The inability of any | 11 | | inmate to become engaged in any such programs
by reason of | 12 | | insufficient program resources or for any other reason
| 13 | | established under the rules and regulations of the Department | 14 | | shall not be
deemed a cause of action under which the | 15 | | Department or any employee or

However, prisoners who are waiting to | 7 | | receive treatment, but who are unable to do so due solely to | 8 | | the lack of resources on the part of the Department, may, at | 9 | | the Director's sole discretion, be awarded sentence credit at | 10 | | a rate as the Director shall determine. | 11 | | (4.7) On or after January 1, 2018 ( the effective date of | 12 | | Public Act 100-3) this amendatory Act of the 100th General | 13 | | Assembly , sentence credit under paragraph (3), (4), or (4.1) | 14 | | of this subsection (a) may be awarded to a prisoner who is | 15 | | serving a sentence for an offense described in paragraph (2), | 16 | | (2.3), (2.4), (2.5), or (2.6) for credit earned on or after | 17 | | January 1, 2018 ( the effective date of Public Act 100-3) this | 18 | | amendatory Act of the 100th General Assembly ; provided, the | 19 | | award of the credits under this paragraph (4.7) shall not | 20 | | reduce the sentence of the prisoner to less than the following | 21 | | amounts: | 22 | | (i) 85% of his or her sentence if the prisoner is | 23 | | required to serve 85% of his or her sentence; or | 24 | | (ii) 60% of his or her sentence if the prisoner is | 25 | | required to serve 75% of his or her sentence, except if the | 26 | | prisoner is serving a sentence for gunrunning his or her |
| | | SB2917 | - 18 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | sentence shall not be reduced to less than 75%. | 2 | | (iii) 100% of his or her sentence if the prisoner is | 3 | | required to serve 100% of his or her sentence. | 4 | | (5) Whenever the Department is to release any inmate | 5 | | earlier than it
otherwise would because of a grant of earned | 6 | | sentence credit under paragraph (3) of subsection (a) of this | 7 | | Section given at any time during the term, the Department | 8 | | shall give
reasonable notice of the impending release not less | 9 | | than 14 days prior to the date of the release to the State's
| 10 | | Attorney of the county where the prosecution of the inmate | 11 | | took place, and if applicable, the State's Attorney of the | 12 | | county into which the inmate will be released. The Department | 13 | | must also make identification information and a recent photo | 14 | | of the inmate being released accessible on the Internet by | 15 | | means of a hyperlink labeled "Community Notification of Inmate | 16 | | Early Release" on the Department's World Wide Web homepage.
| 17 | | The identification information shall include the inmate's: | 18 | | name, any known alias, date of birth, physical | 19 | | characteristics, commitment offense , and county where | 20 | | conviction was imposed. The identification information shall | 21 | | be placed on the website within 3 days of the inmate's release | 22 | | and the information may not be removed until either: | 23 | | completion of the first year of mandatory supervised release | 24 | | or return of the inmate to custody of the Department.
| 25 | | (b) Whenever a person is or has been committed under
| 26 | | several convictions, with separate sentences, the sentences
|
| | | SB2917 | - 19 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | shall be construed under Section 5-8-4 in granting and
| 2 | | forfeiting of sentence credit.
| 3 | | (c) The Department shall prescribe rules and regulations

the rate of accumulation of | 8 | | sentence credit for specific
rule violations, during | 9 | | imprisonment. These rules and regulations
shall provide that | 10 | | no inmate may be penalized more than one
year of sentence | 11 | | credit for any one infraction.
| 12 | | When the Department seeks to revoke, suspend , or reduce
| 13 | | the rate of accumulation of any sentence credits for
an | 14 | | alleged infraction of its rules, it shall bring charges
| 15 | | therefor against the prisoner sought to be so deprived of
| 16 | | sentence credits before the Prisoner Review Board as
provided | 17 | | in subparagraph (a)(4) of Section 3-3-2 of this
Code, if the | 18 | | amount of credit at issue exceeds 30 days or

