21    reported to the Secretary of State under this provision shall
22    be processed by the Secretary of State as if  the  cases  had
23    been  adjudicated  in  traffic  or  criminal  court. However,
24    information reported relative  to  the  offense  of  reckless
25    homicide,  or  Section  11-501  of  this  Code,  or a similar
26    provision of a  local  ordinance,  shall  be  privileged  and

30        forfeiture  of any bail, security or bond given to secure
31        appearance for any offense under  this  Code  or  similar
32        offenses  under municipal ordinance, it shall be the duty
33        of the clerk of the court in which such vacation was  had
34        or  the  judge  of such court if such court has no clerk,
                            -5-                LRB9002490WHmg
 1        within 10 days thereafter to forward to the Secretary  of
 2        State a report of the vacation.
 3             4.  A report of any disposition of court supervision
 4        for  a  violation  of Sections 6-303, 11-401, 11-501 or a
 5        similar provision of a local ordinance, 11-503 and 11-504
 6        shall be forwarded to the Secretary of State.
 7             5.  Reports of conviction  and  adjudications  under
 8        the  Juvenile Court Act of 1987 in a computer processible
 9        medium shall be forwarded to the Secretary of  State  via
10        the  Supreme Court in the form and format required by the
11        Illinois Supreme  Court  and  established  by  a  written
12        agreement  between the Supreme Court and the Secretary of
13        State.  In  counties  with  a  population  over  300,000,
14        instead of  forwarding  reports  to  the  Supreme  Court,
15        reports   of   conviction  and  adjudications  under  the
16        Juvenile Court Act of  1987  in  a  computer  processible
17        medium  may be forwarded to the Secretary of State by the
18        Circuit Court Clerk in a form and format required by  the
19        Secretary  of  State and established by written agreement
20        between the Circuit Court  Clerk  and  the  Secretary  of
21        State.   Failure  to forward the reports of conviction or
22        adjudications under the Juvenile Court  Act  of  1987  as
23        required  by  this Section shall be deemed an omission of
24        duty and it shall be the  duty  of  the  several  State's
25        Attorneys to enforce the requirements of this Section.
26        (b)  Whenever a restricted driving permit is forwarded to
27    a  court,  as  a  result  of confiscation by a police officer
28    pursuant to the authority in Section 6-113(f),  it  shall  be
29    the  duty  of the clerk, or judge, if the court has no clerk,
30    to forward such restricted driving permit and a facsimile  of
31    the   officer's   citation  to  the  Secretary  of  State  as
32    expeditiously as practicable.
33        (c)  For the purposes of this Code, a forfeiture of  bail
34    or collateral deposited to secure a defendant's appearance in
                            -6-                LRB9002490WHmg
 1    court when forfeiture has not been vacated, or the failure of
 2    a defendant to appear for trial after depositing his driver's
 3    license  in  lieu  of  other  bail,  shall be equivalent to a
 4    conviction.
 5        (d)  For the purpose of providing the Secretary of  State
 6    with  records necessary to properly monitor and assess driver
 7    performance and assist the courts in the  proper  disposition
 8    of repeat traffic law offenders, the clerk of the court shall
 9    forward  to  the  Secretary of State, on a form prescribed by
10    the Secretary, records of driver's participation in a  driver
11    remedial   or  rehabilitative  program  which  was  required,
12    through a court order or court supervision,  in  relation  to
13    the driver's arrest for a violation of Section 11-501 of this
14    Code  or  a  similar  provision  of  a local ordinance.  Such
15    reports shall be sent  within  10  days  after  the  driver's
16    referral  to  such driver remedial or rehabilitative program.
17    Such reports, including those required to be forwarded  under
18    subsection  4  of  paragraph  (a),  shall  be recorded to the
19    driver's file, but shall  not  be  released  to  any  outside
20    source, except the affected driver, and shall be used only to
21    assist in assessing driver performance and for the purpose of
22    informing  the  courts  that  such driver has been previously
23    assigned court supervision or referred to a driver's remedial
24    or rehabilitative program.

