7 follows:
8 (720 ILCS 570/100) (from Ch. 56 1/2, par. 1100)
9 Sec. 100. Legislative intent. It is the intent of the
10 General Assembly, recognizing the rising incidence in the
11 abuse of drugs and other dangerous substances and its
12 resultant damage to the peace, health, and welfare of the
13 citizens of Illinois, to provide a system of control over the
14 distribution and use of controlled substances which will more
15 effectively: (1) limit access of such substances only to
16 those persons who have demonstrated an appropriate sense of
17 responsibility and have a lawful and legitimate reason to
18 possess them; (2) deter the unlawful and destructive abuse of
19 controlled substances; (3) penalize most heavily the illicit
20 traffickers or profiteers of controlled substances, who
21 propagate and perpetuate the abuse of such substances with
22 reckless disregard for its consumptive consequences upon
23 every element of society; (4) acknowledge the functional and
24 consequential differences between the various types of
25 controlled substances and provide for correspondingly
26 different degrees of control over each of the various types;
27 (5) unify where feasible and codify the efforts of this state
28 to conform with the regulatory systems of the Federal
29 government and other states to establish national
30 coordination of efforts to control the abuse of controlled
31 substances; and (6) provide law enforcement authorities with
32 the necessary resources to make this system efficacious.
-16- LRB9009448RCksam
1 It is not the intent of the General Assembly to treat the
2 unlawful user or occasional petty distributor of controlled
3 substances with the same severity as the large-scale,
4 unlawful purveyors and traffickers of controlled substances.
5 However, it is recognized that persons who violate this Act
6 with respect to the manufacture, delivery, possession with
7 intent to deliver, or possession of more than one type of
8 controlled substance listed herein may accordingly receive
9 multiple convictions and sentences under each Section of this
10 Act. To this end, guidelines have been provided, along with a
11 wide latitude in sentencing discretion, to enable the
12 sentencing court to order penalties in each case which are
13 appropriate for the purposes of this Act.
14 Legislative intent. It is the intent of the General
15 Assembly, recognizing the rising incidence in the abuse of
16 drugs and other dangerous substances and its resultant damage
17 to the peace, health, and welfare of the citizens of
18 Illinois, to provide a system of control over the
19 distribution and use of controlled substances which will more
20 effectively: (1) limit access of such substances only to
21 those persons who have demonstrated an appropriate sense of
22 responsibility and have a lawful and legitimate reason to
23 possess them; (2) deter the unlawful and destructive abuse of
24 controlled substances; (3) penalize most heavily the illicit
25 traffickers or profiteers of controlled substances, who
26 propagate and perpetuate the abuse of such substances with
27 reckless disregard for its consumptive consequences upon
28 every element of society; (4) acknowledge the functional and
29 consequential differences between the various types of
30 controlled substances and provide for correspondingly
31 different degrees of control over each of the various types;

1 coordination of efforts to control the abuse of controlled
2 substances; and (6) provide law enforcement authorities with
3 the necessary resources to make this system efficacious.
4 It is not the intent of the General Assembly to treat the
5 unlawful user or occasional petty distributor of controlled
6 substances with the same severity as the large-scale,
7 unlawful purveyors and traffickers of controlled substances.
8 However, it is recognized that persons who violate this Act
9 with respect to the manufacture, delivery, possession with
10 intent to deliver, or possession of more than one type of
11 controlled substance listed herein may accordingly receive
12 multiple convictions and sentences under each Section of this
13 Act. To this end, guidelines have been provided, along with a
14 wide latitude in sentencing discretion, to enable the
15 sentencing court to order penalties in each case which are
16 appropriate for the purposes of this Act.

30 relationship to the degree of direct participation of the
31 law enforcement agency in the effort resulting in the
32 forfeiture, taking into account the total value of the
33 property forfeited and the total law enforcement effort
34 with respect to the violation of the law upon which the

13 forfeiture proceedings shall be instituted in accordance with

2 (5) place the property under constructive seizure
3 by posting notice of pending forfeiture on it, by giving

5 holders, or by filing notice of pending forfeiture in any
6 appropriate public record relating to the property; or
7 (6) provide for another agency or custodian,
8 including an owner, secured party, or lienholder, to take
9 custody of the property upon the terms and conditions set
10 by the Director.
11 (e) If the Department of Professional Regulation
12 suspends or revokes a registration, all controlled substances
13 owned or possessed by the registrant at the time of
14 suspension or the effective date of the revocation order may

26 and shall distribute the proceeds of the sale, together with
27 any moneys forfeited or seized, in accordance with subsection
28 (g). However, upon the application of the seizing agency or
29 prosecutor who was responsible for the investigation, arrest
30 or arrests and prosecution which lead to the forfeiture, the
31 Director may return any item of forfeited property to the
32 seizing agency or prosecutor for official use in the
33 enforcement of laws relating to cannabis or controlled
34 substances, if the agency or prosecutor can demonstrate that
-50- LRB9009448RCksam
1 the item requested would be useful to the agency or
2 prosecutor in their enforcement efforts. When any real
3 property returned to the seizing agency is sold by the agency
4 or its unit of government, the proceeds of the sale shall be
5 delivered to the Director and distributed in accordance with
6 subsection (g).

