22efforts in making publicly available, on a regular and ongoing
23basis, key information related to firearms used in the
24commission of crimes in this State, including, but not limited

HB2605- 24 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1to: reports on crimes committed with firearms, locations where

15to the General Assembly shall be filed with the Clerk of the

17electronic form only, in the manner that the Clerk and the
18Secretary shall direct.
19 (b) (Blank). The Illinois State Police shall study, on a

22 Section 7. The First Responders Suicide Prevention Act is
23amended by changing Section 40 as follows:
24 (5 ILCS 840/40)

HB2605- 26 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 Sec. 40. Task Force recommendations.
2 (a) Task Force members shall recommend that agencies and
3organizations guarantee access to mental health and wellness
4services, including, but not limited to, peer support programs
5and providing ongoing education related to the ever-evolving
6concept of mental health wellness. These recommendations could
7be accomplished by:
8 (1) Revising agencies' and organizations' employee
9 assistance programs (EAPs).
10 (2) Urging health care providers to replace outdated
11 healthcare plans and include more progressive options
12 catering to the needs and disproportionate risks
13 shouldered by our first responders.
14 (3) Allocating funding or resources for public service
15 announcements (PSA) and messaging campaigns aimed at
16 raising awareness of available assistance options.
17 (4) Encouraging agencies and organizations to attach
18 lists of all available resources to training manuals and
19 continuing education requirements.
20 (b) Task Force members shall recommend agencies and
21organizations sponsor or facilitate first responders with
22specialized training in the areas of psychological fitness,
23depressive disorders, early detection, and mitigation best
24practices. Such trainings could be accomplished by:
25 (1) Assigning, appointing, or designating one member
26 of an agency or organization to attend specialized

HB2605- 27 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 training(s) sponsored by an accredited agency,
2 association, or organization recognized in their fields of
3 study.
4 (2) Seeking sponsorships or conducting fund-raisers,
5 to host annual or semiannual on-site visits from qualified
6 clinicians or physicians to provide early detection
7 training techniques, or to provide regular access to
8 mental health professionals.
9 (3) Requiring a minimum number of hours of disorders
10 and wellness training be incorporated into reoccurring,
11 annual or biannual training standards, examinations, and
12 curriculums, taking into close consideration respective
13 agency or organization size, frequency, and number of all
14 current federal and state mandatory examinations and
15 trainings expected respectively.
16 (4) Not underestimating the crucial importance of a
17 balanced diet, sleep, mindfulness-based stress reduction
18 techniques, moderate and vigorous intensity activities,
19 and recreational hobbies, which have been scientifically
20 proven to play a major role in brain health and mental
21 wellness.
22 (c) Task Force members shall recommend that administrators
23and leadership personnel solicit training services from
24evidence-based, data driven organizations. Organizations with
25personnel trained on the analytical review and interpretation
26of specific fields related to the nature of first responders'

HB2605- 28 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1exploits, such as PTSD, substance abuse, chronic state of
2duress. Task Force members shall further recommend funding for
3expansion and messaging campaigns of preliminary
4self-diagnosing technologies like the one described above.
5These objectives could be met by:
6 (1) Contacting an accredited agency, association, or
7 organization recognized in the field or fields of specific
8 study. Unbeknownst to the majority, many of the agencies
9 and organizations listed above receive grants and
10 allocations to assist communities with the very issues
11 being discussed in this Section.
12 (2) Normalizing help-seeking behaviors for both first
13 responders and their families through regular messaging
14 and peer support outreach, beginning with academy
15 curricula and continuing education throughout individuals'
16 careers.
17 (3) Funding and implementing PSA campaigns that
18 provide clear and concise calls to action about mental
19 health and wellness, resiliency, help-seeking, treatment,
20 and recovery.
21 (4) Promoting and raising awareness of not-for-profit
22 non-for-profit organizations currently available to assist
23 individuals in search of care and treatment. Organizations
24 have intuitive user-friendly sites, most of which have
25 mobile applications, so first responders can access at a
26 moment's notice. However, because of limited funds, these

HB2605- 29 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 organizations have a challenging time of getting the word
2 out there about their existence.
3 (5) Expanding Family and Medical Leave Act protections
4 for individuals voluntarily seeking preventative
5 treatment.
6 (6) Promoting and ensuring complete patient
7 confidentiality protections.
8 (d) Task Force members shall recommend that agencies and
9organizations incorporate the following training components
10into already existing modules and educational curriculums.
11Doing so could be done by:
12 (1) Bolstering academy and school curricula by
13 requiring depressive disorder training catered to PTSD,
14 substance abuse, and early detection techniques training,
15 taking into close consideration respective agency or
16 organization size, and the frequency and number of all
17 current federal and state mandatory examinations and
18 trainings expected respectively.
19 (2) Continuing to allocate or match federal and state
20 funds to maintain Mobile Mobil Training Units (MTUs).
21 (3) Incorporating a state certificate for peer support
22 training into already exiting statewide curriculums and
23 mandatory examinations, annual State Fire Marshal
24 examinations, and physical fitness examinations. The
25 subject matter of the certificate should have an emphasis
26 on mental health and wellness, as well as familiarization

HB2605- 30 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 with topics ranging from clinical social work, clinical
2 psychology, clinical behaviorist, and clinical psychiatry.
3 (4) Incorporating and performing statewide mental
4 health check-ins during the same times as already mandated
5 trainings. These checks are not to be compared or used as
6 measures of fitness for duty evaluations or structured
7 psychological examinations.
8 (5) Recommending comprehensive and evidence-based
9 training on the importance of preventative measures on the
10 topics of sleep, nutrition, mindfulness, and physical
11 movement.
12 (6) (Blank). Law enforcement agencies should provide
13 training on the Firearm Owner's Identification Card Act,
14 including seeking relief from the Illinois State Police
15 under Section 10 of the Firearm Owners Identification Card
16 Act and a FOID card being a continued condition of
17 employment under Section 7.2 of the Uniform Peace
18 Officers' Disciplinary Act.

15 (Text of Section before amendment by P.A. 102-466)
16 Sec. 10-22.6. Suspension or expulsion of pupils; school
17searches.
18 (a) To expel pupils guilty of gross disobedience or
19misconduct, including gross disobedience or misconduct
20perpetuated by electronic means, pursuant to subsection (b-20)
21of this Section, and no action shall lie against them for such
22expulsion. Expulsion shall take place only after the parents
23have been requested to appear at a meeting of the board, or
24with a hearing officer appointed by it, to discuss their

HB2605- 59 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1child's behavior. Such request shall be made by registered or
2certified mail and shall state the time, place and purpose of
3the meeting. The board, or a hearing officer appointed by it,
4at such meeting shall state the reasons for dismissal and the
5date on which the expulsion is to become effective. If a
6hearing officer is appointed by the board, he shall report to
7the board a written summary of the evidence heard at the
8meeting and the board may take such action thereon as it finds
9appropriate. If the board acts to expel a pupil, the written
10expulsion decision shall detail the specific reasons why
11removing the pupil from the learning environment is in the
12best interest of the school. The expulsion decision shall also
13include a rationale as to the specific duration of the
14expulsion. An expelled pupil may be immediately transferred to
15an alternative program in the manner provided in Article 13A
16or 13B of this Code. A pupil must not be denied transfer
17because of the expulsion, except in cases in which such
18transfer is deemed to cause a threat to the safety of students
19or staff in the alternative program.
20 (b) To suspend or by policy to authorize the
21superintendent of the district or the principal, assistant
22principal, or dean of students of any school to suspend pupils
23guilty of gross disobedience or misconduct, or to suspend
24pupils guilty of gross disobedience or misconduct on the
25school bus from riding the school bus, pursuant to subsections
26(b-15) and (b-20) of this Section, and no action shall lie

HB2605- 60 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1against them for such suspension. The board may by policy
2authorize the superintendent of the district or the principal,
3assistant principal, or dean of students of any school to
4suspend pupils guilty of such acts for a period not to exceed
510 school days. If a pupil is suspended due to gross
6disobedience or misconduct on a school bus, the board may
7suspend the pupil in excess of 10 school days for safety
8reasons.
9 Any suspension shall be reported immediately to the
10parents or guardian of a pupil along with a full statement of
11the reasons for such suspension and a notice of their right to
12a review. The school board must be given a summary of the
13notice, including the reason for the suspension and the
14suspension length. Upon request of the parents or guardian,
15the school board or a hearing officer appointed by it shall
16review such action of the superintendent or principal,
17assistant principal, or dean of students. At such review, the
18parents or guardian of the pupil may appear and discuss the
19suspension with the board or its hearing officer. If a hearing
20officer is appointed by the board, he shall report to the board
21a written summary of the evidence heard at the meeting. After
22its hearing or upon receipt of the written report of its
23hearing officer, the board may take such action as it finds
24appropriate. If a student is suspended pursuant to this
25subsection (b), the board shall, in the written suspension
26decision, detail the specific act of gross disobedience or

HB2605- 61 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1misconduct resulting in the decision to suspend. The
2suspension decision shall also include a rationale as to the
3specific duration of the suspension. A pupil who is suspended
4in excess of 20 school days may be immediately transferred to
5an alternative program in the manner provided in Article 13A
6or 13B of this Code. A pupil must not be denied transfer
7because of the suspension, except in cases in which such
8transfer is deemed to cause a threat to the safety of students
9or staff in the alternative program.
10 (b-5) Among the many possible disciplinary interventions
11and consequences available to school officials, school
12exclusions, such as out-of-school suspensions and expulsions,
13are the most serious. School officials shall limit the number
14and duration of expulsions and suspensions to the greatest
15extent practicable, and it is recommended that they use them
16only for legitimate educational purposes. To ensure that
17students are not excluded from school unnecessarily, it is
18recommended that school officials consider forms of
19non-exclusionary discipline prior to using out-of-school
20suspensions or expulsions.
21 (b-10) Unless otherwise required by federal law or this
22Code, school boards may not institute zero-tolerance policies
23by which school administrators are required to suspend or
24expel students for particular behaviors.
25 (b-15) Out-of-school suspensions of 3 days or less may be
26used only if the student's continuing presence in school would

HB2605- 62 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1pose a threat to school safety or a disruption to other
2students' learning opportunities. For purposes of this
3subsection (b-15), "threat to school safety or a disruption to
4other students' learning opportunities" shall be determined on
5a case-by-case basis by the school board or its designee.
6School officials shall make all reasonable efforts to resolve
7such threats, address such disruptions, and minimize the
8length of suspensions to the greatest extent practicable.
9 (b-20) Unless otherwise required by this Code,
10out-of-school suspensions of longer than 3 days, expulsions,
11and disciplinary removals to alternative schools may be used
12only if other appropriate and available behavioral and
13disciplinary interventions have been exhausted and the
14student's continuing presence in school would either (i) pose
15a threat to the safety of other students, staff, or members of
16the school community or (ii) substantially disrupt, impede, or
17interfere with the operation of the school. For purposes of
18this subsection (b-20), "threat to the safety of other
19students, staff, or members of the school community" and
20"substantially disrupt, impede, or interfere with the
21operation of the school" shall be determined on a case-by-case
22basis by school officials. For purposes of this subsection
23(b-20), the determination of whether "appropriate and
24available behavioral and disciplinary interventions have been
25exhausted" shall be made by school officials. School officials
26shall make all reasonable efforts to resolve such threats,

