discharge.
(a) The conditions of probation and of conditional
discharge shall be that the person:

jurisdiction;
(2) report to or appear in person before such person
or agency as directed by the court. To comply with the
provisions of this paragraph (2), in lieu of requiring the
person on probation or conditional discharge to appear in

for communication between the supervised person and the
officer in accordance with standards and guidelines
established by the Administrative Office of the Illinois
Courts;

dangerous weapon where the offense is a felony or, if a
misdemeanor, the offense involved the intentional or
knowing infliction of bodily harm or threat of bodily
harm;
(4) not leave the State without the consent of the
court or, in circumstances in which the reason for the
absence is of such an emergency nature that prior consent
by the court is not possible, without the prior

officer. Transfer of a person's probation or conditional
discharge supervision to another state is subject to
acceptance by the other state pursuant to the Interstate
Compact for Adult Offender Supervision;
(5) permit the probation officer to visit him at his
home or elsewhere to the extent necessary to discharge his

furtherance of the criminal activities of an organized
gang and was motivated by the offender's membership in or
allegiance to an organized gang. The community service

21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of
2012 and similar damage to property located within the

the fulfillment of community service hours for
participation in activities and treatment as determined by
court services;

of a person who willfully fails to comply with this
paragraph (7). The person on probation or conditional
discharge shall be required to pay for the cost of the
educational courses or high school equivalency testing if

course of the minor's lawful employment.
(d) An offender sentenced to probation or to conditional
discharge shall be given a certificate setting forth the
conditions thereof.
(e) Except where the offender has committed a fourth or
subsequent violation of subsection (c) of Section 6-303 of the
Illinois Vehicle Code, the court shall not require as a
condition of the sentence of probation or conditional
discharge that the offender be committed to a period of
imprisonment in excess of 6 months. This 6-month limit shall

