32 need of medical or surgical treatment but is incapable of
33 giving consent thereto shall receive such medical or surgical

5     death, damage or impairment to bodily functions, or
6     disfigurement; and
7         (2) that the person is not capable of giving consent to
8     such treatment; the chief administrative officer may give
9     consent for such medical or surgical treatment, and such
10     consent shall be deemed to be the consent of the person for
11     all purposes, including, but not limited to, the authority
12     of a physician to give such treatment.
13     (e-5) If a physician providing medical care to a committed
14 person on behalf of the Department advises the chief
15 administrative officer that the committed person's mental or
16 physical health has deteriorated as a result of the cessation
17 of ingestion of food or liquid to the point where medical or
18 surgical treatment is required to prevent death, damage, or
19 impairment to bodily functions, the chief administrative
20 officer may authorize such medical or surgical treatment.
21     (f) In the event that the person requires medical care and
22 treatment at a place other than the institution or facility,
23 the person may be removed therefrom under conditions prescribed
24 by the Department. The Department shall require the committed
25 person receiving medical or dental services on a non-emergency
26 basis to pay a $2 co-payment to the Department for each visit
27 for medical or dental services. The amount of each co-payment
28 shall be deducted from the committed person's individual
29 account. A committed person who has a chronic illness, as
30 defined by Department rules and regulations, shall be exempt
31 from the $2 co-payment for treatment of the chronic illness. A
32 committed person shall not be subject to a $2 co-payment for
33 follow-up visits ordered by a physician, who is employed by, or
34 contracts with, the Department. A committed person who is
35 indigent is exempt from the $2 co-payment and is entitled to

17 similar provision of a local ordinance, shall be collected and
18 disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under Section 27.5
19 of the Clerks of Courts Act.

31 the Child Care Act of 1969, a public or private elementary or
32 secondary school, or otherwise works with children under 18
33 years of age on a daily basis. When a defendant is so employed,

HB0255 Engrossed - 17 - LRB094 04960 RLC 34990 b

1 of the defendant is a school, the Clerk of the Court shall
2 direct the mailing of a copy of the judgment of conviction or
3 order of supervision or probation to the appropriate regional
4 superintendent of schools. The regional superintendent of
5 schools shall notify the State Board of Education of any
6 notification under this subsection.

12 attend educational courses designed to prepare the defendant
13 for a high school diploma and to work toward a high school
14 diploma or to work toward passing the high school level Test of
15 General Educational Development (GED) or to work toward
16 completing a vocational training program offered by the
17 Department of Corrections. The costs of the educational courses
18 shall be paid by the Department. If a defendant fails to
19 complete the educational training required by his or her
20 sentence during the term of incarceration, the Prisoner Review
21 Board shall, as a condition of mandatory supervised release,
22 require the defendant, at his or her own expense, to pursue a
23 course of study toward a high school diploma or passage of the
24 GED test. The costs of the educational courses shall be paid by
25 the Department. The Prisoner Review Board shall revoke the
26 mandatory supervised release of a defendant who wilfully fails
27 to comply with this subsection (j-5) upon his or her release
28 from confinement in a penal institution while serving a
29 mandatory supervised release term; however, the inability of
30 the defendant after making a good faith effort to obtain
31 financial aid or pay for the educational training shall not be
32 deemed a wilful failure to comply. The Prisoner Review Board
33 shall recommit the defendant whose mandatory supervised
34 release term has been revoked under this subsection (j-5) as
35 provided in Section 3-3-9. This subsection (j-5) does not apply
36 to a defendant who has a high school diploma or has

 

 

HB0255 Engrossed - 18 - LRB094 04960 RLC 34990 b

1 successfully passed the GED test. This subsection (j-5) does
2 not apply to a defendant who is determined by the court to be
3 developmentally disabled or otherwise mentally incapable of
4 completing the educational or vocational program.

6 felony or misdemeanor that requires the defendant to be

9     (l), whenever a defendant, who is an alien as defined by
10     the Immigration and Nationality Act, is convicted of any
11     felony or misdemeanor offense, the court after sentencing
12     the defendant may, upon motion of the State's Attorney,
13     hold sentence in abeyance and remand the defendant to the
14     custody of the Attorney General of the United States or his
15     or her designated agent to be deported when:
16             (1) a final order of deportation has been issued
17         against the defendant pursuant to proceedings under
18         the Immigration and Nationality Act, and
19             (2) the deportation of the defendant would not
20         deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct
21         and would not be inconsistent with the ends of justice.
22         Otherwise, the defendant shall be sentenced as
23     provided in this Chapter V.
24         (B) If the defendant has already been sentenced for a
25     felony or misdemeanor offense, or has been placed on
26     probation under Section 10 of the Cannabis Control Act or
27     Section 410 of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, the
28     court may, upon motion of the State's Attorney to suspend
29     the sentence imposed, commit the defendant to the custody
30     of the Attorney General of the United States or his or her
31     designated agent when:
32             (1) a final order of deportation has been issued
33         against the defendant pursuant to proceedings under
34         the Immigration and Nationality Act, and
35             (2) the deportation of the defendant would not
36         deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct

 

 

HB0255 Engrossed - 19 - LRB094 04960 RLC 34990 b

1         and would not be inconsistent with the ends of justice.
2         (C) This subsection (l) does not apply to offenders who
3     are subject to the provisions of paragraph (2) of
4     subsection (a) of Section 3-6-3.
5         (D) Upon motion of the State's Attorney, if a defendant
6     sentenced under this Section returns to the jurisdiction of
7     the United States, the defendant shall be recommitted to
8     the custody of the county from which he or she was
9     sentenced. Thereafter, the defendant shall be brought
10     before the sentencing court, which may impose any sentence
11     that was available under Section 5-5-3 at the time of
12     initial sentencing. In addition, the defendant shall not be
13     eligible for additional good conduct credit for
14     meritorious service as provided under Section 3-6-6.
15     (m) A person convicted of criminal defacement of property
16 under Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961, in which the
17 property damage exceeds $300 and the property damaged is a

22 violation of Section 12-19, 12-21, or 16-1.3 of the Criminal
23 Code of 1961 (i) to an impact incarceration program if the
24 person is otherwise eligible for that program under Section
25 5-8-1.1, (ii) to community service, or (iii) if the person is
26 an addict or alcoholic, as defined in the Alcoholism and Other
27 Drug Abuse and Dependency Act, to a substance or alcohol abuse
28 program licensed under that Act.
