25 required as to a person who engages in the regular and

24 (1) In addition to the other requirements of this
25 paragraph (k), all persons who are not federally
26 licensed firearms dealers must also have complied with

SB2889- 100 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b

15 removed or altered has knowledge that the firearm is
16 stolen or converted.
17 (B) Paragraph (h) of subsection (A) does not include
18firearms sold within 6 months after enactment of Public Act

19 Section 35. The Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963 is
20amended by changing Section 112A-14 as follows:
21 (725 ILCS 5/112A-14) (from Ch. 38, par. 112A-14)
22 Sec. 112A-14. Domestic violence order of protection;
23remedies.
24 (a) (Blank).

SB2889- 106 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 (b) The court may order any of the remedies listed in this
2subsection (b). The remedies listed in this subsection (b)
3shall be in addition to other civil or criminal remedies
4available to petitioner.
5 (1) Prohibition of abuse. Prohibit respondent's
6 harassment, interference with personal liberty,
7 intimidation of a dependent, physical abuse, or willful
8 deprivation, as defined in this Article, if such abuse has
9 occurred or otherwise appears likely to occur if not
10 prohibited.
11 (2) Grant of exclusive possession of residence.
12 Prohibit respondent from entering or remaining in any
13 residence, household, or premises of the petitioner,
14 including one owned or leased by respondent, if petitioner
15 has a right to occupancy thereof. The grant of exclusive
16 possession of the residence, household, or premises shall
17 not affect title to real property, nor shall the court be
18 limited by the standard set forth in subsection (c-2) of
19 Section 501 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
20 Marriage Act.
21 (A) Right to occupancy. A party has a right to
22 occupancy of a residence or household if it is solely
23 or jointly owned or leased by that party, that party's
24 spouse, a person with a legal duty to support that
25 party or a minor child in that party's care, or by any
26 person or entity other than the opposing party that

SB2889- 107 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 authorizes that party's occupancy (e.g., a domestic
2 violence shelter). Standards set forth in subparagraph
3 (B) shall not preclude equitable relief.
4 (B) Presumption of hardships. If petitioner and
5 respondent each has the right to occupancy of a
6 residence or household, the court shall balance (i)
7 the hardships to respondent and any minor child or
8 dependent adult in respondent's care resulting from
9 entry of this remedy with (ii) the hardships to
10 petitioner and any minor child or dependent adult in
11 petitioner's care resulting from continued exposure to
12 the risk of abuse (should petitioner remain at the
13 residence or household) or from loss of possession of
14 the residence or household (should petitioner leave to
15 avoid the risk of abuse). When determining the balance
16 of hardships, the court shall also take into account
17 the accessibility of the residence or household.
18 Hardships need not be balanced if respondent does not
19 have a right to occupancy.
20 The balance of hardships is presumed to favor
21 possession by petitioner unless the presumption is
22 rebutted by a preponderance of the evidence, showing
23 that the hardships to respondent substantially
24 outweigh the hardships to petitioner and any minor
25 child or dependent adult in petitioner's care. The
26 court, on the request of petitioner or on its own

SB2889- 108 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 motion, may order respondent to provide suitable,
2 accessible, alternate housing for petitioner instead
3 of excluding respondent from a mutual residence or
4 household.
5 (3) Stay away order and additional prohibitions. Order
6 respondent to stay away from petitioner or any other
7 person protected by the domestic violence order of
8 protection, or prohibit respondent from entering or
9 remaining present at petitioner's school, place of
10 employment, or other specified places at times when
11 petitioner is present, or both, if reasonable, given the
12 balance of hardships. Hardships need not be balanced for
13 the court to enter a stay away order or prohibit entry if
14 respondent has no right to enter the premises.
15 (A) If a domestic violence order of protection
16 grants petitioner exclusive possession of the
17 residence, prohibits respondent from entering the
18 residence, or orders respondent to stay away from
19 petitioner or other protected persons, then the court
20 may allow respondent access to the residence to remove
21 items of clothing and personal adornment used
22 exclusively by respondent, medications, and other
23 items as the court directs. The right to access shall
24 be exercised on only one occasion as the court directs
25 and in the presence of an agreed-upon adult third
26 party or law enforcement officer.

