3 (b-15) and (b-20) of this Section, and no action shall lie

4 against them for such suspension. The board may by policy

5 authorize the superintendent of the district or the principal,

8 10 school days. If a pupil is suspended due to gross

9 disobedience or misconduct on a school bus, the board may

10 suspend the pupil in excess of 10 school days for safety

11 reasons.

12 Any suspension shall be reported immediately to the

13 parents or guardian of a pupil along with a full statement of

14 the reasons for such suspension and a notice of their right to

15 a review. The school board must be given a summary of the

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 appropriate. If a student is suspended pursuant to this

2 subsection (b), the board shall, in the written suspension

3 decision, detail the specific act of gross disobedience or

4 misconduct resulting in the decision to suspend. The

5 suspension decision shall also include a rationale as to the

6 specific duration of the suspension. A pupil who is suspended

7 in excess of 20 school days may be immediately transferred to

8 an alternative program in the manner provided in Article 13A

9 or 13B of this Code. A pupil must not be denied transfer

10 because of the suspension, except in cases in which such

11 transfer is deemed to cause a threat to the safety of students

12 or staff in the alternative program.

13 (b-5) Among the many possible disciplinary interventions

14 and consequences available to school officials, school

15 exclusions, such as out-of-school suspensions and expulsions,

16 are the most serious. School officials shall limit the number

17 and duration of expulsions and suspensions to the greatest

18 extent practicable, and it is recommended that they use them

19 only for legitimate educational purposes. To ensure that

15 household members as defined in Article 112A, including

21 the conditions of the bail bond shall be that he will, in

22 addition to the conditions set forth in subsections (a) and

14 other interested party that shall be enforced while the

15 defendant remains in custody.

2 serve on the defendant and file with the court a notice

3 alleging that conviction of the offense would subject the

4 defendant to the prohibitions of 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(9) because

5 of the relationship between the defendant and the alleged

6 victim and the nature of the alleged offense.

7 (b) The notice shall include the name of the person

8 alleged to be the victim of the crime and shall specify the

9 nature of the alleged relationship as set forth in 18 U.S.C.

10 921(a)(33)(A)(ii). It shall also specify the element of the

11 charged offense which requires the use or attempted use of

12 physical force, or the threatened use of a deadly weapon, as

13 set forth 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(33)(A)(ii). It shall also include

14 notice that the defendant is entitled to a hearing on the

15 allegation contained in the notice and that if the allegation

8 remedies.

9 (a) (Blank).

10 (b) The court may order any of the remedies listed in this

11 subsection (b). The remedies listed in this subsection (b)

12 shall be in addition to other civil or criminal remedies

13 available to petitioner.

14 (1) Prohibition of abuse. Prohibit respondent's

15 harassment, interference with personal liberty,

16 intimidation of a dependent, physical abuse, or willful

17 deprivation, as defined in this Article, if such abuse has

18 occurred or otherwise appears likely to occur if not

19 prohibited.

20 (2) Grant of exclusive possession of residence.

21 Prohibit respondent from entering or remaining in any

22 residence, household, or premises of the petitioner,

23 including one owned or leased by respondent, if petitioner

24 has a right to occupancy thereof. The grant of exclusive

25 possession of the residence, household, or premises shall

SB1948

- 207 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 not affect title to real property, nor shall the court be

2 limited by the standard set forth in subsection (c-2) of

3 Section 501 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of

4 Marriage Act.

5 (A) Right to occupancy. A party has a right to

6 occupancy of a residence or household if it is solely

7 or jointly owned or leased by that party, that party's

8 spouse, a person with a legal duty to support that

9 party or a minor child in that party's care, or by any

10 person or entity other than the opposing party that

11 authorizes that party's occupancy (e.g., a domestic

12 violence shelter). Standards set forth in subparagraph

13 (B) shall not preclude equitable relief.

14 (B) Presumption of hardships. If petitioner and

15 respondent each has the right to occupancy of a

16 residence or household, the court shall balance (i)

17 the hardships to respondent and any minor child or

18 dependent adult in respondent's care resulting from

19 entry of this remedy with (ii) the hardships to

20 petitioner and any minor child or dependent adult in

21 petitioner's care resulting from continued exposure to

22 the risk of abuse (should petitioner remain at the

23 residence or household) or from loss of possession of

24 the residence or household (should petitioner leave to

25 avoid the risk of abuse). When determining the balance

26 of hardships, the court shall also take into account

SB1948

- 208 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 the accessibility of the residence or household.

