assets, that the defendant is financially capable of
paying |
for such services, if the victim was under 18 years of age |
at the
time the offense was committed and requires |
counseling as a result of the
offense.
|
Probation may be revoked or modified pursuant to Section |
5-6-4; except
where the court determines at the hearing that |
the defendant violated a
condition of his or her probation |
restricting contact with the victim or
other family members or |
|
commits another offense with the victim or other
family |
members, the court shall revoke the defendant's probation and
|
impose a term of imprisonment.
|

discretion to determine to
whom, if anyone, the results of the |
testing may be revealed. The court shall
notify the defendant |
of a positive test showing an infection with the human
|
immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The court shall provide |

12-16 of the
Criminal Code of 1961, any violation of |
the Illinois Controlled Substances Act,
any violation of the |

Control and Community Protection Act results in conviction, a
|
disposition of court supervision, or an order of probation |
granted under
Section 10 of the Cannabis Control Act, Section |
|
410 of the Illinois
Controlled Substance Act, or Section 70 of |
the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act of a |
defendant, the court shall determine whether the
defendant is |
employed by a facility or center as defined under the Child |
Care
Act of 1969, a public or private elementary or secondary |
school, or otherwise
works with children under 18 years of age |
on a daily basis. When a defendant
is so employed, the court |
shall order the Clerk of the Court to send a copy of
the |
judgment of conviction or order of supervision or probation to |
the
defendant's employer by certified mail.
If the employer of |
the defendant is a school, the Clerk of the Court shall
direct |

(j-5) A defendant at least 17 years of age who is convicted |
of a felony and
who has not been previously convicted of a |
misdemeanor or felony and who is
sentenced to a term of |
imprisonment in the Illinois Department of Corrections
shall as |
a condition of his or her sentence be required by the court to |
attend
educational courses designed to prepare the defendant |
for a high school diploma
and to work toward a high school |
diploma or to work toward passing the high
school level Test of |
General Educational Development (GED) or to work toward
|
completing a vocational training program offered by the |
|
Department of
Corrections. If a defendant fails to complete the |
educational training
required by his or her sentence during the |
term of incarceration, the Prisoner
Review Board shall, as a |
condition of mandatory supervised release, require the
|
defendant, at his or her own expense, to pursue a course of |
study toward a high
school diploma or passage of the GED test. |
The Prisoner Review Board shall
revoke the mandatory supervised |
release of a defendant who wilfully fails to
comply with this |
subsection (j-5) upon his or her release from confinement in a
|
penal institution while serving a mandatory supervised release |
term; however,
the inability of the defendant after making a |
good faith effort to obtain
financial aid or pay for the |
educational training shall not be deemed a wilful
failure to |
comply. The Prisoner Review Board shall recommit the defendant
|
whose mandatory supervised release term has been revoked under |
this subsection
(j-5) as provided in Section 3-3-9. This |
subsection (j-5) does not apply to a
defendant who has a high |
school diploma or has successfully passed the GED
test. This |
subsection (j-5) does not apply to a defendant who is |
determined by
the court to be developmentally disabled or |
otherwise mentally incapable of
completing the educational or |
vocational program.

the defendant
may, upon motion of the State's Attorney, |
hold sentence in abeyance and remand
the defendant to the |
custody of the Attorney General of
the United States or his |
or her designated agent to be deported when:
|
(1) a final order of deportation has been issued |
against the defendant
pursuant to proceedings under |
the Immigration and Nationality Act, and
|
(2) the deportation of the defendant would not |
deprecate the seriousness
of the defendant's conduct |
and would not be inconsistent with the ends of
justice.
|
Otherwise, the defendant shall be sentenced as |
provided in this Chapter V.
|
(B) If the defendant has already been sentenced for a |
felony or
misdemeanor
offense, or has been placed on |

Protection Act, the court
may, upon motion of the State's |
Attorney to suspend the
sentence imposed, commit the |
defendant to the custody of the Attorney General
of the |
United States or his or her designated agent when:
|
(1) a final order of deportation has been issued |
against the defendant
pursuant to proceedings under |
the Immigration and Nationality Act, and
|
(2) the deportation of the defendant would not |
|
deprecate the seriousness
of the defendant's conduct |
and would not be inconsistent with the ends of
justice.
|
(C) This subsection (l) does not apply to offenders who |
are subject to the
provisions of paragraph (2) of |
subsection (a) of Section 3-6-3.
|
(D) Upon motion of the State's Attorney, if a defendant |
sentenced under
this Section returns to the jurisdiction of |
the United States, the defendant
shall be recommitted to |
the custody of the county from which he or she was
|
sentenced.
Thereafter, the defendant shall be brought |
before the sentencing court, which
may impose any sentence |
that was available under Section 5-5-3 at the time of
|
initial sentencing. In addition, the defendant shall not be |
eligible for
additional good conduct credit for |
meritorious service as provided under
Section 3-6-6.

community service |
that may include cleanup, removal, or painting over the
|
defacement.
|
(n) The court may sentence a person convicted of a |
violation of Section
12-19, 12-21, 16-1.3, or 17-56, or |
subsection (a) or (b) of Section 12-4.4a, of the Criminal Code |
of 1961 (i) to an impact
incarceration program if the person is |
otherwise eligible for that program
under Section 5-8-1.1, (ii) |
|