10 (1) 65% shall be distributed to the metropolitan
11 enforcement group, local, municipal, county, or state law
12 enforcement agency or agencies which conducted or
13 participated in the investigation resulting in the
14 forfeiture. The distribution shall bear a reasonable
15 relationship to the degree of direct participation of the
16 law enforcement agency in the effort resulting in the
17 forfeiture, taking into account the total value of the
18 property forfeited and the total law enforcement effort
19 with respect to the violation of the law upon which the
20 forfeiture is based. Amounts distributed to the agency or
21 agencies shall be used for the enforcement of laws
22 governing cannabis and controlled substances, except that

14 shall not receive distribution from cases brought in
15 counties with over 3,000,000 population.
16 (3) 10% shall be retained by the Department of
17 State Police for expenses related to the administration

21 or cultivated in violation of this Act, or of which the
22 owners or cultivators are unknown, or which are wild growths,

24 failure, upon demand by the Director or any peace officer, of
25 the person in occupancy or in control of land or premises
26 upon which the species of plants are growing or being stored,
27 to produce registration, or proof that he is the holder
28 thereof, constitutes authority for the seizure and forfeiture

-55- LRB9009448RCksam
1 (725 ILCS 150/9) (from Ch. 56 1/2, par. 1679)
2 Sec. 9. Judicial in rem procedures. If property seized

5 exceeds $20,000 in value excluding the value of any
6 conveyance, or is real property, or a claimant has filed a
7 claim and a cost bond under subsection (C) of Section 6 of
8 this Act, the following judicial in rem procedures shall
9 apply:
10 (A) If, after a review of the facts surrounding the
11 seizure, the State's Attorney is of the opinion that the
12 seized property is subject to forfeiture, then within 45 days
13 of the receipt of notice of seizure by the seizing agency or
14 the filing of the claim and cost bond, whichever is later,
15 the State's Attorney shall institute judicial forfeiture
16 proceedings by filing a verified complaint for forfeiture
17 and, if the claimant has filed a claim and cost bond, by
18 depositing the cost bond with the clerk of the court. When
19 authorized by law, a forfeiture must be ordered by a court on
20 an action in rem brought by a State's Attorney under a
21 verified complaint for forfeiture.
22 (B) During the probable cause portion of the judicial in
23 rem proceeding wherein the State presents its case-in-chief,
24 the court must receive and consider, among other things, all
25 relevant hearsay evidence and information. The laws of
26 evidence relating to civil actions shall apply to all other
27 portions of the judicial in rem proceeding.
28 (C) Only an owner of or interest holder in the property
29 may file an answer asserting a claim against the property in
30 the action in rem. For purposes of this Section, the owner
31 or interest holder shall be referred to as claimant.
32 (D) The answer must be signed by the owner or interest
33 holder under penalty of perjury and must set forth:
34 (i) the caption of the proceedings as set forth on
-56- LRB9009448RCksam
1 the notice of pending forfeiture and the name of the
2 claimant;

27 (H) If the State does not show existence of probable
28 cause or a claimant has established by a preponderance of
29 evidence that the claimant has an interest that is exempt
30 under Section 8 of this Act, the court shall order the
31 interest in the property returned or conveyed to the claimant
32 and shall order all other property forfeited to the State. If
33 the State does show existence of probable cause and the
34 claimant does not establish by a preponderance of evidence
-57- LRB9009448RCksam
1 that the claimant has an interest that is exempt under
2 Section 8 of this Act, the court shall order all property
3 forfeited to the State.
4 (I) A defendant convicted in any criminal proceeding is
5 precluded from later denying the essential allegations of the
6 criminal offense of which the defendant was convicted in any
7 proceeding under this Act regardless of the pendency of an
8 appeal from that conviction. However, evidence of the
9 pendency of an appeal is admissible.
10 (J) An acquittal or dismissal in a criminal proceeding
11 shall not preclude civil proceedings under this Act; however,
12 for good cause shown, on a motion by the State's Attorney,
13 the court may stay civil forfeiture proceedings during the
14 criminal trial for a related criminal indictment or
15 information alleging a violation of the Illinois Controlled
16 Substances Act or the Cannabis Control Act. Such a stay
17 shall not be available pending an appeal. Property subject
18 to forfeiture under the Illinois Controlled Substances Act or
19 the Cannabis Control Act shall not be subject to return or

25 forfeiture together with the proceeds of the property after
26 that time. Any such property or proceeds subsequently
27 transferred to any person remain subject to forfeiture and
28 thereafter shall be ordered forfeited unless the transferee
29 claims and establishes in a hearing under the provisions of
30 this Act that the transferee's interest is exempt under
31 Section 8 of this Act.