credit | 20 | | revoked exceeds 30 days except where the infraction is | 21 | | committed
or discovered within 60 days of scheduled release. | 22 | | In those cases,
the Department of Corrections may revoke up to | 23 | | 30 days of sentence credit.
The Board may subsequently approve | 24 | | the revocation of additional sentence credit, if the | 25 | | Department seeks to revoke sentence credit in
excess of 30 | 26 | | days. However, the Board shall not be empowered to review the
|
| | | SB2917 | - 20 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | Department's decision with respect to the loss of 30 days of | 2 | | sentence
credit within any calendar year for any prisoner or | 3 | | to increase any penalty
beyond the length requested by the | 4 | | Department.
| 5 | | The Director of the Department of Corrections, in | 6 | | appropriate cases, may
restore up to 30 days of sentence | 7 | | credits which have been revoked, suspended ,
or reduced. Any | 8 | | restoration of sentence credits in excess of 30 days shall
be | 9 | | subject to review by the Prisoner Review Board. However, the | 10 | | Board may not
restore sentence credit in excess of the amount | 11 | | requested by the Director.
| 12 | | Nothing contained in this Section shall prohibit the | 13 | | Prisoner Review Board
from ordering, pursuant to Section | 14 | | 3-3-9(a)(3)(i)(B), that a prisoner serve up
to one year of the | 15 | | sentence imposed by the court that was not served due to the
| 16 | | accumulation of sentence credit.
| 17 | | (d) If a lawsuit is filed by a prisoner in an Illinois or | 18 | | federal court
against the State, the Department of | 19 | | Corrections, or the Prisoner Review Board,
or against any of
| 20 | | their officers or employees, and the court makes a specific | 21 | | finding that a
pleading, motion, or other paper filed by the | 22 | | prisoner is frivolous, the
Department of Corrections shall | 23 | | conduct a hearing to revoke up to
180 days of sentence credit | 24 | | by bringing charges against the prisoner
sought to be deprived | 25 | | of the sentence credits before the Prisoner Review
Board as | 26 | | provided in subparagraph (a)(8) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code.
|
| | | SB2917 | - 21 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | If the prisoner has not accumulated 180 days of sentence | 2 | | credit at the

| 20 | | (D) the allegations and other factual contentions | 21 | | do not have

or

determined by the standards of the Department, | 18 | | shall receive [ one day ] of sentence credit for each day in | 19 | | which that prisoner is engaged in the activities described in | 20 | | this paragraph.
The rules and regulations shall also provide | 21 | | that sentence credit may be provided to an inmate who was held | 22 | | in pre-trial detention prior to his or her current commitment | 23 | | to the Department of Corrections and successfully completed a | 24 | | full-time, 60-day or longer substance abuse program, | 25 | | educational program, behavior modification program, life | 26 | | skills course, or re-entry planning provided by the county |

The rules and regulations shall also provide | 5 | | that sentence credit may be provided to an inmate who is in | 6 | | compliance with programming requirements in an adult | 7 | | transition center.
| 8 | | (B) The Department shall award sentence credit under this | 9 | | paragraph (4) accumulated prior to January 1, 2020 (the | 10 | | effective date of Public Act 101-440) in an amount specified | 11 | | in subparagraph (C) of this paragraph (4) to an inmate serving | 12 | | a sentence for an offense committed prior to June 19, 1998, if | 13 | | the Department determines that the inmate is entitled to this | 14 | | sentence credit, based upon: | 15 | | (i) documentation provided by the Department that the | 16 | | inmate engaged in any full-time substance abuse programs, | 17 | | correctional industry assignments, educational programs, | 18 | | behavior modification programs, life skills courses, or | 19 | | re-entry planning provided by the Department under this | 20 | | paragraph (4) and satisfactorily completed the assigned | 21 | | program as determined by the standards of the Department | 22 | | during the inmate's current term of incarceration; or | 23 | | (ii) the inmate's own testimony in the form of an | 24 | | affidavit or documentation, or a third party's | 25 | | documentation or testimony in the form of an affidavit | 26 | | that the inmate likely engaged in any full-time substance |