28    minors.  Whenever a person is adjudicated under the  Juvenile
29    Court Act of 1987 as a truant minor in need of supervision, a
30    minor   requiring  authoritative  intervention,  an  addicted
31    minor, or a delinquent minor and the court  orders  that  the
32    minor's  driver's  license  or  privilege  to  drive  a motor
33    vehicle be suspended until the minor attains 18 years of age,

24    supervision under Section 3-25 and may include  an  order  of
25    protection under Section 3-26.

 9    committed  or  placed  in  accordance with Section 3-28 shall
10    provide for the parents or guardian of  the  estate  of  such
11    minor to pay to the legal custodian or guardian of the person

13        (1)  The  following kinds of orders of disposition may be
14    made in respect of wards of the court:
15             (a)  Except as provided in Section 5-33 and  Section
16        5-35,  a minor found to be a delinquent under Section 5-3
17        may be:
18                  (1)  put on probation or conditional  discharge
19             and  released  to  his  or  her parents, guardian or
20             legal custodian, provided, however,  that  any  such
21             minor  who  is  not  committed  to the Department of
22             Corrections, Juvenile Division under this subsection
23             and who is found to be a delinquent for  an  offense
24             which is first degree murder, a Class X felony, or a
25             forcible felony shall be placed on probation;
26                  (2)  placed  in  accordance  with Section 5-29,
27             with or without  also  being  put  on  probation  or
28             conditional discharge;
29                  (3)  where  authorized under the Alcoholism and
30             Other  Drug  Abuse  and  Dependency   Act,   ordered
31             admitted  for  treatment  for  drug addiction by the

