1 AN ACT in relation to minors.
2 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:
4 Section 5. The Juvenile Court Act of 1987 is amended by
5 changing Section 5-130 as follows:
6 (705 ILCS 405/5-130)
7 Sec. 5-130. Excluded jurisdiction.
8 (1) (a) The definition of delinquent minor under Section
9 5-120 of this Article shall not apply to any minor who at the
10 time of an offense was at least 15 years of age and who is
11 charged with first degree murder, aggravated criminal sexual
12 assault, aggravated battery with a firearm committed in a
13 school, on the real property comprising a school, within
14 1,000 feet of the real property comprising a school, at a
15 school related activity, or on, boarding, or departing from
16 any conveyance owned, leased, or contracted by a school or
17 school district to transport students to or from school or a
18 school related activity regardless of the time of day or time
19 of year that the offense was committed, armed robbery when
20 the armed robbery was committed with a firearm, or aggravated
21 vehicular hijacking when the hijacking was committed with a
22 firearm.
23 These charges and all other charges arising out of the
24 same incident shall be prosecuted under the criminal laws of
25 this State.
26 For purposes of this paragraph (a) of subsection (l):
27 "School" means a public or private elementary or
28 secondary school, community college, college, or university.
29 "School related activity" means any sporting, social,
30 academic or other activity for which students' attendance or
31 participation is sponsored, organized, or funded in whole or
-2- LRB9206563RCcd
1 in part by a school or school district.
2 (b) (i) If before trial or plea an information or
3 indictment is filed that does not charge an offense specified
4 in paragraph (a) of this subsection (1) the State's Attorney
5 may proceed on any lesser charge or charges, but only in
6 Juvenile Court under the provisions of this Article. The
7 State's Attorney may proceed under the Criminal Code of 1961
8 on a lesser charge if before trial the minor defendant
9 knowingly and with advice of counsel waives, in writing, his
10 or her right to have the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
11 (ii) If before trial or plea an information or
12 indictment is filed that includes one or more charges
13 specified in paragraph (a) of this subsection (1) and
14 additional charges that are not specified in that paragraph,
15 all of the charges arising out of the same incident shall be
16 prosecuted under the Criminal Code of 1961.
17 (c) (i) If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of
18 any offense covered by paragraph (a) of this subsection (1),
19 then, in sentencing the minor, the court shall have available
20 any or all dispositions prescribed for that offense under
21 Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
22 (ii) If after trial or plea the court finds that the
23 minor committed an offense not covered by paragraph (a) of
24 this subsection (1), that finding shall not invalidate the
25 verdict or the prosecution of the minor under the criminal
26 laws of the State; however, unless the State requests a
27 hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
28 V of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
29 under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article. To request a
30 hearing, the State must file a written motion within 10 days
31 following the entry of a finding or the return of a verdict.
32 Reasonable notice of the motion shall be given to the minor
33 or his or her counsel. If the motion is made by the State,
34 the court shall conduct a hearing to determine if the minor
-3- LRB9206563RCcd
1 should be sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of
2 Corrections. In making its determination, the court shall
3 consider among other matters: (a) whether there is evidence
4 that the offense was committed in an aggressive and
5 premeditated manner; (b) the age of the minor; (c) the
6 previous history of the minor; (d) whether there are
7 facilities particularly available to the Juvenile Court or
8 the Department of Corrections, Juvenile Division, for the
9 treatment and rehabilitation of the minor; (e) whether the
10 security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
11 the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f) whether the minor
12 possessed a deadly weapon when committing the offense. The
13 rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial. If after
14 the hearing the court finds that the minor should be
15 sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
16 then the court shall sentence the minor accordingly having
17 available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
18 (2) (Blank). (a) The definition of a delinquent minor
19 under Section 5-120 of this Article shall not apply to any

22 the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, while in a school,
23 regardless of the time of day or the time of year, or any
24 conveyance owned, leased or contracted by a school to
25 transport students to or from school or a school related
26 activity, or residential property owned, operated or managed
27 by a public housing agency or leased by a public housing
28 agency as part of a scattered site or mixed-income

24 finds that the minor committed an offense other than first
25 degree murder committed during the course of either
26 aggravated criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual assault,
27 or aggravated kidnapping, the finding shall not invalidate
28 the verdict or the prosecution of the minor under the
29 criminal laws of the State; however, unless the State
30 requests a hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor
31 under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court
32 must proceed under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article.

13 (e) whether the best interest of the minor and the security
14 of the public require sentencing under Chapter V of the
15 Unified Code of Corrections; and (f) whether the minor
16 possessed a deadly weapon when committing the offense. The
17 rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial. If after
18 the hearing the court finds that the minor should be

20 then the court shall sentence the minor accordingly having
21 available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
22 (5) (a) The definition of delinquent minor under Section
23 5-120 of this Article shall not apply to any minor who is
24 charged with a violation of subsection (a) of Section 31-6 or
25 Section 32-10 of the Criminal Code of 1961 when the minor is
26 subject to prosecution under the criminal laws of this State
27 as a result of the application of the provisions of Section

1 may proceed on any lesser charge or charges, but only in
2 Juvenile Court under the provisions of this Article. The

12 prosecuted under the criminal laws of this State.
13 (c) (i) If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of
14 any offense covered by paragraph (a) of this subsection (5),
15 then, in sentencing the minor, the court shall have available
16 any or all dispositions prescribed for that offense under
17 Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
18 (ii) If after trial or plea the court finds that the
19 minor committed an offense not covered by paragraph (a) of
20 this subsection (5), the conviction shall not invalidate the
21 verdict or the prosecution of the minor under the criminal
22 laws of this State; however, unless the State requests a
23 hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
24 V of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
25 under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article. To request a
26 hearing, the State must file a written motion within 10 days
27 following the entry of a finding or the return of a verdict.
28 Reasonable notice of the motion shall be given to the minor
29 or his or her counsel. If the motion is made by the State,

-11- LRB9206563RCcd
1 premeditated manner; (b) the age of the minor; (c) the
2 previous delinquent history of the minor; (d) whether there

6 security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
7 the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f) whether the minor
8 possessed a deadly weapon when committing the offense. The
9 rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial. If after
10 the hearing the court finds that the minor should be
11 sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
12 then the court shall sentence the minor accordingly having
13 available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
14 (6) The definition of delinquent minor under Section
15 5-120 of this Article shall not apply to any minor who,
16 pursuant to subsection (1), (2), or (3) or Section 5-805, or
17 5-810, has previously been placed under the jurisdiction of
18 the criminal court and has been convicted of a crime under an
19 adult criminal or penal statute. Such a minor shall be
20 subject to prosecution under the criminal laws of this State.
21 (7) The procedures set out in this Article for the
22 investigation, arrest and prosecution of juvenile offenders
23 shall not apply to minors who are excluded from jurisdiction
24 of the Juvenile Court, except that minors under 17 years of
25 age shall be kept separate from confined adults.
26 (8) Nothing in this Act prohibits or limits the
27 prosecution of any minor for an offense committed on or after
28 his or her 17th birthday even though he or she is at the time
29 of the offense a ward of the court.
30 (9) If an original petition for adjudication of wardship
31 alleges the commission by a minor 13 years of age or over of
32 an act that constitutes a crime under the laws of this State,
33 the minor, with the consent of his or her counsel, may, at
34 any time before commencement of the adjudicatory hearing,
-12- LRB9206563RCcd
1 file with the court a motion that criminal prosecution be
2 ordered and that the petition be dismissed insofar as the act
3 or acts involved in the criminal proceedings are concerned.
4 If such a motion is filed as herein provided, the court shall
5 enter its order accordingly.
