1 | AMENDMENT TO HOUSE BILL 1689
| ||||||
2 | AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend House Bill 1689 by replacing | ||||||
3 | everything after the enacting clause with the following:
| ||||||
4 | "Section 5. The Unified Code of Corrections is amended by | ||||||
5 | changing Section 5-5-6 as follows:
| ||||||
6 | (730 ILCS 5/5-5-6) (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-5-6)
| ||||||
7 | (Text of Section after amendment by P.A. 96-1551 )
| ||||||
8 | Sec. 5-5-6. In all convictions for offenses in violation of | ||||||
9 | the Criminal
Code of 1961 or of Section 11-501 of the Illinois | ||||||
10 | Vehicle Code in which the person received any injury to his or | ||||||
11 | her person or damage
to his or her real or personal property as | ||||||
12 | a result of the criminal act of the
defendant, the court shall | ||||||
13 | order restitution as provided in this Section. In
all other | ||||||
14 | cases, except cases in which restitution is required under this
| ||||||
15 | Section, the court must at the sentence hearing determine | ||||||
16 | whether restitution
is an appropriate sentence to be imposed on |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | each defendant convicted of an
offense. If the court determines | ||||||
2 | that an order directing the offender to make
restitution is | ||||||
3 | appropriate, the offender may be sentenced to make restitution.
| ||||||
4 | The court may consider restitution an appropriate sentence to | ||||||
5 | be imposed on each defendant convicted of an offense in | ||||||
6 | addition to a sentence of imprisonment. The sentence of the | ||||||
7 | defendant to a term of imprisonment is not a mitigating factor | ||||||
8 | that prevents the court from ordering the defendant to pay | ||||||
9 | restitution. If
the offender is sentenced to make restitution | ||||||
10 | the Court shall determine the
restitution as hereinafter set | ||||||
11 | forth:
| ||||||
12 | (a) At the sentence hearing, the court shall determine | ||||||
13 | whether the
property
may be restored in kind to the | ||||||
14 | possession of the owner or the person entitled
to | ||||||
15 | possession thereof; or whether the defendant is possessed | ||||||
16 | of sufficient
skill to repair and restore property damaged; | ||||||
17 | or whether the defendant should
be required to make | ||||||
18 | restitution in cash, for out-of-pocket expenses, damages,
| ||||||
19 | losses, or injuries found to have been proximately caused | ||||||
20 | by the conduct
of the defendant or another for whom the | ||||||
21 | defendant is legally accountable
under the provisions of | ||||||
22 | Article V of the Criminal Code of 1961.
| ||||||
23 | (b) In fixing the amount of restitution to be paid in | ||||||
24 | cash, the court
shall allow credit for property returned in | ||||||
25 | kind, for property damages ordered
to be repaired by the | ||||||
26 | defendant, and for property ordered to be restored
by the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | defendant; and after granting the credit, the court shall | ||||||
2 | assess
the actual out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages, | ||||||
3 | and injuries suffered
by the victim named in the charge and | ||||||
4 | any other victims who may also have
suffered out-of-pocket | ||||||
5 | expenses, losses, damages, and injuries proximately
caused | ||||||
6 | by the same criminal conduct of the defendant, and | ||||||
7 | insurance
carriers who have indemnified the named victim or | ||||||
8 | other victims for the
out-of-pocket expenses, losses, | ||||||
9 | damages, or injuries, provided that in no
event shall | ||||||
10 | restitution be ordered to be paid on account of pain and
| ||||||
11 | suffering. If a defendant is placed on supervision for, or | ||||||
12 | convicted of,
domestic battery, the defendant shall be | ||||||
13 | required to pay restitution to any
domestic violence | ||||||
14 | shelter in which the victim and any other family or | ||||||
15 | household
members lived because of the domestic battery. | ||||||
16 | The amount of the restitution
shall equal the actual | ||||||
17 | expenses of the domestic violence shelter in providing
| ||||||
18 | housing and any other services for the victim and any other | ||||||
19 | family or household
members living at the shelter. If a | ||||||
20 | defendant fails to pay restitution in
the manner or within
| ||||||
21 | the time period specified by the court, the court may enter | ||||||
22 | an order
directing the sheriff to seize any real or | ||||||
23 | personal property of a defendant
to the extent necessary to | ||||||
24 | satisfy the order of restitution and dispose of
the | ||||||
25 | property by public sale. All proceeds from such sale in | ||||||
26 | excess of the
amount of restitution plus court costs and |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the costs of the sheriff in
conducting the sale shall be | ||||||
2 | paid to the defendant. The defendant convicted of
domestic | ||||||
3 | battery, if a person under 18 years of age was present and | ||||||
4 | witnessed the domestic battery of the
victim, is liable to | ||||||
5 | pay restitution for the cost of any counseling required
for
| ||||||
6 | the child at the discretion of the court.
