HB5020 Enrolled LRB104 19811 RLC 33261 b
AN ACT concerning courts.
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
Section 5. The Juvenile Court Act of 1987 is amended by
changing Section 5-810 as follows:
(705 ILCS 405/5-810)
Sec. 5-810. Extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecutions.
(1)(a) The [If the] State's Attorney may file [files] a
written petition, at any time prior to commencement of the
minor's trial, to designate the proceeding as an extended
jurisdiction juvenile prosecution when [and] the petition
alleges the commission by a minor 13 years of age or older of
any offense which would be a felony if committed by an adult[, ]
[and, if the juvenile judge assigned to hear and determine ]
[petitions to designate the proceeding as an extended ]
[jurisdiction juvenile prosecution determines that there is ]
[probable cause to believe that the allegations in the petition ]
[and motion are true, there is a rebuttable presumption that ]
[the proceeding shall be designated as an extended jurisdiction ]
[juvenile proceeding].
(b) Upon filing of a petition, the [The] judge shall conduct
a hearing at which he or she shall first determine whether
there is probable cause to believe that the allegations in the
HB5020 Enrolled - 2 - LRB104 19811 RLC 33261 b
petition and motion are true. If probable cause is found, the
judge shall enter an order designating the proceeding as an
extended jurisdiction juvenile proceeding if [unless] the judge
makes a finding based on clear and convincing evidence that
sentencing under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections
may [would not] be appropriate for the minor based on an
evaluation of the following factors:
(i) the minor's age at the time of the offense,
including the ability to consider risks and consequences
of behavior, and any presence of cognitive or
developmental disability, or both, including if a
comprehensive mental health evaluation of the minor was
conducted by a qualified mental health professional, the
outcome of the evaluation [age of the minor];
(ii) the history of the minor, including:
(A) any previous delinquent or criminal history of
the minor; [,]
(B) the minor's family, home environment,
educational and social background, including any
history of parental neglect, domestic or sexual
violence, sexual exploitation, physical abuse, or
other childhood trauma including adverse childhood
experiences; [any previous abuse or neglect history of ]
[the minor,]
[(C) any mental health, physical and/or educational ]
[history of the minor, and]
HB5020 Enrolled - 3 - LRB104 19811 RLC 33261 b
[(D) any involvement of the minor in the child ]
[welfare system;]
(iii) the circumstances of the offense, including:
(A) the seriousness of the offense; [,]
(B) (blank); [whether the minor is charged through ]
[accountability,]
(C) whether there is evidence the offense was
committed in an aggressive and premeditated manner; [,]
(D) whether there is evidence the offense caused
serious bodily harm; [,]
(E) whether there is evidence the minor possessed
a deadly weapon; [,]
(F) whether there is evidence the minor was
subjected to outside pressure, including peer
pressure, familial pressure, or negative influences; [,]
and
(G) the minor's degree of participation and
specific role in the offense, including the level of
planning by the minor before the offense and whether
the minor is charged through accountability;
(iv) the advantages of treatment within the juvenile
justice system including whether there are facilities or
programs, or both, particularly available in the juvenile
system, and the minor's potential for rehabilitation or
evidence of rehabilitation, or both. [;]
[(v) whether the security of the public requires ]
HB5020 Enrolled - 4 - LRB104 19811 RLC 33261 b
[sentencing under Chapter V of the Unified Code of ]
[Corrections:]
[(A) the minor's history of services, including the ]
[minor's willingness to participate meaningfully in ]
[available services;]
[(B) whether there is a reasonable likelihood that ]
[the minor can be rehabilitated before the expiration ]
[of the juvenile court's jurisdiction;]
[(C) the adequacy of the punishment or services.]
The trial court shall specify on the record its
consideration of these factors [In considering these factors, ]
[the court shall give greater weight to the seriousness of the ]
[alleged offense, and the minor's prior record of delinquency ]
[than to other factors listed in this subsection].
(2) Procedures for extended jurisdiction juvenile
prosecutions. The State's Attorney may file a written motion
for a proceeding to be designated as an extended jurisdiction
juvenile prosecution [jurisdiction] prior to commencement of
trial. Notice of the motion shall be in compliance with
Section 5-530. When the State's Attorney files a written
motion that a proceeding be designated an extended
jurisdiction juvenile prosecution, the court shall commence a
hearing within 30 days of the filing of the motion for
designation, unless good cause is shown by the prosecution or
the minor as to why the hearing could not be held within this
time period. If the court finds good cause has been
HB5020 Enrolled - 5 - LRB104 19811 RLC 33261 b
demonstrated, then the hearing shall be held within 60 days of
the filing of the motion. The minor may waive these timelines
[The hearings shall be open to the public unless the judge finds ]
[that the hearing should be closed for the protection of any ]
[party, victim or witness. If the Juvenile Judge assigned to ]
[hear and determine a motion to designate an extended ]
[jurisdiction juvenile prosecution determines that there is ]
[probable cause to believe that the allegations in the petition ]
[and motion are true the court shall grant the motion for ]
[designation]. Information used by the court in its findings or
stated in or offered in connection with this Section may be by
way of proffer based on reliable information offered by the
State or the minor. All evidence shall be admissible if it is
relevant and reliable regardless of whether it would be
admissible under the rules of evidence.