HB2605- 63 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1address such disruptions, and minimize the length of student
2exclusions to the greatest extent practicable. Within the
3suspension decision described in subsection (b) of this
4Section or the expulsion decision described in subsection (a)
5of this Section, it shall be documented whether other
6interventions were attempted or whether it was determined that
7there were no other appropriate and available interventions.
8 (b-25) Students who are suspended out-of-school for longer
9than 4 school days shall be provided appropriate and available
10support services during the period of their suspension. For
11purposes of this subsection (b-25), "appropriate and available
12support services" shall be determined by school authorities.
13Within the suspension decision described in subsection (b) of
14this Section, it shall be documented whether such services are
15to be provided or whether it was determined that there are no
16such appropriate and available services.
17 A school district may refer students who are expelled to
18appropriate and available support services.
19 A school district shall create a policy to facilitate the
20re-engagement of students who are suspended out-of-school,
21expelled, or returning from an alternative school setting.
22 (b-30) A school district shall create a policy by which
23suspended pupils, including those pupils suspended from the
24school bus who do not have alternate transportation to school,
25shall have the opportunity to make up work for equivalent
26academic credit. It shall be the responsibility of a pupil's

HB2605- 64 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1parent or guardian to notify school officials that a pupil
2suspended from the school bus does not have alternate
3transportation to school.
4 (c) A school board must invite a representative from a
5local mental health agency to consult with the board at the
6meeting whenever there is evidence that mental illness may be
7the cause of a student's expulsion or suspension.
8 (c-5) School districts shall make reasonable efforts to
9provide ongoing professional development to teachers,
10administrators, school board members, school resource
11officers, and staff on the adverse consequences of school
12exclusion and justice-system involvement, effective classroom
13management strategies, culturally responsive discipline, the
14appropriate and available supportive services for the
15promotion of student attendance and engagement, and
16developmentally appropriate disciplinary methods that promote
17positive and healthy school climates.
18 (d) The board may expel a student for a definite period of
19time not to exceed 2 calendar years, as determined on a
20case-by-case basis. A student who is determined to have
21brought one of the following objects to school, any
22school-sponsored activity or event, or any activity or event
23that bears a reasonable relationship to school shall be
24expelled for a period of not less than one year:
25 (1) A firearm. For the purposes of this Section,
26 "firearm" means any gun, rifle, shotgun, weapon as defined

20transfer to an alternative school program in accordance with
21Article 13A of the School Code.
22 (d-5) The board may suspend or by regulation authorize the
23superintendent of the district or the principal, assistant
24principal, or dean of students of any school to suspend a
25student for a period not to exceed 10 school days or may expel
26a student for a definite period of time not to exceed 2

HB2605- 66 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1calendar years, as determined on a case-by-case basis, if (i)
2that student has been determined to have made an explicit
3threat on an Internet website against a school employee, a
4student, or any school-related personnel, (ii) the Internet
5website through which the threat was made is a site that was
6accessible within the school at the time the threat was made or
7was available to third parties who worked or studied within
8the school grounds at the time the threat was made, and (iii)
9the threat could be reasonably interpreted as threatening to
10the safety and security of the threatened individual because
11of his or her duties or employment status or status as a
12student inside the school.
13 (e) To maintain order and security in the schools, school
14authorities may inspect and search places and areas such as
15lockers, desks, parking lots, and other school property and
16equipment owned or controlled by the school, as well as
17personal effects left in those places and areas by students,
18without notice to or the consent of the student, and without a
19search warrant. As a matter of public policy, the General
20Assembly finds that students have no reasonable expectation of
21privacy in these places and areas or in their personal effects
22left in these places and areas. School authorities may request
23the assistance of law enforcement officials for the purpose of
24conducting inspections and searches of lockers, desks, parking
25lots, and other school property and equipment owned or
26controlled by the school for illegal drugs, weapons, or other

14public or private school in this or any other state, the
15student must complete the entire term of the suspension or
16expulsion in an alternative school program under Article 13A
17of this Code or an alternative learning opportunities program
18under Article 13B of this Code before being admitted into the
19school district if there is no threat to the safety of students
20or staff in the alternative program.
21 (h) School officials shall not advise or encourage
22students to drop out voluntarily due to behavioral or academic
23difficulties.
24 (i) A student may not be issued a monetary fine or fee as a
25disciplinary consequence, though this shall not preclude
26requiring a student to provide restitution for lost, stolen,

HB2605- 68 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1or damaged property.
2 (j) Subsections (a) through (i) of this Section shall
3apply to elementary and secondary schools, charter schools,
4special charter districts, and school districts organized
5under Article 34 of this Code.
6 (k) The expulsion of children enrolled in programs funded
7under Section 1C-2 of this Code is subject to the requirements
8under paragraph (7) of subsection (a) of Section 2-3.71 of

13promoting non-violent conflict resolution and positive
14interaction with other students and school personnel. A school
15district may employ a school social worker or a licensed
16mental health professional to oversee an in-school suspension
17program in kindergarten through grade 12.

8 Section 50. The Mental Health and Developmental
9Disabilities Code is amended by changing Sections 1-106,
101-116, 6-103.1, 6-103.2, and 6-103.3 as follows:
11 (405 ILCS 5/1-106) (from Ch. 91 1/2, par. 1-106)
12 Sec. 1-106. "Developmental disability" means a severe,
13chronic disability, other than mental illness, found to be
14closely related to an intellectual disability because this
15condition results in impairment of general intellectual
16functioning or adaptive behavior similar to that of persons
17with ID, and requires services similar to those required for a
18person with an intellectual disability. In addition, a
19developmental disability: (1) is manifested before the
20individual reaches 22 years of age; (2) is likely to continue
21indefinitely; (3) results in substantial functional
22limitations in three or more of the following areas of major
23life activity: self-care, receptive and expressive language,
24learning, mobility, self-direction, capacity for independent

HB2605- 101 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1living, or economic self-sufficiency; and (4) reflects the
2individual's need for a combination and sequence of special
3interdisciplinary or generic services, individualized
4supports, or other forms of assistance that are of lifelong or
5extended duration and are individually planned and
6coordinated. This definition does not supersede the
7"developmental disability" definition in Section 1.1 of the
8Firearm Owners Identification Card Act which is required to be
9applied under that Act for the purpose of mandatory reporting.

12 Sec. 1-116. Intellectual disability. "Intellectual
13disability" means a disorder with onset during the
14developmental period (before the individual reaches age 22),
15that includes both intellectual and adaptive deficits in
16conceptual, social and practical domains. The following 3
17criteria must be met: (1) deficits in intellectual functions
18such as reasoning, problem solving, planning, abstract
19thinking, judgment, academic learning, and learning from
20experience confirmed by both clinical assessment and
21individualized, standardized intelligence testing (generally
22indicated with an IQ score of about 70 or below), (2) deficits
23in adaptive functioning that result in failure to meet
24developmental and sociocultural standards for personal
25independence and social responsibility. Without ongoing

HB2605- 102 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1support, the adaptive deficits limit functioning in one or
2more activities of daily life, such as communication, social
3participation, and independent living, across multiple
4environments, such as home, school, work, and community, and
5(3) onset of intellectual and adaptive deficits during the
6developmental period. This definition does not supersede the
7"intellectual disability" definition in Section 1.1 of the
8Firearm Owners Identification Card Act which is required to be
9applied under that Act for the purpose of mandatory reporting.

5 subsection (b), are individualized, and are in accordance
6 with national best practices as detailed in the Pretrial
7 Supervision Standards of the Supreme Court.
8 The defendant shall receive verbal and written
9notification of conditions of pretrial release and future
10court dates, including the date, time, and location of court.
11 (c) When a person is charged with an offense under Section
1211-1.20, 11-1.30, 11-1.40, 11-1.50, 11-1.60, 12-13, 12-14,
1312-14.1, 12-15 or 12-16 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the
14Criminal Code of 2012, involving a victim who is a minor under
1518 years of age living in the same household with the defendant
16at the time of the offense, in releasing the defendant, the
17judge shall impose conditions to restrict the defendant's
18access to the victim which may include, but are not limited to
19conditions that he will:
20 1. Vacate the household.
21 2. Make payment of temporary support to his
22 dependents.
23 3. Refrain from contact or communication with the
24 child victim, except as ordered by the court.

26the victim is a family or household member as defined in

HB2605- 298 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1Article 112A, conditions shall be imposed at the time of the
2defendant's release that restrict the defendant's access to
3the victim. Unless provided otherwise by the court, the
4restrictions shall include requirements that the defendant do
5the following:
6 (1) refrain from contact or communication with the
7 victim for a minimum period of 72 hours following the
8 defendant's release; and
9 (2) refrain from entering or remaining at the victim's
10 residence for a minimum period of 72 hours following the
11 defendant's release.
12 (e) Local law enforcement agencies shall develop
13standardized pretrial release forms for use in cases involving
14family or household members as defined in Article 112A,
15including specific conditions of pretrial release as provided
16in subsection (d). Failure of any law enforcement department
17to develop or use those forms shall in no way limit the
18applicability and enforcement of subsections (d) and (f).
19 (f) If the defendant is released after conviction
20following appeal or other post-conviction proceeding, the
21conditions of the pretrial release shall be that he will, in
22addition to the conditions set forth in subsections (a) and
23(b) hereof:
24 (1) Duly prosecute his appeal;
25 (2) Appear at such time and place as the court may
26 direct;

HB2605- 299 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b

8defendant shall physically surrender, at a time and place
9designated by the court, any and all firearms in his or her
10possession and his or her Firearm Owner's Identification Card
11as a condition of being released pending sentencing.

16misdemeanor crimes are crimes of domestic violence for
17purposes of federal law.
18 (a) When a defendant has been charged with a violation of
19Section 12-1, 12-2, 12-3, 12-3.2, 12-3.4, or 12-3.5 of the
20Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, the State
21may, at arraignment or no later than 45 days after
22arraignment, for the purpose of notification to the Illinois
23State Police Firearm Owner's Identification Card Office, serve
24on the defendant and file with the court a notice alleging that
25conviction of the offense would subject the defendant to the

HB2605- 300 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1prohibitions of 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(9) because of the
2relationship between the defendant and the alleged victim and
3the nature of the alleged offense.
4 (b) The notice shall include the name of the person
5alleged to be the victim of the crime and shall specify the
6nature of the alleged relationship as set forth in 18 U.S.C.
7921(a)(33)(A)(ii). It shall also specify the element of the
8charged offense which requires the use or attempted use of
9physical force, or the threatened use of a deadly weapon, as
10set forth 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(33)(A)(ii). It shall also include
11notice that the defendant is entitled to a hearing on the
12allegation contained in the notice and that if the allegation
13is sustained, that determination and conviction shall be
14reported to the Illinois State Police Firearm Owner's
15Identification Card Office.
16 (c) After having been notified as provided in subsection
17(b) of this Section, the defendant may stipulate or admit,
18orally on the record or in writing, that conviction of the
19offense would subject the defendant to the prohibitions of 18
20U.S.C. 922(g)(9). In that case, the applicability of 18 U.S.C.
21922(g)(9) shall be deemed established for purposes of Section
22112A-11.2. If the defendant denies the applicability of 18
23U.S.C. 922(g)(9) as alleged in the notice served by the State,
24or stands mute with respect to that allegation, then the State
25shall bear the burden to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that
26the offense is one to which the prohibitions of 18 U.S.C.