|
| 1 | | abuse programs, correctional industry assignments, | 2 | | educational programs, behavior modification programs, life | 3 | | skills courses, or re-entry planning provided by the | 4 | | Department under paragraph (4) and satisfactorily | 5 | | completed the assigned program as determined by the | 6 | | standards of the Department during the inmate's current | 7 | | term of incarceration. | 8 | | (C) If the inmate can provide documentation that he or she | 9 | | is entitled to sentence credit under subparagraph (B) in | 10 | | excess of 45 days of participation in those programs, the | 11 | | inmate shall receive 90 days of sentence credit. If the inmate | 12 | | cannot provide documentation of more than 45 days of | 13 | | participation in those programs, the inmate shall receive 45 | 14 | | days of sentence credit. In the event of a disagreement | 15 | | between the Department and the inmate as to the amount of | 16 | | credit accumulated under subparagraph (B), if the Department | 17 | | provides documented proof of a lesser amount of days of | 18 | | participation in those programs, that proof shall control. If | 19 | | the Department provides no documentary proof, the inmate's | 20 | | proof as set forth in clause (ii) of subparagraph (B) shall | 21 | | control as to the amount of sentence credit provided. | 22 | | (D) If the inmate has been convicted of a sex offense as | 23 | | defined in Section 2 of the Sex Offender Registration Act, | 24 | | sentencing credits under subparagraph (B) of this paragraph | 25 | | (4) shall be awarded by the Department only if the conditions | 26 | | set forth in paragraph (4.6) of subsection (a) are satisfied. |
| | | SB2917 | - 35 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | No inmate serving a term of natural life imprisonment shall | 2 | | receive sentence credit under subparagraph (B) of this | 3 | | paragraph (4). | 4 | | Educational, vocational, substance abuse, behavior | 5 | | modification programs, life skills courses, re-entry planning, | 6 | | and correctional
industry programs under which sentence credit | 7 | | may be earned increased under
this paragraph (4) and paragraph | 8 | | (4.1) of this subsection (a) shall be evaluated by the | 9 | | Department on the basis of
documented standards. The | 10 | | Department shall report the results of these
evaluations to | 11 | | the Governor and the General Assembly by September 30th of | 12 | | each
year. The reports shall include data relating to the | 13 | | recidivism rate among
program participants.
| 14 | | Availability of these programs shall be subject to the
| 15 | | limits of fiscal resources appropriated by the General | 16 | | Assembly for these
purposes. Eligible inmates who are denied | 17 | | immediate admission shall be
placed on a waiting list under | 18 | | criteria established by the Department. The rules and | 19 | | regulations shall provide that a prisoner who has been placed | 20 | | on a waiting list but is transferred for non-disciplinary | 21 | | reasons before beginning a program shall receive priority | 22 | | placement on the waitlist for appropriate programs at the new | 23 | | facility.
The inability of any inmate to become engaged in any | 24 | | such programs
by reason of insufficient program resources or | 25 | | for any other reason
established under the rules and | 26 | | regulations of the Department shall not be
deemed a cause of |
| | | SB2917 | - 36 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | action under which the Department or any employee or
agent of | 2 | | the Department shall be liable for damages to the inmate.

| 13 | | (4.1) Except as provided in paragraph (4.7) of this | 14 | | subsection (a), the rules and regulations shall also provide | 15 | | that an additional 90 days of sentence credit shall be awarded | 16 | | to any prisoner who passes high school equivalency testing | 17 | | while the prisoner is committed to the Department of | 18 | | Corrections. The sentence credit awarded under this paragraph | 19 | | (4.1) shall be in addition to, and shall not affect, the award | 20 | | of sentence credit under any other paragraph of this Section, | 21 | | but shall also be pursuant to the guidelines and restrictions | 22 | | set forth in paragraph (4) of subsection (a) of this Section.
| 23 | | The sentence credit provided for in this paragraph shall be | 24 | | available only to those prisoners who have not previously | 25 | | earned a high school diploma or a high school equivalency | 26 | | certificate. If, after an award of the high school equivalency |
| | | SB2917 | - 37 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | testing sentence credit has been made, the Department | 2 | | determines that the prisoner was not eligible, then the award | 3 | | shall be revoked.
The Department may also award 90 days of | 4 | | sentence credit to any committed person who passed high school | 5 | | equivalency testing while he or she was held in pre-trial | 6 | | detention prior to the current commitment to the Department of | 7 | | Corrections. Except as provided in paragraph (4.7) of this | 8 | | subsection (a), the rules and regulations shall provide that | 9 | | an additional 120 days of sentence credit shall be awarded to | 10 | | any prisoner who obtains an a associate degree while the | 11 | | prisoner is committed to the Department of Corrections, | 12 | | regardless of the date that the associate degree was obtained, | 13 | | including if prior to July 1, 2021 ( the effective date of | 14 | | Public Act 101-652) this amendatory Act of the 101st General | 15 | | Assembly . The sentence credit awarded under this paragraph | 16 | | (4.1) shall be in addition to, and shall not affect, the award | 17 | | of sentence credit under any other paragraph of this Section, | 18 | | but shall also be under the guidelines and restrictions set | 19 | | forth in paragraph (4) of subsection (a) of this Section. The | 20 | | sentence credit provided for in this paragraph (4.1) shall be | 21 | | available only to those prisoners who have not previously | 22 | | earned an associate degree prior to the current commitment to | 23 | | the Department of Corrections.