 1                  (4)  committed to the  Department  of  Children
 2             and  Family  Services,  but  only  if the delinquent
 3             minor is under 13 years of age;
 4                  (5)  placed in detention for a  period  not  to
 5             exceed  30  days,  either  as the exclusive order of
 6             disposition or, where  appropriate,  in  conjunction
 7             with  any  other  order  of disposition issued under
 8             this paragraph, provided  that  any  such  detention
 9             shall  be in a juvenile detention home and the minor
10             so detained shall be  10  years  of  age  or  older.
11             However,  the  30-day  limitation may be extended by
12             further order of the court for a minor under age  13
13             committed  to  the Department of Children and Family
14             Services if the court finds  that  the  minor  is  a
15             danger  to  himself  or  others.  The minor shall be
16             given credit on the dispositional order of detention
17             for time spent in detention under Sections  5-10(2),
18             5-14(b)(2),  5-23(1)(b), or 5-25(2) of this Act as a
19             result of the offense for  which  the  dispositional
20             order  was imposed.  The court may grant credit on a
21             dispositional order of  detention  entered  under  a
22             violation  of  probation or violation of conditional
23             discharge under Section 5-25 of this  Act  for  time
24             spent in detention before the filing of the petition
25             alleging  the  violation.   A  minor  shall  not  be
26             deprived  of  credit  for  time  spent  in detention
27             before the filing of a  violation  of  probation  or
28             conditional  discharge  alleging the same or related
29             act(s); or
30                  (6)  ordered    partially     or     completely
31             emancipated in accordance with the provisions of the
32             Emancipation of Mature Minors Act; or.
33                  (7)  subject  to  having  his  or  her driver's
34             license or driving privilege suspended until  he  or
                            -13-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1             she attains 18 years of age.
 2             (b)  A minor found to be delinquent may be committed
 3        to  the  Department  of  Corrections,  Juvenile Division,
 4        under Section 5-33 if the minor is 13  years  of  age  or
 5        older,  provided that the commitment to the Department of
 6        Corrections, Juvenile Division, shall be made only  if  a
 7        term  of  incarceration  is  permitted  by law for adults
 8        found guilty of the  offense  for  which  the  minor  was
 9        adjudicated delinquent.  The time during which a minor is
10        in  custody  before  being released upon the request of a
11        parent, guardian or custodian shall be considered as time
12        spent in detention.
13        (1.1)  When a minor is found  to  be  delinquent  for  an
14    offense  which  is  a  violation  of  the Illinois Controlled
15    Substances Act or the Cannabis Control Act and made a ward of
16    the court, the court may enter a disposition order  requiring
17    the minor to undergo assessment, counseling or treatment in a
18    substance   abuse  program  approved  by  the  Department  of
19    Alcoholism and Substance Abuse.
20        (2)  Any order of disposition other  than  commitment  to
21    the Department of Corrections, Juvenile Division, may provide
22    for protective supervision under Section 5-26 and may include
23    an order of protection under Section 5-27.
24        (3)  Unless   the   order  of  disposition  expressly  so
25    provides, it does not operate to  close  proceedings  on  the
26    pending  petition, but is subject to modification until final
27    closing and discharge of the proceedings under Section 5-34.
28        (4)  In addition to any other order of  disposition,  the
29    court  may  order  any  minor  found to be delinquent to make
30    restitution, in monetary  or  non-monetary  form,  under  the
31    terms  and conditions of Section 5-5-6 of the Unified Code of
32    Corrections, except that the "presentence  hearing"  referred
33    to therein shall be the dispositional hearing for purposes of
34    this  Section. The parent, guardian or legal custodian of the
                            -14-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    minor may be ordered by the court to pay some or all  of  the
 2    restitution  on  the minor's behalf, pursuant to the Parental
 3    Responsibility Law, as now or hereafter amended.  The State's
 4    Attorney is authorized to act on  behalf  of  any  victim  in
 5    seeking  restitution in proceedings under this Section, up to
 6    the maximum amount allowed  in  Section  5  of  the  Parental
 7    Responsibility Law.
 8        (5)  Any   order  for  disposition  where  the  minor  is
 9    committed or placed in accordance  with  Section  5-29  shall
10    provide  for  the  parents  or guardian of the estate of such
11    minor to pay to the legal custodian or guardian of the person
12    of the minor such sums as are determined by the custodian  or
13    guardian  of  the  person  of  the minor as necessary for the
14    minor's needs. Such  payments  may  not  exceed  the  maximum
15    amounts  provided  for  by  Section  9.1  of the Children and
16    Family Services Act.
17        (6)  Whenever the order of disposition requires the minor
18    to attend school or participate in a program of training, the
19    truant officer or designated school official shall  regularly
20    report  to  the  court  if the minor is a chronic or habitual
21    truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code.
22        (7)  In no event shall a delinquent  minor  be  committed
23    for  a  period  of time in excess of that period for which an
24    adult could be committed for the same act.
25        (8)  A minor found to  be  delinquent  for  reasons  that
26    include a violation of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of
27    1961  shall  be  ordered to perform community service for not
28    less than 30 and  not  more  than  120  hours,  if  community
29    service  is  available  in  the  jurisdiction.  The community
30    service shall include,  but  need  not  be  limited  to,  the
31    cleanup  and  repair  of  the  damage  that was caused by the
32    violation or  similar  damage  to  property  located  in  the
33    municipality  or county in which the violation occurred.  The
34    order may be in addition to any  other  order  authorized  by
                            -15-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    this Section.
 2        (9)  In  addition  to any other order of disposition, the
 3    court shall order any minor found to be delinquent for an act
 4    which would constitute criminal  sexual  assault,  aggravated
 5    criminal  sexual abuse, or criminal sexual abuse if committed
 6    by an adult to undergo medical testing to  determine  whether
 7    the   defendant   has   any  sexually  transmissible  disease
 8    including a test for infection  with  human  immunodeficiency
 9    virus  (HIV)  or  any  other  identified  causative agency of
10    acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).  Any medical  test
11    shall  be  performed  only  by appropriately licensed medical
12    practitioners and may  include  an  analysis  of  any  bodily
13    fluids  as  well  as  an  examination  of the minor's person.
14    Except as otherwise provided by law, the results of the  test
15    shall  be kept strictly confidential by all medical personnel
16    involved in the testing and must be personally delivered in a
17    sealed envelope to the  judge  of  the  court  in  which  the
18    disposition  order  was entered for the judge's inspection in
19    camera.  Acting in accordance with the best interests of  the
20    victim and the public, the judge shall have the discretion to
21    determine to whom the results of the testing may be revealed.
22    The  court  shall notify the minor of the results of the test
23    for infection with the human  immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV).
24    The  court  shall  also notify the victim if requested by the
25    victim, and if the victim is under  the  age  of  15  and  if
26    requested  by  the  victim's  parents  or legal guardian, the
27    court shall notify the victim's parents or the legal guardian
28    of the results of the  test  for  infection  with  the  human
29    immunodeficiency   virus  (HIV).   The  court  shall  provide
30    information on the availability of HIV testing and counseling
31    at Department of Public Health facilities to all  parties  to
32    whom  the  results  of  the  testing are revealed.  The court
33    shall order that the cost of any test shall be  paid  by  the
34    county and may be taxed as costs against the minor.

