Sec. 5-615. Continuance under supervision.
(1) The court may enter an order of continuance under supervision for an
offense other than first degree murder, a Class X felony or a forcible felony: (a) upon an admission or stipulation by the appropriate respondent or minor respondent |
| of the facts supporting the petition and before the court makes a finding of delinquency, and in the absence of objection made in open court by the minor, the minor's parent, guardian, or legal custodian, the minor's attorney or the State's Attorney; or
|
|
(b) upon a finding of delinquency and after considering the circumstances of the
|
| offense and the history, character, and condition of the minor, if the court is of the opinion that:
|
|
(i) the minor is not likely to commit further crimes;
(ii) the minor and the public would be best served if the minor were not to receive
|
|
(iii) in the best interests of justice an order of continuance under supervision is
|
| more appropriate than a sentence otherwise permitted under this Act.
|
|
(2) (Blank).
(3) Nothing in this Section limits the power of the court to order a
continuance of the hearing for the production of additional evidence or for any
other proper reason.
(4) When a hearing where a minor is alleged to be a delinquent is
continued
pursuant to this Section, the period of continuance under supervision may not

any time if warranted by the conduct of the minor and the ends of justice or vacate the finding of delinquency or both.
(5) When a hearing where a minor is alleged to be delinquent is continued
pursuant to this Section, the court may, as conditions of the continuance under

|

|
|
(p) comply with curfew requirements as designated by the court;

|
| persons or particular types of persons, including but not limited to members of street gangs and drug users or dealers;

|
| street gang removed from the minor's body;
|
|
(s) refrain from having in the minor's body the presence of any illicit drug prohibited
|
| by the Cannabis Control Act, the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act, unless prescribed by a physician, and submit samples of the minor's blood or urine or both for tests to determine the presence of any illicit drug; or
|
|
(t) comply with any other conditions as may be ordered by the court.
(6) A minor whose case is continued under supervision under subsection (5)
shall be given a certificate setting forth the conditions imposed by the court.
Those conditions may be reduced, enlarged, or modified by the court on motion
of the probation officer or on its own motion, or that of the State's Attorney,
or, at the request of the minor after notice and hearing.
(7) If a petition is filed charging a violation of a condition of the
continuance under supervision, the court shall conduct a hearing. If the court
finds that a condition of supervision has not been fulfilled, the court may
proceed to findings, adjudication, and disposition or adjudication and disposition. The filing of a petition
for violation of a condition of the continuance under supervision shall toll
the period of continuance under supervision until the final determination of
the charge, and the term of the continuance under supervision shall not run
until the hearing and disposition of the petition for violation; provided
where the petition alleges conduct that does not constitute a criminal offense,
the hearing must be held within 30 days of the filing of the petition unless a
delay shall continue the tolling of the period of continuance under supervision
for the period of
the delay.
(8) When a hearing in which a minor is alleged to be a delinquent for
reasons that include a violation of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012
is continued under this Section, the court shall, as a condition of the
continuance under supervision, require the minor to perform community service
for not less than 30 and not more than 120 hours, if community service is
available in the jurisdiction. The community service shall include, but need
not be limited to, the cleanup and repair of the damage that was caused by the
alleged violation or similar damage to property located in the municipality or
county in which the alleged violation occurred. The condition may be in
addition to any other condition.
(8.5) When a hearing in which a minor is alleged to be a delinquent for
reasons
that include a violation of Section 3.02 or Section 3.03 of the Humane Care for
Animals Act or paragraph (d) of subsection (1)
of Section
21-1 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or paragraph (4) of subsection (a) of Section 21-1 or the Criminal Code of 2012 is continued under this Section, the court
shall, as a
condition of the continuance under supervision, require the minor to undergo
medical or
psychiatric treatment rendered by a psychiatrist or psychological treatment
rendered by a
clinical psychologist. The condition may be in addition to any other
condition.
(9) When a hearing in which a minor is alleged to be a delinquent is
continued under this Section, the court, before continuing the case, shall make
a finding whether the offense alleged to have been committed either: (i) was
related to or in furtherance of the activities of an organized gang or was
motivated by the minor's membership in or allegiance to an organized gang, or
(ii) is a violation of paragraph (13) of subsection (a) of Section 12-2 or paragraph (2) of subsection (c) of Section 12-2 of the
Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, a violation of any Section of Article 24 of the
Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, or a violation of any statute that involved the unlawful
use of a firearm. If the court determines the question in the affirmative the
court shall, as a condition of the continuance under supervision and as part of
or in addition to any other condition of the supervision,
require the minor to perform community service for not less than 30 hours,
provided that community service is available in the
jurisdiction and is funded and approved by the county board of the county where
the offense was committed. The community service shall include, but need not
be limited to, the cleanup and repair of any damage caused by an alleged
violation of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 and similar damage to
property located in the municipality or county in which the alleged violation
occurred. When possible and reasonable, the community service shall be
performed in the minor's neighborhood. For the purposes of this Section,
"organized gang" has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 10 of the Illinois
Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus Prevention Act.
(10) The court shall impose upon a minor placed on supervision, as a
condition of the supervision, a fee of $50 for each month of supervision
ordered by the court, unless after determining the inability of the minor
placed on supervision to pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser amount. The
court may not impose the fee on a minor who is placed in the guardianship or custody of the Department of Children and Family Services under
this Act while the minor is in placement. The fee shall be imposed only upon a
minor who is actively supervised by the probation and court services
department. A court may order the parent, guardian, or legal custodian of the
minor to pay some or all of the fee on the minor's behalf.

Inability to pay shall not be grounds to object to the minor's placement on a continuance under supervision.