33 within 5 years after the last conduct giving rise to
34 forfeiture became known or should have become known or 5
-58- LRB9009448RCksam
1 years after the forfeitable property is discovered, whichever
2 is later, excluding any time during which either the property
3 or claimant is out of the State or in confinement or during
4 which criminal proceedings relating to the same conduct are
5 in progress.
6 Judicial in rem procedures. If property seized under the
7 provisions of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act or the
8 Cannabis Control Act is non-real property that exceeds
9 $20,000 in value excluding the value of any conveyance, or is
10 real property, or a claimant has filed a claim and a cost
11 bond under subsection (C) of Section 6 of this Act, the
12 following judicial in rem procedures shall apply:

14 seizure, the State's Attorney is of the opinion that the
15 seized property is subject to forfeiture, then within 45 days
16 of the receipt of notice of seizure by the seizing agency or
17 the filing of the claim and cost bond, whichever is later,
18 the State's Attorney shall institute judicial forfeiture
19 proceedings by filing a verified complaint for forfeiture
20 and, if the claimant has filed a claim and cost bond, by
21 depositing the cost bond with the clerk of the court. When
22 authorized by law, a forfeiture must be ordered by a court on
23 an action in rem brought by a State's Attorney under a
24 verified complaint for forfeiture.
25 (B) During the probable cause portion of the judicial in
26 rem proceeding wherein the State presents its case-in-chief,
27 the court must receive and consider, among other things, all
28 relevant hearsay evidence and information. The laws of
29 evidence relating to civil actions shall apply to all other
30 portions of the judicial in rem proceeding.
31 (C) Only an owner of or interest holder in the property
32 may file an answer asserting a claim against the property in
33 the action in rem. For purposes of this Section, the owner
34 or interest holder shall be referred to as claimant.

2 holder under penalty of perjury and must set forth:
3 (i) the caption of the proceedings as set forth on
4 the notice of pending forfeiture and the name of the
5 claimant;
6 (ii) the address at which the claimant will accept
7 mail;
8 (iii) the nature and extent of the claimant's
9 interest in the property;
10 (iv) the date, identity of transferor, and
11 circumstances of the claimant's acquisition of the
12 interest in the property;
13 (v) the name and address of all other persons known
14 to have an interest in the property;
15 (vi) the specific provisions of Section 8 of this
16 Act relied on in asserting it is not subject to
17 forfeiture;
18 (vii) all essential facts supporting each

23 (F) The hearing must be held within 60 days after filing
24 of the answer unless continued for good cause.

30 (H) If the State does not show existence of probable
31 cause or a claimant has established by a preponderance of
32 evidence that the claimant has an interest that is exempt
33 under Section 8 of this Act, the court shall order the
34 interest in the property returned or conveyed to the claimant
-60- LRB9009448RCksam

3 claimant does not establish by a preponderance of evidence
4 that the claimant has an interest that is exempt under
5 Section 8 of this Act, the court shall order all property
6 forfeited to the State.

8 precluded from later denying the essential allegations of the
9 criminal offense of which the defendant was convicted in any
10 proceeding under this Act regardless of the pendency of an
11 appeal from that conviction. However, evidence of the
12 pendency of an appeal is admissible.
13 (J) An acquittal or dismissal in a criminal proceeding
14 shall not preclude civil proceedings under this Act; however,
15 for good cause shown, on a motion by the State's Attorney,
16 the court may stay civil forfeiture proceedings during the

