| 16 | | The Director shall not award good conduct credit for | 17 | | meritorious service under this paragraph (3) to an inmate | 18 | | unless the inmate has served a minimum of 60 days of the | 19 | | sentence; except nothing in this paragraph shall be | 20 | | construed to permit the Director to extend an inmate's | 21 | | sentence beyond that which was imposed by the court.

credit accumulated and retained under | 8 | | paragraph (2.1) of subsection (a) of
this Section by any | 9 | | inmate during specific periods of time in which such
inmate | 10 | | is engaged full-time in substance abuse programs, | 11 | | correctional
industry assignments, or educational programs | 12 | | provided by the Department
under this paragraph (4) and | 13 | | satisfactorily completes the assigned program as

of 1.25 for program participation | 16 | | before August 11, 1993
and 1.50 for program participation | 17 | | on or after that date.

|
| 1 | | effective date of Public Act 95-134)
or subdivision | 2 | | (a)(2)(vi) when the offense is committed on or after June | 3 | | 1, 2008 (the effective date of Public Act 95-625) or | 4 | | subdivision (a)(2)(vii) when the offense is committed on or | 5 | | after July 23, 2010 ( the effective date of Public Act | 6 | | 96-1224) this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly , | 7 | | or if convicted of aggravated driving under the influence | 8 | | of alcohol, other drug or drugs, or

| 10 | | subparagraph (F) of paragraph (1) of subsection (d) of | 11 | | Section 11-501 of the
Illinois Vehicle Code, or if | 12 | | convicted of aggravated driving under the influence of | 13 | | alcohol,