HB2605- 301 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1922(g)(9) apply. The court may consider reliable hearsay
2evidence submitted by either party provided that it is
3relevant to the determination of the allegation. Facts
4previously proven at trial or elicited at the time of entry of
5a plea of guilty shall be deemed established beyond a
6reasonable doubt and shall not be relitigated. At the
7conclusion of the hearing, or upon a stipulation or admission,
8as applicable, the court shall make a specific written
9determination with respect to the allegation.

4 Sec. 112A-14. Domestic violence order of protection;
5remedies.
6 (a) (Blank).
7 (b) The court may order any of the remedies listed in this
8subsection (b). The remedies listed in this subsection (b)
9shall be in addition to other civil or criminal remedies
10available to petitioner.
11 (1) Prohibition of abuse. Prohibit respondent's
12 harassment, interference with personal liberty,
13 intimidation of a dependent, physical abuse, or willful
14 deprivation, as defined in this Article, if such abuse has
15 occurred or otherwise appears likely to occur if not
16 prohibited.
17 (2) Grant of exclusive possession of residence.
18 Prohibit respondent from entering or remaining in any
19 residence, household, or premises of the petitioner,
20 including one owned or leased by respondent, if petitioner
21 has a right to occupancy thereof. The grant of exclusive
22 possession of the residence, household, or premises shall
23 not affect title to real property, nor shall the court be
24 limited by the standard set forth in subsection (c-2) of
25 Section 501 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of

HB2605- 303 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 Marriage Act.
2 (A) Right to occupancy. A party has a right to
3 occupancy of a residence or household if it is solely
4 or jointly owned or leased by that party, that party's
5 spouse, a person with a legal duty to support that
6 party or a minor child in that party's care, or by any
7 person or entity other than the opposing party that
8 authorizes that party's occupancy (e.g., a domestic
9 violence shelter). Standards set forth in subparagraph
10 (B) shall not preclude equitable relief.
11 (B) Presumption of hardships. If petitioner and
12 respondent each has the right to occupancy of a
13 residence or household, the court shall balance (i)
14 the hardships to respondent and any minor child or
15 dependent adult in respondent's care resulting from
16 entry of this remedy with (ii) the hardships to
17 petitioner and any minor child or dependent adult in
18 petitioner's care resulting from continued exposure to
19 the risk of abuse (should petitioner remain at the
20 residence or household) or from loss of possession of
21 the residence or household (should petitioner leave to
22 avoid the risk of abuse). When determining the balance
23 of hardships, the court shall also take into account
24 the accessibility of the residence or household.
25 Hardships need not be balanced if respondent does not
26 have a right to occupancy.

HB2605- 304 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 The balance of hardships is presumed to favor
2 possession by petitioner unless the presumption is
3 rebutted by a preponderance of the evidence, showing
4 that the hardships to respondent substantially
5 outweigh the hardships to petitioner and any minor
6 child or dependent adult in petitioner's care. The
7 court, on the request of petitioner or on its own
8 motion, may order respondent to provide suitable,
9 accessible, alternate housing for petitioner instead
10 of excluding respondent from a mutual residence or
11 household.
12 (3) Stay away order and additional prohibitions. Order
13 respondent to stay away from petitioner or any other
14 person protected by the domestic violence order of
15 protection, or prohibit respondent from entering or
16 remaining present at petitioner's school, place of
17 employment, or other specified places at times when
18 petitioner is present, or both, if reasonable, given the
19 balance of hardships. Hardships need not be balanced for
20 the court to enter a stay away order or prohibit entry if
21 respondent has no right to enter the premises.
22 (A) If a domestic violence order of protection
23 grants petitioner exclusive possession of the
24 residence, prohibits respondent from entering the
25 residence, or orders respondent to stay away from
26 petitioner or other protected persons, then the court

HB2605- 305 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 may allow respondent access to the residence to remove
2 items of clothing and personal adornment used
3 exclusively by respondent, medications, and other
4 items as the court directs. The right to access shall
5 be exercised on only one occasion as the court directs
6 and in the presence of an agreed-upon adult third
7 party or law enforcement officer.
8 (B) When the petitioner and the respondent attend
9 the same public, private, or non-public elementary,
10 middle, or high school, the court when issuing a
11 domestic violence order of protection and providing
12 relief shall consider the severity of the act, any
13 continuing physical danger or emotional distress to
14 the petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to
15 the petitioner and respondent under federal and State
16 law, the availability of a transfer of the respondent
17 to another school, a change of placement or a change of
18 program of the respondent, the expense, difficulty,
19 and educational disruption that would be caused by a
20 transfer of the respondent to another school, and any
21 other relevant facts of the case. The court may order
22 that the respondent not attend the public, private, or
23 non-public elementary, middle, or high school attended
24 by the petitioner, order that the respondent accept a
25 change of placement or change of program, as
26 determined by the school district or private or

HB2605- 306 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 non-public school, or place restrictions on the
2 respondent's movements within the school attended by
3 the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of
4 proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a
5 transfer, change of placement, or change of program of
6 the respondent is not available. The respondent also
7 bears the burden of production with respect to the
8 expense, difficulty, and educational disruption that
9 would be caused by a transfer of the respondent to
10 another school. A transfer, change of placement, or
11 change of program is not unavailable to the respondent
12 solely on the ground that the respondent does not
13 agree with the school district's or private or
14 non-public school's transfer, change of placement, or
15 change of program or solely on the ground that the
16 respondent fails or refuses to consent or otherwise
17 does not take an action required to effectuate a
18 transfer, change of placement, or change of program.
19 When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the
20 public, private, or non-public school attended by the
21 petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to
22 another attendance center within the respondent's
23 school district or private or non-public school, the
24 school district or private or non-public school shall
25 have sole discretion to determine the attendance
26 center to which the respondent is transferred. If the

HB2605- 307 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 court order results in a transfer of the minor
2 respondent to another attendance center, a change in
3 the respondent's placement, or a change of the
4 respondent's program, the parents, guardian, or legal
5 custodian of the respondent is responsible for
6 transportation and other costs associated with the
7 transfer or change.
8 (C) The court may order the parents, guardian, or
9 legal custodian of a minor respondent to take certain
10 actions or to refrain from taking certain actions to
11 ensure that the respondent complies with the order. If
12 the court orders a transfer of the respondent to
13 another school, the parents, guardian, or legal
14 custodian of the respondent is responsible for
15 transportation and other costs associated with the
16 change of school by the respondent.
17 (4) Counseling. Require or recommend the respondent to
18 undergo counseling for a specified duration with a social
19 worker, psychologist, clinical psychologist,
20 psychiatrist, family service agency, alcohol or substance
21 abuse program, mental health center guidance counselor,
22 agency providing services to elders, program designed for
23 domestic violence abusers, or any other guidance service
24 the court deems appropriate. The court may order the
25 respondent in any intimate partner relationship to report
26 to an Illinois Department of Human Services protocol

HB2605- 308 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 approved partner abuse intervention program for an
2 assessment and to follow all recommended treatment.
3 (5) Physical care and possession of the minor child.
4 In order to protect the minor child from abuse, neglect,
5 or unwarranted separation from the person who has been the
6 minor child's primary caretaker, or to otherwise protect
7 the well-being of the minor child, the court may do either
8 or both of the following: (i) grant petitioner physical
9 care or possession of the minor child, or both, or (ii)
10 order respondent to return a minor child to, or not remove
11 a minor child from, the physical care of a parent or person
12 in loco parentis.
13 If the respondent is charged with abuse (as defined in
14 Section 112A-3 of this Code) of a minor child, there shall
15 be a rebuttable presumption that awarding physical care to
16 respondent would not be in the minor child's best
17 interest.
18 (6) Temporary allocation of parental responsibilities
19 and significant decision-making responsibilities. Award
20 temporary significant decision-making responsibility to
21 petitioner in accordance with this Section, the Illinois
22 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, the Illinois
23 Parentage Act of 2015, and this State's Uniform
24 Child-Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act.
25 If the respondent is charged with abuse (as defined in
26 Section 112A-3 of this Code) of a minor child, there shall

HB2605- 309 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 be a rebuttable presumption that awarding temporary
2 significant decision-making responsibility to respondent
3 would not be in the child's best interest.
4 (7) Parenting time. Determine the parenting time, if
5 any, of respondent in any case in which the court awards
6 physical care or temporary significant decision-making
7 responsibility of a minor child to petitioner. The court
8 shall restrict or deny respondent's parenting time with a
9 minor child if the court finds that respondent has done or
10 is likely to do any of the following:
11 (i) abuse or endanger the minor child during
12 parenting time;
13 (ii) use the parenting time as an opportunity to
14 abuse or harass petitioner or petitioner's family or
15 household members;
16 (iii) improperly conceal or detain the minor
17 child; or
18 (iv) otherwise act in a manner that is not in the
19 best interests of the minor child.
20 The court shall not be limited by the standards set
21 forth in Section 603.10 of the Illinois Marriage and
22 Dissolution of Marriage Act. If the court grants parenting
23 time, the order shall specify dates and times for the
24 parenting time to take place or other specific parameters
25 or conditions that are appropriate. No order for parenting
26 time shall refer merely to the term "reasonable parenting

HB2605- 310 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 time". Petitioner may deny respondent access to the minor
2 child if, when respondent arrives for parenting time,
3 respondent is under the influence of drugs or alcohol and
4 constitutes a threat to the safety and well-being of
5 petitioner or petitioner's minor children or is behaving
6 in a violent or abusive manner. If necessary to protect
7 any member of petitioner's family or household from future
8 abuse, respondent shall be prohibited from coming to
9 petitioner's residence to meet the minor child for
10 parenting time, and the petitioner and respondent shall
11 submit to the court their recommendations for reasonable
12 alternative arrangements for parenting time. A person may
13 be approved to supervise parenting time only after filing
14 an affidavit accepting that responsibility and
15 acknowledging accountability to the court.
16 (8) Removal or concealment of minor child. Prohibit
17 respondent from removing a minor child from the State or
18 concealing the child within the State.
19 (9) Order to appear. Order the respondent to appear in
20 court, alone or with a minor child, to prevent abuse,
21 neglect, removal or concealment of the child, to return
22 the child to the custody or care of the petitioner, or to
23 permit any court-ordered interview or examination of the
24 child or the respondent.
25 (10) Possession of personal property. Grant petitioner
26 exclusive possession of personal property and, if