SB2889- 109 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 (B) When the petitioner and the respondent attend
2 the same public, private, or non-public elementary,
3 middle, or high school, the court when issuing a
4 domestic violence order of protection and providing
5 relief shall consider the severity of the act, any
6 continuing physical danger or emotional distress to
7 the petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to
8 the petitioner and respondent under federal and State
9 law, the availability of a transfer of the respondent
10 to another school, a change of placement or a change of
11 program of the respondent, the expense, difficulty,
12 and educational disruption that would be caused by a
13 transfer of the respondent to another school, and any
14 other relevant facts of the case. The court may order
15 that the respondent not attend the public, private, or
16 non-public elementary, middle, or high school attended
17 by the petitioner, order that the respondent accept a
18 change of placement or change of program, as
19 determined by the school district or private or
20 non-public school, or place restrictions on the
21 respondent's movements within the school attended by
22 the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of
23 proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a
24 transfer, change of placement, or change of program of
25 the respondent is not available. The respondent also
26 bears the burden of production with respect to the

SB2889- 110 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 expense, difficulty, and educational disruption that
2 would be caused by a transfer of the respondent to
3 another school. A transfer, change of placement, or
4 change of program is not unavailable to the respondent
5 solely on the ground that the respondent does not
6 agree with the school district's or private or
7 non-public school's transfer, change of placement, or
8 change of program or solely on the ground that the
9 respondent fails or refuses to consent or otherwise
10 does not take an action required to effectuate a
11 transfer, change of placement, or change of program.
12 When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the
13 public, private, or non-public school attended by the
14 petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to
15 another attendance center within the respondent's
16 school district or private or non-public school, the
17 school district or private or non-public school shall
18 have sole discretion to determine the attendance
19 center to which the respondent is transferred. If the
20 court order results in a transfer of the minor
21 respondent to another attendance center, a change in
22 the respondent's placement, or a change of the
23 respondent's program, the parents, guardian, or legal
24 custodian of the respondent is responsible for
25 transportation and other costs associated with the
26 transfer or change.

SB2889- 111 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 (C) The court may order the parents, guardian, or
2 legal custodian of a minor respondent to take certain
3 actions or to refrain from taking certain actions to
4 ensure that the respondent complies with the order. If
5 the court orders a transfer of the respondent to
6 another school, the parents, guardian, or legal
7 custodian of the respondent is responsible for
8 transportation and other costs associated with the
9 change of school by the respondent.
10 (4) Counseling. Require or recommend the respondent to
11 undergo counseling for a specified duration with a social
12 worker, psychologist, clinical psychologist,
13 psychiatrist, family service agency, alcohol or substance
14 abuse program, mental health center guidance counselor,
15 agency providing services to elders, program designed for
16 domestic violence abusers, or any other guidance service
17 the court deems appropriate. The court may order the
18 respondent in any intimate partner relationship to report
19 to an Illinois Department of Human Services protocol
20 approved partner abuse intervention program for an
21 assessment and to follow all recommended treatment.
22 (5) Physical care and possession of the minor child.
23 In order to protect the minor child from abuse, neglect,
24 or unwarranted separation from the person who has been the
25 minor child's primary caretaker, or to otherwise protect
26 the well-being of the minor child, the court may do either

SB2889- 112 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 or both of the following: (i) grant petitioner physical
2 care or possession of the minor child, or both, or (ii)
3 order respondent to return a minor child to, or not remove
4 a minor child from, the physical care of a parent or person
5 in loco parentis.
6 If the respondent is charged with abuse (as defined in
7 Section 112A-3 of this Code) of a minor child, there shall
8 be a rebuttable presumption that awarding physical care to
9 respondent would not be in the minor child's best
10 interest.
11 (6) Temporary allocation of parental responsibilities
12 and significant decision-making responsibilities. Award
13 temporary significant decision-making responsibility to
14 petitioner in accordance with this Section, the Illinois
15 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, the Illinois
16 Parentage Act of 2015, and this State's Uniform
17 Child-Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act.
18 If the respondent is charged with abuse (as defined in
19 Section 112A-3 of this Code) of a minor child, there shall
20 be a rebuttable presumption that awarding temporary
21 significant decision-making responsibility to respondent
22 would not be in the child's best interest.
23 (7) Parenting time. Determine the parenting time, if
24 any, of respondent in any case in which the court awards
25 physical care or temporary significant decision-making
26 responsibility of a minor child to petitioner. The court