2 Hardships need not be balanced if respondent does not

3 have a right to occupancy.

4 The balance of hardships is presumed to favor

5 possession by petitioner unless the presumption is

6 rebutted by a preponderance of the evidence, showing

7 that the hardships to respondent substantially

8 outweigh the hardships to petitioner and any minor

9 child or dependent adult in petitioner's care. The

10 court, on the request of petitioner or on its own

11 motion, may order respondent to provide suitable,

12 accessible, alternate housing for petitioner instead

13 of excluding respondent from a mutual residence or

14 household.

15 (3) Stay away order and additional prohibitions. Order

16 respondent to stay away from petitioner or any other

17 person protected by the domestic violence order of

18 protection, or prohibit respondent from entering or

19 remaining present at petitioner's school, place of

20 employment, or other specified places at times when

21 petitioner is present, or both, if reasonable, given the

22 balance of hardships. Hardships need not be balanced for

23 the court to enter a stay away order or prohibit entry if

24 respondent has no right to enter the premises.

25 (A) If a domestic violence order of protection

26 grants petitioner exclusive possession of the

SB1948

- 209 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 residence, prohibits respondent from entering the

2 residence, or orders respondent to stay away from

3 petitioner or other protected persons, then the court

4 may allow respondent access to the residence to remove

5 items of clothing and personal adornment used

6 exclusively by respondent, medications, and other

7 items as the court directs. The right to access shall

8 be exercised on only one occasion as the court directs

9 and in the presence of an agreed-upon adult third

10 party or law enforcement officer.

11 (B) When the petitioner and the respondent attend

12 the same public, private, or non-public elementary,

13 middle, or high school, the court when issuing a

14 domestic violence order of protection and providing

15 relief shall consider the severity of the act, any

16 continuing physical danger or emotional distress to

17 the petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to

18 the petitioner and respondent under federal and State

19 law, the availability of a transfer of the respondent

20 to another school, a change of placement or a change of

21 program of the respondent, the expense, difficulty,

22 and educational disruption that would be caused by a

23 transfer of the respondent to another school, and any

24 other relevant facts of the case. The court may order

25 that the respondent not attend the public, private, or

26 non-public elementary, middle, or high school attended

SB1948

- 210 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 by the petitioner, order that the respondent accept a

2 change of placement or change of program, as

3 determined by the school district or private or

4 non-public school, or place restrictions on the

5 respondent's movements within the school attended by

6 the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of

7 proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a

8 transfer, change of placement, or change of program of

9 the respondent is not available. The respondent also

10 bears the burden of production with respect to the

11 expense, difficulty, and educational disruption that

12 would be caused by a transfer of the respondent to

13 another school. A transfer, change of placement, or

14 change of program is not unavailable to the respondent

15 solely on the ground that the respondent does not

16 agree with the school district's or private or

17 non-public school's transfer, change of placement, or

18 change of program or solely on the ground that the

19 respondent fails or refuses to consent or otherwise

20 does not take an action required to effectuate a

21 transfer, change of placement, or change of program.

22 When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the

23 public, private, or non-public school attended by the

24 petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to

25 another attendance center within the respondent's

26 school district or private or non-public school, the

SB1948

- 211 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 school district or private or non-public school shall

2 have sole discretion to determine the attendance

3 center to which the respondent is transferred. If the

4 court order results in a transfer of the minor

5 respondent to another attendance center, a change in

6 the respondent's placement, or a change of the

7 respondent's program, the parents, guardian, or legal

8 custodian of the respondent is responsible for

9 transportation and other costs associated with the

10 transfer or change.

11 (C) The court may order the parents, guardian, or

12 legal custodian of a minor respondent to take certain

13 actions or to refrain from taking certain actions to

14 ensure that the respondent complies with the order. If

15 the court orders a transfer of the respondent to

16 another school, the parents, guardian, or legal

17 custodian of the respondent is responsible for

18 transportation and other costs associated with the

19 change of school by the respondent.