(3) Trial. A minor who is the subject of an extended
jurisdiction juvenile prosecution has the right to trial by
jury. Any trial under this Section shall be open to the public.
(4) Sentencing. If an extended jurisdiction juvenile
prosecution under subsection (1) results in a guilty plea, a
verdict of guilty, or a finding of guilt, the court shall
impose the following:
(i) one or more juvenile sentences under Section
5-710; and
(ii) an adult criminal sentence in accordance with the
provisions of Section 5-4.5-105 of the Unified Code of
HB5020 Enrolled - 6 - LRB104 19811 RLC 33261 b
Corrections, the execution of which shall be stayed on the
condition that the minor [offender] not violate the
provisions of the juvenile sentence.
Any sentencing hearing under this Section shall be open to the
public.
(5) If, after an extended jurisdiction juvenile
prosecution trial, a minor is convicted of a lesser-included
offense or of an offense that the State's Attorney did not
designate as an extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution,
the State's Attorney may file a written motion, within 10 days
of the finding of guilt, that the minor be sentenced subject to
[as an] extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution [offender]. The
court shall rule on this motion using the factors found in
paragraph (b) of subsection (1) and the procedures in
subsection (2) [paragraph (1)(b) of Section 5-805]. If the court
denies the State's Attorney's motion for sentencing under the
extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution provision, the
court shall proceed to sentence the minor under Section 5-710.
(6) When it appears that a minor adjudicated delinquent
[convicted] in an extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution
[under subsection (1) has violated the conditions of the ]
[minor's sentence, or] is alleged to have committed a new
offense that would be a forcible felony if committed by an
adult, the felony offense of aggravated fleeing or attempting
to elude a peace officer, or a felony offense involving the use
or unlawful possession of a firearm, the State's Attorney may
HB5020 Enrolled - 7 - LRB104 19811 RLC 33261 b
file a petition to revoke the stay. The State's Attorney must
notify the minor, the minor's counsel, and the minor's parents
or guardians of the [upon the filing of a] petition to revoke the
stay, after which the court may[, without notice,] issue a
warrant for the arrest of the minor. After a hearing, if the
court finds by clear and convincing evidence [a preponderance ]
[of the evidence] that the minor committed a new qualifying
offense, there is a rebuttable presumption that the court
shall order execution of the previously imposed adult criminal
sentence if the new offense is a forcible felony as defined in
paragraph (1.5) of subsection (a) of Section 110-6.1 of the
Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963 or a Class 3 or higher
felony offense involving use or unlawful possession of a
firearm. For all other qualifying offenses, the court may
order execution of the previously imposed adult criminal
sentence if, after a hearing, the court has found by clear and
convincing evidence the minor committed the offense. If the
court declines to order execution of the previously imposed
adult criminal sentence, the court may continue the minor on
the existing juvenile sentence with or without modifying or
enlarging the conditions. After a hearing, if the court finds
by clear and convincing evidence [a preponderance of the ]
[evidence] that the minor committed a violation of the minor's
sentence other than by a new offense, the court may [order ]
[execution of the previously imposed adult criminal sentence or ]
[may] continue the minor on the existing juvenile sentence with
HB5020 Enrolled - 8 - LRB104 19811 RLC 33261 b
or without modifying or enlarging the conditions. Upon
revocation of the stay of the adult criminal sentence and
imposition of that sentence, the minor's extended jurisdiction
juvenile status shall be terminated. The on-going jurisdiction
over the minor's case shall be assumed by the adult criminal
court and juvenile court jurisdiction shall be terminated and
a report of the imposition of the adult sentence shall be sent
to the Illinois State Police.
(7) Upon successful completion of the juvenile sentence
the court shall vacate the adult criminal sentence.
(8) Nothing in this Section precludes the State from
filing a motion for transfer under Section 5-805.
(Source: P.A. 103-22, eff. 8-8-23; 103-191, eff. 1-1-24;
103-605, eff. 7-1-24.)

Reinserts the provisions of the engrossed bill. Provides that if an adjudicated delinquent in an extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecution is alleged to have committed a new qualifying offense, other than a forcible felony, as defined in the denial of pretrial release provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963 or a Class 3 or higher felony offense involving use or unlawful possession of a firearm, the court may order execution of the previously imposed adult criminal sentence if, after a hearing, the court has found by clear and convincing evidence the minor committed the offense. Provides that if the court declines to order execution of the previously imposed adult criminal sentence, the court may continue the minor on the existing juvenile sentence with or without modifying or enlarging the conditions. Makes other changes.