SB2889- 113 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 shall restrict or deny respondent's parenting time with a
2 minor child if the court finds that respondent has done or
3 is likely to do any of the following:
4 (i) abuse or endanger the minor child during
5 parenting time;
6 (ii) use the parenting time as an opportunity to
7 abuse or harass petitioner or petitioner's family or
8 household members;
9 (iii) improperly conceal or detain the minor
10 child; or
11 (iv) otherwise act in a manner that is not in the
12 best interests of the minor child.
13 The court shall not be limited by the standards set
14 forth in Section 603.10 of the Illinois Marriage and
15 Dissolution of Marriage Act. If the court grants parenting
16 time, the order shall specify dates and times for the
17 parenting time to take place or other specific parameters
18 or conditions that are appropriate. No order for parenting
19 time shall refer merely to the term "reasonable parenting
20 time". Petitioner may deny respondent access to the minor
21 child if, when respondent arrives for parenting time,
22 respondent is under the influence of drugs or alcohol and
23 constitutes a threat to the safety and well-being of
24 petitioner or petitioner's minor children or is behaving
25 in a violent or abusive manner. If necessary to protect
26 any member of petitioner's family or household from future

SB2889- 114 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 abuse, respondent shall be prohibited from coming to
2 petitioner's residence to meet the minor child for
3 parenting time, and the petitioner and respondent shall
4 submit to the court their recommendations for reasonable
5 alternative arrangements for parenting time. A person may
6 be approved to supervise parenting time only after filing
7 an affidavit accepting that responsibility and
8 acknowledging accountability to the court.
9 (8) Removal or concealment of minor child. Prohibit
10 respondent from removing a minor child from the State or
11 concealing the child within the State.
12 (9) Order to appear. Order the respondent to appear in
13 court, alone or with a minor child, to prevent abuse,
14 neglect, removal or concealment of the child, to return
15 the child to the custody or care of the petitioner, or to
16 permit any court-ordered interview or examination of the
17 child or the respondent.
18 (10) Possession of personal property. Grant petitioner
19 exclusive possession of personal property and, if
20 respondent has possession or control, direct respondent to
21 promptly make it available to petitioner, if:
22 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
23 property; or
24 (ii) the petitioner and respondent own the
25 property jointly; sharing it would risk abuse of
26 petitioner by respondent or is impracticable; and the

SB2889- 115 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 balance of hardships favors temporary possession by
2 petitioner.
3 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the
4 property is that it is marital property, the court may
5 award petitioner temporary possession thereof under the
6 standards of subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph only if a
7 proper proceeding has been filed under the Illinois
8 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as now or
9 hereafter amended.
10 No order under this provision shall affect title to
11 property.
12 (11) Protection of property. Forbid the respondent
13 from taking, transferring, encumbering, concealing,
14 damaging, or otherwise disposing of any real or personal
15 property, except as explicitly authorized by the court,
16 if:
17 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
18 property; or
19 (ii) the petitioner and respondent own the
20 property jointly, and the balance of hardships favors
21 granting this remedy.
22 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the
23 property is that it is marital property, the court may
24 grant petitioner relief under subparagraph (ii) of this
25 paragraph only if a proper proceeding has been filed under
26 the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as

SB2889- 116 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 now or hereafter amended.
2 The court may further prohibit respondent from
3 improperly using the financial or other resources of an
4 aged member of the family or household for the profit or
5 advantage of respondent or of any other person.
6 (11.5) Protection of animals. Grant the petitioner the
7 exclusive care, custody, or control of any animal owned,
8 possessed, leased, kept, or held by either the petitioner
9 or the respondent or a minor child residing in the
10 residence or household of either the petitioner or the
11 respondent and order the respondent to stay away from the
12 animal and forbid the respondent from taking,
13 transferring, encumbering, concealing, harming, or
14 otherwise disposing of the animal.
15 (12) Order for payment of support. Order respondent to
16 pay temporary support for the petitioner or any child in
17 the petitioner's care or over whom the petitioner has been
18 allocated parental responsibility, when the respondent has
19 a legal obligation to support that person, in accordance
20 with the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage
21 Act, which shall govern, among other matters, the amount
22 of support, payment through the clerk and withholding of
23 income to secure payment. An order for child support may
24 be granted to a petitioner with lawful physical care of a
25 child, or an order or agreement for physical care of a
26 child, prior to entry of an order allocating significant

