Section 5-822 as follows:
 
    (705 ILCS 405/5-130)
    Sec. 5-130. Excluded jurisdiction.
    (1)(a) The definition of delinquent minor under Section
5-120 of this Article shall not apply to any minor who at the
time of an offense was at least 16 15 years of age and who is
charged with: (i) first degree murder, (ii) aggravated criminal
sexual assault, or (iii) aggravated battery with a firearm as
described in Section 12-4.2 or subdivision (e)(1), (e)(2),
(e)(3), or (e)(4) of Section 12-3.05 where the minor personally
discharged a firearm as defined in Section 2-15.5 of the
Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, (iv) armed
robbery when the armed robbery was committed with a firearm, or
(v) aggravated vehicular hijacking when the hijacking was
committed with a firearm.
    These charges and all other charges arising out of the same
incident shall be prosecuted under the criminal laws of this
State.
    (b)(i) If before trial or plea an information or indictment
is filed that does not charge an offense specified in paragraph
(a) of this subsection (1) the State's Attorney may proceed on
any lesser charge or charges, but only in Juvenile Court under
the provisions of this Article. The State's Attorney may
proceed on a lesser charge if before trial the minor defendant
knowingly and with advice of counsel waives, in writing, his or
her right to have the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
    (ii) If before trial or plea an information or indictment
is filed that includes one or more charges specified in
paragraph (a) of this subsection (1) and additional charges
that are not specified in that paragraph, all of the charges
arising out of the same incident shall be prosecuted under the
Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012.
    (c)(i) If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of any
offense covered by paragraph (a) of this subsection (1), then,
in sentencing the minor, the court shall sentence the minor
under Section 5-4.5-105 of the Unified Code of Corrections have
available any or all dispositions prescribed for that offense
under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
    (ii) If after trial or plea the court finds that the minor
committed an offense not covered by paragraph (a) of this
subsection (1), that finding shall not invalidate the verdict
or the prosecution of the minor under the criminal laws of the
State; however, unless the State requests a hearing for the
purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter V of the Unified
Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed under Sections
5-705 and 5-710 of this Article. To request a hearing, the
State must file a written motion within 10 days following the
entry of a finding or the return of a verdict. Reasonable
notice of the motion shall be given to the minor or his or her
counsel. If the motion is made by the State, the court shall
conduct a hearing to determine if the minor should be sentenced
under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections. In making
its determination, the court shall consider among other
matters: (a) whether there is evidence that the offense was
committed in an aggressive and premeditated manner; (b) the age
of the minor; (c) the previous history of the minor; (d)
whether there are facilities particularly available to the
Juvenile Court or the Department of Juvenile Justice for the
treatment and rehabilitation of the minor; (e) whether the
security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f) whether the minor
possessed a deadly weapon when committing the offense. The
rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial. If after
the hearing the court finds that the minor should be sentenced
under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections, then the
court shall sentence the minor under Section 5-4.5-105 of the
Unified Code of Corrections accordingly having available to it
any or all dispositions so prescribed.

secondary school, community college, college, or university.
These charges and all other charges arising out of the same
incident shall be prosecuted under the criminal laws of this
State.
    (b)(i) If before trial or plea an information or indictment
is filed that does not charge an offense specified in paragraph
(a) of this subsection (3) the State's Attorney may proceed on

advice of counsel waives, in writing, his or her right to have
the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
    (ii) If before trial or plea an information or indictment
is filed that includes one or more charges specified in
paragraph (a) of this subsection (3) and additional charges
that are not specified in that paragraph, all of the charges
arising out of the same incident shall be prosecuted under the
criminal laws of this State.

5-705 and 5-710 of this Article. To request a hearing, the
State must file a written motion within 10 days following the

notice of the motion shall be given to the minor or his or her
counsel. If the motion is made by the State, the court shall

    (b)(i) If before trial or plea an information or indictment

criminal sexual assault, or aggravated kidnaping, the State's
Attorney may proceed on any lesser charge or charges, but only
in Juvenile Court under the provisions of this Article. The

prosecuted under the criminal laws of this State.
    (c)(i) If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of
first degree murder committed during the course of aggravated
criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual assault, or
aggravated kidnaping, in sentencing the minor, the court shall
have available any or all dispositions prescribed for that
offense under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
    (ii) If the minor was not yet 15 years of age at the time of
the offense, and if after trial or plea the court finds that
the minor committed an offense other than first degree murder
committed during the course of either aggravated criminal

