 2        AMENDMENT NO.     .  Amend Senate Bill 2161 by  replacing
 3    everything after the enacting clause with the following:

 4        "Section  5.   The  Illinois  Vehicle  Code is amended by
 5    adding Section 4-214.1 as follows:

 6        (625 ILCS 5/4-214.1 new)
 7        Sec. 4-214.1.  Failure to pay fines, charges,  and  costs
 8    on an abandoned vehicle.
 9        (a)  Whenever any resident of this State fails to pay any
10    fine,  charge,  or  cost  imposed  for a violation of Section
11    4-201 of this  Code,  or  a  similar  provision  of  a  local
12    ordinance,  the clerk may notify the Secretary of State, on a
13    report prescribed by the Secretary, and the  Secretary  shall
14    prohibit  the  renewal,  reissue,  or  reinstatement  of  the
15    resident's driving privileges until the fine, charge, or cost
16    has been paid in full.  The clerk shall provide notice to the
17    driver,  at  the  driver's last known address as shown on the
18    court's records, stating that the action will be effective on
19    the 46th day following  the  date  of  the  above  notice  if
20    payment is not received in full by the court of venue.
21        (b)  Following  receipt of the report from the clerk, the
22    Secretary of State shall make  the  proper  notation  to  the
 
                            -2-            LRB9214970DHmbam01
 1    driver's   file   to   prohibit   the  renewal,  reissue,  or
 2    reinstatement of the driver's driving privileges.  Except  as
 3    provided  in  subsection  (d)  of  this Section, the notation
 4    shall not be removed  from  the  driver's  record  until  the
 5    driver satisfies the outstanding fine, charge, or cost and an
 6    appropriate  notice  on a form prescribed by the Secretary is
 7    received by the Secretary from the court  of  venue,  stating
 8    that  the  fine,  charge, or cost has been paid in full. Upon
 9    payment in full of a fine, charge, or court  cost  which  has
10    previously  been  reported  under this Section as unpaid, the
11    clerk of the court shall present the  driver  with  a  signed
12    receipt  containing the seal of the court indicating that the
13    fine, charge, or cost  has  been  paid  in  full,  and  shall
14    forward  immediately  to  the  Secretary  of  State  a notice
15    stating that the fine, charge, or cost has been paid in full.
16        (c)  Notwithstanding the receipt of  a  report  from  the
17    clerk  as  prescribed  in  subsection  (a),  nothing  in this
18    Section is intended to  place  any  responsibility  upon  the
19    Secretary  of  State  to  provide  independent  notice to the
20    driver of any  potential  action  to  disallow  the  renewal,
21    reissue, or reinstatement of the driver's driving privileges.
22        (d)  The  Secretary  of  State  shall  renew, reissue, or
23    reinstate a driver's driving privileges which were previously
24    refused under this Section upon presentation of  an  original
25    receipt  which  is  signed  by  the  clerk  of  the court and
26    contains the seal of the  court  indicating  that  the  fine,
27    charge,  or  cost  has  been  paid in full.  The Secretary of
28    State shall retain the receipt for his or her records.".
