was originally prosecuted | 11 | | under the provisions of the Criminal Code of
1961, as amended, | 12 | | and sentenced under the provisions of this Act pursuant
to | 13 | | Section 2-7 of the Juvenile Court Act or Section 5-805 of the

Court Act of 1987 and committed to the Department of | 15 | | Juvenile Justice under Section 5-8-6, the Department of | 16 | | Juvenile Justice shall, within

of 17. Within 90 days of | 21 | | receipt of that notice, the sentencing court shall
conduct a | 22 | | hearing, pursuant to the provisions of subsection (c) of this

minor person committed for an indeterminate | 8 | | sentence in a criminal
proceeding shall terminate at the | 9 | | expiration of the maximum term of
imprisonment, and he shall | 10 | | thereupon be released to serve a period of
parole under Section | 11 | | 5-8-1, but if the maximum term of imprisonment does
not expire | 12 | | until after his 21st birthday, he shall continue to be
subject | 13 | | to the control and custody of the Department of Juvenile | 14 | | Justice, and on his 21st
birthday, he shall be transferred to | 15 | | the Adult Division of the Department of Corrections. If such | 16 | | person

hearsay, may be relied upon to the extent of its | 25 | | probative value, even though
not competent for the purposes of | 26 | | an adjudicatory hearing. The court shall
consider, along with |
| | | SB2944 Engrossed | - 25 - | LRB097 14649 RLC 59537 b |
|
| 1 | | any other relevant matter, the following:
| 2 | | 1. The nature of the offense for which the minor was | 3 | | found guilty and
the length of the sentence the minor has | 4 | | to serve and the record and
previous history of the minor.
| 5 | | 2. The record of the minor's adjustment within the | 6 | | Department of
Juvenile Justice, including, but not limited | 7 | | to, reports from
the minor's counselor, any escapes, | 8 | | attempted escapes or violent or

minor, | 10 | | summaries of classes attended by the minor, and any record | 11 | | of work
performed by the minor while in the institution.
| 12 | | 3. The relative maturity of the minor based upon the | 13 | | physical,
psychological and emotional development of the | 14 | | minor.
| 15 | | 4. The record of the rehabilitative progress of the | 16 | | minor and an
assessment of the vocational potential of the | 17 | | minor.

but not limited to, the availability of | 20 | | space within the Department of

adjust to confinement within an adult | 3 | | institution based upon the minor's
physical size and | 4 | | maturity.
| 5 | | All relevant factors considered under this subsection need | 6 | | not be resolved

records, probation reports or any | 8 | | other reports which are considered by
the court for the purpose | 9 | | of transfer shall be made available to counsel
for the juvenile | 10 | | at least 30 days prior to the date of the transfer hearing.

provisions of the Criminal Code of 1961, as amended, | 18 | | and sentenced under
the provisions of this Act pursuant to | 19 | | Section 2-7 of the Juvenile Court Act

his | 22 | | designee may authorize the emergency transfer of such person, | 23 | | unless
the transfer of the person is governed by subsection (e) | 24 | | of this Section.
The sentencing court shall be provided notice | 25 | | of any emergency transfer no
later than 3 days after the | 26 | | emergency transfer. Upon motion brought within
60 days of the |
| | | SB2944 Engrossed | - 27 - | LRB097 14649 RLC 59537 b |
|
| 1 | | emergency transfer by the sentencing court or any party, the
| 2 | | sentencing court may conduct a hearing pursuant to the | 3 | | provisions of
subsection (c) of this Section in order to | 4 | | determine whether the person
shall remain confined in the | 5 | | Department of Corrections.
| 6 | | (e) The Director of Juvenile Justice or his designee may | 7 | | authorize the permanent transfer to
the Department of | 8 | | Corrections of any person 18 years or older who was prosecuted | 9 | | under

under the provisions of this Act pursuant to | 11 | | Section 2-7 of the Juvenile
Court Act or Section 5-805 of the | 12 | | Juvenile Court Act of 1987
and committed to the Department of | 13 | | Juvenile Justice under Section 5-8-6 of this Act.
The Director | 14 | | of Juvenile Justice or his designee shall be governed by the | 15 | | following factors
in determining whether to authorize the | 16 | | permanent transfer of the person to

the person's counselor, any escapes, | 24 | | attempted escapes or violent or
disruptive conduct on the | 25 | | part of the person, any tickets received by the
person, | 26 | | summaries of classes attended by the person, and any record |
| | | SB2944 Engrossed | - 28 - | LRB097 14649 RLC 59537 b |