20 (4) Counseling. Require or recommend the respondent to

21 undergo counseling for a specified duration with a social

22 worker, psychologist, clinical psychologist,

23 psychiatrist, family service agency, alcohol or substance

24 abuse program, mental health center guidance counselor,

25 agency providing services to elders, program designed for

26 domestic violence abusers, or any other guidance service

SB1948

- 212 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 the court deems appropriate. The court may order the

2 respondent in any intimate partner relationship to report

3 to an Illinois Department of Human Services protocol

4 approved partner abuse intervention program for an

5 assessment and to follow all recommended treatment.

6 (5) Physical care and possession of the minor child.

7 In order to protect the minor child from abuse, neglect,

8 or unwarranted separation from the person who has been the

9 minor child's primary caretaker, or to otherwise protect

10 the well-being of the minor child, the court may do either

11 or both of the following: (i) grant petitioner physical

12 care or possession of the minor child, or both, or (ii)

13 order respondent to return a minor child to, or not remove

14 a minor child from, the physical care of a parent or person

15 in loco parentis.

16 If the respondent is charged with abuse (as defined in

17 Section 112A-3 of this Code) of a minor child, there shall

18 be a rebuttable presumption that awarding physical care to

19 respondent would not be in the minor child's best

20 interest.

21 (6) Temporary allocation of parental responsibilities

22 and significant decision-making responsibilities. Award

23 temporary significant decision-making responsibility to

24 petitioner in accordance with this Section, the Illinois

25 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, the Illinois

26 Parentage Act of 2015, and this State's Uniform

SB1948

- 213 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 Child-Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act.

2 If the respondent is charged with abuse (as defined in

3 Section 112A-3 of this Code) of a minor child, there shall

4 be a rebuttable presumption that awarding temporary

5 significant decision-making responsibility to respondent

6 would not be in the child's best interest.

7 (7) Parenting time. Determine the parenting time, if

8 any, of respondent in any case in which the court awards

9 physical care or temporary significant decision-making

10 responsibility of a minor child to petitioner. The court

11 shall restrict or deny respondent's parenting time with a

12 minor child if the court finds that respondent has done or

13 is likely to do any of the following:

14 (i) abuse or endanger the minor child during

15 parenting time;

16 (ii) use the parenting time as an opportunity to

17 abuse or harass petitioner or petitioner's family or

18 household members;

19 (iii) improperly conceal or detain the minor

20 child; or

21 (iv) otherwise act in a manner that is not in the

22 best interests of the minor child.

23 The court shall not be limited by the standards set

24 forth in Section 603.10 of the Illinois Marriage and

25 Dissolution of Marriage Act. If the court grants parenting

26 time, the order shall specify dates and times for the

SB1948

- 214 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 parenting time to take place or other specific parameters

2 or conditions that are appropriate. No order for parenting

3 time shall refer merely to the term "reasonable parenting

4 time". Petitioner may deny respondent access to the minor

5 child if, when respondent arrives for parenting time,

6 respondent is under the influence of drugs or alcohol and

7 constitutes a threat to the safety and well-being of

8 petitioner or petitioner's minor children or is behaving

9 in a violent or abusive manner. If necessary to protect

10 any member of petitioner's family or household from future

11 abuse, respondent shall be prohibited from coming to

12 petitioner's residence to meet the minor child for

13 parenting time, and the petitioner and respondent shall

14 submit to the court their recommendations for reasonable

15 alternative arrangements for parenting time. A person may

16 be approved to supervise parenting time only after filing

17 an affidavit accepting that responsibility and

18 acknowledging accountability to the court.

19 (8) Removal or concealment of minor child. Prohibit

20 respondent from removing a minor child from the State or

21 concealing the child within the State.

22 (9) Order to appear. Order the respondent to appear in

23 court, alone or with a minor child, to prevent abuse,

24 neglect, removal or concealment of the child, to return

25 the child to the custody or care of the petitioner, or to

26 permit any court-ordered interview or examination of the

SB1948

- 215 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 child or the respondent.

2 (10) Possession of personal property. Grant petitioner

3 exclusive possession of personal property and, if

4 respondent has possession or control, direct respondent to

5 promptly make it available to petitioner, if:

6 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the

7 property; or

8 (ii) the petitioner and respondent own the

9 property jointly; sharing it would risk abuse of

10 petitioner by respondent or is impracticable; and the

11 balance of hardships favors temporary possession by

12 petitioner.