25 Sec. 5-2-4. Proceedings after Acquittal by Reason of
26 Insanity.
27 (a) After a finding or verdict of not guilty by reason
28 of insanity under Sections 104-25, 115-3 or 115-4 of The Code
29 of Criminal Procedure of 1963, the defendant shall be ordered
30 to the Department of Human Services for an evaluation as to
31 whether he is subject to involuntary admission or in need of
-62- LRB9009448RCksam
1 mental health services. The order shall specify whether the
2 evaluation shall be conducted on an inpatient or outpatient
3 basis. If the evaluation is to be conducted on an inpatient
4 basis, the defendant shall be placed in a secure setting
5 unless the Court determines that there are compelling reasons
6 why such placement is not necessary. After the evaluation and
7 during the period of time required to determine the
8 appropriate placement, the defendant shall remain in jail.
9 Upon completion of the placement process the sheriff shall
10 be notified and shall transport the defendant to the
11 designated facility.
12 The Department shall provide the Court with a report of
13 its evaluation within 30 days of the date of this order. The
14 Court shall hold a hearing as provided under the Mental
15 Health and Developmental Disabilities Code to determine if
16 the individual is: (a) subject to involuntary admission; (b)
17 in need of mental health services on an inpatient basis; (c)
18 in need of mental health services on an outpatient basis; (d)
19 a person not in need of mental health services. The Court
20 shall enter its findings.
21 If the defendant is found to be subject to involuntary
22 admission or in need of mental health services on an
23 inpatient care basis, the Court shall order the defendant to
24 the Department of Human Services. The defendant shall be
25 placed in a secure setting unless the Court determines that
26 there are compelling reasons why such placement is not
27 necessary. Such defendants placed in a secure setting shall
28 not be permitted outside the facility's housing unit unless
29 escorted or accompanied by personnel of the Department of
30 Human Services or with the prior approval of the Court for
31 unsupervised on-grounds privileges as provided herein. Any
32 defendant placed in a secure setting pursuant to this
33 Section, transported to court hearings or other necessary
34 appointments off facility grounds by personnel of the
-63- LRB9009448RCksam
1 Department of Human Services, may be placed in security
2 devices or otherwise secured during the period of
3 transportation to assure secure transport of the defendant
4 and the safety of Department of Human Services personnel and
5 others. These security measures shall not constitute
6 restraint as defined in the Mental Health and Developmental
7 Disabilities Code. If the defendant is found to be in need
8 of mental health services, but not on an inpatient care
9 basis, the Court shall conditionally release the defendant,
10 under such conditions as set forth in this Section as will
11 reasonably assure the defendant's satisfactory progress in
12 treatment or rehabilitation and the safety of the defendant
13 or others. If the Court finds the person not in need of
14 mental health services, then the Court shall order the
15 defendant discharged from custody.
16 (1) Definitions: For the purposes of this Section:
17 (A) "Subject to involuntary admission" means: A
18 defendant has been found not guilty by reason of
19 insanity; and
20 (i) who is mentally ill and who because of his
21 mental illness is reasonably expected to inflict
22 serious physical harm upon himself or another in the
23 near future; or
24 (ii) who is mentally ill and who because of
25 his illness is unable to provide for his basic
26 physical needs so as to guard himself from serious
27 harm.
28 (B) "In need of mental health services on an
29 inpatient basis" means: a defendant who has been found
30 not guilty by reason of insanity who is not subject to
31 involuntary admission but who is reasonably expected to
32 inflict serious physical harm upon himself or another and
33 who would benefit from inpatient care or is in need of
34 inpatient care.
-64- LRB9009448RCksam
1 (C) "In need of mental health services on an
2 outpatient basis" means: a defendant who has been found
3 not guilty by reason of insanity who is not subject to
4 involuntary admission or in need of mental health
5 services on an inpatient basis, but is in need of
6 outpatient care, drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation
7 programs, community adjustment programs, individual,
8 group, or family therapy, or chemotherapy.
9 (D) "Conditional Release" means: the release from
10 either the custody of the Department of Human Services or
11 the custody of the Court of a person who has been found
12 not guilty by reason of insanity under such conditions as
13 the court may impose which reasonably assure the
14 defendant's satisfactory progress in treatment or
15 habilitation and the safety of the defendant and others.
16 The Court shall consider such terms and conditions which
17 may include, but need not be limited to, outpatient care,
18 alcoholic and drug rehabilitation programs, community
19 adjustment programs, individual, group, family, and
20 chemotherapy, periodic checks with the legal authorities
21 and/or the Department of Human Services. The person or
22 facility rendering the outpatient care shall be required
23 to periodically report to the Court on the progress of
24 the Defendant. Such conditional release shall be for a
25 period of five years, unless the defendant, the person or
26 facility rendering the treatment, therapy, program or
27 outpatient care, or the State's attorney petitions the
28 Court for an extension of the conditional release period
29 for an additional three years. Upon receipt of such a
30 petition, the Court shall hold a hearing consistent with
31 the provisions of this paragraph (a) and paragraph (f) of
32 this Section, shall determine whether the defendant
33 should continue to be subject to the terms of conditional
34 release, and shall enter an order either extending the
-65- LRB9009448RCksam
1 defendant's period of conditional release for a single
2 additional three year period or discharging the
3 defendant. In no event shall the defendant's period of
4 conditional release exceed eight years. These provisions
5 for extension of conditional release shall only apply to
6 defendants conditionally released on or after July 1,
7 1979. However the extension provisions of Public Act
8 83-1449 apply only to defendants charged with a forcible
9 felony.
10 (E) "Facility director" means the chief officer of
11 a mental health or developmental disabilities facility or
12 his or her designee or the supervisor of a program of
