
plea or stipulation was | ||
the result of a plea agreement.
| ||
The court shall consider the statement of the prosecuting
| ||
authority with regard to the standards set forth in this | ||
Section.
| ||
(e) The provisions of paragraph (c) shall not apply to a |
defendant
charged with violating Section 16-25 or 16A-3 of the | ||
Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 if said
| ||
defendant has within the last 5 years been:

11-1002.5, or Section 11-1414
of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a | ||
similar provision of a local ordinance.