The Department may also award 120 |
| | | SB2917 | - 38 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | days of sentence credit to any committed person who earned an | 2 | | associate degree while he or she was held in pre-trial | 3 | | detention prior to the current commitment to the Department of | 4 | | Corrections. | 5 | | Except as provided in paragraph (4.7) of this subsection | 6 | | (a), the rules and regulations shall provide that an | 7 | | additional 180 days of sentence credit shall be awarded to any | 8 | | prisoner who obtains a bachelor's degree while the prisoner is | 9 | | committed to the Department of Corrections. The sentence | 10 | | credit awarded under this paragraph (4.1) shall be in addition | 11 | | to, and shall not affect, the award of sentence credit under | 12 | | any other paragraph of this Section, but shall also be under | 13 | | the guidelines and restrictions set forth in paragraph (4) of | 14 | | this subsection (a). The sentence credit provided for in this | 15 | | paragraph shall be available only to those prisoners who have | 16 | | not earned a bachelor's degree prior to the current commitment | 17 | | to the Department of Corrections. If, after an award of the | 18 | | bachelor's degree sentence credit has been made, the | 19 | | Department determines that the prisoner was not eligible, then | 20 | | the award shall be revoked. The Department may also award 180 | 21 | | days of sentence credit to any committed person who earned a | 22 | | bachelor's degree while he or she was held in pre-trial | 23 | | detention prior to the current commitment to the Department of | 24 | | Corrections. | 25 | | Except as provided in paragraph (4.7) of this subsection | 26 | | (a), the rules and regulations shall provide that an |
| | | SB2917 | - 39 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | additional 180 days of sentence credit shall be awarded to any | 2 | | prisoner who obtains a master's or professional degree while | 3 | | the prisoner is committed to the Department of Corrections. | 4 | | The sentence credit awarded under this paragraph (4.1) shall | 5 | | be in addition to, and shall not affect, the award of sentence | 6 | | credit under any other paragraph of this Section, but shall | 7 | | also be under the guidelines and restrictions set forth in | 8 | | paragraph (4) of this subsection (a). The sentence credit | 9 | | provided for in this paragraph shall be available only to | 10 | | those prisoners who have not previously earned a master's or | 11 | | professional degree prior to the current commitment to the | 12 | | Department of Corrections. If, after an award of the master's | 13 | | or professional degree sentence credit has been made, the | 14 | | Department determines that the prisoner was not eligible, then | 15 | | the award shall be revoked. The Department may also award 180 | 16 | | days of sentence credit to any committed person who earned a | 17 | | master's or professional degree while he or she was held in | 18 | | pre-trial detention prior to the current commitment to the | 19 | | Department of Corrections. | 20 | | (4.2) The rules and regulations shall also provide that | 21 | | any prisoner engaged in self-improvement programs, volunteer | 22 | | work, or work assignments that are not otherwise eligible | 23 | | activities under paragraph section (4), shall receive up to | 24 | | 0.5 days of sentence credit for each day in which the prisoner | 25 | | is engaged in activities described in this paragraph. | 26 | | (4.5) The rules and regulations on sentence credit shall |
| | | SB2917 | - 40 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | also provide that
when the court's sentencing order recommends | 2 | | a prisoner for substance abuse treatment and the
crime was | 3 | | committed on or after September 1, 2003 (the effective date of
| 4 | | Public Act 93-354), the prisoner shall receive no sentence | 5 | | credit awarded under clause (3) of this subsection (a) unless | 6 | | he or she participates in and
completes a substance abuse | 7 | | treatment program. The Director may waive the requirement to | 8 | | participate in or complete a substance abuse treatment program | 9 | | in specific instances if the prisoner is not a good candidate | 10 | | for a substance abuse treatment program for medical, | 11 | | programming, or operational reasons. Availability of
substance | 12 | | abuse treatment shall be subject to the limits of fiscal | 13 | | resources
appropriated by the General Assembly for these | 14 | | purposes. If treatment is not
available and the requirement to | 15 | | participate and complete the treatment has not been waived by | 16 | | the Director, the prisoner shall be placed on a waiting list | 17 | | under criteria