| ||||||
7 | (c) In cases where more than one defendant is | ||||||
8 | accountable for the same
criminal conduct that results in | ||||||
9 | out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages,
or injuries, each | ||||||
10 | defendant shall be ordered to pay restitution in the amount
| ||||||
11 | of the total actual out-of-pocket expenses, losses, | ||||||
12 | damages, or injuries
to the victim proximately caused by | ||||||
13 | the conduct of all of the defendants
who are legally | ||||||
14 | accountable for the offense.
| ||||||
15 | (1) In no event shall the victim be entitled to | ||||||
16 | recover restitution in
excess of the actual | ||||||
17 | out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages, or injuries,
| ||||||
18 | proximately caused by the conduct of all of the | ||||||
19 | defendants.
| ||||||
20 | (2) As between the defendants, the court may | ||||||
21 | apportion the restitution
that is payable in | ||||||
22 | proportion to each co-defendant's culpability in the
| ||||||
23 | commission of the offense.
| ||||||
24 | (3) In the absence of a specific order apportioning | ||||||
25 | the restitution,
each defendant shall bear his pro rata | ||||||
26 | share of the restitution.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (4) As between the defendants, each defendant | ||||||
2 | shall be entitled to a pro
rata reduction in the total | ||||||
3 | restitution required to be paid to the victim
for | ||||||
4 | amounts of restitution actually paid by co-defendants, | ||||||
5 | and defendants
who shall have paid more than their pro | ||||||
6 | rata share shall be entitled to
refunds to be computed | ||||||
7 | by the court as additional amounts are
paid by | ||||||
8 | co-defendants.
| ||||||
9 | (d) In instances where a defendant has more than one | ||||||
10 | criminal charge
pending
against him in a single case, or | ||||||
11 | more than one case, and the defendant stands
convicted of | ||||||
12 | one or more charges, a plea agreement negotiated by the | ||||||
13 | State's
Attorney and the defendants may require the | ||||||
14 | defendant to make restitution
to victims of charges that | ||||||
15 | have been dismissed or which it is contemplated
will be | ||||||
16 | dismissed under the terms of the plea agreement, and under | ||||||
17 | the
agreement, the court may impose a sentence of | ||||||
18 | restitution on the charge
or charges of which the defendant | ||||||
19 | has been convicted that would require
the defendant to make | ||||||
20 | restitution to victims of other offenses as provided
in the | ||||||
21 | plea agreement.
| ||||||
22 | (e) The court may require the defendant to apply the | ||||||
23 | balance of the cash
bond, after payment of court costs, and | ||||||
24 | any fine that may be imposed to
the payment of restitution.
| ||||||
25 | (f) Taking into consideration the ability of the | ||||||
26 | defendant to pay, including any real or personal property |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | or any other assets of the defendant,
the court shall | ||||||
2 | determine whether restitution shall be paid in a single
| ||||||
3 | payment or in installments, and shall fix a period of time | ||||||
4 | not in excess
of 5 years or the period of time specified in | ||||||
5 | subsection (f-1), not including periods of incarceration, | ||||||
6 | within which payment of
restitution is to be paid in full.
| ||||||
7 | Complete restitution shall be paid in as short a time | ||||||
8 | period as possible.
However, if the court deems it | ||||||
9 | necessary and in the best interest of the
victim, the court | ||||||
10 | may extend beyond 5 years the period of time within which | ||||||
11 | the
payment of restitution is to be paid.