 1        (10)  When  a  court  finds  a minor to be delinquent the
 2    court shall, before making a disposition under this  Section,
 3    make  a finding whether the offense committed either: (i) was
 4    related to or in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
 5    organized gang or was motivated by the minor's membership  in
 6    or  allegiance  to  an  organized  gang,  or  (ii) involved a
 7    violation of paragraph (13) of subsection (a) of the Criminal
 8    Code of 1961, a violation of any Section of Article 24 of the
 9    Criminal Code of 1961, or a violation  of  any  statute  that
10    involved  the  wrongful  use  of  a  firearm.   If  the court
11    determines the question in the  affirmative,  and  the  court
12    does  not  commit the minor to the Department of Corrections,
13    Juvenile Division, the court shall order the minor to perform
14    community service for not less than 30 hours  nor  more  than
15    120  hours,  provided  that community service is available in
16    the jurisdiction and is funded and  approved  by  the  county
17    board  of  the  county  where the offense was committed.  The
18    community service shall include, but need not be limited  to,
19    the cleanup and repair of any damage caused by a violation of
20    Section  21-1.3  of  the  Criminal  Code  of 1961 and similar
21    damage to property located in the municipality or  county  in
22    which  the violation occurred.  When possible and reasonable,
23    the community service  shall  be  performed  in  the  minor's
24    neighborhood.   This  order shall be in addition to any other
25    order authorized by this Section except for an order to place
26    the minor in the custody of the  Department  of  Corrections,
27    Juvenile   Division.   For  the  purposes  of  this  Section,
28    "organized gang" has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 10
29    of the Illinois Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus Prevention Act.

10             minor  who  is  not  committed  to the Department of
11             Corrections, Juvenile Division under this subsection
12             and who is found to be a delinquent for  an  offense

15                  (2)  placed  in  accordance  with Section 5-29,
16             with or without  also  being  put  on  probation  or
17             conditional discharge;
18                  (3)  where  authorized under the Alcoholism and
19             Other  Drug  Abuse  and  Dependency   Act,   ordered
20             admitted  for  treatment  for  drug addiction by the
21             Department of Human Services;
22                  (4)  committed to the  Department  of  Children

24             minor is under 13 years of age;
25                  (5)  placed in detention for a  period  not  to
26             exceed  30  days,  either  as the exclusive order of

30             shall  be in a juvenile detention home and the minor
31             so detained shall be  10  years  of  age  or  older.
32             However,  the  30-day  limitation may be extended by

