following requirements are satisfied: | ||
(A) The third offense was committed after July 3, | ||

conviction on the second offense. | ||

that trial. After a plea or verdict or finding of guilty | ||
and before sentence is imposed, the prosecutor may file | ||
with the court a verified written statement signed by the | ||
State's Attorney concerning any former conviction of an | ||
offense set forth in this Section rendered against the | ||
defendant. The court shall then cause the defendant to be | ||
brought before it; shall inform the defendant of the | ||
allegations of the statement so filed, and of his or her | ||
right to a hearing before the court on the issue of that | ||
former conviction and of his or her right to counsel at | ||
that hearing; and unless the defendant admits such | ||
conviction, shall hear and determine the issue, and shall | ||

Section shall be prima facie evidence of that former | ||
conviction; and a duly authenticated copy of the record of | ||

granted, or from sentence and parole supervision (if any) | ||
imposed pursuant to that former conviction, shall be prima | ||
facie evidence of that release or discharge. | ||
(8) Any claim that a previous conviction offered by the | ||
prosecution is not a former conviction of an offense set | ||
forth in this Section because of the existence of any |
exceptions described in this Section, is waived unless duly | ||
raised at the hearing on that conviction, or unless the | ||
prosecution's proof shows the existence of the exceptions | ||
described in this Section. | ||

separately brought and tried and arise out of different series | ||

and the person is under 18 years of age at the time of the | ||
commission of the offense, the court, at the sentencing hearing | ||

appropriate sentence: | ||

maturity at the time of the offense, including the ability | ||
to consider risks and consequences of behavior, and the | ||
presence of cognitive or developmental disability, or | ||
both, if any; | ||
(2) whether the person was subjected to outside | ||
pressure, including peer pressure, familial pressure, or | ||
negative influences; | ||
(3) the person's family, home environment, educational | ||

(9) any other information the court finds relevant and | ||

aggravating factor. | ||
(b) Except as provided in subsection (c), the court may | ||
sentence the defendant to any disposition authorized for the | ||
class of the offense of which he or she was found guilty as | ||
described in Article 4.5 of this Code, and may, in its | ||
discretion, decline to impose any otherwise applicable | ||
sentencing enhancement based upon firearm possession, | ||
possession with personal discharge, or possession with | ||
personal discharge that proximately causes great bodily harm, | ||
permanent disability, permanent disfigurement, or death to |
another person. | ||
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if the | ||
defendant is convicted of first degree murder and would | ||
otherwise be subject to sentencing under clause (iii), (iv), | ||
(v), or (vii) of subsection (c) of Section 5-8-1 of this Code | ||
based on the category of persons identified therein, the court | ||
shall impose a sentence of not less than 40 years of | ||
imprisonment. In addition, the court may, in its discretion, | ||
decline to impose the sentencing enhancements based upon the | ||
possession or use of a firearm during the commission of the | ||