13 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the

14 property is that it is marital property, the court may

15 award petitioner temporary possession thereof under the

16 standards of subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph only if a

17 proper proceeding has been filed under the Illinois

18 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as now or

19 hereafter amended.

20 No order under this provision shall affect title to

21 property.

22 (11) Protection of property. Forbid the respondent

23 from taking, transferring, encumbering, concealing,

24 damaging, or otherwise disposing of any real or personal

25 property, except as explicitly authorized by the court,

26 if:

SB1948

- 216 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the

2 property; or

3 (ii) the petitioner and respondent own the

4 property jointly, and the balance of hardships favors

5 granting this remedy.

6 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the

7 property is that it is marital property, the court may

8 grant petitioner relief under subparagraph (ii) of this

9 paragraph only if a proper proceeding has been filed under

10 the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as

11 now or hereafter amended.

12 The court may further prohibit respondent from

13 improperly using the financial or other resources of an

14 aged member of the family or household for the profit or

15 advantage of respondent or of any other person.

16 (11.5) Protection of animals. Grant the petitioner the

17 exclusive care, custody, or control of any animal owned,

18 possessed, leased, kept, or held by either the petitioner

19 or the respondent or a minor child residing in the

20 residence or household of either the petitioner or the

21 respondent and order the respondent to stay away from the

22 animal and forbid the respondent from taking,

23 transferring, encumbering, concealing, harming, or

24 otherwise disposing of the animal.

25 (12) Order for payment of support. Order respondent to

26 pay temporary support for the petitioner or any child in

SB1948

- 217 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 the petitioner's care or over whom the petitioner has been

2 allocated parental responsibility, when the respondent has

3 a legal obligation to support that person, in accordance

4 with the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage

5 Act, which shall govern, among other matters, the amount

6 of support, payment through the clerk and withholding of

7 income to secure payment. An order for child support may

8 be granted to a petitioner with lawful physical care of a

9 child, or an order or agreement for physical care of a

10 child, prior to entry of an order allocating significant

11 decision-making responsibility. Such a support order shall

12 expire upon entry of a valid order allocating parental

13 responsibility differently and vacating petitioner's

14 significant decision-making responsibility unless

15 otherwise provided in the order.

16 (13) Order for payment of losses. Order respondent to

17 pay petitioner for losses suffered as a direct result of

18 the abuse. Such losses shall include, but not be limited

19 to, medical expenses, lost earnings or other support,

20 repair or replacement of property damaged or taken,

21 reasonable attorney's fees, court costs, and moving or

22 other travel expenses, including additional reasonable

23 expenses for temporary shelter and restaurant meals.

24 (i) Losses affecting family needs. If a party is

25 entitled to seek maintenance, child support, or

26 property distribution from the other party under the

SB1948

- 218 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as

2 now or hereafter amended, the court may order

3 respondent to reimburse petitioner's actual losses, to

4 the extent that such reimbursement would be

5 "appropriate temporary relief", as authorized by

6 subsection (a)(3) of Section 501 of that Act.

7 (ii) Recovery of expenses. In the case of an

8 improper concealment or removal of a minor child, the

9 court may order respondent to pay the reasonable

10 expenses incurred or to be incurred in the search for

11 and recovery of the minor child, including, but not

12 limited to, legal fees, court costs, private

13 investigator fees, and travel costs.

14 (14) Prohibition of entry. Prohibit the respondent

15 from entering or remaining in the residence or household

16 while the respondent is under the influence of alcohol or

17 drugs and constitutes a threat to the safety and

18 well-being of the petitioner or the petitioner's children.

19 (14.5) Prohibition of firearm possession.

20 (A) A person who is subject to an existing

21 domestic violence order of protection issued under

22 this Code may not lawfully possess firearms, stun

23 guns, or tasers ~~weapons under Section 8.2 of the~~

24 ~~Firearm Owners Identification Card Act~~.