HB2605- 311 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 respondent has possession or control, direct respondent to
2 promptly make it available to petitioner, if:
3 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
4 property; or
5 (ii) the petitioner and respondent own the
6 property jointly; sharing it would risk abuse of
7 petitioner by respondent or is impracticable; and the
8 balance of hardships favors temporary possession by
9 petitioner.
10 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the
11 property is that it is marital property, the court may
12 award petitioner temporary possession thereof under the
13 standards of subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph only if a
14 proper proceeding has been filed under the Illinois
15 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as now or
16 hereafter amended.
17 No order under this provision shall affect title to
18 property.
19 (11) Protection of property. Forbid the respondent
20 from taking, transferring, encumbering, concealing,
21 damaging, or otherwise disposing of any real or personal
22 property, except as explicitly authorized by the court,
23 if:
24 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
25 property; or
26 (ii) the petitioner and respondent own the

HB2605- 312 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 property jointly, and the balance of hardships favors
2 granting this remedy.
3 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the
4 property is that it is marital property, the court may
5 grant petitioner relief under subparagraph (ii) of this
6 paragraph only if a proper proceeding has been filed under
7 the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
8 now or hereafter amended.
9 The court may further prohibit respondent from
10 improperly using the financial or other resources of an
11 aged member of the family or household for the profit or
12 advantage of respondent or of any other person.
13 (11.5) Protection of animals. Grant the petitioner the
14 exclusive care, custody, or control of any animal owned,
15 possessed, leased, kept, or held by either the petitioner
16 or the respondent or a minor child residing in the
17 residence or household of either the petitioner or the
18 respondent and order the respondent to stay away from the
19 animal and forbid the respondent from taking,
20 transferring, encumbering, concealing, harming, or
21 otherwise disposing of the animal.
22 (12) Order for payment of support. Order respondent to
23 pay temporary support for the petitioner or any child in
24 the petitioner's care or over whom the petitioner has been
25 allocated parental responsibility, when the respondent has
26 a legal obligation to support that person, in accordance

HB2605- 313 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 with the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage
2 Act, which shall govern, among other matters, the amount
3 of support, payment through the clerk and withholding of
4 income to secure payment. An order for child support may
5 be granted to a petitioner with lawful physical care of a
6 child, or an order or agreement for physical care of a
7 child, prior to entry of an order allocating significant
8 decision-making responsibility. Such a support order shall
9 expire upon entry of a valid order allocating parental
10 responsibility differently and vacating petitioner's
11 significant decision-making responsibility unless
12 otherwise provided in the order.
13 (13) Order for payment of losses. Order respondent to
14 pay petitioner for losses suffered as a direct result of
15 the abuse. Such losses shall include, but not be limited
16 to, medical expenses, lost earnings or other support,
17 repair or replacement of property damaged or taken,
18 reasonable attorney's fees, court costs, and moving or
19 other travel expenses, including additional reasonable
20 expenses for temporary shelter and restaurant meals.
21 (i) Losses affecting family needs. If a party is
22 entitled to seek maintenance, child support, or
23 property distribution from the other party under the
24 Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
25 now or hereafter amended, the court may order
26 respondent to reimburse petitioner's actual losses, to

HB2605- 314 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 the extent that such reimbursement would be
2 "appropriate temporary relief", as authorized by
3 subsection (a)(3) of Section 501 of that Act.
4 (ii) Recovery of expenses. In the case of an
5 improper concealment or removal of a minor child, the
6 court may order respondent to pay the reasonable
7 expenses incurred or to be incurred in the search for
8 and recovery of the minor child, including, but not
9 limited to, legal fees, court costs, private
10 investigator fees, and travel costs.
11 (14) Prohibition of entry. Prohibit the respondent
12 from entering or remaining in the residence or household
13 while the respondent is under the influence of alcohol or
14 drugs and constitutes a threat to the safety and
15 well-being of the petitioner or the petitioner's children.
16 (14.5) Prohibition of firearm possession.
17 (A) A person who is subject to an existing
18 domestic violence order of protection issued under
19 this Code may not lawfully possess firearms, stun
20 guns, or tasers weapons or a Firearm Owner's
21 Identification Card under Section 8.2 of the Firearm
22 Owners Identification Card Act.
23 (B) Any firearms in the possession of the
24 respondent, except as provided in subparagraph (C) of
25 this paragraph (14.5), shall be ordered by the court
26 to be turned over to a person who is not prohibited

HB2605- 315 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 under State or federal law from possessing firearms
2 with a valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card for
3 safekeeping. The court shall issue an order that the
4 respondent comply with Section 9.5 of the Firearm
5 Owners Identification Card Act.
6 (C) If the respondent is a peace officer as
7 defined in Section 2-13 of the Criminal Code of 2012,
8 the court shall order that any firearms used by the
9 respondent in the performance of his or her duties as a
10 peace officer be surrendered to the chief law
11 enforcement executive of the agency in which the
12 respondent is employed, who shall retain the firearms
13 for safekeeping for the duration of the domestic
14 violence order of protection.
15 (D) Upon expiration of the period of safekeeping,
16 if the firearms or Firearm Owner's Identification Card
17 cannot be returned to respondent because respondent
18 cannot be located, fails to respond to requests to
19 retrieve the firearms, or is not lawfully eligible to
20 possess a firearm, upon petition from the local law
21 enforcement agency, the court may order the local law
22 enforcement agency to destroy the firearms, use the
23 firearms for training purposes, or for any other
24 application as deemed appropriate by the local law
25 enforcement agency; or that the firearms be turned
26 over to a third party who is lawfully eligible to

HB2605- 316 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 possess firearms, and who does not reside with
2 respondent.
3 (15) Prohibition of access to records. If a domestic

5 terminate the respondent's use of, and shall transfer
6 to the petitioner use of, the telephone number or
7 numbers indicated in subparagraph (A) of this
8 paragraph unless it notifies the petitioner, within 72
9 hours after it receives the order, that one of the
10 following applies:
11 (i) The account holder named in the order has
12 terminated the account.
13 (ii) A difference in network technology would
14 prevent or impair the functionality of a device on

17 other limitation on network or service provision
18 to the petitioner.
19 (iv) Another technological or operational
20 issue would prevent or impair the use of the
21 telephone number if the transfer occurs.
22 (C) The petitioner assumes all financial

25 this paragraph, "financial responsibility" includes
26 monthly service costs and costs associated with any

HB2605- 319 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 mobile device associated with the number.
2 (D) A wireless telephone service provider may
3 apply to the petitioner its routine and customary
4 requirements for establishing an account or
5 transferring a number, including requiring the
6 petitioner to provide proof of identification,
7 financial information, and customer preferences.
8 (E) Except for willful or wanton misconduct, a
9 wireless telephone service provider is immune from
10 civil liability for its actions taken in compliance
11 with a court order issued under this paragraph.
12 (F) All wireless service providers that provide
13 services to residential customers shall provide to the
14 Illinois Commerce Commission the name and address of
15 an agent for service of orders entered under this
16 paragraph (18). Any change in status of the registered
17 agent must be reported to the Illinois Commerce
18 Commission within 30 days of such change.
19 (G) The Illinois Commerce Commission shall
20 maintain the list of registered agents for service for
21 each wireless telephone service provider on the

26 (c) Relevant factors; findings.

HB2605- 320 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 (1) In determining whether to grant a specific remedy,
2 other than payment of support, the court shall consider
3 relevant factors, including, but not limited to, the
4 following:
5 (i) the nature, frequency, severity, pattern, and
6 consequences of the respondent's past abuse of the
7 petitioner or any family or household member,
8 including the concealment of his or her location in
9 order to evade service of process or notice, and the
10 likelihood of danger of future abuse to petitioner or
11 any member of petitioner's or respondent's family or
12 household; and
13 (ii) the danger that any minor child will be
14 abused or neglected or improperly relocated from the
15 jurisdiction, improperly concealed within the State,
16 or improperly separated from the child's primary
17 caretaker.
18 (2) In comparing relative hardships resulting to the
19 parties from loss of possession of the family home, the
20 court shall consider relevant factors, including, but not
21 limited to, the following:
22 (i) availability, accessibility, cost, safety,
23 adequacy, location, and other characteristics of
24 alternate housing for each party and any minor child
25 or dependent adult in the party's care;
26 (ii) the effect on the party's employment; and

HB2605- 321 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 (iii) the effect on the relationship of the party,
2 and any minor child or dependent adult in the party's
3 care, to family, school, church, and community.
4 (3) Subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph
5 (4) of this subsection (c), the court shall make its
6 findings in an official record or in writing, and shall at
7 a minimum set forth the following:
8 (i) That the court has considered the applicable
9 relevant factors described in paragraphs (1) and (2)
10 of this subsection (c).
11 (ii) Whether the conduct or actions of respondent,
12 unless prohibited, will likely cause irreparable harm
13 or continued abuse.
14 (iii) Whether it is necessary to grant the
15 requested relief in order to protect petitioner or
16 other alleged abused persons.
17 (4) (Blank).
18 (5) Never married parties. No rights or
19 responsibilities for a minor child born outside of
20 marriage attach to a putative father until a father and
21 child relationship has been established under the Illinois
22 Parentage Act of 1984, the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015,
23 the Illinois Public Aid Code, Section 12 of the Vital
24 Records Act, the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Probate
25 Act of 1975, the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act,
26 the Expedited Child Support Act of 1990, any judicial,

HB2605- 322 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 administrative, or other act of another state or
2 territory, any other statute of this State, or by any
3 foreign nation establishing the father and child
4 relationship, any other proceeding substantially in
5 conformity with the federal Personal Responsibility and
6 Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, or when both
7 parties appeared in open court or at an administrative
8 hearing acknowledging under oath or admitting by
9 affirmation the existence of a father and child
10 relationship. Absent such an adjudication, no putative
11 father shall be granted temporary allocation of parental
12 responsibilities, including parenting time with the minor
13 child, or physical care and possession of the minor child,
14 nor shall an order of payment for support of the minor
15 child be entered.
16 (d) Balance of hardships; findings. If the court finds
17that the balance of hardships does not support the granting of
18a remedy governed by paragraph (2), (3), (10), (11), or (16) of
19subsection (b) of this Section, which may require such
20balancing, the court's findings shall so indicate and shall
21include a finding as to whether granting the remedy will
22result in hardship to respondent that would substantially
23outweigh the hardship to petitioner from denial of the remedy.
24The findings shall be an official record or in writing.
25 (e) Denial of remedies. Denial of any remedy shall not be
26based, in whole or in part, on evidence that:

HB2605- 323 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 (1) respondent has cause for any use of force, unless
2 that cause satisfies the standards for justifiable use of
3 force provided by Article 7 of the Criminal Code of 2012;
4 (2) respondent was voluntarily intoxicated;
5 (3) petitioner acted in self-defense or defense of
6 another, provided that, if petitioner utilized force, such
7 force was justifiable under Article 7 of the Criminal Code
8 of 2012;
9 (4) petitioner did not act in self-defense or defense
10 of another;
11 (5) petitioner left the residence or household to
12 avoid further abuse by respondent;
13 (6) petitioner did not leave the residence or
14 household to avoid further abuse by respondent; or
15 (7) conduct by any family or household member excused
16 the abuse by respondent, unless that same conduct would
17 have excused such abuse if the parties had not been family
18 or household members.