kidnapping, the finding shall not invalidate the verdict or the
prosecution of the minor under the criminal laws of the State;
however, unless the State requests a hearing for the purpose of
sentencing the minor under Chapter V of the Unified Code of
Corrections, the Court must proceed under Sections 5-705 and
5-710 of this Article. To request a hearing, the State must
file a written motion within 10 days following the entry of a
finding or the return of a verdict. Reasonable notice of the
motion shall be given to the minor or his or her counsel. If
the motion is made by the State, the court shall conduct a

under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections. In making
its determination, the court shall consider among other
matters: (a) whether there is evidence that the offense was
committed in an aggressive and premeditated manner; (b) the age
of the minor; (c) the previous delinquent history of the minor;
(d) whether there are facilities particularly available to the

treatment and rehabilitation of the minor; (e) whether the best
interest of the minor and the security of the public require

and (f) whether the minor possessed a deadly weapon when

as if at trial. If after the hearing the court finds that the
minor should be sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code

Code of 2012 when the minor is subject to prosecution under the
criminal laws of this State as a result of the application of
the provisions of Section 5-125, or subsection (1) or (2) of
this Section. These charges and all other charges arising out
of the same incident shall be prosecuted under the criminal
laws of this State.
    (b)(i) If before trial or plea an information or indictment
is filed that does not charge an offense specified in paragraph
(a) of this subsection (5), the State's Attorney may proceed on
any lesser charge or charges, but only in Juvenile Court under
the provisions of this Article. The State's Attorney may
proceed under the criminal laws of this State on a lesser
charge if before trial the minor defendant knowingly and with
advice of counsel waives, in writing, his or her right to have
the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
    (ii) If before trial or plea an information or indictment
is filed that includes one or more charges specified in
paragraph (a) of this subsection (5) and additional charges

in sentencing the minor, the court shall have available any or
all dispositions prescribed for that offense under Chapter V of
the Unified Code of Corrections.
    (ii) If after trial or plea the court finds that the minor
committed an offense not covered by paragraph (a) of this
subsection (5), the conviction shall not invalidate the verdict
or the prosecution of the minor under the criminal laws of this
State; however, unless the State requests a hearing for the
purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter V of the Unified
Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed under Sections
5-705 and 5-710 of this Article. To request a hearing, the
State must file a written motion within 10 days following the
entry of a finding or the return of a verdict. Reasonable
notice of the motion shall be given to the minor or his or her
counsel. If the motion is made by the State, the court shall

prosecution under the criminal laws of this State.
    (7) The procedures set out in this Article for the
investigation, arrest and prosecution of juvenile offenders
shall not apply to minors who are excluded from jurisdiction of
the Juvenile Court, except that minors under 18 years of age
shall be kept separate from confined adults.
    (8) Nothing in this Act prohibits or limits the prosecution
of any minor for an offense committed on or after his or her
18th birthday even though he or she is at the time of the
offense a ward of the court.
    (9) If an original petition for adjudication of wardship
alleges the commission by a minor 13 years of age or over of an
act that constitutes a crime under the laws of this State, the
minor, with the consent of his or her counsel, may, at any time
before commencement of the adjudicatory hearing, file with the
court a motion that criminal prosecution be ordered and that
the petition be dismissed insofar as the act or acts involved
in the criminal proceedings are concerned. If such a motion is
filed as herein provided, the court shall enter its order
accordingly.
    (10) If, prior to August 12, 2005 (the effective date of
Public Act 94-574), a minor is charged with a violation of
Section 401 of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act under the
criminal laws of this State, other than a minor charged with a
Class X felony violation of the Illinois Controlled Substances
Act or the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection
Act, any party including the minor or the court sua sponte may,
before trial, move for a hearing for the purpose of trying and
sentencing the minor as a delinquent minor. To request a
hearing, the party must file a motion prior to trial.
Reasonable notice of the motion shall be given to all parties.
On its own motion or upon the filing of a motion by one of the
parties including the minor, the court shall conduct a hearing
to determine whether the minor should be tried and sentenced as
a delinquent minor under this Article. In making its
determination, the court shall consider among other matters:
        (a) The age of the minor;
        (b) Any previous delinquent or criminal history of the
    minor;
        (c) Any previous abuse or neglect history of the minor;
        (d) Any mental health or educational history of the
    minor, or both; and
        (e) Whether there is probable cause to support the
    charge, whether the minor is charged through
    accountability, and whether there is evidence the minor
    possessed a deadly weapon or caused serious bodily harm
    during the offense.
    Any material that is relevant and reliable shall be
admissible at the hearing. In all cases, the judge shall enter
an order permitting prosecution under the criminal laws of
Illinois unless the judge makes a finding based on a
preponderance of the evidence that the minor would be amenable
to the care, treatment, and training programs available through
the facilities of the juvenile court based on an evaluation of
the factors listed in this subsection (10).
    (11) The changes made to this Section by Public Act 98-61
apply to a minor who has been arrested or taken into custody on