If the defendant | ||||||
12 | is ordered to pay restitution and the court orders that
| ||||||
13 | restitution is to be paid over a period greater than 6 | ||||||
14 | months, the court
shall order that the defendant make | ||||||
15 | monthly payments; the court may waive
this requirement of | ||||||
16 | monthly payments only if there is a specific finding of
| ||||||
17 | good cause for waiver.
| ||||||
18 | (f-1)(1) In addition to any other penalty prescribed by | ||||||
19 | law and any restitution ordered under this Section that did | ||||||
20 | not include long-term physical health care costs, the court | ||||||
21 | may, upon conviction of any misdemeanor or felony, order a | ||||||
22 | defendant to pay restitution to a victim in accordance with | ||||||
23 | the provisions of this subsection (f-1) if the victim has | ||||||
24 | suffered physical injury as a result of the offense that is | ||||||
25 | reasonably probable to require or has required long-term | ||||||
26 | physical health care for more than 3 months. As used in |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | this subsection (f-1) "long-term physical health care" | ||||||
2 | includes mental health care.
| ||||||
3 | (2) The victim's estimate of long-term physical health | ||||||
4 | care costs may be made as part of a victim impact statement | ||||||
5 | under Section 6 of the Rights of Crime Victims and | ||||||
6 | Witnesses Act or made separately. The court shall enter the | ||||||
7 | long-term physical health care restitution order at the | ||||||
8 | time of sentencing. An order of restitution made under this | ||||||
9 | subsection (f-1) shall fix a monthly amount to be paid by | ||||||
10 | the defendant for as long as long-term physical health care | ||||||
11 | of the victim is required as a result of the offense. The | ||||||
12 | order may exceed the length of any sentence imposed upon | ||||||
13 | the defendant for the criminal activity. The court shall | ||||||
14 | include as a special finding in the judgment of conviction | ||||||
15 | its determination of the monthly cost of long-term physical | ||||||
16 | health care.
| ||||||
17 | (3) After a sentencing order has been entered, the | ||||||
18 | court may from time to time, on the petition of either the | ||||||
19 | defendant or the victim, or upon its own motion, enter an | ||||||
20 | order for restitution for long-term physical care or modify | ||||||
21 | the existing order for restitution for long-term physical | ||||||
22 | care as to the amount of monthly payments. Any modification | ||||||
23 | of the order shall be based only upon a substantial change | ||||||
24 | of circumstances relating to the cost of long-term physical | ||||||
25 | health care or the financial condition of either the | ||||||
26 | defendant or the victim. The petition shall be filed as |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | part of the original criminal docket.
| ||||||
2 | (g) In addition to the sentences provided for in | ||||||
3 | Sections 11-1.20, 11-1.30, 11-1.40, 11-1.50, 11-1.60, | ||||||
4 | 11-19.2, 11-20.1, 11-20.1B, 11-20.3, 12-13,
12-14, | ||||||
5 | 12-14.1, 12-15, and 12-16, 16-1.3, and 17-56, and | ||||||
6 | subdivision (a)(4) of Section 11-14.4, of the Criminal Code | ||||||
7 | of 1961, the court may
order any person who is convicted of | ||||||
8 | violating any of those Sections or who was charged with any | ||||||
9 | of those offenses and which charge was reduced to another | ||||||
10 | charge as a result of a plea agreement under subsection (d) | ||||||
11 | of this Section to meet
all or any portion of the financial | ||||||
12 | obligations of treatment, including but not
limited to | ||||||
13 | medical, psychiatric, or rehabilitative treatment or | ||||||
14 | psychological counseling,
prescribed for the victim or | ||||||
15 | victims of the offense.
| ||||||
16 | The payments shall be made by the defendant to the | ||||||
17 | clerk of the circuit
court
and transmitted by the clerk to | ||||||
18 | the appropriate person or agency as directed by
the court. | ||||||
19 | Except for orders based on violations of Sections 16-1.3 | ||||||
20 | and 17-56 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or as otherwise | ||||||
21 | provided in subsection (f-1), the
order may require such | ||||||
22 | payments to be made for a period not to
exceed 5 years | ||||||
23 | after sentencing, not including periods of incarceration.