|
| | | HB3522 Engrossed | - 22 - | LRB097 06444 HEP 46526 b |
|
| 1 | | relating to the foregoing offenses. No inmate shall be | 2 | | eligible for the
additional good conduct credit under this | 3 | | paragraph (4) who (i) has previously
received increased | 4 | | good conduct credit under this paragraph (4) and has
| 5 | | subsequently been convicted of a
felony, or (ii) has | 6 | | previously served more than one prior sentence of
| 7 | | imprisonment for a felony in an adult correctional | 8 | | facility.
| 9 | | Educational, vocational, substance abuse and | 10 | | correctional
industry programs under which good conduct | 11 | | credit may be increased under
this paragraph (4) and | 12 | | paragraph (4.1) of this subsection (a) shall be evaluated | 13 | | by the Department on the basis of
documented standards. The | 14 | | Department shall report the results of these
evaluations to | 15 | | the Governor and the General Assembly by September 30th of | 16 | | each
year. The reports shall include data relating to the | 17 | | recidivism rate among
program participants.
| 18 | | Availability of these programs shall be subject to the
| 19 | | limits of fiscal resources appropriated by the General | 20 | | Assembly for these
purposes. Eligible inmates who are | 21 | | denied immediate admission shall be
placed on a waiting | 22 | | list under criteria established by the Department.
The | 23 | | inability of any inmate to become engaged in any such | 24 | | programs
by reason of insufficient program resources or for | 25 | | any other reason
established under the rules and | 26 | | regulations of the Department shall not be
deemed a cause |
| | | HB3522 Engrossed | - 23 - | LRB097 06444 HEP 46526 b |
|
| 1 | | of action under which the Department or any employee or
| 2 | | agent of the Department shall be liable for damages to the | 3 | | inmate.
| 4 | | (4.1) The rules and regulations shall also provide that | 5 | | an additional 60 days of good conduct credit shall be | 6 | | awarded to any prisoner who passes the high school level | 7 | | Test of General Educational Development (GED) while the | 8 | | prisoner is incarcerated. The good conduct credit awarded | 9 | | under this paragraph (4.1) shall be in addition to, and | 10 | | shall not affect, the award of good conduct under any other | 11 | | paragraph of this Section, but shall also be pursuant to | 12 | | the guidelines and restrictions set forth in paragraph (4) | 13 | | of subsection (a) of this Section.
The good conduct credit | 14 | | provided for in this paragraph shall be available only to | 15 | | those prisoners who have not previously earned a high | 16 | | school diploma or a GED. If, after an award of the GED good | 17 | | conduct credit has been made and the Department determines | 18 | | that the prisoner was not eligible, then the award shall be | 19 | | revoked.
| 20 | | (4.5) The rules and regulations on early release shall | 21 | | also provide that
when the court's sentencing order | 22 | | recommends a prisoner for substance abuse treatment and the
| 23 | | crime was committed on or after September 1, 2003 (the | 24 | | effective date of
Public Act 93-354), the prisoner shall | 25 | | receive no good conduct credit awarded under clause (3) of | 26 | | this subsection (a) unless he or she participates in and
|
| | | HB3522 Engrossed | - 24 - | LRB097 06444 HEP 46526 b |
|
| 1 | | completes a substance abuse treatment program. The | 2 | | Director may waive the requirement to participate in or | 3 | | complete a substance abuse treatment program and award the | 4 | | good conduct credit in specific instances if the prisoner | 5 | | is not a good candidate for a substance abuse treatment | 6 | | program for medical, programming, or operational reasons. | 7 | | Availability of
substance abuse treatment shall be subject | 8 | | to the limits of fiscal resources
appropriated by the | 9 | | General Assembly for these purposes. If treatment is not
| 10 | | available and the requirement to participate and complete | 11 | | the treatment has not been waived by the Director, the | 12 | | prisoner shall be placed on a waiting list under criteria
| 13 | | established by the Department. The Director may allow a | 14 | | prisoner placed on
a waiting list to participate in and | 15 | | complete a substance abuse education class or attend | 16 | | substance
abuse self-help meetings in lieu of a substance | 17 | | abuse treatment program. A prisoner on a waiting list who | 18 | | is not placed in a substance abuse program prior to release | 19 | | may be eligible for a waiver and receive good conduct | 20 | | credit under clause (3) of this subsection (a) at the | 21 | | discretion of the Director.
| 22 | | (4.6) The rules and regulations on early release shall | 23 | | also provide that a prisoner who has been convicted of a | 24 | | sex offense as defined in Section 2 of the Sex Offender | 25 | | Registration Act shall receive no good conduct credit | 26 | | unless he or she either has successfully completed or is |
| | | HB3522 Engrossed | - 25 - | LRB097 06444 HEP 46526 b |
|
| 1 | | participating in sex offender treatment as defined by the | 2 | | Sex Offender Management Board. However, prisoners who are | 3 | | waiting to receive such treatment, but who are unable to do | 4 | | so due solely to the lack of resources on the part of the | 5 | | Department, may, at the Director's sole discretion, be | 6 | | awarded good conduct credit at such rate as the Director | 7 | | shall determine.
| 8 | | (5) Whenever the Department is to release any inmate | 9 | | earlier than it
otherwise would because of a grant of good | 10 | | conduct credit for meritorious
service given at any time | 11 | | during the term, the Department shall give
reasonable | 12 | | notice of the impending release not less than 14 days prior | 13 | | to the date of the release to the State's
Attorney of the | 14 | | county where the prosecution of the inmate took place, and | 15 | | if applicable, the State's Attorney of the county into | 16 | | which the inmate will be released. The Department must also | 17 | | make identification information and a recent photo of the | 18 | | inmate being released accessible on the Internet by means | 19 | | 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, residence address, commitment offense and | 24 | | county where conviction was imposed. The identification | 25 | | information shall be placed on the website within 3 days of | 26 | | the inmate's release and the information may not be removed |
| | | HB3522 Engrossed | - 26 - | LRB097 06444 HEP 46526 b |