25 (B) Any firearms in the possession of the

26 respondent, except as provided in subparagraph (C) of

SB1948

- 219 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 this paragraph (14.5), shall be ordered by the court

2 to be turned over to a personwho is not prohibited

3 under State or federal law from possessing firearms

4 ~~with a valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card for~~

5 ~~safekeeping. The court shall issue an order that the~~

6 ~~respondent's Firearm Owner's Identification Card be~~

7 ~~turned over to the local law enforcement agency, which~~

8 ~~in turn shall immediately mail the card to the~~

9 ~~Department of State Police Firearm Owner's~~

10 ~~Identification Card Office for safekeeping~~. The period

11 of safekeeping shall be for the duration of the

12 domestic violence order of protection. The firearm ~~or~~

13 ~~firearms and Firearm Owner's Identification Card, if~~

14 ~~unexpired,~~ shall at the respondent's request be

15 returned to the respondent at expiration of the

16 domestic violence order of protection.

17 (C) If the respondent is a peace officer as

18 defined in Section 2-13 of the Criminal Code of 2012,

19 the court shall order that any firearms used by the

20 respondent in the performance of his or her duties as a

21 peace officer be surrendered to the chief law

22 enforcement executive of the agency in which the

23 respondent is employed, who shall retain the firearms

1 if the firearms ~~or Firearm Owner's Identification Card~~

2 cannot be returned to respondent because respondent

3 cannot be located, fails to respond to requests to

4 retrieve the firearms, or is not lawfully eligible to

5 possess a firearm, upon petition from the local law

6 enforcement agency, the court may order the local law

7 enforcement agency to destroy the firearms, use the

8 firearms for training purposes, or for any other

9 application as deemed appropriate by the local law

10 enforcement agency; or that the firearms be turned

11 over to a third party who is lawfully eligible to

12 possess firearms, and who does not reside with

13 respondent.

14 (15) Prohibition of access to records. If a domestic

15 violence order of protection prohibits respondent from

16 having contact with the minor child, or if petitioner's

17 address is omitted under subsection (b) of Section 112A-5

18 of this Code, or if necessary to prevent abuse or wrongful

19 removal or concealment of a minor child, the order shall

20 deny respondent access to, and prohibit respondent from

21 inspecting, obtaining, or attempting to inspect or obtain,

22 school or any other records of the minor child who is in

23 the care of petitioner.

24 (16) Order for payment of shelter services. Order

8 the Illinois Public Aid Code, Section 12 of the Vital

9 Records Act, the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Probate

17 Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, or when both

18 parties appeared in open court or at an administrative

19 hearing acknowledging under oath or admitting by

20 affirmation the existence of a father and child

21 relationship. Absent such an adjudication, no putative

22 father shall be granted temporary allocation of parental

23 responsibilities, including parenting time with the minor

24 child, or physical care and possession of the minor child,

25 nor shall an order of payment for support of the minor

26 child be entered.

1 (d) Balance of hardships; findings. If the court finds

2 that the balance of hardships does not support the granting of

3 a remedy governed by paragraph (2), (3), (10), (11), or (16) of

4 subsection (b) of this Section, which may require such

5 balancing, the court's findings shall so indicate and shall

6 include a finding as to whether granting the remedy will

7 result in hardship to respondent that would substantially

8 outweigh the hardship to petitioner from denial of the remedy.

9 The findings shall be an official record or in writing.

10 (e) Denial of remedies. Denial of any remedy shall not be

11 based, in whole or in part, on evidence that:

12 (1) respondent has cause for any use of force, unless

13 that cause satisfies the standards for justifiable use of

14 force provided by Article 7 of the Criminal Code of 2012;

15 (2) respondent was voluntarily intoxicated;

21 of another;

22 (5) petitioner left the residence or household to

23 avoid further abuse by respondent;

18 under this Section, the court shall specify on the record,

15 probation fee, up to $5 of that fee collected per month may be

16 used to provide services to crime victims and their families.

17 The Court may only waive probation fees based on an

18 offender's ability to pay. The probation department may

19 re-evaluate an offender's ability to pay every 6 months, and,

20 with the approval of the Director of Court Services or the

21 Chief Probation Officer, adjust the monthly fee amount. An

22 offender may elect to pay probation fees due in a lump sum. Any

19 Sec. 80. Stalking no contact orders; remedies.

20 (a) If the court finds that the petitioner has been a

21 victim of stalking, a stalking no contact order shall issue;

22 provided that the petitioner must also satisfy the

23 requirements of Section 95 on emergency orders or Section 100

24 on plenary orders. The petitioner shall not be denied a

SB1948

- 295 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 stalking no contact order because the petitioner or the

2 respondent is a minor. The court, when determining whether or

3 not to issue a stalking no contact order, may not require

4 physical injury on the person of the petitioner. Modification

5 and extension of prior stalking no contact orders shall be in

6 accordance with this Act.