13 treatment or habilitation or his or her designee.
14 "Designee" may include a physician, clinical
15 psychologist, social worker, or nurse.
16 (b) If the Court finds the defendant subject to
17 involuntary admission or in need of mental health services on
18 an inpatient basis, the admission, detention, care, treatment
19 or habilitation, review proceedings, and discharge of the
20 defendant after such order shall be under the Mental Health
21 and Developmental Disabilities Code, except that the initial
22 order for admission of a defendant acquitted of a felony by
23 reason of insanity shall be for an indefinite period of time.
24 Such period of commitment shall not exceed the maximum length
25 of time that the defendant would have been required to serve,
26 less credit for good behavior, before becoming eligible for
27 release had he been convicted of and received the maximum
28 sentence for the most serious crime for which he has been
29 acquitted by reason of insanity. The Court shall determine
30 the maximum period of commitment by an appropriate order.
31 During this period of time, the defendant shall not be
32 permitted to be in the community in any manner, including but
33 not limited to off-grounds privileges, with or without escort
34 by personnel of the Department of Human Services,
-66- LRB9009448RCksam
1 unsupervised on-grounds privileges, discharge or conditional
2 or temporary release, except by a plan as provided in this
3 Section. In no event shall a defendant's continued
4 unauthorized absence be a basis for discharge. Not more than
5 30 days after admission and every 60 days thereafter so long
6 as the initial order remains in effect, the facility director
7 shall file a treatment plan with the court. Such plan shall
8 include an evaluation of the defendant's progress and the
9 extent to which he is benefiting from treatment. Such plan
10 may also include unsupervised on-grounds privileges,
11 off-grounds privileges (with or without escort by personnel
12 of the Department of Human Services), home visits and
13 participation in work programs, but only where such
14 privileges have been approved by specific court order, which
15 order may include such conditions on the defendant as the
16 Court may deem appropriate and necessary to reasonably assure
17 the defendant's satisfactory progress in treatment and the
18 safety of the defendant and others.
19 (c) Every defendant acquitted of a felony by reason of
20 insanity and subsequently found to be subject to involuntary
21 admission or in need of mental health services shall be
22 represented by counsel in all proceedings under this Section
23 and under the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities
24 Code.
25 (1) The court shall appoint as counsel the public
26 defender or an attorney licensed by this State.
27 (2) Upon filing with the court of a verified
28 statement of legal services rendered by the private
29 attorney appointed pursuant to paragraph (1) of this
30 subsection, the court shall determine a reasonable fee
31 for such services. If the defendant is unable to pay the
32 fee, the court shall enter an order upon the State to pay
33 the entire fee or such amount as the defendant is unable
34 to pay from funds appropriated by the General Assembly
-67- LRB9009448RCksam
1 for that purpose.
2 (d) When the facility director determines that:
3 (1) the defendant is no longer subject to
4 involuntary admission or in need of mental health
5 services on an inpatient basis; and
6 (2) the defendant may be conditionally released
7 because he or she is still in need of mental health
8 services or that the defendant may be discharged as not
9 in need of any mental health services; or
10 (3) the defendant no longer requires placement in a
11 secure setting;
12 the facility director shall give written notice to the Court,
13 State's Attorney and defense attorney. Such notice shall set
14 forth in detail the basis for the recommendation of the
15 facility director, and specify clearly the recommendations,
16 if any, of the facility director, concerning conditional
17 release. Within 30 days of the notification by the facility
18 director, the Court shall set a hearing and make a finding as
19 to whether the defendant is:
20 (i) subject to involuntary admission; or
21 (ii) in need of mental health services in the form
22 of inpatient care; or
23 (iii) in need of mental health services but not
24 subject to involuntary admission or inpatient care; or
25 (iv) no longer in need of mental health services;
26 or
27 (v) no longer requires placement in a secure
28 setting.
29 Upon finding by the Court, the Court shall enter its
30 findings and such appropriate order as provided in subsection
31 (a) of this Section.
32 (e) A defendant admitted pursuant to this Section, or
33 any person on his behalf, may file a petition for transfer
34 to a non-secure setting within the Department of Human
-68- LRB9009448RCksam
1 Services or discharge or conditional release under the
2 standards of this Section in the court which rendered the
3 verdict. Upon receipt of a petition for transfer to a
4 non-secure setting or discharge or conditional release, the
5 court shall set a hearing to be held within 120 days.
6 Thereafter, no new petition may be filed for 120 days without
7 leave of the court.
8 (f) The court shall direct that notice of the time and
9 place of the hearing be served upon the defendant, the
10 facility director, the State's Attorney, and the defendant's
11 attorney. If requested by either the State or the defense or
12 if the Court feels it is appropriate, an impartial
13 examination of the defendant by a psychiatrist or clinical
14 psychologist as defined in Section 1-103 of the Mental Health
15 and Developmental Disabilities Code who is not in the employ
16 of the Department of Human Services shall be ordered, and the
17 report considered at the time of the hearing.
18 (g) The findings of the court shall be established by
19 clear and convincing evidence. The burden of proof and the
20 burden of going forth with the evidence rest with the State
21 when a hearing is held to review the determination of the
22 facility director that the defendant should be transferred to
23 a non-secure setting, discharged or conditionally released.
24 The burden of proof and the burden of going forth with the
25 evidence rest on the defendant when a hearing is held to
26 review a petition filed by or on behalf of such defendant.
27 The evidence shall be presented in open court with the right
28 of confrontation and cross-examination.
29 (h) If the court finds that the defendant is no longer
30 in need of mental health services it shall order the facility
31 director to discharge the defendant. If the Court finds that