SB2889- 117 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 decision-making responsibility. Such a support order shall
2 expire upon entry of a valid order allocating parental
3 responsibility differently and vacating petitioner's
4 significant decision-making responsibility unless
5 otherwise provided in the order.
6 (13) Order for payment of losses. Order respondent to
7 pay petitioner for losses suffered as a direct result of
8 the abuse. Such losses shall include, but not be limited
9 to, medical expenses, lost earnings or other support,
10 repair or replacement of property damaged or taken,
11 reasonable attorney's fees, court costs, and moving or
12 other travel expenses, including additional reasonable
13 expenses for temporary shelter and restaurant meals.
14 (i) Losses affecting family needs. If a party is
15 entitled to seek maintenance, child support, or
16 property distribution from the other party under the
17 Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
18 now or hereafter amended, the court may order
19 respondent to reimburse petitioner's actual losses, to
20 the extent that such reimbursement would be
21 "appropriate temporary relief", as authorized by
22 subsection (a)(3) of Section 501 of that Act.
23 (ii) Recovery of expenses. In the case of an
24 improper concealment or removal of a minor child, the
25 court may order respondent to pay the reasonable
26 expenses incurred or to be incurred in the search for

SB2889- 118 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 and recovery of the minor child, including, but not
2 limited to, legal fees, court costs, private
3 investigator fees, and travel costs.
4 (14) Prohibition of entry. Prohibit the respondent
5 from entering or remaining in the residence or household
6 while the respondent is under the influence of alcohol or
7 drugs and constitutes a threat to the safety and
8 well-being of the petitioner or the petitioner's children.
9 (14.5) Prohibition of firearm possession.
10 (A) A person who is subject to an existing
11 domestic violence order of protection issued under
12 this Code may not lawfully possess weapons or a valid
13 Firearm Owner's Identification Card under Section 8.2
14 of the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act.
15 (B) Any firearms in the possession of the
16 respondent, except as provided in subparagraph (C) of
17 this paragraph (14.5), shall be ordered by the court
18 to be turned over to a person with a valid Firearm
19 Owner's Identification Card for safekeeping. The court
20 shall issue an order that the respondent comply with
21 Section 9.5 of the Firearm Owners Identification Card
22 Act. the respondent's Firearm Owner's Identification
23 Card be turned over to the local law enforcement
24 agency, which in turn shall immediately mail the card
25 to the Department of State Police Firearm Owner's
26 Identification Card Office for safekeeping. The period

SB2889- 119 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 of safekeeping shall be for the duration of the
2 domestic violence order of protection. The firearm or
3 firearms and Firearm Owner's Identification Card, if
4 unexpired, shall at the respondent's request be
5 returned to the respondent at expiration of the
6 domestic violence order of protection.
7 (C) If the respondent is a peace officer as
8 defined in Section 2-13 of the Criminal Code of 2012,
9 the court shall order that any firearms used by the
10 respondent in the performance of his or her duties as a
11 peace officer be surrendered to the chief law
12 enforcement executive of the agency in which the
13 respondent is employed, who shall retain the firearms
14 for safekeeping for the duration of the domestic
15 violence order of protection.
16 (D) Upon expiration of the period of safekeeping,
17 if the firearms or Firearm Owner's Identification Card
18 cannot be returned to respondent because respondent
19 cannot be located, fails to respond to requests to
20 retrieve the firearms, or is not lawfully eligible to
21 possess a firearm, upon petition from the local law
22 enforcement agency, the court may order the local law
23 enforcement agency to destroy the firearms, use the
24 firearms for training purposes, or for any other
25 application as deemed appropriate by the local law
26 enforcement agency; or that the firearms be turned