    (705 ILCS 405/5-407)
    Sec. 5-407. Processing of juvenile in possession of a
firearm.
    (a) If a law enforcement officer detains a minor pursuant
to Section 10-27.1A of the School Code, the officer shall
deliver the minor to the nearest juvenile officer, in the
manner prescribed by subsection (2) of Section 5-405 of this
Act. The juvenile officer shall deliver the minor without
unnecessary delay to the court or to the place designated by
rule or order of court for the reception of minors. In no event
shall the minor be eligible for any other disposition by the
juvenile police officer, notwithstanding the provisions of
subsection (3) of Section 5-405 of this Act.
    (b) Minors not excluded from this Act's jurisdiction under
subsection (3)(a) of Section 5-130 of this Act shall be brought
before a judicial officer within 40 hours, exclusive of
Saturdays, Sundays, and court-designated holidays, for a
detention hearing to determine whether he or she shall be
further held in custody. If the court finds that there is
probable cause to believe that the minor is a delinquent minor
by virtue of his or her violation of item (4) of subsection (a)
of Section 24-1 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal
Code of 2012 while on school grounds, that finding shall create
a presumption that immediate and urgent necessity exists under
subdivision (2) of Section 5-501 of this Act. Once the
presumption of immediate and urgent necessity has been raised,
the burden of demonstrating the lack of immediate and urgent
necessity shall be on any party that is opposing detention for
the minor. Should the court order detention pursuant to this
Section, the minor shall be detained, pending the results of a
court-ordered psychological evaluation to determine if the
minor is a risk to himself, herself, or others. Upon receipt of
the psychological evaluation, the court shall review the
determination regarding the existence of urgent and immediate
necessity. The court shall consider the psychological
evaluation in conjunction with the other factors identified in
subdivision (2) of Section 5-501 of this Act in order to make a
de novo determination regarding whether it is a matter of
immediate and urgent necessity for the protection of the minor
or of the person or property of another that the minor be
detained or placed in a shelter care facility. In addition to
the pre-trial conditions found in Section 5-505 of this Act,
the court may order the minor to receive counseling and any
other services recommended by the psychological evaluation as a
condition for release of the minor.
    (c) Upon making a determination that the student presents a
risk to himself, herself, or others, the court shall issue an
order restraining the student from entering the property of the
school if he or she has been suspended or expelled from the
school as a result of possessing a firearm. The order shall
restrain the student from entering the school and school owned
or leased property, including any conveyance owned, leased, or
contracted by the school to transport students to or from
school or a school-related activity. The order shall remain in
effect until such time as the court determines that the student
no longer presents a risk to himself, herself, or others.
    (d) Psychological evaluations ordered pursuant to
subsection (b) of this Section and statements made by the minor
during the course of these evaluations, shall not be admissible
on the issue of delinquency during the course of any
adjudicatory hearing held under this Act.
    (e) In this Section:
    "School" means any public or private elementary or
secondary school.
    "School grounds" includes the real property comprising any
school, any conveyance owned, leased, or contracted by a school
to transport students to or from school or a school-related
activity, or any public way within 1,000 feet of the real
property comprising any school.

    any conveyance owned, leased, or contracted by a school or
    school district to transport students to or from school or
    a school related activity, regardless of the time of day or
    the time of year, the juvenile judge designated to hear and

    been adjudicated delinquent or found guilty for commission
    of an act that constitutes a forcible felony under the laws

            history of the minor,

                (B) whether there is a reasonable likelihood
            that the minor can be rehabilitated before the
            expiration of the juvenile court's jurisdiction;
                (C) the adequacy of the punishment or
            services.
        In considering these factors, the court shall give
    greater weight to the seriousness of the alleged offense