22 Sec. 112A-14.7. Stalking no contact order; remedies.
23 (a) The court may order any of the remedies listed in this
24Section. The remedies listed in this Section shall be in
25addition to other civil or criminal remedies available to

HB2605- 324 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1petitioner. A stalking no contact order shall order one or
2more of the following:
3 (1) prohibit the respondent from threatening to commit
4 or committing stalking;
5 (2) order the respondent not to have any contact with
6 the petitioner or a third person specifically named by the
7 court;
8 (3) prohibit the respondent from knowingly coming
9 within, or knowingly remaining within a specified distance
10 of the petitioner or the petitioner's residence, school,
11 daycare, or place of employment, or any specified place
12 frequented by the petitioner; however, the court may order
13 the respondent to stay away from the respondent's own
14 residence, school, or place of employment only if the
15 respondent has been provided actual notice of the
16 opportunity to appear and be heard on the petition;
17 (4) prohibit the respondent from possessing a Firearm
18 Owners Identification Card, or possessing or buying
19 firearms; and
20 (5) order other injunctive relief the court determines
21 to be necessary to protect the petitioner or third party
22 specifically named by the court.
23 (b) When the petitioner and the respondent attend the same
24public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or high
25school, the court when issuing a stalking no contact order and
26providing relief shall consider the severity of the act, any

HB2605- 325 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1continuing physical danger or emotional distress to the
2petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to the
3petitioner and respondent under federal and State law, the
4availability of a transfer of the respondent to another
5school, a change of placement or a change of program of the
6respondent, the expense, difficulty, and educational
7disruption that would be caused by a transfer of the
8respondent to another school, and any other relevant facts of
9the case. The court may order that the respondent not attend
10the public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or high
11school attended by the petitioner, order that the respondent
12accept a change of placement or program, as determined by the
13school district or private or non-public school, or place
14restrictions on the respondent's movements within the school
15attended by the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of
16proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a transfer,
17change of placement, or change of program of the respondent is
18not available. The respondent also bears the burden of
19production with respect to the expense, difficulty, and
20educational disruption that would be caused by a transfer of
21the respondent to another school. A transfer, change of
22placement, or change of program is not unavailable to the
23respondent solely on the ground that the respondent does not
24agree with the school district's or private or non-public
25school's transfer, change of placement, or change of program
26or solely on the ground that the respondent fails or refuses to

HB2605- 326 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1consent to or otherwise does not take an action required to
2effectuate a transfer, change of placement, or change of
3program. When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the
4public, private, or non-public school attended by the
5petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to another
6attendance center within the respondent's school district or
7private or non-public school, the school district or private
8or non-public school shall have sole discretion to determine
9the attendance center to which the respondent is transferred.
10If the court order results in a transfer of the minor
11respondent to another attendance center, a change in the
12respondent's placement, or a change of the respondent's
13program, the parents, guardian, or legal custodian of the
14respondent is responsible for transportation and other costs
15associated with the transfer or change.
16 (c) The court may order the parents, guardian, or legal
17custodian of a minor respondent to take certain actions or to
18refrain from taking certain actions to ensure that the
19respondent complies with the order. If the court orders a
20transfer of the respondent to another school, the parents,
21guardian, or legal custodian of the respondent are responsible
22for transportation and other costs associated with the change
23of school by the respondent.
24 (d) The court shall not hold a school district or private
25or non-public school or any of its employees in civil or
26criminal contempt unless the school district or private or

HB2605- 327 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1non-public school has been allowed to intervene.
2 (e) The court may hold the parents, guardian, or legal
3custodian of a minor respondent in civil or criminal contempt
4for a violation of any provision of any order entered under
5this Article for conduct of the minor respondent in violation
6of this Article if the parents, guardian, or legal custodian
7directed, encouraged, or assisted the respondent minor in the
8conduct.
9 (f) Monetary damages are not recoverable as a remedy.
10 (g) If the stalking no contact order prohibits the
11respondent from possessing a Firearm Owner's Identification
12Card, or possessing or buying firearms; the court shall
13confiscate the respondent's firearms and firearm ammunition
14Firearm Owner's Identification Card and immediately return the
15card to the Illinois State Police Firearm Owner's
16Identification Card Office.

22 sentencing guidelines under this paragraph is warranted
23 under subsection (d) of this Section.

25 use of a weapon, when the weapon is a firearm, and that
26 person has been previously convicted of a qualifying

HB2605- 332 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 predicate offense, the person shall be sentenced to a term
2 of imprisonment within the sentencing range of not less

11substance violation, refrain from acquiring a driver's license
12during the period of probation or conditional discharge. If
13such person is in possession of a permit or license, the court
14may require that the minor refrain from driving or operating
15any motor vehicle during the period of probation or
16conditional discharge, except as may be necessary in the
17course of the minor's lawful employment.
18 (d) An offender sentenced to probation or to conditional
19discharge shall be given a certificate setting forth the
20conditions thereof.

22subsequent violation of subsection (c) of Section 6-303 of the
23Illinois Vehicle Code, the court shall not require as a
24condition of the sentence of probation or conditional
25discharge that the offender be committed to a period of

1not include periods of confinement given pursuant to a
2sentence of county impact incarceration under Section 5-8-1.2.
3 Persons committed to imprisonment as a condition of
4probation or conditional discharge shall not be committed to
5the Department of Corrections.
6 (f) The court may combine a sentence of periodic
7imprisonment under Article 7 or a sentence to a county impact
8incarceration program under Article 8 with a sentence of

10 (g) An offender sentenced to probation or to conditional
11discharge and who during the term of either undergoes
12mandatory drug or alcohol testing, or both, or is assigned to
13be placed on an approved electronic monitoring device, shall
14be ordered to pay all costs incidental to such mandatory drug
15or alcohol testing, or both, and all costs incidental to such
16approved electronic monitoring in accordance with the
17defendant's ability to pay those costs. The county board with
18the concurrence of the Chief Judge of the judicial circuit in
19which the county is located shall establish reasonable fees
20for the cost of maintenance, testing, and incidental expenses
21related to the mandatory drug or alcohol testing, or both, and
22all costs incidental to approved electronic monitoring,
23involved in a successful probation program for the county. The
24concurrence of the Chief Judge shall be in the form of an
25administrative order. The fees shall be collected by the clerk
26of the circuit court, except as provided in an administrative

HB2605- 406 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1order of the Chief Judge of the circuit court. The clerk of the
2circuit court shall pay all moneys collected from these fees
3to the county treasurer who shall use the moneys collected to
4defray the costs of drug testing, alcohol testing, and
5electronic monitoring. The county treasurer shall deposit the
6fees collected in the county working cash fund under Section
76-27001 or Section 6-29002 of the Counties Code, as the case
8may be. The Chief Judge of the circuit court of the county may
9by administrative order establish a program for electronic
10monitoring of offenders, in which a vendor supplies and
11monitors the operation of the electronic monitoring device,
12and collects the fees on behalf of the county. The program
13shall include provisions for indigent offenders and the
14collection of unpaid fees. The program shall not unduly burden
15the offender and shall be subject to review by the Chief Judge.
16 The Chief Judge of the circuit court may suspend any
17additional charges or fees for late payment, interest, or
18damage to any device.
19 (h) Jurisdiction over an offender may be transferred from
20the sentencing court to the court of another circuit with the
21concurrence of both courts. Further transfers or retransfers
22of jurisdiction are also authorized in the same manner. The
23court to which jurisdiction has been transferred shall have
24the same powers as the sentencing court. The probation
25department within the circuit to which jurisdiction has been
26transferred, or which has agreed to provide supervision, may

HB2605- 407 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1impose probation fees upon receiving the transferred offender,
2as provided in subsection (i). For all transfer cases, as
3defined in Section 9b of the Probation and Probation Officers
4Act, the probation department from the original sentencing
5court shall retain all probation fees collected prior to the
6transfer. After the transfer, all probation fees shall be paid
7to the probation department within the circuit to which
8jurisdiction has been transferred.
9 (i) The court shall impose upon an offender sentenced to
10probation after January 1, 1989 or to conditional discharge
11after January 1, 1992 or to community service under the
12supervision of a probation or court services department after
13January 1, 2004, as a condition of such probation or
14conditional discharge or supervised community service, a fee
15of $50 for each month of probation or conditional discharge
16supervision or supervised community service ordered by the
17court, unless after determining the inability of the person
18sentenced to probation or conditional discharge or supervised
19community service to pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser
20fee. The court may not impose the fee on a minor who is placed
21in the guardianship or custody of the Department of Children
22and Family Services under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 while
23the minor is in placement. The fee shall be imposed only upon
24an offender who is actively supervised by the probation and
25court services department. The fee shall be collected by the
26clerk of the circuit court. The clerk of the circuit court

HB2605- 408 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1shall pay all monies collected from this fee to the county
2treasurer for deposit in the probation and court services fund
3under Section 15.1 of the Probation and Probation Officers
4Act.
5 A circuit court may not impose a probation fee under this
6subsection (i) in excess of $25 per month unless the circuit
7court has adopted, by administrative order issued by the chief
8judge, a standard probation fee guide determining an
9offender's ability to pay. Of the amount collected as a
10probation fee, up to $5 of that fee collected per month may be
11used to provide services to crime victims and their families.
12 The Court may only waive probation fees based on an
13offender's ability to pay. The probation department may
14re-evaluate an offender's ability to pay every 6 months, and,
15with the approval of the Director of Court Services or the
16Chief Probation Officer, adjust the monthly fee amount. An
17offender may elect to pay probation fees due in a lump sum. Any
18offender that has been assigned to the supervision of a
19probation department, or has been transferred either under
20subsection (h) of this Section or under any interstate
21compact, shall be required to pay probation fees to the
22department supervising the offender, based on the offender's
23ability to pay.
24 Public Act 93-970 deletes the $10 increase in the fee
25under this subsection that was imposed by Public Act 93-616.
26This deletion is intended to control over any other Act of the

HB2605- 409 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
193rd General Assembly that retains or incorporates that fee
2increase.
3 (i-5) In addition to the fees imposed under subsection (i)
4of this Section, in the case of an offender convicted of a
5felony sex offense (as defined in the Sex Offender Management
6Board Act) or an offense that the court or probation
7department has determined to be sexually motivated (as defined
8in the Sex Offender Management Board Act), the court or the
9probation department shall assess additional fees to pay for
10all costs of treatment, assessment, evaluation for risk and
11treatment, and monitoring the offender, based on that
12offender's ability to pay those costs either as they occur or
13under a payment plan.
14 (j) All fines and costs imposed under this Section for any
15violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois Vehicle
16Code, or a similar provision of a local ordinance, and any
17violation of the Child Passenger Protection Act, or a similar
18provision of a local ordinance, shall be collected and
19disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under the Criminal
20and Traffic Assessment Act.
21 (k) Any offender who is sentenced to probation or
22conditional discharge for a felony sex offense as defined in
23the Sex Offender Management Board Act or any offense that the
24court or probation department has determined to be sexually
25motivated as defined in the Sex Offender Management Board Act
26shall be required to refrain from any contact, directly or

HB2605- 410 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1indirectly, with any persons specified by the court and shall
2be available for all evaluations and treatment programs
3required by the court or the probation department.
4 (l) The court may order an offender who is sentenced to
5probation or conditional discharge for a violation of an order
6of protection be placed under electronic surveillance as
7provided in Section 5-8A-7 of this Code.