34             committed  to  the Department of Children and Family

 3             given credit on the dispositional order of detention
 4             for time spent in detention under Sections  5-10(2),
 5             5-14(b)(2),  5-23(1)(b), or 5-25(2) of this Act as a
 6             result of the offense for  which  the  dispositional
 7             order  was imposed.  The court may grant credit on a
 8             dispositional order of  detention  entered  under  a
 9             violation  of  probation or violation of conditional
10             discharge under Section 5-25 of this  Act  for  time
11             spent in detention before the filing of the petition
12             alleging  the  violation.   A  minor  shall  not  be
13             deprived  of  credit  for  time  spent  in detention
14             before the filing of a  violation  of  probation  or
15             conditional  discharge  alleging the same or related
16             act(s); or
17                  (6)  ordered    partially     or     completely
18             emancipated in accordance with the provisions of the
19             Emancipation of Mature Minors Act; or.
20                  (7)  subject  to  having  his  or  her driver's
21             license or driving privilege suspended until  he  or
22             she attains 18 years of age.
23             (b)  A minor found to be delinquent may be committed
24        to  the  Department  of  Corrections,  Juvenile Division,
25        under Section 5-33 if the minor is 13  years  of  age  or
26        older,  provided that the commitment to the Department of
27        Corrections, Juvenile Division, shall be made only  if  a
28        term  of  incarceration  is  permitted  by law for adults
29        found guilty of the  offense  for  which  the  minor  was
30        adjudicated delinquent.  The time during which a minor is
31        in  custody  before  being released upon the request of a
32        parent, guardian or custodian shall be considered as time
33        spent in detention.
34        (1.1)  When a minor is found  to  be  delinquent  for  an
                            -19-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    offense  which  is  a  violation  of  the Illinois Controlled
 2    Substances Act or the Cannabis Control Act and made a ward of
 3    the court, the court may enter a disposition order  requiring
 4    the minor to undergo assessment, counseling or treatment in a
 5    substance  abuse  program approved by the Department of Human
 6    Services.
 7        (2)  Any order of disposition other  than  commitment  to
 8    the Department of Corrections, Juvenile Division, may provide
 9    for protective supervision under Section 5-26 and may include
10    an order of protection under Section 5-27.
11        (3)  Unless   the   order  of  disposition  expressly  so
12    provides, it does not operate to  close  proceedings  on  the
13    pending  petition, but is subject to modification until final
14    closing and discharge of the proceedings under Section 5-34.
15        (4)  In addition to any other order of  disposition,  the
16    court  may  order  any  minor  found to be delinquent to make
17    restitution, in monetary  or  non-monetary  form,  under  the
18    terms  and conditions of Section 5-5-6 of the Unified Code of
19    Corrections, except that the "presentence  hearing"  referred
20    to therein shall be the dispositional hearing for purposes of
21    this  Section. The parent, guardian or legal custodian of the
22    minor may be ordered by the court to pay some or all  of  the
23    restitution  on  the minor's behalf, pursuant to the Parental
24    Responsibility Law, as now or hereafter amended.  The State's
25    Attorney is authorized to act on  behalf  of  any  victim  in
26    seeking  restitution in proceedings under this Section, up to
27    the maximum amount allowed  in  Section  5  of  the  Parental
28    Responsibility Law.
29        (5)  Any   order  for  disposition  where  the  minor  is
30    committed or placed in accordance  with  Section  5-29  shall
31    provide  for  the  parents  or guardian of the estate of such
32    minor to pay to the legal custodian or guardian of the person
33    of the minor such sums as are determined by the custodian  or
34    guardian  of  the  person  of  the minor as necessary for the
                            -20-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    minor's needs. Such  payments  may  not  exceed  the  maximum
 2    amounts  provided  for  by  Section  9.1  of the Children and
 3    Family Services Act.
 4        (6)  Whenever the order of disposition requires the minor
 5    to attend school or participate in a program of training, the
 6    truant officer or designated school official shall  regularly
 7    report  to  the  court  if the minor is a chronic or habitual
 8    truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code.
 9        (7)  In no event shall a delinquent  minor  be  committed
10    for  a  period  of time in excess of that period for which an
11    adult could be committed for the same act.
