2     battery with a firearm, or any predecessor or successor
3     offenses with the same or substantially the same elements,
4     or any inchoate offenses relating to the foregoing
5     offenses. No inmate shall be eligible for the additional
6     good conduct credit under this paragraph (4) who (i) has
7     previously received increased good conduct credit under
8     this paragraph (4) and has subsequently been convicted of a
9     felony, or (ii) has previously served more than one prior
10     sentence of imprisonment for a felony in an adult
11     correctional facility.
12         Educational, vocational, substance abuse and
13     correctional industry programs under which good conduct
14     credit may be increased under this paragraph (4) and
15     paragraph (4.1) of this subsection (a) shall be evaluated
16     by the Department on the basis of documented standards. The
17     Department shall report the results of these evaluations to
18     the Governor and the General Assembly by September 30th of
19     each year. The reports shall include data relating to the
20     recidivism rate among program participants.
21         Availability of these programs shall be subject to the
22     limits of fiscal resources appropriated by the General
23     Assembly for these purposes. Eligible inmates who are
24     denied immediate admission shall be placed on a waiting
25     list under criteria established by the Department. The
26     inability of any inmate to become engaged in any such

 

 

HB5019 - 11 - LRB096 17401 RLC 32754 b

1     programs by reason of insufficient program resources or for
2     any other reason established under the rules and
3     regulations of the Department shall not be deemed a cause
4     of action under which the Department or any employee or
5     agent of the Department shall be liable for damages to the
6     inmate.
7         (4.1) The rules and regulations shall also provide that
8     an additional 60 days of good conduct credit shall be
9     awarded to any prisoner who passes the high school level
10     Test of General Educational Development (GED) while the
11     prisoner is incarcerated. The good conduct credit awarded
12     under this paragraph (4.1) shall be in addition to, and
13     shall not affect, the award of good conduct under any other
14     paragraph of this Section, but shall also be pursuant to
15     the guidelines and restrictions set forth in paragraph (4)
16     of subsection (a) of this Section. The good conduct credit
17     provided for in this paragraph shall be available only to
18     those prisoners who have not previously earned a high
19     school diploma or a GED. If, after an award of the GED good
20     conduct credit has been made and the Department determines
21     that the prisoner was not eligible, then the award shall be
22     revoked.
23         (4.5) The rules and regulations on early release shall
24     also provide that when the court's sentencing order
25     recommends a prisoner for substance abuse treatment and the
26     crime was committed on or after September 1, 2003 (the

 

 

HB5019 - 12 - LRB096 17401 RLC 32754 b

1     effective date of Public Act 93-354), the prisoner shall
2     receive no good conduct credit awarded under clause (3) of
3     this subsection (a) unless he or she participates in and
4     completes a substance abuse treatment program. The
5     Director may waive the requirement to participate in or
6     complete a substance abuse treatment program and award the
7     good conduct credit in specific instances if the prisoner
8     is not a good candidate for a substance abuse treatment
9     program for medical, programming, or operational reasons.
10     Availability of substance abuse treatment shall be subject
11     to the limits of fiscal resources appropriated by the
12     General Assembly for these purposes. If treatment is not
13     available and the requirement to participate and complete
14     the treatment has not been waived by the Director, the
15     prisoner shall be placed on a waiting list under criteria
16     established by the Department. The Director may allow a
17     prisoner placed on a waiting list to participate in and
18     complete a substance abuse education class or attend
19     substance abuse self-help meetings in lieu of a substance
20     abuse treatment program. A prisoner on a waiting list who
21     is not placed in a substance abuse program prior to release
22     may be eligible for a waiver and receive good conduct
23     credit under clause (3) of this subsection (a) at the
24     discretion of the Director.
25         (4.6) The rules and regulations on early release shall
26     also provide that a prisoner who has been convicted of a

 

 