9 Section 95. The Stalking No Contact Order Act is amended
10by changing Section 80 as follows:
11 (740 ILCS 21/80)
12 Sec. 80. Stalking no contact orders; remedies.
13 (a) If the court finds that the petitioner has been a
14victim of stalking, a stalking no contact order shall issue;
15provided that the petitioner must also satisfy the
16requirements of Section 95 on emergency orders or Section 100
17on plenary orders. The petitioner shall not be denied a
18stalking no contact order because the petitioner or the
19respondent is a minor. The court, when determining whether or
20not to issue a stalking no contact order, may not require
21physical injury on the person of the petitioner. Modification
22and extension of prior stalking no contact orders shall be in
23accordance with this Act.
24 (b) A stalking no contact order shall order one or more of

HB2605- 411 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1the following:
2 (1) prohibit the respondent from threatening to commit
3 or committing stalking;
4 (2) order the respondent not to have any contact with
5 the petitioner or a third person specifically named by the
6 court;
7 (3) prohibit the respondent from knowingly coming
8 within, or knowingly remaining within a specified distance
9 of the petitioner or the petitioner's residence, school,
10 daycare, or place of employment, or any specified place
11 frequented by the petitioner; however, the court may order
12 the respondent to stay away from the respondent's own
13 residence, school, or place of employment only if the
14 respondent has been provided actual notice of the
15 opportunity to appear and be heard on the petition;
16 (4) prohibit the respondent from possessing a Firearm
17 Owners Identification Card, or possessing or buying
18 firearms; and
19 (5) order other injunctive relief the court determines
20 to be necessary to protect the petitioner or third party
21 specifically named by the court.
22 (b-5) When the petitioner and the respondent attend the
23same public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or
24high school, the court when issuing a stalking no contact
25order and providing relief shall consider the severity of the
26act, any continuing physical danger or emotional distress to

HB2605- 412 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1the petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to the
2petitioner and respondent under federal and State law, the
3availability of a transfer of the respondent to another
4school, a change of placement or a change of program of the
5respondent, the expense, difficulty, and educational
6disruption that would be caused by a transfer of the
7respondent to another school, and any other relevant facts of
8the case. The court may order that the respondent not attend
9the public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or high
10school attended by the petitioner, order that the respondent
11accept a change of placement or program, as determined by the
12school district or private or non-public school, or place
13restrictions on the respondent's movements within the school
14attended by the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of
15proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a transfer,
16change of placement, or change of program of the respondent is
17not available. The respondent also bears the burden of
18production with respect to the expense, difficulty, and
19educational disruption that would be caused by a transfer of
20the respondent to another school. A transfer, change of
21placement, or change of program is not unavailable to the
22respondent solely on the ground that the respondent does not
23agree with the school district's or private or non-public
24school's transfer, change of placement, or change of program
25or solely on the ground that the respondent fails or refuses to
26consent to or otherwise does not take an action required to

HB2605- 413 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1effectuate a transfer, change of placement, or change of
2program. When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the
3public, private, or non-public school attended by the
4petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to another
5attendance center within the respondent's school district or
6private or non-public school, the school district or private
7or non-public school shall have sole discretion to determine
8the attendance center to which the respondent is transferred.
9In the event the court order results in a transfer of the minor
10respondent to another attendance center, a change in the
11respondent's placement, or a change of the respondent's
12program, the parents, guardian, or legal custodian of the
13respondent is responsible for transportation and other costs
14associated with the transfer or change.
15 (b-6) The court may order the parents, guardian, or legal
16custodian of a minor respondent to take certain actions or to
17refrain from taking certain actions to ensure that the
18respondent complies with the order. In the event the court
19orders a transfer of the respondent to another school, the
20parents, guardian, or legal custodian of the respondent are
21responsible for transportation and other costs associated with
22the change of school by the respondent.
23 (b-7) The court shall not hold a school district or
24private or non-public school or any of its employees in civil
25or criminal contempt unless the school district or private or
26non-public school has been allowed to intervene.

HB2605- 414 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 (b-8) The court may hold the parents, guardian, or legal
2custodian of a minor respondent in civil or criminal contempt
3for a violation of any provision of any order entered under
4this Act for conduct of the minor respondent in violation of
5this Act if the parents, guardian, or legal custodian
6directed, encouraged, or assisted the respondent minor in such
7conduct.
8 (c) The court may award the petitioner costs and attorneys
9fees if a stalking no contact order is granted.
10 (d) Monetary damages are not recoverable as a remedy.
11 (e) If the stalking no contact order prohibits the
12respondent from possessing a Firearm Owner's Identification
13Card, or possessing or buying firearms; the court shall
14confiscate the respondent's firearms Firearm Owner's
15Identification Card and immediately return the card to the
16Illinois State Police Firearm Owner's Identification Card
17Office.

21protection that has been issued. The enforcement of an order
22of protection under Section 223 shall not be affected by the
23lack of service, delivery, or notice, provided the
24requirements of subsection (d) of that Section are otherwise
25met.

HB2605- 423 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b

3sheriff or other law enforcement officer at the earliest time
4and shall take precedence over other summonses except those of
5a similar emergency nature. Special process servers may be
6appointed at any time, and their designation shall not affect
7the responsibilities and authority of the sheriff or other
8official process servers. In counties with a population over
93,000,000, a special process server may not be appointed if
10the order of protection grants the surrender of a child, the
11surrender of a firearm or firearm owners identification card,
12or the exclusive possession of a shared residence.
13 (d) Remedies requiring actual notice. The counseling,
14payment of support, payment of shelter services, and payment
15of losses remedies provided by paragraphs 4, 12, 13, and 16 of

226, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 15, and 17 of subsection (b) of Section
23214, but only if: (i) petitioner has made all reasonable
24efforts to accomplish actual service of process personally
25upon respondent, but respondent cannot be found to effect such
26service and (ii) petitioner files an affidavit or presents

HB2605- 424 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1sworn testimony as to those efforts.
2 (f) Default. A plenary order of protection may be entered
3by default as follows:
4 (1) For any of the remedies sought in the petition, if
5 respondent has been served or given notice in accordance

7 as directed or fails to appear on any subsequent
8 appearance or hearing date agreed to by the parties or set
9 by the court; or
10 (2) For any of the remedies provided in accordance
11 with subsection (e), if respondent fails to answer or

21 (750 ILCS 60/214) (from Ch. 40, par. 2312-14)
22 Sec. 214. Order of protection; remedies.
23 (a) Issuance of order. If the court finds that petitioner
24has been abused by a family or household member or that
25petitioner is a high-risk adult who has been abused,

HB2605- 425 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1neglected, or exploited, as defined in this Act, an order of
2protection prohibiting the abuse, neglect, or exploitation
3shall issue; provided that petitioner must also satisfy the
4requirements of one of the following Sections, as appropriate:
5Section 217 on emergency orders, Section 218 on interim
6orders, or Section 219 on plenary orders. Petitioner shall not
7be denied an order of protection because petitioner or
8respondent is a minor. The court, when determining whether or
9not to issue an order of protection, shall not require
10physical manifestations of abuse on the person of the victim.
11Modification and extension of prior orders of protection shall
12be in accordance with this Act.
13 (b) Remedies and standards. The remedies to be included in
14an order of protection shall be determined in accordance with
15this Section and one of the following Sections, as
16appropriate: Section 217 on emergency orders, Section 218 on
17interim orders, and Section 219 on plenary orders. The
18remedies listed in this subsection shall be in addition to
19other civil or criminal remedies available to petitioner.
20 (1) Prohibition of abuse, neglect, or exploitation.
21 Prohibit respondent's harassment, interference with
22 personal liberty, intimidation of a dependent, physical
23 abuse, or willful deprivation, neglect or exploitation, as
24 defined in this Act, or stalking of the petitioner, as
25 defined in Section 12-7.3 of the Criminal Code of 2012, if
26 such abuse, neglect, exploitation, or stalking has

HB2605- 426 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 occurred or otherwise appears likely to occur if not
2 prohibited.
3 (2) Grant of exclusive possession of residence.
4 Prohibit respondent from entering or remaining in any
5 residence, household, or premises of the petitioner,
6 including one owned or leased by respondent, if petitioner
7 has a right to occupancy thereof. The grant of exclusive
8 possession of the residence, household, or premises shall
9 not affect title to real property, nor shall the court be
10 limited by the standard set forth in subsection (c-2) of
11 Section 501 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
12 Marriage Act.
13 (A) Right to occupancy. A party has a right to
14 occupancy of a residence or household if it is solely
15 or jointly owned or leased by that party, that party's
16 spouse, a person with a legal duty to support that
17 party or a minor child in that party's care, or by any
18 person or entity other than the opposing party that
19 authorizes that party's occupancy (e.g., a domestic
20 violence shelter). Standards set forth in subparagraph
21 (B) shall not preclude equitable relief.
22 (B) Presumption of hardships. If petitioner and
23 respondent each has the right to occupancy of a
24 residence or household, the court shall balance (i)
25 the hardships to respondent and any minor child or
26 dependent adult in respondent's care resulting from

HB2605- 427 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 entry of this remedy with (ii) the hardships to
2 petitioner and any minor child or dependent adult in
3 petitioner's care resulting from continued exposure to
4 the risk of abuse (should petitioner remain at the
5 residence or household) or from loss of possession of
6 the residence or household (should petitioner leave to
7 avoid the risk of abuse). When determining the balance
8 of hardships, the court shall also take into account
9 the accessibility of the residence or household.
10 Hardships need not be balanced if respondent does not
11 have a right to occupancy.
12 The balance of hardships is presumed to favor
13 possession by petitioner unless the presumption is
14 rebutted by a preponderance of the evidence, showing
15 that the hardships to respondent substantially
16 outweigh the hardships to petitioner and any minor
17 child or dependent adult in petitioner's care. The
18 court, on the request of petitioner or on its own
19 motion, may order respondent to provide suitable,
20 accessible, alternate housing for petitioner instead
21 of excluding respondent from a mutual residence or
22 household.
23 (3) Stay away order and additional prohibitions. Order
24 respondent to stay away from petitioner or any other
25 person protected by the order of protection, or prohibit
26 respondent from entering or remaining present at