7 (b) A stalking no contact order shall order one or more of

8 the following:

9 (1) prohibit the respondent from threatening to commit

10 or committing stalking;

11 (2) order the respondent not to have any contact with

12 the petitioner or a third person specifically named by the

13 court;

14 (3) prohibit the respondent from knowingly coming

15 within, or knowingly remaining within a specified distance

16 of the petitioner or the petitioner's residence, school,

17 daycare, or place of employment, or any specified place

18 frequented by the petitioner; however, the court may order

19 the respondent to stay away from the respondent's own

20 residence, school, or place of employment only if the

21 respondent has been provided actual notice of the

22 opportunity to appear and be heard on the petition;

23 (4) prohibit the respondent from ~~possessing a Firearm~~

1 to be necessary to protect the petitioner or third party

2 specifically named by the court.

3 (b-5) When the petitioner and the respondent attend the

4 same public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or

5 high school, the court when issuing a stalking no contact

6 order and providing relief shall consider the severity of the

7 act, any continuing physical danger or emotional distress to

8 the petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to the

9 petitioner and respondent under federal and State law, the

10 availability of a transfer of the respondent to another

11 school, a change of placement or a change of program of the

12 respondent, the expense, difficulty, and educational

13 disruption that would be caused by a transfer of the

14 respondent to another school, and any other relevant facts of

15 the case. The court may order that the respondent not attend

16 the public, private, or non-public elementary, middle, or high

17 school attended by the petitioner, order that the respondent

18 accept a change of placement or program, as determined by the

19 school district or private or non-public school, or place

20 restrictions on the respondent's movements within the school

21 attended by the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of

22 proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a transfer,

23 change of placement, or change of program of the respondent is

24 not available. The respondent also bears the burden of

25 production with respect to the expense, difficulty, and

26 educational disruption that would be caused by a transfer of

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 the respondent to another school. A transfer, change of

2 placement, or change of program is not unavailable to the

3 respondent solely on the ground that the respondent does not

4 agree with the school district's or private or non-public

5 school's transfer, change of placement, or change of program

6 or solely on the ground that the respondent fails or refuses to

7 consent to or otherwise does not take an action required to

8 effectuate a transfer, change of placement, or change of

9 program. When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the

10 public, private, or non-public school attended by the

11 petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to another

12 attendance center within the respondent's school district or

13 private or non-public school, the school district or private

14 or non-public school shall have sole discretion to determine

15 the attendance center to which the respondent is transferred.

16 In the event the court order results in a transfer of the minor

17 respondent to another attendance center, a change in the

18 respondent's placement, or a change of the respondent's

19 program, the parents, guardian, or legal custodian of the

20 respondent is responsible for transportation and other costs

21 associated with the transfer or change.

22 (b-6) The court may order the parents, guardian, or legal

23 custodian of a minor respondent to take certain actions or to

24 refrain from taking certain actions to ensure that the

25 respondent complies with the order. In the event the court

26 orders a transfer of the respondent to another school, the

1 parents, guardian, or legal custodian of the respondent are

2 responsible for transportation and other costs associated with

3 the change of school by the respondent.

4 (b-7) The court shall not hold a school district or

5 private or non-public school or any of its employees in civil

6 or criminal contempt unless the school district or private or

7 non-public school has been allowed to intervene.

8 (b-8) The court may hold the parents, guardian, or legal

9 custodian of a minor respondent in civil or criminal contempt

10 for a violation of any provision of any order entered under

11 this Act for conduct of the minor respondent in violation of

12 this Act if the parents, guardian, or legal custodian

13 directed, encouraged, or assisted the respondent minor in such

14 conduct.

15 (c) The court may award the petitioner costs and attorneys

16 fees if a stalking no contact order is granted.

17 (d) Monetary damages are not recoverable as a remedy.

