Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

Sec. 15.1.

Probation and Court Services Fund.

(a) The county treasurer in each county shall establish a
probation and court services fund consisting of fees collected pursuant to
subsection (i) of Section 5-6-3 and subsection (i) of Section 5-6-3.1
of the Unified Code of Corrections, subsection (10) of Section 5-615
and
subsection (5) of Section 5-715 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, and
paragraph 14.3 of subsection (b) of Section 110-10 of the Code of Criminal
Procedure of 1963.
 The
county treasurer shall disburse monies from the fund only at the direction
of the chief judge of the circuit court in such circuit where the county is
located.  The county treasurer of each county shall, on or before January
10 of each year, submit an annual report to the Supreme Court.

(b) Monies in the probation and court services fund shall be
appropriated by the county board to be used within the county or
jurisdiction where
collected in accordance
with policies and guidelines approved by the Supreme Court for the costs
of operating the probation and court services department or departments;
however, except as provided in subparagraphs (g) and (h), monies
in the probation and court services fund shall not be used for the payment
of salaries of probation and court services personnel.

(c) Monies expended from the probation and court services fund shall
be used to supplement, not supplant, county appropriations for probation
and court services.

(d) Interest earned on monies deposited in a probation and court
services fund may be used by the county for its ordinary and contingent
expenditures.

(e) The county board may appropriate moneys from the probation and court
services fund, upon the direction of the chief judge, to support programs that
are part of the continuum of juvenile delinquency intervention programs which
are or may be developed within the county.  The grants from the probation and
court services fund shall be for no more than one year and may be used for any
expenses attributable to the program including administration and oversight of
the program by the probation department.

(f) The county board may appropriate moneys from the probation and court
services fund, upon the direction of the chief judge, to support practices
endorsed or required under the Sex Offender Management Board Act, including but
not limited to sex offender evaluation, treatment, and monitoring programs that
are or may be developed within the county.

(g) For the State Fiscal Years 2005, 2006, and 2007
only, the Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts may permit a county or circuit to use its probation and court services fund for the payment of salaries of probation officers and other court services personnel whose salaries are reimbursed under this Act if the State's FY2005, FY2006, or FY2007 appropriation to the Supreme Court for reimbursement to counties for probation salaries and services is less than the amount appropriated to the Supreme Court for these
purposes for State Fiscal Year 2004. The Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts shall take into account each county's or circuit's probation fee collections and expenditures when apportioning the total reimbursement for each county or circuit.

(h) The Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts may permit a county or circuit to use its probation and court services fund for the payment of salaries of probation officers and other court services personnel whose salaries are reimbursed under this Act in any State fiscal year that the appropriation for reimbursement to counties for probation salaries and services is less than the amount appropriated to the Supreme Court for these purposes for State Fiscal Year 2002, except that the Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts shall adjust this amount appropriated in 2002 by 3% per year and may continue to permit use of the probation and court services fund for salaries in any State fiscal year where the State reimbursement to counties is regularly delayed more than 4 months. The Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts shall take into account each county's or circuit's probation fee collections and expenditures when appropriating the total reimbursement for each county or circuit. Any amount appropriated to the Supreme Court in any State fiscal year for the purpose of reimbursing Cook County for the salaries and operations of the Cook County Juvenile Temporary Detention Center shall not be counted in the total appropriation to the Supreme Court in that State fiscal year for reimbursement to counties for probation salaries and services, for the purposes of this paragraph (h).