32 the defendant is in need of mental health services, and no
33 longer in need of inpatient care, it shall order the facility
34 director to release the defendant under such conditions as
-69- LRB9009448RCksam
1 the Court deems appropriate and as provided by this Section.
2 Such conditional release shall be imposed for a period of
3 five years and shall be subject to later modification by the
4 court as provided by this Section. If the court finds that
5 the defendant is subject to involuntary admission or in need
6 of mental health services on an inpatient basis, it shall
7 order the facility director not to discharge or release the
8 defendant in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section.
9 (i) If within the period of the defendant's conditional
10 release, the court determines, after hearing evidence, that
11 the defendant has not fulfilled the conditions of release,
12 the court shall order a hearing to be held consistent with
13 the provisions of paragraph (f) and (g) of this section. At
14 such hearing, if the court finds that the defendant is
15 subject to involuntary admission or in need of mental health
16 services on an inpatient basis, it shall enter an order
17 remanding him or her to the Department of Human Services or
18 other facility. If the defendant is remanded to the
19 Department of Human Services, he or she shall be placed in a
20 secure setting unless the court determines that there are
21 compelling reasons that such placement is not necessary. If
22 the court finds that the defendant continues to be in need
23 of mental health services but not on an inpatient basis, it
24 may modify the conditions of the original release in order to
25 reasonably assure the defendant's satisfactory progress in
26 treatment and his or her safety and the safety of others. In
27 no event shall such conditional release be longer than eight
28 years. Nothing in this Section shall limit a court's contempt
29 powers or any other powers of a court.
30 (j) An order of admission under this Section does not
31 affect the remedy of habeas corpus.
32 (k) In the event of a conflict between this Section and
33 the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code or the
34 Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Confidentiality
-70- LRB9009448RCksam
1 Act, the provisions of this Section shall govern.
2 (l) This amendatory Act shall apply to all persons who
3 have been found not guilty by reason of insanity and who are
4 presently committed to the Department of Mental Health and
5 Developmental Disabilities (now the Department of Human
6 Services).
7 (m) The Clerk of the court shall, after the entry of an
8 order of transfer to a non-secure setting of the Department
9 of Human Services or discharge or conditional release,
10 transmit a certified copy of the order to the Department of
11 Human Services, and the sheriff of the county from which the
12 defendant was admitted. In cases where the arrest of the
13 defendant or the commission of the offense took place in any
14 municipality with a population of more than 25,000 persons,
15 the Clerk of the court shall also transmit a certified copy
16 of the order of discharge or conditional release to the
17 proper law enforcement agency for said municipality provided
18 the municipality has requested such notice in writing.
19 Proceedings after Acquittal by Reason of Insanity.
20 (a) After a finding or verdict of not guilty by reason
21 of insanity under Sections 104-25, 115-3 or 115-4 of The Code
22 of Criminal Procedure of 1963, the defendant shall be ordered
23 to the Department of Human Services for an evaluation as to
24 whether he is subject to involuntary admission or in need of
25 mental health services. The order shall specify whether the
26 evaluation shall be conducted on an inpatient or outpatient
27 basis. If the evaluation is to be conducted on an inpatient
28 basis, the defendant shall be placed in a secure setting
29 unless the Court determines that there are compelling reasons
30 why such placement is not necessary. After the evaluation and
31 during the period of time required to determine the
32 appropriate placement, the defendant shall remain in jail.
33 Upon completion of the placement process the sheriff shall
34 be notified and shall transport the defendant to the
-71- LRB9009448RCksam
1 designated facility.
2 The Department shall provide the Court with a report of
3 its evaluation within 30 days of the date of this order. The
4 Court shall hold a hearing as provided under the Mental
5 Health and Developmental Disabilities Code to determine if
6 the individual is: (a) subject to involuntary admission; (b)
7 in need of mental health services on an inpatient basis; (c)
8 in need of mental health services on an outpatient basis; (d)
9 a person not in need of mental health services. The Court
10 shall enter its findings.
11 If the defendant is found to be subject to involuntary
12 admission or in need of mental health services on an
13 inpatient care basis, the Court shall order the defendant to
14 the Department of Human Services. The defendant shall be
15 placed in a secure setting unless the Court determines that
16 there are compelling reasons why such placement is not
17 necessary. Such defendants placed in a secure setting shall
18 not be permitted outside the facility's housing unit unless
19 escorted or accompanied by personnel of the Department of
20 Human Services or with the prior approval of the Court for
21 unsupervised on-grounds privileges as provided herein. Any
22 defendant placed in a secure setting pursuant to this
23 Section, transported to court hearings or other necessary
24 appointments off facility grounds by personnel of the
25 Department of Human Services, may be placed in security
26 devices or otherwise secured during the period of
27 transportation to assure secure transport of the defendant
28 and the safety of Department of Human Services personnel and
29 others. These security measures shall not constitute
30 restraint as defined in the Mental Health and Developmental
31 Disabilities Code. If the defendant is found to be in need
32 of mental health services, but not on an inpatient care
33 basis, the Court shall conditionally release the defendant,
34 under such conditions as set forth in this Section as will
-72- LRB9009448RCksam
1 reasonably assure the defendant's satisfactory progress in
2 treatment or rehabilitation and the safety of the defendant
3 or others. If the Court finds the person not in need of
4 mental health services, then the Court shall order the
5 defendant discharged from custody.
6 (1) Definitions: For the purposes of this Section:
7 (A) "Subject to involuntary admission" means: A
8 defendant has been found not guilty by reason of
9 insanity; and