    (3) Discretionary transfer.
        (a) If a petition alleges commission by a minor 13
    years of age or over of an act that constitutes a crime
    under the laws of this State and, on motion of the State's
    Attorney to permit prosecution of the minor under the
    criminal laws, a Juvenile Judge assigned by the Chief Judge
    of the Circuit to hear and determine those motions, after
    hearing but before commencement of the trial, finds that
    there is probable cause to believe that the allegations in
    the motion are true and that it is not in the best
    interests of the public to proceed under this Act, the
    court may enter an order permitting prosecution under the
    criminal laws.
        (b) In making its determination on the motion to permit
    prosecution under the criminal laws, the court shall
    consider among other matters:
            (i) the age of the minor;
            (ii) the history of the minor, including:
                (A) any previous delinquent or criminal
            history of the minor,
                (B) any previous abuse or neglect history of
            the minor, and
                (C) any mental health, physical, or
            educational history of the minor or combination of
            these factors;
            (iii) the circumstances of the offense, including:
                (A) the seriousness of the offense,
                (B) whether the minor is charged through
            accountability,
                (C) whether there is evidence the offense was
            committed in an aggressive and premeditated
            manner,
                (D) whether there is evidence the offense
            caused serious bodily harm,
                (E) whether there is evidence the minor
            possessed a deadly weapon;
            (iv) the advantages of treatment within the
        juvenile justice system including whether there are
        facilities or programs, or both, particularly
        available in the juvenile system;
            (v) whether the security of the public requires
        sentencing under Chapter V of the Unified Code of
        Corrections:
                (A) the minor's history of services, including
            the minor's willingness to participate
            meaningfully in available services;
                (B) whether there is a reasonable likelihood
            that the minor can be rehabilitated before the
            expiration of the juvenile court's jurisdiction;
                (C) the adequacy of the punishment or
            services.
        In considering these factors, the court shall give
    greater weight to the seriousness of the alleged offense,
    and the minor's prior record of delinquency than to the
    other factors listed in this subsection.
    (4) The rules of evidence for this hearing shall be the
same as under Section 5-705 of this Act. A minor must be
represented in court by counsel before the hearing may be
commenced.
    (5) If criminal proceedings are instituted, the petition
for adjudication of wardship shall be dismissed insofar as the
act or acts involved in the criminal proceedings. Taking of
evidence in a trial on petition for adjudication of wardship is
a bar to criminal proceedings based upon the conduct alleged in
the petition.
    (6) When criminal prosecution is permitted under this
Section and a finding of guilt is entered, the criminal court
shall sentence the minor under Section 5-4.5-105 of the Unified
Code of Corrections.
    (7) The changes made to this Section by this amendatory Act
of the 99th General Assembly apply to a minor who has been
taken into custody on or after the effective date of this
amendatory Act of the 99th General Assembly.