established by the Department. The Director may | 18 | | allow a prisoner placed on
a waiting list to participate in and | 19 | | complete a substance abuse education class or attend substance
| 20 | | abuse self-help meetings in lieu of a substance abuse | 21 | | treatment program. A prisoner on a waiting list who is not | 22 | | placed in a substance abuse program prior to release may be | 23 | | eligible for a waiver and receive sentence credit under clause | 24 | | (3) of this subsection (a) at the discretion of the Director.
| 25 | | (4.6) The rules and regulations on sentence credit shall | 26 | | also provide that a prisoner who has been convicted of a sex |
| | | SB2917 | - 41 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | offense as defined in Section 2 of the Sex Offender | 2 | | Registration Act shall receive no sentence credit unless he or | 3 | | she either has successfully completed or is participating in | 4 | | sex offender treatment as defined by the Sex Offender | 5 | | Management Board. However, prisoners who are waiting to | 6 | | receive treatment, but who are unable to do so due solely to | 7 | | the lack of resources on the part of the Department, may, at | 8 | | the Director's sole discretion, be awarded sentence credit at | 9 | | a rate as the Director shall determine. | 10 | | (4.7) On or after January 1, 2018 (the effective date of | 11 | | Public Act 100-3), sentence credit under paragraph (3), (4), | 12 | | or (4.1) of this subsection (a) may be awarded to a prisoner | 13 | | who is serving a sentence for an offense described in | 14 | | paragraph (2), (2.3), (2.4), (2.5), or (2.6) for credit earned | 15 | | on or after January 1, 2018 (the effective date of Public Act | 16 | | 100-3); provided, the award of the credits under this | 17 | | paragraph (4.7) shall not reduce the sentence of the prisoner | 18 | | to less than the following amounts: | 19 | | (i) 85% of his or her sentence if the prisoner is | 20 | | required to serve 85% of his or her sentence; or | 21 | | (ii) 60% of his or her sentence if the prisoner is | 22 | | required to serve 75% of his or her sentence, except if the | 23 | | prisoner is serving a sentence for gunrunning his or her | 24 | | sentence shall not be reduced to less than 75%. | 25 | | (iii) 100% of his or her sentence if the prisoner is | 26 | | required to serve 100% of his or her sentence. |
| | | SB2917 | - 42 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | (4.8) On or after the effective date of this amendatory | 2 | | Act of the 102nd General Assembly, sentence credit under | 3 | | paragraph (3), (4), (4.1), (4.2), or (4.7) of this subsection | 4 | | (a) may not be awarded to a prisoner who is serving a sentence | 5 | | for bringing contraband into a penal institution as described | 6 | | in subsection (a) of Section 31A-1.1 of the Criminal Code of | 7 | | 2012. | 8 | | (5) Whenever the Department is to release any inmate | 9 | | earlier than it
otherwise would because of a grant of earned | 10 | | sentence credit under paragraph (3) of subsection (a) of this | 11 | | Section given at any time during the term, the Department | 12 | | shall give
reasonable notice of the impending release not less | 13 | | than 14 days prior to the date of the release to the State's
| 14 | | Attorney of the county where the prosecution of the inmate | 15 | | took place, and if applicable, the State's Attorney of the | 16 | | county into which the inmate will be released. The Department | 17 | | must also make identification information and a recent photo | 18 | | of the inmate being released accessible on the Internet by | 19 | | means of a hyperlink labeled "Community Notification of Inmate | 20 | | Early Release" on the Department's World Wide Web homepage.
| 21 | | The identification information shall include the inmate's: | 22 | | name, any known alias, date of birth, physical | 23 | | characteristics, commitment offense, and county where | 24 | | conviction was imposed. The identification information shall | 25 | | be placed on the website within 3 days of the inmate's release | 26 | | and the information may not be removed until either: |
| | | SB2917 | - 43 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | completion of the first year of mandatory supervised release | 2 | | or return of the inmate to custody of the Department.
| 3 | | (b) Whenever a person is or has been committed under
| 4 | | several convictions, with separate sentences, the sentences
| 5 | | shall be construed under Section 5-8-4 in granting and
| 6 | | forfeiting of sentence credit.
| 7 | | (c) (1) The Department shall prescribe rules and | 8 | | regulations