| ||||||
24 | (h) The judge may enter an order of withholding to | ||||||
25 | collect the amount
of restitution owed in accordance with | ||||||
26 | Part 8 of Article XII of the Code of
Civil Procedure.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (i) A sentence of restitution may be modified or | ||||||
2 | revoked by the court
if the offender commits another | ||||||
3 | offense, or the offender fails to make
restitution as | ||||||
4 | ordered by the court, but no sentence to make restitution
| ||||||
5 | shall be revoked unless the court shall find that the | ||||||
6 | offender has had the
financial ability to make restitution, | ||||||
7 | and he has wilfully refused to do
so. When the offender's | ||||||
8 | ability to pay restitution was established at the time
an | ||||||
9 | order of restitution was entered or modified, or when the | ||||||
10 | offender's ability
to pay was based on the offender's | ||||||
11 | willingness to make restitution as part of a
plea agreement | ||||||
12 | made at the time the order of restitution was entered or
| ||||||
13 | modified, there is a rebuttable presumption that the facts | ||||||
14 | and circumstances
considered by the court at the hearing at | ||||||
15 | which the order of restitution was
entered or modified | ||||||
16 | regarding the offender's ability or willingness to pay
| ||||||
17 | restitution have not materially changed. If the court shall | ||||||
18 | find that the
defendant has failed to make
restitution and | ||||||
19 | that the failure is not wilful, the court may impose an
| ||||||
20 | additional period of time within which to make restitution. | ||||||
21 | The length of
the additional period shall not be more than | ||||||
22 | 2 years. The court shall
retain all of the incidents of the | ||||||
23 | original sentence, including the
authority to modify or | ||||||
24 | enlarge the conditions, and to revoke or further
modify the | ||||||
25 | sentence if the conditions of payment are violated during | ||||||
26 | the
additional period.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (j) The procedure upon the filing of a Petition to | ||||||
2 | Revoke a sentence to
make restitution shall be the same as | ||||||
3 | the procedures set forth in Section
5-6-4 of this Code | ||||||
4 | governing violation, modification, or revocation of
| ||||||
5 | Probation, of Conditional Discharge, or of Supervision.
| ||||||
6 | (k) Nothing contained in this Section shall preclude | ||||||
7 | the right of any
party to proceed in a civil action to | ||||||
8 | recover for any damages incurred due
to the criminal | ||||||
9 | misconduct of the defendant.
| ||||||
10 | (l) Restitution ordered under this Section shall not be
| ||||||
11 | subject to disbursement by the circuit clerk under Section | ||||||
12 | 27.5 of the
Clerks of Courts Act.
| ||||||
13 | (m) A restitution order under this Section is a | ||||||
14 | judgment lien in favor
of
the victim that:
| ||||||
15 | (1) Attaches to the property of the person subject | ||||||
16 | to the order;
| ||||||
17 | (2) May be perfected in the same manner as provided | ||||||
18 | in Part 3 of Article
9 of the Uniform Commercial Code;
| ||||||
19 | (3) May be enforced to satisfy any payment that is | ||||||
20 | delinquent under the
restitution order by the person in | ||||||
21 | whose favor the order is issued or the
person's | ||||||
22 | assignee; and
| ||||||
23 | (4) Expires in the same manner as a judgment lien | ||||||
24 | created in a civil
proceeding.
| ||||||
25 | When a restitution order is issued under this Section, | ||||||
26 | the issuing court
shall send a certified copy of the order |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | to the clerk of the circuit court
in the county where the | ||||||
2 | charge was filed. Upon receiving the order, the
clerk shall | ||||||
3 | enter and index the order in the circuit court judgment | ||||||
4 | docket.
| ||||||
5 | (n) An order of restitution under this Section does not | ||||||
6 | bar
a civil action for:
| ||||||
7 | (1) Damages that the court did not require the | ||||||
8 | person to pay to the
victim under the restitution order | ||||||
9 | but arise from an injury or property
damages that is | ||||||
10 | the basis of restitution ordered by the court; and
| ||||||
11 | (2) Other damages suffered by the victim.
| ||||||
12 | The restitution order is not discharged by the
completion | ||||||
13 | of the sentence imposed for the offense.
| ||||||
14 | A restitution order under this Section is not discharged by | ||||||
15 | the
liquidation of a person's estate by a receiver. A | ||||||
16 | restitution order under
this Section may be enforced in the | ||||||
17 | same manner as judgment liens are
enforced under Article XII of | ||||||
18 | the Code of Civil Procedure.
| ||||||
19 | The provisions of Section 2-1303 of the Code of Civil | ||||||
20 | Procedure,
providing for interest on judgments, apply to | ||||||
21 | judgments for restitution entered
under this Section.