HB5019 - 13 - LRB096 17401 RLC 32754 b

1     sex offense as defined in Section 2 of the Sex Offender
2     Registration Act shall receive no good conduct credit
3     unless he or she either has successfully completed or is
4     participating in sex offender treatment as defined by the
5     Sex Offender Management Board. However, prisoners who are
6     waiting to receive such treatment, but who are unable to do
7     so due solely to the lack of resources on the part of the
8     Department, may, at the Director's sole discretion, be
9     awarded good conduct credit at such rate as the Director
10     shall determine.
11         (5) (Blank) Whenever the Department is to release any
12     inmate earlier than it otherwise would because of a grant
13     of good conduct credit for meritorious service given at any
14     time during the term, the Department shall give reasonable
15     advance notice of the impending release to the State's
16     Attorney of the county where the prosecution of the inmate
17     took place.
18     (b) Whenever a person is or has been committed under
19 several convictions, with separate sentences, the sentences
20 shall be construed under Section 5-8-4 in granting and
21 forfeiting of good time.
22     (c) The Department shall prescribe rules and regulations
23 for revoking good conduct credit, or suspending or reducing the
24 rate of accumulation of good conduct credit for specific rule
25 violations, during imprisonment. These rules and regulations
26 shall provide that no inmate may be penalized more than one

 

 

HB5019 - 14 - LRB096 17401 RLC 32754 b

1 year of good conduct credit for any one infraction.
2     When the Department seeks to revoke, suspend or reduce the
3 rate of accumulation of any good conduct credits for an alleged
4 infraction of its rules, it shall bring charges therefor
5 against the prisoner sought to be so deprived of good conduct
6 credits before the Prisoner Review Board as provided in
7 subparagraph (a)(4) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code, if the
8 amount of credit at issue exceeds 30 days or when during any 12
9 month period, the cumulative amount of credit revoked exceeds
10 30 days except where the infraction is committed or discovered
11 within 60 days of scheduled release. In those cases, the
12 Department of Corrections may revoke up to 30 days of good
13 conduct credit. The Board may subsequently approve the
14 revocation of additional good conduct credit, if the Department
15 seeks to revoke good conduct credit in excess of 30 days.
16 However, the Board shall not be empowered to review the
17 Department's decision with respect to the loss of 30 days of
18 good conduct credit within any calendar year for any prisoner
19 or to increase any penalty beyond the length requested by the
20 Department.
21     The Director of the Department of Corrections, in
22 appropriate cases, may restore up to 30 days good conduct
23 credits which have been revoked, suspended or reduced. Any
24 restoration of good conduct credits in excess of 30 days shall
25 be subject to review by the Prisoner Review Board. However, the
26 Board may not restore good conduct credit in excess of the

 

 

HB5019 - 15 - LRB096 17401 RLC 32754 b

1 amount requested by the Director.
2     Nothing contained in this Section shall prohibit the
3 Prisoner Review Board from ordering, pursuant to Section
4 3-3-9(a)(3)(i)(B), that a prisoner serve up to one year of the
5 sentence imposed by the court that was not served due to the
6 accumulation of good conduct credit.
7     (d) If a lawsuit is filed by a prisoner in an Illinois or
8 federal court against the State, the Department of Corrections,
9 or the Prisoner Review Board, or against any of their officers
10 or employees, and the court makes a specific finding that a
11 pleading, motion, or other paper filed by the prisoner is
12 frivolous, the Department of Corrections shall conduct a
13 hearing to revoke up to 180 days of good conduct credit by
14 bringing charges against the prisoner sought to be deprived of
15 the good conduct credits before the Prisoner Review Board as
16 provided in subparagraph (a)(8) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code.
17 If the prisoner has not accumulated 180 days of good conduct
18 credit at the time of the finding, then the Prisoner Review
19 Board may revoke all good conduct credit accumulated by the
20 prisoner.
21     For purposes of this subsection (d):
22         (1) "Frivolous" means that a pleading, motion, or other
23     filing which purports to be a legal document filed by a
24     prisoner in his or her lawsuit meets any or all of the
25     following criteria:
26             (A) it lacks an arguable basis either in law or in

 

 

HB5019 - 16 - LRB096 17401 RLC 32754 b

1         fact;
2             (B) it is being presented for any improper purpose,
3         such as to harass or to cause unnecessary delay or
4         needless increase in the cost of litigation;
5             (C) the claims, defenses, and other legal
6         contentions therein are not warranted by existing law
7         or by a nonfrivolous argument for the extension,
8         modification, or reversal of existing law or the

8 good faith effort to obtain financial aid or pay for the
9 educational training shall not be deemed a wilful failure to
10 comply. The Prisoner Review Board shall recommit the defendant
11 whose mandatory supervised release term has been revoked under
12 this subsection (j-5) as provided in Section 3-3-9. This
13 subsection (j-5) does not apply to a defendant who has a high
