10 to operate a watercraft. Following this warning, if a
11 person under arrest refuses upon the request of a law
12 enforcement officer to submit to a test designated by the
13 officer, none shall be given, but the law enforcement
14 officer shall file with the clerk of the circuit court for
15 the county in which the arrest was made, a sworn statement
16 naming the person refusing to take and complete the test or
17 tests requested under the provisions of this Section. Such

24 the watercraft within this State while under the influence
25 of alcohol, other drug, or combination thereof and that
26 such test or tests were made as an incident to and
27 following the lawful arrest for an offense as defined in
28 this Section or a similar provision of a local ordinance,
29 and that the person after being arrested for an offense
30 arising out of acts alleged to have been committed while so
31 operating or in actual physical control of a watercraft
32 refused to submit to and complete a test or tests as
33 requested by the law enforcement officer.
34         The clerk shall thereupon notify such person in writing
35 that the person's privilege to operate a watercraft will be
36 suspended unless, within 28 days from the date of mailing

 

 

HB3821 Engrossed - 5 - LRB093 12239 DRH 17458 b

1 of the notice, such person shall request in writing a
2 hearing thereon; if the person desires a hearing, such
3 person shall file a complaint in the circuit court for and
4 in the county in which such person was arrested for such
5 hearing. Such hearing shall proceed in the court in the
6 same manner as other civil proceedings, shall cover only
7 the issues of whether the person was placed under arrest
8 for an offense as defined in this Section or a similar
9 provision of a local ordinance as evidenced by the issuance
10 of a uniform citation; whether the arresting officer had
11 reasonable grounds to believe that such person was
12 operating or was in actual physical control of a watercraft
13 while under the influence of alcohol, other drug, or
14 combination thereof; and whether such person refused to
15 submit and complete the test or tests upon the request of
16 the law enforcement officer. Whether the person was
17 informed that such person's privilege to operate a
18 watercraft would be suspended if such person refused to
19 submit to the test or tests shall not be an issue.
20         If the court finds against the person on the issues
21 before the court, the clerk shall immediately notify the
22 Department of Natural Resources of the court's decision,
23 and the Department shall suspend the watercraft operation
24 privileges of the person for at least 2 years.

29 Vehicle Code, as amended, concerning the certification and
30 use of chemical tests apply to the use of such tests under
31 this Section.
32     (C) Upon the trial of any civil or criminal action or
33 proceeding arising out of acts alleged to have been committed
34 by any person while operating or in actual physical control of
35 a watercraft while under the influence of alcohol, the
36 concentration of alcohol in the person's blood or breath at the

 

 

HB3821 Engrossed - 6 - LRB093 12239 DRH 17458 b

1 time alleged as shown by analysis of a person's blood, urine,
2 breath, or other bodily substance shall give rise to the
3 presumptions specified in subdivisions 1, 2, and 3 of
4 subsection (b) of Section 11-501.2 of the Illinois Vehicle
5 Code. The foregoing provisions of this subsection (C) shall not
6 be construed as limiting the introduction of any other relevant
7 evidence bearing upon the question whether the person was under
8 the influence of alcohol.
9     (D) If a person under arrest refuses to submit to a
10 chemical test under the provisions of this Section, evidence of
11 refusal shall be admissible in any civil or criminal action or
12 proceeding arising out of acts alleged to have been committed
13 while the person under the influence of alcohol, or other
14 drugs, or combination of both was operating or was in actual
15 physical control of a watercraft.
16     (E) The owner of any watercraft or any person given
17 supervisory authority over a watercraft, may not knowingly
18 permit a watercraft to be operated by any person under the
19 influence of alcohol, other drug, or combination thereof.
20     (F) Whenever any person is convicted of a violation of this
21 Section, the court shall notify the Division of Law Enforcement
22 of the Department of Natural Resources, to provide the
23 Department with the records essential for the performance of
24 the Department's duties to monitor and enforce any order of
25 suspension or revocation concerning the privilege to operate a
26 watercraft.
27     (G) No person who has been arrested and charged for
28 violating paragraph 1 of subsection (A) of this Section shall

4 may impose any sentence which could have been imposed at the
5 original trial subject to Section 5-5-4 of the Unified Code of
6 Corrections. If a sentence is vacated on appeal or on
7 collateral attack due to the failure of the trier of fact at
8 trial to determine beyond a reasonable doubt the existence of a
9 fact (other than a prior conviction) necessary to increase the
10 punishment for the offense beyond the statutory maximum
11 otherwise applicable, either the defendant may be re-sentenced

22         (1) the court finds (A) or (B) or both are appropriate:
23             (A) the defendant is willing to undergo a court
24 approved counseling program for a minimum duration of 2
25 years; or

2 victim's counseling services, to the extent that the court
3 finds, after considering the defendant's income and
4 assets, that the defendant is financially capable of paying
5 for such services, if the victim was under 18 years of age
6 at the time the offense was committed and requires
7 counseling as a result of the offense.
8     Probation may be revoked or modified pursuant to Section

10 the defendant violated a condition of his or her probation
11 restricting contact with the victim or other family members or
12 commits another offense with the victim or other family
13 members, the court shall revoke the defendant's probation and
14 impose a term of imprisonment.

16 "victim" shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Section

16 of any HIV test administered under this Section, and the court
17 shall grant the disclosure if the State's Attorney shows it is
18 relevant in order to prosecute a charge of criminal
19 transmission of HIV under Section 12-16.2 of the Criminal Code

4 confidential by all medical personnel involved in the testing
5 and must be personally delivered in a sealed envelope to the
6 judge of the court in which the conviction was entered for the
7 judge's inspection in camera. Acting in accordance with the
8 best interests of the public, the judge shall have the
9 discretion to determine to whom, if anyone, the results of the
10 testing may be revealed. The court shall notify the defendant
11 of a positive test showing an infection with the human

1 release of a defendant who wilfully fails to comply with this
2 subsection (j-5) upon his or her release from confinement in a
3 penal institution while serving a mandatory supervised release
4 term; however, the inability of the defendant after making a
5 good faith effort to obtain financial aid or pay for the
6 educational training shall not be deemed a wilful failure to
7 comply. The Prisoner Review Board shall recommit the defendant
8 whose mandatory supervised release term has been revoked under
9 this subsection (j-5) as provided in Section 3-3-9. This
10 subsection (j-5) does not apply to a defendant who has a high

27             (1) a final order of deportation has been issued
28 against the defendant pursuant to proceedings under
29 the Immigration and Nationality Act, and
30             (2) the deportation of the defendant would not