for revoking sentence credit, including revoking | 9 | | sentence credit awarded under paragraph (3) of subsection (a) | 10 | | of this Section. The Department shall prescribe rules and | 11 | | regulations establishing and requiring the use of a sanctions | 12 | | matrix for revoking sentence credit. The Department shall | 13 | | prescribe rules and regulations for suspending or reducing
the | 14 | | rate of accumulation of sentence credit for specific
rule | 15 | | violations, during imprisonment. These rules and regulations
| 16 | | shall provide that no inmate may be penalized more than one
| 17 | | year of sentence credit for any one infraction.
| 18 | | (2) When the Department seeks to revoke, suspend, or | 19 | | reduce
the rate of accumulation of any sentence credits for
an | 20 | | alleged infraction of its rules, it shall bring charges
| 21 | | therefor against the prisoner sought to be so deprived of
| 22 | | sentence credits before the Prisoner Review Board as
provided | 23 | | in subparagraph (a)(4) of Section 3-3-2 of this
Code, if the | 24 | | amount of credit at issue exceeds 30 days, whether from one | 25 | | infraction or cumulatively from multiple infractions arising | 26 | | out of a single event, or
when, during any 12-month period, the |
| | | SB2917 | - 44 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | cumulative amount of
credit revoked exceeds 30 days except | 2 | | where the infraction is committed
or discovered within 60 days | 3 | | of scheduled release. In those cases,
the Department of | 4 | | Corrections may revoke up to 30 days of sentence credit.
The | 5 | | Board may subsequently approve the revocation of additional | 6 | | sentence credit, if the Department seeks to revoke sentence | 7 | | credit in
excess of 30 days. However, the Board shall not be | 8 | | empowered to review the
Department's decision with respect to | 9 | | the loss of 30 days of sentence
credit within any calendar year | 10 | | for any prisoner or to increase any penalty
beyond the length | 11 | | requested by the Department.
| 12 | | (3) The Director of the Department of Corrections, in | 13 | | appropriate cases, may
restore sentence credits which have | 14 | | been revoked, suspended,
or reduced. The Department shall | 15 | | prescribe rules and regulations governing the restoration of | 16 | | sentence credits. These rules and regulations shall provide | 17 | | for the automatic restoration of sentence credits following a | 18 | | period in which the prisoner maintains a record without a | 19 | | disciplinary violation.
| 20 | | Nothing contained in this Section shall prohibit the | 21 | | Prisoner Review Board
from ordering, pursuant to Section | 22 | | 3-3-9(a)(3)(i)(B), that a prisoner serve up
to one year of the | 23 | | sentence imposed by the court that was not served due to the
| 24 | | accumulation of sentence credit.
| 25 | | (d) If a lawsuit is filed by a prisoner in an Illinois or | 26 | | federal court
against the State, the Department of |
| | | SB2917 | - 45 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | Corrections, or the Prisoner Review Board,
or against any of
| 2 | | their officers or employees, and the court makes a specific | 3 | | finding that a
pleading, motion, or other paper filed by the | 4 | | prisoner is frivolous, the
Department of Corrections shall | 5 | | conduct a hearing to revoke up to
180 days of sentence credit | 6 | | by bringing charges against the prisoner
sought to be deprived | 7 | | of the sentence credits before the Prisoner Review
Board as | 8 | | provided in subparagraph (a)(8) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code.
| 9 | | If the prisoner has not accumulated 180 days of sentence | 10 | | credit at the
time of the finding, then the Prisoner Review | 11 | | Board may revoke all
sentence credit accumulated by the | 12 | | prisoner.
| 13 | | For purposes of this subsection (d):
| 14 | | (1) "Frivolous" means that a pleading, motion, or | 15 | | other filing which
purports to be a legal document filed | 16 | | by a prisoner in his or her lawsuit meets

warranted by existing law | 25 | | or by a nonfrivolous argument for the extension,
| 26 | | modification, or reversal of existing law or the |
| | | SB2917 | - 46 - | LRB102 20347 RLC 29203 b |
|
| 1 | | establishment of new law;
| 2 | | (D) the allegations and other factual contentions | 3 | | do not have
evidentiary
support or, if specifically so | 4 | | identified, are not likely to have evidentiary
support | 5 | | after a reasonable opportunity for further | 6 | | investigation or discovery;
or
| 7 | | (E) the denials of factual contentions are not | 8 | | warranted on the
evidence, or if specifically so | 9 | | identified, are not reasonably based on a lack
of | 10 | | information or belief.
| 11 | | (2) "Lawsuit" means a motion pursuant to Section
116-3 | 12 | | of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963, a habeas corpus | 13 | | action under