HB2605- 428 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 petitioner's school, place of employment, or other
2 specified places at times when petitioner is present, or
3 both, if reasonable, given the balance of hardships.
4 Hardships need not be balanced for the court to enter a
5 stay away order or prohibit entry if respondent has no
6 right to enter the premises.
7 (A) If an order of protection grants petitioner
8 exclusive possession of the residence, or prohibits
9 respondent from entering the residence, or orders
10 respondent to stay away from petitioner or other
11 protected persons, then the court may allow respondent
12 access to the residence to remove items of clothing
13 and personal adornment used exclusively by respondent,
14 medications, and other items as the court directs. The
15 right to access shall be exercised on only one
16 occasion as the court directs and in the presence of an
17 agreed-upon adult third party or law enforcement
18 officer.
19 (B) When the petitioner and the respondent attend
20 the same public, private, or non-public elementary,
21 middle, or high school, the court when issuing an
22 order of protection and providing relief shall
23 consider the severity of the act, any continuing
24 physical danger or emotional distress to the
25 petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to the
26 petitioner and respondent under federal and State law,

HB2605- 429 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 the availability of a transfer of the respondent to
2 another school, a change of placement or a change of
3 program of the respondent, the expense, difficulty,
4 and educational disruption that would be caused by a
5 transfer of the respondent to another school, and any
6 other relevant facts of the case. The court may order
7 that the respondent not attend the public, private, or
8 non-public elementary, middle, or high school attended
9 by the petitioner, order that the respondent accept a
10 change of placement or change of program, as
11 determined by the school district or private or
12 non-public school, or place restrictions on the
13 respondent's movements within the school attended by
14 the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of
15 proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a
16 transfer, change of placement, or change of program of
17 the respondent is not available. The respondent also
18 bears the burden of production with respect to the
19 expense, difficulty, and educational disruption that
20 would be caused by a transfer of the respondent to
21 another school. A transfer, change of placement, or
22 change of program is not unavailable to the respondent
23 solely on the ground that the respondent does not
24 agree with the school district's or private or
25 non-public school's transfer, change of placement, or
26 change of program or solely on the ground that the

HB2605- 430 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 respondent fails or refuses to consent or otherwise
2 does not take an action required to effectuate a
3 transfer, change of placement, or change of program.
4 When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the
5 public, private, or non-public school attended by the
6 petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to
7 another attendance center within the respondent's
8 school district or private or non-public school, the
9 school district or private or non-public school shall
10 have sole discretion to determine the attendance
11 center to which the respondent is transferred. In the
12 event the court order results in a transfer of the
13 minor respondent to another attendance center, a
14 change in the respondent's placement, or a change of
15 the respondent's program, the parents, guardian, or
16 legal custodian of the respondent is responsible for
17 transportation and other costs associated with the
18 transfer or change.
19 (C) The court may order the parents, guardian, or
20 legal custodian of a minor respondent to take certain
21 actions or to refrain from taking certain actions to
22 ensure that the respondent complies with the order. In
23 the event the court orders a transfer of the
24 respondent to another school, the parents, guardian,
25 or legal custodian of the respondent is responsible
26 for transportation and other costs associated with the

HB2605- 431 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 change of school by the respondent.
2 (4) Counseling. Require or recommend the respondent to
3 undergo counseling for a specified duration with a social
4 worker, psychologist, clinical psychologist,
5 psychiatrist, family service agency, alcohol or substance
6 abuse program, mental health center guidance counselor,
7 agency providing services to elders, program designed for
8 domestic violence abusers or any other guidance service
9 the court deems appropriate. The Court may order the
10 respondent in any intimate partner relationship to report
11 to an Illinois Department of Human Services protocol
12 approved partner abuse intervention program for an
13 assessment and to follow all recommended treatment.
14 (5) Physical care and possession of the minor child.
15 In order to protect the minor child from abuse, neglect,
16 or unwarranted separation from the person who has been the
17 minor child's primary caretaker, or to otherwise protect
18 the well-being of the minor child, the court may do either
19 or both of the following: (i) grant petitioner physical
20 care or possession of the minor child, or both, or (ii)
21 order respondent to return a minor child to, or not remove
22 a minor child from, the physical care of a parent or person
23 in loco parentis.
24 If a court finds, after a hearing, that respondent has
25 committed abuse (as defined in Section 103) of a minor
26 child, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that

HB2605- 432 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 awarding physical care to respondent would not be in the
2 minor child's best interest.
3 (6) Temporary allocation of parental responsibilities:
4 significant decision-making. Award temporary
5 decision-making responsibility to petitioner in accordance
6 with this Section, the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution
7 of Marriage Act, the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015, and
8 this State's Uniform Child-Custody Jurisdiction and
9 Enforcement Act.
10 If a court finds, after a hearing, that respondent has
11 committed abuse (as defined in Section 103) of a minor
12 child, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that
13 awarding temporary significant decision-making
14 responsibility to respondent would not be in the child's
15 best interest.
16 (7) Parenting time. Determine the parenting time, if
17 any, of respondent in any case in which the court awards
18 physical care or allocates temporary significant
19 decision-making responsibility of a minor child to
20 petitioner. The court shall restrict or deny respondent's
21 parenting time with a minor child if the court finds that
22 respondent has done or is likely to do any of the
23 following: (i) abuse or endanger the minor child during
24 parenting time; (ii) use the parenting time as an
25 opportunity to abuse or harass petitioner or petitioner's
26 family or household members; (iii) improperly conceal or

HB2605- 433 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 detain the minor child; or (iv) otherwise act in a manner
2 that is not in the best interests of the minor child. The
3 court shall not be limited by the standards set forth in
4 Section 603.10 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
5 Marriage Act. If the court grants parenting time, the
6 order shall specify dates and times for the parenting time
7 to take place or other specific parameters or conditions
8 that are appropriate. No order for parenting time shall
9 refer merely to the term "reasonable parenting time".
10 Petitioner may deny respondent access to the minor
11 child if, when respondent arrives for parenting time,
12 respondent is under the influence of drugs or alcohol and
13 constitutes a threat to the safety and well-being of
14 petitioner or petitioner's minor children or is behaving
15 in a violent or abusive manner.
16 If necessary to protect any member of petitioner's
17 family or household from future abuse, respondent shall be
18 prohibited from coming to petitioner's residence to meet
19 the minor child for parenting time, and the parties shall
20 submit to the court their recommendations for reasonable
21 alternative arrangements for parenting time. A person may
22 be approved to supervise parenting time only after filing
23 an affidavit accepting that responsibility and
24 acknowledging accountability to the court.
25 (8) Removal or concealment of minor child. Prohibit
26 respondent from removing a minor child from the State or

HB2605- 434 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 concealing the child within the State.
2 (9) Order to appear. Order the respondent to appear in
3 court, alone or with a minor child, to prevent abuse,
4 neglect, removal or concealment of the child, to return
5 the child to the custody or care of the petitioner or to
6 permit any court-ordered interview or examination of the
7 child or the respondent.
8 (10) Possession of personal property. Grant petitioner
9 exclusive possession of personal property and, if
10 respondent has possession or control, direct respondent to
11 promptly make it available to petitioner, if:
12 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
13 property; or
14 (ii) the parties own the property jointly; sharing
15 it would risk abuse of petitioner by respondent or is
16 impracticable; and the balance of hardships favors
17 temporary possession by petitioner.
18 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the
19 property is that it is marital property, the court may
20 award petitioner temporary possession thereof under the
21 standards of subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph only if a
22 proper proceeding has been filed under the Illinois
23 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as now or
24 hereafter amended.
25 No order under this provision shall affect title to
26 property.

HB2605- 435 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 (11) Protection of property. Forbid the respondent
2 from taking, transferring, encumbering, concealing,
3 damaging or otherwise disposing of any real or personal
4 property, except as explicitly authorized by the court,
5 if:
6 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the
7 property; or
8 (ii) the parties own the property jointly, and the
9 balance of hardships favors granting this remedy.
10 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the
11 property is that it is marital property, the court may
12 grant petitioner relief under subparagraph (ii) of this
13 paragraph only if a proper proceeding has been filed under
14 the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
15 now or hereafter amended.
16 The court may further prohibit respondent from
17 improperly using the financial or other resources of an
18 aged member of the family or household for the profit or
19 advantage of respondent or of any other person.
20 (11.5) Protection of animals. Grant the petitioner the
21 exclusive care, custody, or control of any animal owned,
22 possessed, leased, kept, or held by either the petitioner
23 or the respondent or a minor child residing in the
24 residence or household of either the petitioner or the
25 respondent and order the respondent to stay away from the
26 animal and forbid the respondent from taking,

HB2605- 436 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 transferring, encumbering, concealing, harming, or
2 otherwise disposing of the animal.
3 (12) Order for payment of support. Order respondent to
4 pay temporary support for the petitioner or any child in
5 the petitioner's care or over whom the petitioner has been
6 allocated parental responsibility, when the respondent has
7 a legal obligation to support that person, in accordance
8 with the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage
9 Act, which shall govern, among other matters, the amount
10 of support, payment through the clerk and withholding of
11 income to secure payment. An order for child support may
12 be granted to a petitioner with lawful physical care of a
13 child, or an order or agreement for physical care of a
14 child, prior to entry of an order allocating significant
15 decision-making responsibility. Such a support order shall
16 expire upon entry of a valid order allocating parental
17 responsibility differently and vacating the petitioner's
18 significant decision-making authority, unless otherwise
19 provided in the order.
20 (13) Order for payment of losses. Order respondent to
21 pay petitioner for losses suffered as a direct result of
22 the abuse, neglect, or exploitation. Such losses shall
23 include, but not be limited to, medical expenses, lost
24 earnings or other support, repair or replacement of
25 property damaged or taken, reasonable attorney's fees,
26 court costs and moving or other travel expenses, including

HB2605- 437 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 additional reasonable expenses for temporary shelter and
2 restaurant meals.
3 (i) Losses affecting family needs. If a party is
4 entitled to seek maintenance, child support or
5 property distribution from the other party under the
6 Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as
7 now or hereafter amended, the court may order
8 respondent to reimburse petitioner's actual losses, to
9 the extent that such reimbursement would be
10 "appropriate temporary relief", as authorized by
11 subsection (a)(3) of Section 501 of that Act.
12 (ii) Recovery of expenses. In the case of an
13 improper concealment or removal of a minor child, the
14 court may order respondent to pay the reasonable
15 expenses incurred or to be incurred in the search for
16 and recovery of the minor child, including but not
17 limited to legal fees, court costs, private
18 investigator fees, and travel costs.
19 (14) Prohibition of entry. Prohibit the respondent
20 from entering or remaining in the residence or household
21 while the respondent is under the influence of alcohol or
22 drugs and constitutes a threat to the safety and
23 well-being of the petitioner or the petitioner's children.
24 (14.5) Prohibition of firearm possession.
25 (a) Prohibit a respondent against whom an order of
26 protection was issued from possessing any firearms

HB2605- 438 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 during the duration of the order if the order:
2 (1) was issued after a hearing of which such
3 person received actual notice, and at which such
4 person had an opportunity to participate;
5 (2) restrains such person from harassing,
6 stalking, or threatening an intimate partner of
7 such person or child of such intimate partner or
8 person, or engaging in other conduct that would
9 place an intimate partner in reasonable fear of
10 bodily injury to the partner or child; and
11 (3)(i) includes a finding that such person
12 represents a credible threat to the physical
13 safety of such intimate partner or child; or (ii)
14 by its terms explicitly prohibits the use,
15 attempted use, or threatened use of physical force
16 against such intimate partner or child that would
17 reasonably be expected to cause bodily injury.
18 Any Firearm Owner's Identification Card in the
19 possession of the respondent, except as provided in
20 subsection (b), shall be ordered by the court to be
21 turned over to the local law enforcement agency. The
22 local law enforcement agency shall immediately mail
23 the card to the Illinois State Police Firearm Owner's
24 Identification Card Office for safekeeping. The court
25 shall issue a warrant for seizure of any firearm in the
26 possession of the respondent, to be kept by the local