18 (e) If the stalking no contact order prohibits the

19 respondent from ~~possessing a Firearm Owner's Identification~~

20 ~~Card, or~~ possessing or buying firearms; the court shall

21 confiscate the respondent's firearms ~~Firearm Owner's~~

5 an order of protection shall be determined in accordance with

6 this Section and one of the following Sections, as

7 appropriate: Section 217 on emergency orders, Section 218 on

11 (1) Prohibition of abuse, neglect, or exploitation.

12 Prohibit respondent's harassment, interference with

13 personal liberty, intimidation of a dependent, physical

14 abuse, or willful deprivation, neglect or exploitation, as

15 defined in this Act, or stalking of the petitioner, as

1 limited by the standard set forth in subsection (c-2) of

2 Section 501 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of

3 Marriage Act.

4 (A) Right to occupancy. A party has a right to

5 occupancy of a residence or household if it is solely

6 or jointly owned or leased by that party, that party's

7 spouse, a person with a legal duty to support that

8 party or a minor child in that party's care, or by any

9 person or entity other than the opposing party that

10 authorizes that party's occupancy (e.g., a domestic

11 violence shelter). Standards set forth in subparagraph

12 (B) shall not preclude equitable relief.

13 (B) Presumption of hardships. If petitioner and

14 respondent each has the right to occupancy of a

15 residence or household, the court shall balance (i)

16 the hardships to respondent and any minor child or

17 dependent adult in respondent's care resulting from

18 entry of this remedy with (ii) the hardships to

19 petitioner and any minor child or dependent adult in

20 petitioner's care resulting from continued exposure to

21 the risk of abuse (should petitioner remain at the

22 residence or household) or from loss of possession of

23 the residence or household (should petitioner leave to

24 avoid the risk of abuse). When determining the balance

25 of hardships, the court shall also take into account

26 the accessibility of the residence or household.

SB1948

1 Hardships need not be balanced if respondent does not

2 have a right to occupancy.

3 The balance of hardships is presumed to favor

4 possession by petitioner unless the presumption is

5 rebutted by a preponderance of the evidence, showing

6 that the hardships to respondent substantially

7 outweigh the hardships to petitioner and any minor

8 child or dependent adult in petitioner's care. The

9 court, on the request of petitioner or on its own

10 motion, may order respondent to provide suitable,

11 accessible, alternate housing for petitioner instead

12 of excluding respondent from a mutual residence or

13 household.

14 (3) Stay away order and additional prohibitions. Order

15 respondent to stay away from petitioner or any other

16 person protected by the order of protection, or prohibit

17 respondent from entering or remaining present at

18 petitioner's school, place of employment, or other

19 specified places at times when petitioner is present, or

20 both, if reasonable, given the balance of hardships.

21 Hardships need not be balanced for the court to enter a

22 stay away order or prohibit entry if respondent has no

23 right to enter the premises.

24 (A) If an order of protection grants petitioner

25 exclusive possession of the residence, or prohibits

2 protected persons, then the court may allow respondent

3 access to the residence to remove items of clothing

4 and personal adornment used exclusively by respondent,

5 medications, and other items as the court directs. The

6 right to access shall be exercised on only one

7 occasion as the court directs and in the presence of an

8 agreed-upon adult third party or law enforcement

9 officer.

10 (B) When the petitioner and the respondent attend

11 the same public, private, or non-public elementary,

12 middle, or high school, the court when issuing an

13 order of protection and providing relief shall

14 consider the severity of the act, any continuing

15 physical danger or emotional distress to the

16 petitioner, the educational rights guaranteed to the

17 petitioner and respondent under federal and State law,

18 the availability of a transfer of the respondent to

19 another school, a change of placement or a change of

20 program of the respondent, the expense, difficulty,

21 and educational disruption that would be caused by a

22 transfer of the respondent to another school, and any

23 other relevant facts of the case. The court may order

24 that the respondent not attend the public, private, or

25 non-public elementary, middle, or high school attended

26 by the petitioner, order that the respondent accept a

SB1948

- 311 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 change of placement or change of program, as

2 determined by the school district or private or

3 non-public school, or place restrictions on the

4 respondent's movements within the school attended by

5 the petitioner. The respondent bears the burden of

6 proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a

7 transfer, change of placement, or change of program of

8 the respondent is not available. The respondent also

9 bears the burden of production with respect to the

10 expense, difficulty, and educational disruption that

11 would be caused by a transfer of the respondent to

12 another school. A transfer, change of placement, or

13 change of program is not unavailable to the respondent

14 solely on the ground that the respondent does not

15 agree with the school district's or private or

16 non-public school's transfer, change of placement, or

17 change of program or solely on the ground that the

18 respondent fails or refuses to consent or otherwise

19 does not take an action required to effectuate a

20 transfer, change of placement, or change of program.