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

(g) An offender sentenced to probation or to conditional
discharge and who during the term of either undergoes
mandatory drug or alcohol testing, or both, or is assigned to
be placed on an approved electronic monitoring device, shall
be ordered to pay all costs incidental to such mandatory drug
or alcohol testing, or both, and all costs incidental to such
approved electronic monitoring in accordance with the
defendant's ability to pay those costs. The county board with
the concurrence of the Chief Judge of the judicial circuit in
which the county is located shall establish reasonable fees
for the cost of maintenance, testing, and incidental expenses
related to the mandatory drug or alcohol testing, or both, and
all costs incidental to approved electronic monitoring,
involved in a successful probation program for the county. The
concurrence of the Chief Judge shall be in the form of an
administrative order. The fees shall be collected by the clerk
of the circuit court, except as provided in an administrative
order of the Chief Judge of the circuit court. The clerk of the
circuit court shall pay all moneys collected from these fees
to the county treasurer who shall use the moneys collected to
defray the costs of drug testing, alcohol testing, and
electronic monitoring. The county treasurer shall deposit the
fees collected in the county working cash fund under Section
6-27001 or Section 6-29002 of the Counties Code, as the case
may be. The Chief Judge of the circuit court of the county may
by administrative order establish a program for electronic
monitoring of offenders, in which a vendor supplies and
monitors the operation of the electronic monitoring device,
and collects the fees on behalf of the county. The program
shall include provisions for indigent offenders and the
collection of unpaid fees. The program shall not unduly burden
the offender and shall be subject to review by the Chief Judge.
The Chief Judge of the circuit court may suspend any
additional charges or fees for late payment, interest, or
damage to any device.
(h) Jurisdiction over an offender may be transferred from
the sentencing court to the court of another circuit with the
concurrence of both courts. Further transfers or retransfers
of jurisdiction are also authorized in the same manner. The
court to which jurisdiction has been transferred shall have
the same powers as the sentencing court. The probation
department within the circuit to which jurisdiction has been
transferred, or which has agreed to provide supervision, may
impose probation fees upon receiving the transferred offender,
as provided in subsection (i). For all transfer cases, as
defined in Section 9b of the Probation and Probation Officers
Act, the probation department from the original sentencing
court shall retain all probation fees collected prior to the
transfer. After the transfer, all probation fees shall be paid
to the probation department within the circuit to which
jurisdiction has been transferred.
(i) The court shall impose upon an offender sentenced to
probation after January 1, 1989 or to conditional discharge
after January 1, 1992 or to community service under the
supervision of a probation or court services department after
January 1, 2004, as a condition of such probation or
conditional discharge or supervised community service, a fee
of $50 for each month of probation or conditional discharge
supervision or supervised community service ordered by the
court, unless after determining the inability of the person
sentenced to probation or conditional discharge or supervised
community service to pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser
fee. The court may not impose the fee on a minor who is placed
in the guardianship or custody of the Department of Children
and Family Services under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 while
the minor is in placement. The fee shall be imposed only upon
an offender who is actively supervised by the probation and
court services department. The fee shall be collected by the
clerk of the circuit court. The clerk of the circuit court
shall pay all monies collected from this fee to the county
treasurer for deposit in the probation and court services fund
under Section 15.1 of the Probation and Probation Officers
Act.
A circuit court may not impose a probation fee under this
subsection (i) in excess of $25 per month unless the circuit
court has adopted, by administrative order issued by the chief
judge, a standard probation fee guide determining an
offender's ability to pay. Of the amount collected as a
probation fee, up to $5 of that fee collected per month may be
used to provide services to crime victims and their families.
The Court may only waive probation fees based on an
offender's ability to pay. The probation department may
re-evaluate an offender's ability to pay every 6 months, and,
with the approval of the Director of Court Services or the
Chief Probation Officer, adjust the monthly fee amount. An
offender may elect to pay probation fees due in a lump sum. Any
offender that has been assigned to the supervision of a
probation department, or has been transferred either under
subsection (h) of this Section or under any interstate
compact, shall be required to pay probation fees to the
department supervising the offender, based on the offender's
ability to pay.
Public Act 93-970 deletes the $10 increase in the fee
under this subsection that was imposed by Public Act 93-616.
This deletion is intended to control over any other Act of the
93rd General Assembly that retains or incorporates that fee
increase.
(i-5) In addition to the fees imposed under subsection (i)
of this Section, in the case of an offender convicted of a
felony sex offense (as defined in the Sex Offender Management
Board Act) or an offense that the court or probation
department has determined to be sexually motivated (as defined
in the Sex Offender Management Board Act), the court or the
probation department shall assess additional fees to pay for
all costs of treatment, assessment, evaluation for risk and
treatment, and monitoring the offender, based on that
offender's ability to pay those costs either as they occur or
under a payment plan.
(j) All fines and costs imposed under this Section for any
violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois Vehicle
Code, or a similar provision of a local ordinance, and any
violation of the Child Passenger Protection Act, or a similar
provision of a local ordinance, shall be collected and
disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under the Criminal
and Traffic Assessment Act.
(k) Any offender who is sentenced to probation or
conditional discharge for a felony sex offense as defined in
the Sex Offender Management Board Act or any offense that the
court or probation department has determined to be sexually
motivated as defined in the Sex Offender Management Board Act
shall be required to refrain from any contact, directly or
indirectly, with any persons specified by the court and shall
be available for all evaluations and treatment programs
required by the court or the probation department.
(l) The court may order an offender who is sentenced to
probation or conditional discharge for a violation of an order
of protection be placed under electronic surveillance as
provided in Section 5-8A-7 of this Code.

reduction in recidivism rates and the successful local
reintegration of offenders. The purpose of this Section is to
ensure that State and local agencies direct their resources to
services and programming that have been demonstrated to be
effective in reducing recidivism and reintegrating offenders
into the locality.

being supervised in accordance with evidence-based
practices; within 3 years of the adoption, validation, and
utilization of the statewide, standardized risk assessment
tool result in at least 50% of supervised individuals
being supervised in accordance with evidence-based
practices; and within 5 years of the adoption, validation,
and utilization of the statewide, standardized risk
assessment tool result in at least 75% of supervised

record; and the number and severity of any
previous supervision violations.
(iv) The system shall also define positive
reinforcements that supervised individuals may
receive for compliance with conditions of
supervision.