HB2605- 439 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 law enforcement agency for safekeeping, except as
2 provided in subsection (b). The period of safekeeping
3 shall be for the duration of the order of protection.
4 The firearm or firearms and Firearm Owner's
5 Identification Card, if unexpired, shall at the
6 respondent's request, be returned to the respondent at
7 the end of the order of protection. It is the
8 respondent's responsibility to notify the Illinois
9 State Police Firearm Owner's Identification Card
10 Office.
11 (b) If the respondent is a peace officer as
12 defined in Section 2-13 of the Criminal Code of 2012,
13 the court shall order that any firearms used by the
14 respondent in the performance of his or her duties as a
15 peace officer be surrendered to the chief law
16 enforcement executive of the agency in which the
17 respondent is employed, who shall retain the firearms
18 for safekeeping for the duration of the order of
19 protection.
20 (c) Upon expiration of the period of safekeeping,
21 if the firearms or Firearm Owner's Identification Card
22 cannot be returned to respondent because respondent
23 cannot be located, fails to respond to requests to
24 retrieve the firearms, or is not lawfully eligible to
25 possess a firearm, upon petition from the local law
26 enforcement agency, the court may order the local law

HB2605- 440 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 enforcement agency to destroy the firearms, use the
2 firearms for training purposes, or for any other
3 application as deemed appropriate by the local law
4 enforcement agency; or that the firearms be turned
5 over to a third party who is lawfully eligible to
6 possess firearms, and who does not reside with
7 respondent.
8 (15) Prohibition of access to records. If an order of
9 protection prohibits respondent from having contact with
10 the minor child, or if petitioner's address is omitted
11 under subsection (b) of Section 203, or if necessary to
12 prevent abuse or wrongful removal or concealment of a
13 minor child, the order shall deny respondent access to,
14 and prohibit respondent from inspecting, obtaining, or
15 attempting to inspect or obtain, school or any other
16 records of the minor child who is in the care of
17 petitioner.
18 (16) Order for payment of shelter services. Order
19 respondent to reimburse a shelter providing temporary
20 housing and counseling services to the petitioner for the
21 cost of the services, as certified by the shelter and
22 deemed reasonable by the court.
23 (17) Order for injunctive relief. Enter injunctive
24 relief necessary or appropriate to prevent further abuse
25 of a family or household member or further abuse, neglect,
26 or exploitation of a high-risk adult with disabilities or

HB2605- 441 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 to effectuate one of the granted remedies, if supported by
2 the balance of hardships. If the harm to be prevented by
3 the injunction is abuse or any other harm that one of the
4 remedies listed in paragraphs (1) through (16) of this
5 subsection is designed to prevent, no further evidence is
6 necessary that the harm is an irreparable injury.
7 (18) Telephone services.
8 (A) Unless a condition described in subparagraph
9 (B) of this paragraph exists, the court may, upon
10 request by the petitioner, order a wireless telephone
11 service provider to transfer to the petitioner the
12 right to continue to use a telephone number or numbers
13 indicated by the petitioner and the financial
14 responsibility associated with the number or numbers,
15 as set forth in subparagraph (C) of this paragraph.
16 For purposes of this paragraph (18), the term
17 "wireless telephone service provider" means a provider
18 of commercial mobile service as defined in 47 U.S.C.
19 332. The petitioner may request the transfer of each
20 telephone number that the petitioner, or a minor child
21 in his or her custody, uses. The clerk of the court
22 shall serve the order on the wireless telephone
23 service provider's agent for service of process
24 provided to the Illinois Commerce Commission. The
25 order shall contain all of the following:
26 (i) The name and billing telephone number of

HB2605- 442 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 the account holder including the name of the
2 wireless telephone service provider that serves
3 the account.
4 (ii) Each telephone number that will be
5 transferred.
6 (iii) A statement that the provider transfers
7 to the petitioner all financial responsibility for
8 and right to the use of any telephone number
9 transferred under this paragraph.
10 (B) A wireless telephone service provider shall
11 terminate the respondent's use of, and shall transfer
12 to the petitioner use of, the telephone number or
13 numbers indicated in subparagraph (A) of this
14 paragraph unless it notifies the petitioner, within 72
15 hours after it receives the order, that one of the
16 following applies:
17 (i) The account holder named in the order has
18 terminated the account.
19 (ii) A difference in network technology would
20 prevent or impair the functionality of a device on
21 a network if the transfer occurs.
22 (iii) The transfer would cause a geographic or
23 other limitation on network or service provision
24 to the petitioner.
25 (iv) Another technological or operational
26 issue would prevent or impair the use of the

HB2605- 443 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 telephone number if the transfer occurs.
2 (C) The petitioner assumes all financial
3 responsibility for and right to the use of any
4 telephone number transferred under this paragraph. In
5 this paragraph, "financial responsibility" includes
6 monthly service costs and costs associated with any
7 mobile device associated with the number.
8 (D) A wireless telephone service provider may
9 apply to the petitioner its routine and customary
10 requirements for establishing an account or
11 transferring a number, including requiring the
12 petitioner to provide proof of identification,
13 financial information, and customer preferences.
14 (E) Except for willful or wanton misconduct, a
15 wireless telephone service provider is immune from
16 civil liability for its actions taken in compliance
17 with a court order issued under this paragraph.
18 (F) All wireless service providers that provide

25 (G) The Illinois Commerce Commission shall
26 maintain the list of registered agents for service for

HB2605- 444 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 each wireless telephone service provider on the
2 Commission's website. The Commission may consult with
3 wireless telephone service providers and the Circuit
4 Court Clerks on the manner in which this information
5 is provided and displayed.
6 (c) Relevant factors; findings.
7 (1) In determining whether to grant a specific remedy,
8 other than payment of support, the court shall consider
9 relevant factors, including but not limited to the
10 following:
11 (i) the nature, frequency, severity, pattern and
12 consequences of the respondent's past abuse, neglect
13 or exploitation of the petitioner or any family or
14 household member, including the concealment of his or
15 her location in order to evade service of process or
16 notice, and the likelihood of danger of future abuse,
17 neglect, or exploitation to petitioner or any member
18 of petitioner's or respondent's family or household;
19 and
20 (ii) the danger that any minor child will be
21 abused or neglected or improperly relocated from the
22 jurisdiction, improperly concealed within the State or
23 improperly separated from the child's primary
24 caretaker.
25 (2) In comparing relative hardships resulting to the
26 parties from loss of possession of the family home, the

HB2605- 445 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 court shall consider relevant factors, including but not
2 limited to the following:
3 (i) availability, accessibility, cost, safety,
4 adequacy, location and other characteristics of
5 alternate housing for each party and any minor child
6 or dependent adult in the party's care;
7 (ii) the effect on the party's employment; and
8 (iii) the effect on the relationship of the party,
9 and any minor child or dependent adult in the party's
10 care, to family, school, church and community.
11 (3) Subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph
12 (4) of this subsection, the court shall make its findings
13 in an official record or in writing, and shall at a minimum
14 set forth the following:
15 (i) That the court has considered the applicable
16 relevant factors described in paragraphs (1) and (2)
17 of this subsection.
18 (ii) Whether the conduct or actions of respondent,
19 unless prohibited, will likely cause irreparable harm
20 or continued abuse.
21 (iii) Whether it is necessary to grant the
22 requested relief in order to protect petitioner or
23 other alleged abused persons.
24 (4) For purposes of issuing an ex parte emergency
25 order of protection, the court, as an alternative to or as
26 a supplement to making the findings described in

HB2605- 446 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 paragraphs (c)(3)(i) through (c)(3)(iii) of this
2 subsection, may use the following procedure:
3 When a verified petition for an emergency order of
4 protection in accordance with the requirements of Sections
5 203 and 217 is presented to the court, the court shall
6 examine petitioner on oath or affirmation. An emergency
7 order of protection shall be issued by the court if it
8 appears from the contents of the petition and the
9 examination of petitioner that the averments are
10 sufficient to indicate abuse by respondent and to support
11 the granting of relief under the issuance of the emergency
12 order of protection.
13 (5) Never married parties. No rights or
14 responsibilities for a minor child born outside of
15 marriage attach to a putative father until a father and
16 child relationship has been established under the Illinois
17 Parentage Act of 1984, the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015,
18 the Illinois Public Aid Code, Section 12 of the Vital
19 Records Act, the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Probate
20 Act of 1975, the Revised Uniform Reciprocal Enforcement of
21 Support Act, the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act,
22 the Expedited Child Support Act of 1990, any judicial,
23 administrative, or other act of another state or
24 territory, any other Illinois statute, or by any foreign
25 nation establishing the father and child relationship, any
26 other proceeding substantially in conformity with the

HB2605- 447 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity
2 Reconciliation Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-193), or where
3 both parties appeared in open court or at an
4 administrative hearing acknowledging under oath or
5 admitting by affirmation the existence of a father and
6 child relationship. Absent such an adjudication, finding,
7 or acknowledgment, no putative father shall be granted
8 temporary allocation of parental responsibilities,
9 including parenting time with the minor child, or physical
10 care and possession of the minor child, nor shall an order
11 of payment for support of the minor child be entered.
12 (d) Balance of hardships; findings. If the court finds
13that the balance of hardships does not support the granting of
14a remedy governed by paragraph (2), (3), (10), (11), or (16) of
15subsection (b) of this Section, which may require such
16balancing, the court's findings shall so indicate and shall
17include a finding as to whether granting the remedy will
18result in hardship to respondent that would substantially
19outweigh the hardship to petitioner from denial of the remedy.
20The findings shall be an official record or in writing.
21 (e) Denial of remedies. Denial of any remedy shall not be
22based, in whole or in part, on evidence that:
23 (1) Respondent has cause for any use of force, unless
24 that cause satisfies the standards for justifiable use of
25 force provided by Article 7 of the Criminal Code of 2012;
26 (2) Respondent was voluntarily intoxicated;

HB2605- 448 -LRB103 26047 RLC 52402 b
1 (3) Petitioner acted in self-defense or defense of
2 another, provided that, if petitioner utilized force, such
3 force was justifiable under Article 7 of the Criminal Code
4 of 2012;
5 (4) Petitioner did not act in self-defense or defense
6 of another;
7 (5) Petitioner left the residence or household to
8 avoid further abuse, neglect, or exploitation by
9 respondent;
10 (6) Petitioner did not leave the residence or
11 household to avoid further abuse, neglect, or exploitation
12 by respondent;
13 (7) Conduct by any family or household member excused
14 the abuse, neglect, or exploitation by respondent, unless
15 that same conduct would have excused such abuse, neglect,
16 or exploitation if the parties had not been family or
17 household members.
