3The court may not impose the fee on a minor who is placed in the
4guardianship or custody of the Department of Children and
5Family Services under this Act while the minor is in placement.
6The fee shall be imposed only upon a minor who is actively

25 Sec. 5-710. Kinds of sentencing orders.

HB3178- 21 -LRB101 09496 CPF 54594 b

8 custodian, provided, however, that any such minor who
9 is not committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice

11 delinquent for an offense which is first degree murder,
12 a Class X felony, or a forcible felony shall be placed
13 on probation;

24 the delinquent minor is under 16 years of age or,
25 pursuant to Article II of this Act, a minor for whom an
26 independent basis of abuse, neglect, or dependency

HB3178- 22 -LRB101 09496 CPF 54594 b
1 exists. On and after January 1, 2017, placed in the
2 guardianship of the Department of Children and Family
3 Services, but only if the delinquent minor is under 15
4 years of age or, pursuant to Article II of this Act, a
5 minor for whom an independent basis of abuse, neglect,
6 or dependency exists. An independent basis exists when

8 dependency do not arise from the same facts, incident,
9 or circumstances which give rise to a charge or
10 adjudication of delinquency;
11 (v) placed in detention for a period not to exceed
12 30 days, either as the exclusive order of disposition
13 or, where appropriate, in conjunction with any other
14 order of disposition issued under this paragraph,
15 provided that any such detention shall be in a juvenile
16 detention home and the minor so detained shall be 10
17 years of age or older. However, the 30-day limitation
18 may be extended by further order of the court for a
19 minor under age 15 committed to the Department of

21 the minor is a danger to himself or others. The minor

1 order of detention entered under a violation of
2 probation or violation of conditional discharge under
3 Section 5-720 of this Article for time spent in

10 juvenile detention home does not apply as follows:
11 Persons 18 years of age and older who have a
12 petition of delinquency filed against them may be
13 confined in an adult detention facility. In making a
14 determination whether to confine a person 18 years of
15 age or older who has a petition of delinquency filed
16 against the person, these factors, among other
17 matters, shall be considered:
18 (A) the age of the person;

20 history of the person;
21 (C) any previous abuse or neglect history of
22 the person;
23 (D) any mental health history of the person;
24 and

20 (b) A minor found to be guilty may be committed to the
21 Department of Juvenile Justice under Section 5-750 if the
22 minor is at least 13 years and under 20 years of age,
23 provided that the commitment to the Department of Juvenile
24 Justice shall be made only if the minor was found guilty of
25 a felony offense or first degree murder. The court shall
26 include in the sentencing order any pre-custody credits the

HB3178- 25 -LRB101 09496 CPF 54594 b
1 minor is entitled to under Section 5-4.5-100 of the Unified
2 Code of Corrections. The time during which a minor is in
3 custody before being released upon the request of a parent,
4 guardian or legal custodian shall also be considered as
5 time spent in custody.
6 (c) When a minor is found to be guilty for an offense
7 which is a violation of the Illinois Controlled Substances
8 Act, the Cannabis Control Act, or the Methamphetamine
9 Control and Community Protection Act and made a ward of the
10 court, the court may enter a disposition order requiring

15Department of Juvenile Justice may provide for protective
16supervision under Section 5-725 and may include an order of
17protection under Section 5-730.
18 (3) Unless the sentencing order expressly so provides, it
19does not operate to close proceedings on the pending petition,
20but is subject to modification until final closing and
21discharge of the proceedings under Section 5-750.
22 (4) In addition to any other sentence, the court may order
23any minor found to be delinquent to make restitution, in
24monetary or non-monetary form, under the terms and conditions
25of Section 5-5-6 of the Unified Code of Corrections, except
26that the "presentencing hearing" referred to in that Section

HB3178- 26 -LRB101 09496 CPF 54594 b

2The parent, guardian or legal custodian of the minor may be
3ordered by the court to pay some or all of the restitution on
4the minor's behalf, pursuant to the Parental Responsibility
5Law. The State's Attorney is authorized to act on behalf of any
6victim in seeking restitution in proceedings under this
7Section, up to the maximum amount allowed in Section 5 of the
8Parental Responsibility Law.
9 (5) Any sentencing order where the minor is committed or
10placed in accordance with Section 5-740 shall provide for the
11parents or guardian of the estate of the minor to pay to the
12legal custodian or guardian of the person of the minor such
13sums as are determined by the custodian or guardian of the
14person of the minor as necessary for the minor's needs. The
15payments may not exceed the maximum amounts provided for by
16Section 9.1 of the Children and Family Services Act.

18attend school or participate in a program of training, the
19truant officer or designated school official shall regularly
20report to the court if the minor is a chronic or habitual
21truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code. Notwithstanding
22any other provision of this Act, in instances in which
23educational services are to be provided to a minor in a
24residential facility where the minor has been placed by the
25court, costs incurred in the provision of those educational
26services must be allocated based on the requirements of the

HB3178- 27 -LRB101 09496 CPF 54594 b

20 Section 45. The Smokeless Tobacco Limitation Act is
21repealed.
22 Section 50. The Tobacco Accessories and Smoking Herbs
23Control Act is amended by changing Sections 2 and 4 as follows:

HB3178- 60 -LRB101 09496 CPF 54594 b
1 (720 ILCS 685/2) (from Ch. 23, par. 2358-2)
2 Sec. 2. Purpose. The sale and possession of marijuana,
3hashish, cocaine, opium and their derivatives, is not only
4prohibited by Illinois Law, but the use of these substances has
5been deemed injurious to the health of the user.
6 It has further been determined by the Surgeon General of
7the United States that the use of tobacco is hazardous to human
8health.
9 The ready availability of smoking herbs to persons under 21
10years of age minors could lead to the use of tobacco and
11illegal drugs.
12 It is in the best interests of the citizens of the State of
13Illinois to seek to prohibit the spread of illegal drugs,
14tobacco or smoking materials to persons under 21 years of age
15minors. The prohibition of the sale of tobacco and snuff
16accessories and smoking herbs to persons under 21 years of age
17minors would help to curb the usage of illegal drugs and
18tobacco products, among our youth.