SB2889- 120 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 over to a third party who is lawfully eligible to
2 possess firearms, and who does not reside with
3 respondent.
4 (15) Prohibition of access to records. If a domestic
5 violence order of protection prohibits respondent from
6 having contact with the minor child, or if petitioner's
7 address is omitted under subsection (b) of Section 112A-5
8 of this Code, or if necessary to prevent abuse or wrongful
9 removal or concealment of a minor child, the order shall
10 deny respondent access to, and prohibit respondent from
11 inspecting, obtaining, or attempting to inspect or obtain,
12 school or any other records of the minor child who is in
13 the care of petitioner.
14 (16) Order for payment of shelter services. Order
15 respondent to reimburse a shelter providing temporary
16 housing and counseling services to the petitioner for the
17 cost of the services, as certified by the shelter and
18 deemed reasonable by the court.
19 (17) Order for injunctive relief. Enter injunctive
20 relief necessary or appropriate to prevent further abuse
21 of a family or household member or to effectuate one of the
22 granted remedies, if supported by the balance of
23 hardships. If the harm to be prevented by the injunction
24 is abuse or any other harm that one of the remedies listed
25 in paragraphs (1) through (16) of this subsection is
26 designed to prevent, no further evidence is necessary to

SB2889- 121 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 establish that the harm is an irreparable injury.
2 (18) Telephone services.
3 (A) Unless a condition described in subparagraph
4 (B) of this paragraph exists, the court may, upon
5 request by the petitioner, order a wireless telephone
6 service provider to transfer to the petitioner the
7 right to continue to use a telephone number or numbers
8 indicated by the petitioner and the financial
9 responsibility associated with the number or numbers,
10 as set forth in subparagraph (C) of this paragraph. In
11 this paragraph (18), the term "wireless telephone
12 service provider" means a provider of commercial
13 mobile service as defined in 47 U.S.C. 332. The
14 petitioner may request the transfer of each telephone
15 number that the petitioner, or a minor child in his or
16 her custody, uses. The clerk of the court shall serve
17 the order on the wireless telephone service provider's
18 agent for service of process provided to the Illinois
19 Commerce Commission. The order shall contain all of
20 the following:
21 (i) The name and billing telephone number of
22 the account holder including the name of the
23 wireless telephone service provider that serves
24 the account.
25 (ii) Each telephone number that will be
26 transferred.

SB2889- 122 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 (iii) A statement that the provider transfers
2 to the petitioner all financial responsibility for
3 and right to the use of any telephone number
4 transferred under this paragraph.
5 (B) A wireless telephone service provider shall
6 terminate the respondent's use of, and shall transfer
7 to the petitioner use of, the telephone number or
8 numbers indicated in subparagraph (A) of this
9 paragraph unless it notifies the petitioner, within 72
10 hours after it receives the order, that one of the
11 following applies:
12 (i) The account holder named in the order has
13 terminated the account.
14 (ii) A difference in network technology would
15 prevent or impair the functionality of a device on
16 a network if the transfer occurs.
17 (iii) The transfer would cause a geographic or
18 other limitation on network or service provision
19 to the petitioner.
20 (iv) Another technological or operational
21 issue would prevent or impair the use of the
22 telephone number if the transfer occurs.
23 (C) The petitioner assumes all financial
24 responsibility for and right to the use of any
25 telephone number transferred under this paragraph. In
26 this paragraph, "financial responsibility" includes

SB2889- 123 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 monthly service costs and costs associated with any
2 mobile device associated with the number.
3 (D) A wireless telephone service provider may
4 apply to the petitioner its routine and customary
5 requirements for establishing an account or
6 transferring a number, including requiring the
7 petitioner to provide proof of identification,
8 financial information, and customer preferences.
9 (E) Except for willful or wanton misconduct, a
10 wireless telephone service provider is immune from
11 civil liability for its actions taken in compliance
12 with a court order issued under this paragraph.
13 (F) All wireless service providers that provide
14 services to residential customers shall provide to the
15 Illinois Commerce Commission the name and address of
16 an agent for service of orders entered under this
17 paragraph (18). Any change in status of the registered
18 agent must be reported to the Illinois Commerce
19 Commission within 30 days of such change.
20 (G) The Illinois Commerce Commission shall
21 maintain the list of registered agents for service for
22 each wireless telephone service provider on the
23 Commission's website. The Commission may consult with
24 wireless telephone service providers and the Circuit
25 Court Clerks on the manner in which this information
26 is provided and displayed.