|
| 1 | | until either: completion of the first year of mandatory | 2 | | supervised release or return of the inmate to custody of | 3 | | the Department.
| 4 | | (b) Whenever a person is or has been committed under
| 5 | | several convictions, with separate sentences, the sentences
| 6 | | shall be construed under Section 5-8-4 in granting and
| 7 | | forfeiting of good time.
| 8 | | (c) The Department shall prescribe rules and regulations
| 9 | | for revoking good conduct credit, or suspending or reducing
the | 10 | | rate of accumulation of good conduct credit for specific
rule | 11 | | violations, during imprisonment. These rules and regulations
| 12 | | shall provide that no inmate may be penalized more than one
| 13 | | year of good conduct credit for any one infraction.
| 14 | | When the Department seeks to revoke, suspend or reduce
the | 15 | | rate of accumulation of any good conduct credits for
an alleged | 16 | | infraction of its rules, it shall bring charges
therefor | 17 | | against the prisoner sought to be so deprived of
good conduct | 18 | | credits before the Prisoner Review Board as
provided in | 19 | | subparagraph (a)(4) of Section 3-3-2 of this
Code, if the | 20 | | amount of credit at issue exceeds 30 days or
when during any 12 | 21 | | month period, the cumulative amount of
credit revoked exceeds | 22 | | 30 days except where the infraction is committed
or discovered | 23 | | within 60 days of scheduled release. In those cases,
the | 24 | | Department of Corrections may revoke up to 30 days of good | 25 | | conduct credit.
The Board may subsequently approve the | 26 | | revocation of additional good
conduct credit, if the Department |
| | | HB3522 Engrossed | - 27 - | LRB097 06444 HEP 46526 b |
|
| 1 | | seeks to revoke good conduct credit in
excess of 30 days. | 2 | | However, the Board shall not be empowered to review the
| 3 | | Department's decision with respect to the loss of 30 days of | 4 | | good conduct
credit within any calendar year for any prisoner | 5 | | or to increase any penalty
beyond the length requested by the | 6 | | Department.
| 7 | | The Director of the Department of Corrections, in | 8 | | appropriate cases, may
restore up to 30 days good conduct | 9 | | credits which have been revoked, suspended
or reduced. Any | 10 | | restoration of good conduct credits in excess of 30 days shall
| 11 | | be subject to review by the Prisoner Review Board. However, the | 12 | | Board may not
restore good conduct credit in excess of the | 13 | | amount requested by the Director.
| 14 | | Nothing contained in this Section shall prohibit the | 15 | | Prisoner Review Board
from ordering, pursuant to Section | 16 | | 3-3-9(a)(3)(i)(B), that a prisoner serve up
to one year of the | 17 | | sentence imposed by the court that was not served due to the
| 18 | | accumulation of good conduct credit.
| 19 | | (d) If a lawsuit is filed by a prisoner in an Illinois or | 20 | | federal court
against the State, the Department of Corrections, | 21 | | or the Prisoner Review Board,
or against any of
their officers | 22 | | or employees, and the court makes a specific finding that a
| 23 | | pleading, motion, or other paper filed by the prisoner is | 24 | | frivolous, the
Department of Corrections shall conduct a | 25 | | hearing to revoke up to
180 days of good conduct credit by | 26 | | bringing charges against the prisoner
sought to be deprived of |
| | | HB3522 Engrossed | - 28 - | LRB097 06444 HEP 46526 b |
|
| 1 | | the good conduct credits before the Prisoner Review
Board as | 2 | | provided in subparagraph (a)(8) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code.
| 3 | | If the prisoner has not accumulated 180 days of good conduct | 4 | | credit at the
time of the finding, then the Prisoner Review | 5 | | Board may revoke all
good conduct credit accumulated by the | 6 | | prisoner.
| 7 | | For purposes of this subsection (d):
| 8 | | (1) "Frivolous" means that a pleading, motion, or other | 9 | | filing which
purports to be a legal document filed by a | 10 | | prisoner in his or her lawsuit meets
any or all of the | 11 | | following criteria:
| 12 | | (A) it lacks an arguable basis either in law or in | 13 | | fact;
| 14 | | (B) it is being presented for any improper purpose, | 15 | | such as to harass or
to cause unnecessary delay or | 16 | | needless increase in the cost of litigation;
| 17 | | (C) the claims, defenses, and other legal | 18 | | contentions therein are not
warranted by existing law | 19 | | or by a nonfrivolous argument for the extension,
| 20 | | modification, or reversal of existing law or the | 21 | | establishment of new law;
| 22 | | (D) the allegations and other factual contentions | 23 | | do not have
evidentiary
support or, if specifically so | 24 | | identified, are not likely to have evidentiary
support | 25 | | after a reasonable opportunity for further | 26 | | investigation or discovery;
or
|
| | | HB3522 Engrossed | - 29 - | LRB097 06444 HEP 46526 b |
|
| 1 | | (E) the denials of factual contentions are not | 2 | | warranted on the
evidence, or if specifically so | 3 | | identified, are not reasonably based on a lack
of | 4 | | information or belief.
| 5 | | (2) "Lawsuit" means a motion pursuant to Section
116-3 | 6 | | of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963, a habeas corpus | 7 | | action under
Article X of the Code of Civil Procedure or | 8 | | under federal law (28 U.S.C. 2254),
a petition for claim | 9 | | under the Court of Claims Act, an action under the
federal | 10 | | Civil Rights Act (42 U.S.C. 1983), or a second or | 11 | | subsequent petition for post-conviction relief under | 12 | | Article 122 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963 | 13 | | whether filed with or without leave of court or a second or | 14 | | subsequent petition for relief from judgment under Section | 15 | | 2-1401 of the Code of Civil Procedure.
| 16 | | (e) Nothing in Public Act 90-592 or 90-593 affects the | 17 | | validity of Public Act 89-404.
| 18 | | (f) Whenever the Department is to release any inmate who | 19 | | has been convicted of a violation of an order of protection | 20 | | under Section 12-30 of the Criminal Code of 1961, earlier than | 21 | | it
otherwise would because of a grant of good conduct credit, | 22 | | the Department, as a condition of such early release, shall | 23 | | require that the person, upon release, be placed under | 24 | | electronic surveillance as provided in Section 5-8A-7 of this | 25 | | Code. | 26 | | (Source: P.A. 95-134, eff. 8-13-07; 95-585, eff. 6-1-08; |