    (705 ILCS 405/5-810)
    Sec. 5-810. Extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecutions.
    (1) (a) If the State's Attorney files a petition, at any
time prior to commencement of the minor's trial, to designate
the proceeding as an extended jurisdiction juvenile
prosecution and the petition alleges the commission by a minor
13 years of age or older of any offense which would be a felony
if committed by an adult, and, if the juvenile judge assigned
to hear and determine petitions to designate the proceeding as
an extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution determines that
there is probable cause to believe that the allegations in the
petition and motion are true, there is a rebuttable presumption
that the proceeding shall be designated as an extended
jurisdiction juvenile proceeding.
    (b) The judge shall enter an order designating the
proceeding as an extended jurisdiction juvenile proceeding
unless the judge makes a finding based on clear and convincing
evidence that sentencing under the Chapter V of the Unified
Code of Corrections would not be appropriate for the minor
based on an evaluation of the following factors:
        (i) the age of the minor;
        (ii) the history of the minor, including:
            (A) any previous delinquent or criminal history of
        the minor,
            (B) any previous abuse or neglect history of the
        minor, and
            (C) any mental health, physical and/or educational
        history of the minor;
        (iii) the circumstances of the offense, including:
            (A) the seriousness of the offense,
            (B) whether the minor is charged through
        accountability,
            (C) whether there is evidence the offense was
        committed in an aggressive and premeditated manner,
            (D) whether there is evidence the offense caused
        serious bodily harm,
            (E) whether there is evidence the minor possessed a
        deadly weapon;
        (iv) the advantages of treatment within the juvenile
    justice system including whether there are facilities or
    programs, or both, particularly available in the juvenile
    system;
        (v) whether the security of the public requires
    sentencing under Chapter V of the Unified Code of
    Corrections:
            (A) the minor's history of services, including the
        minor's willingness to participate meaningfully in
        available services;
            (B) whether there is a reasonable likelihood that
        the minor can be rehabilitated before the expiration of
        the juvenile court's jurisdiction;
            (C) the adequacy of the punishment or services.
    In considering these factors, the court shall give greater
weight to the seriousness of the alleged offense, and the
minor's prior record of delinquency than to other factors
listed in this subsection.
    (2) Procedures for extended jurisdiction juvenile
prosecutions. The State's Attorney may file a written motion
for a proceeding to be designated as an extended juvenile
jurisdiction prior to commencement of trial. Notice of the
motion shall be in compliance with Section 5-530. When the
State's Attorney files a written motion that a proceeding be
designated an extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution, the
court shall commence a hearing within 30 days of the filing of
the motion for designation, unless good cause is shown by the
prosecution or the minor as to why the hearing could not be
held within this time period. If the court finds good cause has
been demonstrated, then the hearing shall be held within 60
days of the filing of the motion. The hearings shall be open to
the public unless the judge finds that the hearing should be
closed for the protection of any party, victim or witness. If
the Juvenile Judge assigned to hear and determine a motion to
designate an extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution
determines that there is probable cause to believe that the
allegations in the petition and motion are true the court shall
grant the motion for designation. Information used by the court
in its findings or stated in or offered in connection with this
Section may be by way of proffer based on reliable information
offered by the State or the minor. All evidence shall be
admissible if it is relevant and reliable regardless of whether
it would be admissible under the rules of evidence.
    (3) Trial. A minor who is subject of an extended
jurisdiction juvenile prosecution has the right to trial by
jury. Any trial under this Section shall be open to the public.
    (4) Sentencing. If an extended jurisdiction juvenile
prosecution under subsection (1) results in a guilty plea, a
verdict of guilty, or a finding of guilt, the court shall
impose the following:
        (i) one or more juvenile sentences under Section 5-710;
    and
        (ii) an adult criminal sentence in accordance with the
    provisions of Section 5-4.5-105 of the Unified Code of
    Corrections Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
    the execution of which shall be stayed on the condition
    that the offender not violate the provisions of the
    juvenile sentence.
Any sentencing hearing under this Section shall be open to the
public.
    (5) If, after an extended jurisdiction juvenile
prosecution trial, a minor is convicted of a lesser-included
offense or of an offense that the State's Attorney did not
designate as an extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution,
the State's Attorney may file a written motion, within 10 days
of the finding of guilt, that the minor be sentenced as an
extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution offender. The court
shall rule on this motion using the factors found in paragraph
(1)(b) of Section 5-805. If the court denies the State's
Attorney's motion for sentencing under the extended
jurisdiction juvenile prosecution provision, the court shall
proceed to sentence the minor under Section 5-710.
    (6) When it appears that a minor convicted in an extended
jurisdiction juvenile prosecution under subsection (1) has
violated the conditions of his or her sentence, or is alleged
to have committed a new offense upon the filing of a petition
to revoke the stay, the court may, without notice, issue a
warrant for the arrest of the minor. After a hearing, if the
court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that the minor
committed a new offense, the court shall order execution of the
previously imposed adult criminal sentence. After a hearing, if
the court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that the
minor committed a violation of his or her sentence other than
by a new offense, the court may order execution of the
previously imposed adult criminal sentence or may continue him
or her on the existing juvenile sentence with or without
modifying or enlarging the conditions. Upon revocation of the
stay of the adult criminal sentence and imposition of that
sentence, the minor's extended jurisdiction juvenile status
shall be terminated. The on-going jurisdiction over the minor's
case shall be assumed by the adult criminal court and juvenile
court jurisdiction shall be terminated and a report of the
imposition of the adult sentence shall be sent to the
Department of State Police.
    (7) Upon successful completion of the juvenile sentence the
court shall vacate the adult criminal sentence.
    (8) Nothing in this Section precludes the State from filing
a motion for transfer under Section 5-805.

    Section 10. The Juvenile Court Act of 1987 is amended by
repealing Section 5-821.
 
    Section 15. The Unified Code of Corrections is amended by
adding Section 5-4.5-105 as follows:
 
    (730 ILCS 5/5-4.5-105 new)
    Sec. 5-4.5-105. SENTENCING OF INDIVIDUALS UNDER THE AGE OF
18 AT THE TIME OF THE COMMISSION OF AN OFFENSE.
    (a) On or after the effective date of this amendatory Act
of the 99th General Assembly, when a person commits an offense
and the person is under 18 years of age at the time of the
commission of the offense, the court, at the sentencing hearing
conducted under Section 5-4-1, shall consider the following
additional factors in mitigation in determining the
appropriate sentence:
        (1) the person's age, impetuosity, and level of
    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
    and social background, including any history of parental
    neglect, physical abuse, or other childhood trauma;

    participate in his or her defense;
        (8) the person's prior juvenile or criminal history;
    and
        (9) any other information the court finds relevant and
    reliable, including an expression of remorse, if
    appropriate. However, if the person, on advice of counsel
    chooses not to make a statement, the court shall not
    consider a lack of an expression of remorse as an
    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

personal discharge that proximately causes great bodily harm,
permanent disability, permanent disfigurement or death to
another person.

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,
