2determination regarding the existence of urgent and immediate
3necessity. The court shall consider the psychological
4evaluation in conjunction with the other factors identified in
5subdivision (2) of Section 5-501 of this Act in order to make a
6de novo determination regarding whether it is a matter of
7immediate and urgent necessity for the protection of the minor
8or of the person or property of another that the minor be
9detained or placed in a shelter care facility. In addition to
10the pre-trial conditions found in Section 5-505 of this Act,

15risk to himself, herself, or others, the court shall issue an
16order restraining the student from entering the property of the
17school if he or she has been suspended or expelled from the
18school as a result of possessing a firearm. The order shall
19restrain the student from entering the school and school owned
20or leased property, including any conveyance owned, leased, or
21contracted by the school to transport students to or from
22school or a school-related activity. The order shall remain in

7        (a) If a petition alleges commission by a minor 13
8    years of age or over of an act that constitutes a crime
9    under the laws of this State and, on motion of the State's
10    Attorney to permit prosecution of the minor under the
11    criminal laws, a Juvenile Judge assigned by the Chief Judge
12    of the Circuit to hear and determine those motions, after
13    hearing but before commencement of the trial, finds that
14    there is probable cause to believe that the allegations in
15    the motion are true and that it is not in the best
16    interests of the public to proceed under this Act, the
17    court may enter an order permitting prosecution under the

18the petition.
19    (6) When criminal prosecution is permitted under this
20Section and a finding of guilt is entered, the criminal court
21shall sentence the minor under Section 5-4.5-105 of the Unified

6the proceeding as an extended jurisdiction juvenile
7prosecution and the petition alleges the commission by a minor
813 years of age or older of any offense which would be a felony
9if committed by an adult, and, if the juvenile judge assigned
10to hear and determine petitions to designate the proceeding as
11an extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution determines that
12there is probable cause to believe that the allegations in the
13petition and motion are true, there is a rebuttable presumption
14that the proceeding shall be designated as an extended
15jurisdiction juvenile proceeding.
16    (b) The judge shall enter an order designating the
17proceeding as an extended jurisdiction juvenile proceeding
18unless the judge makes a finding based on clear and convincing
19evidence that sentencing under the Chapter V of the Unified
20Code of Corrections would not be appropriate for the minor
21based on an evaluation of the following factors:
22        (i) the age of the minor;
23        (ii) the history of the minor, including:
24            (A) any previous delinquent or criminal history of
25        the minor,

16    justice system including whether there are facilities or
17    programs, or both, particularly available in the juvenile
18    system;
19        (v) whether the security of the public requires
20    sentencing under Chapter V of the Unified Code of
21    Corrections:
22            (A) the minor's history of services, including the
23        minor's willingness to participate meaningfully in
24        available services;
25            (B) whether there is a reasonable likelihood that

HB3718 Enrolled- 28 -LRB099 11130 RLC 31593 b

1        the juvenile court's jurisdiction;
2            (C) the adequacy of the punishment or services.
3    In considering these factors, the court shall give greater
4weight to the seriousness of the alleged offense, and the
5minor's prior record of delinquency than to other factors
6listed in this subsection.
7    (2) Procedures for extended jurisdiction juvenile
8prosecutions. The State's Attorney may file a written motion
9for a proceeding to be designated as an extended juvenile
10jurisdiction prior to commencement of trial. Notice of the
11motion shall be in compliance with Section 5-530. When the
12State's Attorney files a written motion that a proceeding be
13designated an extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution, the
14court shall commence a hearing within 30 days of the filing of
15the motion for designation, unless good cause is shown by the
16prosecution or the minor as to why the hearing could not be
17held within this time period. If the court finds good cause has
18been demonstrated, then the hearing shall be held within 60
19days of the filing of the motion. The hearings shall be open to
20the public unless the judge finds that the hearing should be
21closed for the protection of any party, victim or witness. If
22the Juvenile Judge assigned to hear and determine a motion to
23designate an extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution
24determines that there is probable cause to believe that the
25allegations in the petition and motion are true the court shall
26grant the motion for designation. Information used by the court

1in its findings or stated in or offered in connection with this
2Section may be by way of proffer based on reliable information
3offered by the State or the minor. All evidence shall be
4admissible if it is relevant and reliable regardless of whether
5it would be admissible under the rules of evidence.
6    (3) Trial. A minor who is subject of an extended
7jurisdiction juvenile prosecution has the right to trial by
8jury. Any trial under this Section shall be open to the public.
9    (4) Sentencing. If an extended jurisdiction juvenile
10prosecution under subsection (1) results in a guilty plea, a
11verdict of guilty, or a finding of guilt, the court shall
12impose the following:
13        (i) one or more juvenile sentences under Section 5-710;
14    and
15        (ii) an adult criminal sentence in accordance with the
16    provisions of Section 5-4.5-105 of the Unified Code of
17    Corrections Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
18    the execution of which shall be stayed on the condition
19    that the offender not violate the provisions of the
20    juvenile sentence.
21Any sentencing hearing under this Section shall be open to the
22public.
23    (5) If, after an extended jurisdiction juvenile
24prosecution trial, a minor is convicted of a lesser-included
25offense or of an offense that the State's Attorney did not
26designate as an extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution,

 

 

HB3718 Enrolled- 30 -LRB099 11130 RLC 31593 b

1the State's Attorney may file a written motion, within 10 days
2of the finding of guilt, that the minor be sentenced as an
3extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution offender. The court
4shall rule on this motion using the factors found in paragraph
5(1)(b) of Section 5-805. If the court denies the State's
6Attorney's motion for sentencing under the extended
7jurisdiction juvenile prosecution provision, the court shall
8proceed to sentence the minor under Section 5-710.
9    (6) When it appears that a minor convicted in an extended
10jurisdiction juvenile prosecution under subsection (1) has
11violated the conditions of his or her sentence, or is alleged
12to have committed a new offense upon the filing of a petition
13to revoke the stay, the court may, without notice, issue a
14warrant for the arrest of the minor. After a hearing, if the
15court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that the minor
16committed a new offense, the court shall order execution of the
17previously imposed adult criminal sentence. After a hearing, if
18the court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that the
19minor committed a violation of his or her sentence other than
20by a new offense, the court may order execution of the
21previously imposed adult criminal sentence or may continue him
22or her on the existing juvenile sentence with or without
23modifying or enlarging the conditions. Upon revocation of the
24stay of the adult criminal sentence and imposition of that
25sentence, the minor's extended jurisdiction juvenile status
26shall be terminated. The on-going jurisdiction over the minor's

1case shall be assumed by the adult criminal court and juvenile
2court jurisdiction shall be terminated and a report of the
3imposition of the adult sentence shall be sent to the
4Department of State Police.
5    (7) Upon successful completion of the juvenile sentence the
6court shall vacate the adult criminal sentence.
7    (8) Nothing in this Section precludes the State from filing
8a motion for transfer under Section 5-805.