11 mental illness is reasonably expected to inflict
12 serious physical harm upon himself or another in the
13 near future; or
14 (ii) who is mentally ill and who because of

17 harm.
18 (B) "In need of mental health services on an
19 inpatient basis" means: a defendant who has been found

24 inpatient care.
25 (C) "In need of mental health services on an
26 outpatient basis" means: a defendant who has been found
27 not guilty by reason of insanity who is not subject to

2 not guilty by reason of insanity under such conditions as
3 the court may impose which reasonably assure the
4 defendant's satisfactory progress in treatment or
5 habilitation and the safety of the defendant and others.
6 The Court shall consider such terms and conditions which
7 may include, but need not be limited to, outpatient care,
8 alcoholic and drug rehabilitation programs, community

14 the Defendant. Such conditional release shall be for a
15 period of five years, unless the defendant, the person or
16 facility rendering the treatment, therapy, program or
17 outpatient care, or the State's attorney petitions the
18 Court for an extension of the conditional release period

23 should continue to be subject to the terms of conditional
24 release, and shall enter an order either extending the

16 less credit for good behavior, before becoming eligible for
17 release had he been convicted of and received the maximum
18 sentence for the most serious crime for which he has been
19 acquitted by reason of insanity. The Court shall determine
20 the maximum period of commitment by an appropriate order.
21 During this period of time, the defendant shall not be
22 permitted to be in the community in any manner, including but
23 not limited to off-grounds privileges, with or without escort
24 by personnel of the Department of Human Services,
25 unsupervised on-grounds privileges, discharge or conditional
26 or temporary release, except by a plan as provided in this
27 Section. In no event shall a defendant's continued
28 unauthorized absence be a basis for discharge. Not more than
29 30 days after admission and every 60 days thereafter so long
30 as the initial order remains in effect, the facility director
31 shall file a treatment plan with the court. Such plan shall
32 include an evaluation of the defendant's progress and the

5 order may include such conditions on the defendant as the
6 Court may deem appropriate and necessary to reasonably assure
7 the defendant's satisfactory progress in treatment and the
8 safety of the defendant and others.
9 (c) Every defendant acquitted of a felony by reason of
10 insanity and subsequently found to be subject to involuntary
11 admission or in need of mental health services shall be
12 represented by counsel in all proceedings under this Section
13 and under the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities

18 statement of legal services rendered by the private
19 attorney appointed pursuant to paragraph (1) of this
20 subsection, the court shall determine a reasonable fee
21 for such services. If the defendant is unable to pay the