SB2889- 124 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 (c) Relevant factors; findings.
2 (1) In determining whether to grant a specific remedy,
3 other than payment of support, the court shall consider
4 relevant factors, including, but not limited to, the
5 following:
6 (i) the nature, frequency, severity, pattern, and
7 consequences of the respondent's past abuse of the
8 petitioner or any family or household member,
9 including the concealment of his or her location in
10 order to evade service of process or notice, and the
11 likelihood of danger of future abuse to petitioner or
12 any member of petitioner's or respondent's family or
13 household; and
14 (ii) the danger that any minor child will be
15 abused or neglected or improperly relocated from the
16 jurisdiction, improperly concealed within the State,
17 or improperly separated from the child's primary
18 caretaker.
19 (2) In comparing relative hardships resulting to the
20 parties from loss of possession of the family home, the
21 court shall consider relevant factors, including, but not
22 limited to, the following:
23 (i) availability, accessibility, cost, safety,
24 adequacy, location, and other characteristics of
25 alternate housing for each party and any minor child
26 or dependent adult in the party's care;

SB2889- 125 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 (ii) the effect on the party's employment; and
2 (iii) the effect on the relationship of the party,
3 and any minor child or dependent adult in the party's
4 care, to family, school, church, and community.
5 (3) Subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph
6 (4) of this subsection (c), the court shall make its
7 findings in an official record or in writing, and shall at
8 a minimum set forth the following:
9 (i) That the court has considered the applicable
10 relevant factors described in paragraphs (1) and (2)
11 of this subsection (c).
12 (ii) Whether the conduct or actions of respondent,
13 unless prohibited, will likely cause irreparable harm
14 or continued abuse.
15 (iii) Whether it is necessary to grant the
16 requested relief in order to protect petitioner or
17 other alleged abused persons.
18 (4) (Blank).
19 (5) Never married parties. No rights or
20 responsibilities for a minor child born outside of
21 marriage attach to a putative father until a father and
22 child relationship has been established under the Illinois
23 Parentage Act of 1984, the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015,
24 the Illinois Public Aid Code, Section 12 of the Vital
25 Records Act, the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Probate
26 Act of 1975, the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act,

SB2889- 126 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1 the Expedited Child Support Act of 1990, any judicial,
2 administrative, or other act of another state or
3 territory, any other statute of this State, or by any
4 foreign nation establishing the father and child
5 relationship, any other proceeding substantially in
6 conformity with the federal Personal Responsibility and
7 Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, or when both
8 parties appeared in open court or at an administrative
9 hearing acknowledging under oath or admitting by
10 affirmation the existence of a father and child
11 relationship. Absent such an adjudication, no putative
12 father shall be granted temporary allocation of parental
13 responsibilities, including parenting time with the minor
14 child, or physical care and possession of the minor child,
15 nor shall an order of payment for support of the minor
16 child be entered.
17 (d) Balance of hardships; findings. If the court finds
18that the balance of hardships does not support the granting of
19a remedy governed by paragraph (2), (3), (10), (11), or (16) of
20subsection (b) of this Section, which may require such
21balancing, the court's findings shall so indicate and shall
22include a finding as to whether granting the remedy will
23result in hardship to respondent that would substantially
24outweigh the hardship to petitioner from denial of the remedy.
25The findings shall be an official record or in writing.
26 (e) Denial of remedies. Denial of any remedy shall not be

SB2889- 127 -LRB102 17768 RLC 24011 b
1based, in whole or in part, on evidence that:
2 (1) respondent has cause for any use of force, unless
3 that cause satisfies the standards for justifiable use of
4 force provided by Article 7 of the Criminal Code of 2012;
5 (2) respondent was voluntarily intoxicated;
6 (3) petitioner acted in self-defense or defense of
7 another, provided that, if petitioner utilized force, such
8 force was justifiable under Article 7 of the Criminal Code
9 of 2012;
10 (4) petitioner did not act in self-defense or defense
11 of another;
12 (5) petitioner left the residence or household to
13 avoid further abuse by respondent;
14 (6) petitioner did not leave the residence or
15 household to avoid further abuse by respondent; or
16 (7) conduct by any family or household member excused
17 the abuse by respondent, unless that same conduct would
18 have excused such abuse if the parties had not been family
19 or household members.
