| In addition, any mobile or portable equipment used in the |
| commission of an
act which is in violation of Section 7g of the | Metropolitan Water Reclamation
District Act shall be subject to | seizure and forfeiture under the same
procedures provided in | this Article for the seizure and forfeiture of vessels,
| vehicles and aircraft, and any such equipment shall be deemed a | vessel, vehicle
or aircraft for purposes of this Article.
| When a person discharges a firearm at another individual | from a vehicle with
the knowledge and consent of the owner of | the vehicle and with the intent to
cause death or great bodily | harm to that individual and as a result causes
death or great | bodily harm to that individual, the vehicle shall be subject to
| seizure and forfeiture under the same procedures provided in | this Article for

(c), or (d) of this Section.
| If the spouse of the owner of a vehicle seized for

| Illinois Vehicle Code,
a violation of
subdivision (c-1)(1), | (c-1)(2), (c-1)(3), (d)(1)(A), or (d)(1)(D)
of Section 11-501 | of the Illinois Vehicle
Code, or Section 9-3 of this
Code makes | a showing
that the seized vehicle is the only source of | transportation and it is
determined that the financial hardship | to the family as a result of the seizure
outweighs the benefit | to the State from the seizure, the vehicle may be
forfeited to | the spouse or family member and the title to the vehicle shall | be
transferred to the spouse or family member who is properly | licensed and who
requires the use of the vehicle for employment |
| or family transportation
purposes. A written declaration of | forfeiture of a vehicle under this
Section shall be sufficient | cause for the title to be transferred to the spouse
or family | member. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply only to | one
forfeiture per vehicle. If the vehicle is the subject of a | subsequent
forfeiture proceeding by virtue of a subsequent | conviction of either spouse or
the family member, the spouse or | family member to whom the vehicle was
forfeited under the first | forfeiture proceeding may not utilize the
provisions of this | paragraph in another forfeiture proceeding. If the owner of
the | vehicle seized owns more than one vehicle,
the procedure set | out in this paragraph may be used for only one vehicle.
| Property declared contraband under Section 40 of the | Illinois Streetgang
Terrorism Omnibus Prevention Act may be | seized and forfeited under this
Article.
