8 Sec. 5-130. Excluded jurisdiction.
9 (1) (a) The definition of delinquent minor under Section
10 5-120 of this Article shall not apply to any minor who at the
11 time of an offense was at least 15 years of age and who is
12 charged with first degree murder, aggravated criminal sexual

21 may proceed on any lesser charge or charges, but only in
22 Juvenile Court under the provisions of this Article. The
23 State's Attorney may proceed under the Criminal Code of 1961
24 on a lesser charge if before trial the minor defendant
25 knowingly and with advice of counsel waives, in writing, his
26 or her right to have the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
27 (ii) If before trial or plea an information or
28 indictment is filed that includes one or more charges
29 specified in paragraph (a) of this subsection (1) and

5 any or all dispositions prescribed for that offense under
6 Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
7 (ii) If after trial or plea the court finds that the
8 minor committed an offense not covered by paragraph (a) of
9 this subsection (1), that finding shall not invalidate the
10 verdict or the prosecution of the minor under the criminal
11 laws of the State; however, unless the State requests a
12 hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
13 V of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
14 under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article. To request a
15 hearing, the State must file a written motion within 10 days