12        (8)  A minor found to  be  delinquent  for  reasons  that
13    include a violation of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of
14    1961  shall  be  ordered to perform community service for not
15    less than 30 and  not  more  than  120  hours,  if  community
16    service  is  available  in  the  jurisdiction.  The community
17    service shall include,  but  need  not  be  limited  to,  the
18    cleanup  and  repair  of  the  damage  that was caused by the
19    violation or  similar  damage  to  property  located  in  the
20    municipality  or county in which the violation occurred.  The
21    order may be in addition to any  other  order  authorized  by
22    this Section.
23        (9)  In  addition  to any other order of disposition, the
24    court shall order any minor found to be delinquent for an act
25    which would constitute criminal  sexual  assault,  aggravated
26    criminal  sexual abuse, or criminal sexual abuse if committed
27    by an adult to undergo medical testing to  determine  whether
28    the   defendant   has   any  sexually  transmissible  disease
29    including a test for infection  with  human  immunodeficiency
30    virus  (HIV)  or  any  other  identified  causative agency of
31    acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).  Any medical  test
32    shall  be  performed  only  by appropriately licensed medical
33    practitioners and may  include  an  analysis  of  any  bodily
34    fluids  as  well  as  an  examination  of the minor's person.
                            -21-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    Except as otherwise provided by law, the results of the  test
 2    shall  be kept strictly confidential by all medical personnel
 3    involved in the testing and must be personally delivered in a
 4    sealed envelope to the  judge  of  the  court  in  which  the
 5    disposition  order  was entered for the judge's inspection in
 6    camera.  Acting in accordance with the best interests of  the
 7    victim and the public, the judge shall have the discretion to
 8    determine to whom the results of the testing may be revealed.
 9    The  court  shall notify the minor of the results of the test
10    for infection with the human  immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV).
11    The  court  shall  also notify the victim if requested by the
12    victim, and if the victim is under  the  age  of  15  and  if
13    requested  by  the  victim's  parents  or legal guardian, the
14    court shall notify the victim's parents or the legal guardian
15    of the results of the  test  for  infection  with  the  human
16    immunodeficiency   virus  (HIV).   The  court  shall  provide
17    information on the availability of HIV testing and counseling
18    at Department of Public Health facilities to all  parties  to
19    whom  the  results  of  the  testing are revealed.  The court
20    shall order that the cost of any test shall be  paid  by  the
21    county and may be taxed as costs against the minor.
22        (10)  When  a  court  finds  a minor to be delinquent the
23    court shall, before making a disposition under this  Section,
24    make  a finding whether the offense committed either: (i) was
25    related to or in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
26    organized gang or was motivated by the minor's membership  in
27    or  allegiance  to  an  organized  gang,  or  (ii) involved a
28    violation of paragraph (13) of subsection (a) of the Criminal
29    Code of 1961, a violation of any Section of Article 24 of the
30    Criminal Code of 1961, or a violation  of  any  statute  that
31    involved  the  wrongful  use  of  a  firearm.   If  the court
32    determines the question in the  affirmative,  and  the  court
33    does  not  commit the minor to the Department of Corrections,
34    Juvenile Division, the court shall order the minor to perform
                            -22-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    community service for not less than 30 hours  nor  more  than
 2    120  hours,  provided  that community service is available in
 3    the jurisdiction and is funded and  approved  by  the  county
 4    board  of  the  county  where the offense was committed.  The
 5    community service shall include, but need not be limited  to,
 6    the cleanup and repair of any damage caused by a violation of
 7    Section  21-1.3  of  the  Criminal  Code  of 1961 and similar
 8    damage to property located in the municipality or  county  in
 9    which  the violation occurred.  When possible and reasonable,
10    the community service  shall  be  performed  in  the  minor's
11    neighborhood.   This  order shall be in addition to any other
12    order authorized by this Section except for an order to place
13    the minor in the custody of the  Department  of  Corrections,
14    Juvenile   Division.   For  the  purposes  of  this  Section,
15    "organized gang" has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 10
16    of the Illinois Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus Prevention Act.
