Short description: 
CD CORR-3RD CLASS 2-CLASS X                                                

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Unified Code of Corrections.  In a provision requiring      
   certain offenders who have been convicted at least 3 times of a  Class      
   2  or  greater  class  felony  to  be  sentenced as Class X offenders,      
   deletes a requirement that 2 of the felonies  must  have  occurred  in      
   Illinois.   Provides  that  a  person  sentenced as a Class X offender      
   pursuant to that provision is not eligible to apply for treatment as a      
   condition of probation as provided in the Alcoholism  and  Other  Drug      
   Abuse and Dependency Act.  Effective immediately.                           
        SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 1.                                                
        Further amends the Unified Code of Corrections.  In  a  provision      
   requiring  certain  defendants convicted at least 3 times of a Class 2      
   or greater Class felony to be sentenced as Class X defendants, deletes      
   the requirement that the first 2 convictions be  Class  2  or  greater      
   Class  felonies.   Provides,  instead,  that  the  defendant  shall be      
   sentenced as a Class X defendant if he or she is convicted of a  Class      
   1  or  2  felony,  after  having  been twice convicted in any state or      
   federal court of an offense that contains  the  same  elements  as  an      
   offense  now  classified  in  Illinois  as  a Class 2 or greater Class      
   felony.