1 secure setting;
2 the facility director shall give written notice to the Court,
3 State's Attorney and defense attorney. Such notice shall set
4 forth in detail the basis for the recommendation of the
5 facility director, and specify clearly the recommendations,
6 if any, of the facility director, concerning conditional
7 release. Within 30 days of the notification by the facility
8 director, the Court shall set a hearing and make a finding as
9 to whether the defendant is:
10 (i) subject to involuntary admission; or
11 (ii) in need of mental health services in the form
12 of inpatient care; or
13 (iii) in need of mental health services but not
14 subject to involuntary admission or inpatient care; or
15 (iv) no longer in need of mental health services;
16 or
17 (v) no longer requires placement in a secure
18 setting.
19 Upon finding by the Court, the Court shall enter its
20 findings and such appropriate order as provided in subsection
21 (a) of this Section.
22 (e) A defendant admitted pursuant to this Section, or
23 any person on his behalf, may file a petition for transfer
24 to a non-secure setting within the Department of Human
25 Services or discharge or conditional release under the
26 standards of this Section in the court which rendered the
27 verdict. Upon receipt of a petition for transfer to a
28 non-secure setting or discharge or conditional release, the
29 court shall set a hearing to be held within 120 days.
30 Thereafter, no new petition may be filed for 120 days without
31 leave of the court.
32 (f) The court shall direct that notice of the time and
33 place of the hearing be served upon the defendant, the
34 facility director, the State's Attorney, and the defendant's
-77- LRB9009448RCksam
1 attorney. If requested by either the State or the defense or
2 if the Court feels it is appropriate, an impartial
3 examination of the defendant by a psychiatrist or clinical
4 psychologist as defined in Section 1-103 of the Mental Health
5 and Developmental Disabilities Code who is not in the employ
6 of the Department of Human Services shall be ordered, and the
7 report considered at the time of the hearing.
8 (g) The findings of the court shall be established by
9 clear and convincing evidence. The burden of proof and the
10 burden of going forth with the evidence rest with the State
11 when a hearing is held to review the determination of the
12 facility director that the defendant should be transferred to
13 a non-secure setting, discharged or conditionally released.
14 The burden of proof and the burden of going forth with the
15 evidence rest on the defendant when a hearing is held to
16 review a petition filed by or on behalf of such defendant.
17 The evidence shall be presented in open court with the right
18 of confrontation and cross-examination.
19 (h) If the court finds that the defendant is no longer
20 in need of mental health services it shall order the facility
21 director to discharge the defendant. If the Court finds that
22 the defendant is in need of mental health services, and no
23 longer in need of inpatient care, it shall order the facility
24 director to release the defendant under such conditions as
25 the Court deems appropriate and as provided by this Section.
26 Such conditional release shall be imposed for a period of
27 five years and shall be subject to later modification by the
28 court as provided by this Section. If the court finds that
29 the defendant is subject to involuntary admission or in need
30 of mental health services on an inpatient basis, it shall
31 order the facility director not to discharge or release the
32 defendant in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section.
33 (i) If within the period of the defendant's conditional
34 release, the court determines, after hearing evidence, that
-78- LRB9009448RCksam
1 the defendant has not fulfilled the conditions of release,
2 the court shall order a hearing to be held consistent with
3 the provisions of paragraph (f) and (g) of this section. At
4 such hearing, if the court finds that the defendant is
5 subject to involuntary admission or in need of mental health
6 services on an inpatient basis, it shall enter an order
7 remanding him or her to the Department of Human Services or
8 other facility. If the defendant is remanded to the
9 Department of Human Services, he or she shall be placed in a
10 secure setting unless the court determines that there are
11 compelling reasons that such placement is not necessary. If
12 the court finds that the defendant continues to be in need
13 of mental health services but not on an inpatient basis, it
14 may modify the conditions of the original release in order to
15 reasonably assure the defendant's satisfactory progress in
16 treatment and his or her safety and the safety of others. In
17 no event shall such conditional release be longer than eight
18 years. Nothing in this Section shall limit a court's contempt
19 powers or any other powers of a court.
20 (j) An order of admission under this Section does not
21 affect the remedy of habeas corpus.
22 (k) In the event of a conflict between this Section and
23 the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code or the
24 Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Confidentiality
25 Act, the provisions of this Section shall govern.
26 (l) This amendatory Act shall apply to all persons who
27 have been found not guilty by reason of insanity and who are
28 presently committed to the Department of Mental Health and
29 Developmental Disabilities (now the Department of Human
30 Services).
31 (m) The Clerk of the court shall, after the entry of an
32 order of transfer to a non-secure setting of the Department
33 of Human Services or discharge or conditional release,
34 transmit a certified copy of the order to the Department of
-79- LRB9009448RCksam
1 Human Services, and the sheriff of the county from which the
2 defendant was admitted. In cases where the arrest of the
3 defendant or the commission of the offense took place in any
4 municipality with a population of more than 25,000 persons,
5 the Clerk of the court shall also transmit a certified copy
6 of the order of discharge or conditional release to the
7 proper law enforcement agency for said municipality provided
8 the municipality has requested such notice in writing.