21 When a court orders a respondent to stay away from the

22 public, private, or non-public school attended by the

23 petitioner and the respondent requests a transfer to

24 another attendance center within the respondent's

25 school district or private or non-public school, the

26 school district or private or non-public school shall

SB1948

- 312 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 have sole discretion to determine the attendance

2 center to which the respondent is transferred. In the

3 event the court order results in a transfer of the

4 minor respondent to another attendance center, a

5 change in the respondent's placement, or a change of

6 the respondent's program, the parents, guardian, or

7 legal custodian of the respondent is responsible for

8 transportation and other costs associated with the

9 transfer or change.

10 (C) The court may order the parents, guardian, or

11 legal custodian of a minor respondent to take certain

12 actions or to refrain from taking certain actions to

13 ensure that the respondent complies with the order. In

14 the event the court orders a transfer of the

15 respondent to another school, the parents, guardian,

16 or legal custodian of the respondent is responsible

17 for transportation and other costs associated with the

18 change of school by the respondent.

19 (4) Counseling. Require or recommend the respondent to

20 undergo counseling for a specified duration with a social

21 worker, psychologist, clinical psychologist,

22 psychiatrist, family service agency, alcohol or substance

23 abuse program, mental health center guidance counselor,

24 agency providing services to elders, program designed for

25 domestic violence abusers or any other guidance service

26 the court deems appropriate. The Court may order the

SB1948

- 313 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 respondent in any intimate partner relationship to report

2 to an Illinois Department of Human Services protocol

3 approved partner abuse intervention program for an

4 assessment and to follow all recommended treatment.

5 (5) Physical care and possession of the minor child.

6 In order to protect the minor child from abuse, neglect,

7 or unwarranted separation from the person who has been the

8 minor child's primary caretaker, or to otherwise protect

9 the well-being of the minor child, the court may do either

10 or both of the following: (i) grant petitioner physical

11 care or possession of the minor child, or both, or (ii)

12 order respondent to return a minor child to, or not remove

13 a minor child from, the physical care of a parent or person

14 in loco parentis.

15 If a court finds, after a hearing, that respondent has

16 committed abuse (as defined in Section 103) of a minor

17 child, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that

18 awarding physical care to respondent would not be in the

19 minor child's best interest.

20 (6) Temporary allocation of parental responsibilities:

21 significant decision-making. Award temporary

22 decision-making responsibility to petitioner in accordance

23 with this Section, the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution

24 of Marriage Act, the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015, and

25 this State's Uniform Child-Custody Jurisdiction and

26 Enforcement Act.

SB1948

- 314 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 If a court finds, after a hearing, that respondent has

2 committed abuse (as defined in Section 103) of a minor

3 child, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that

4 awarding temporary significant decision-making

5 responsibility to respondent would not be in the child's

6 best interest.

7 (7) Parenting time. Determine the parenting time, if

8 any, of respondent in any case in which the court awards

9 physical care or allocates temporary significant

10 decision-making responsibility of a minor child to

11 petitioner. The court shall restrict or deny respondent's

12 parenting time with a minor child if the court finds that

13 respondent has done or is likely to do any of the

14 following: (i) abuse or endanger the minor child during

15 parenting time; (ii) use the parenting time as an

16 opportunity to abuse or harass petitioner or petitioner's

17 family or household members; (iii) improperly conceal or

18 detain the minor child; or (iv) otherwise act in a manner

19 that is not in the best interests of the minor child. The

20 court shall not be limited by the standards set forth in

21 Section 603.10 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of

22 Marriage Act. If the court grants parenting time, the

23 order shall specify dates and times for the parenting time

24 to take place or other specific parameters or conditions

25 that are appropriate. No order for parenting time shall

26 refer merely to the term "reasonable parenting time".

SB1948

- 315 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 Petitioner may deny respondent access to the minor

2 child if, when respondent arrives for parenting time,

3 respondent is under the influence of drugs or alcohol and

4 constitutes a threat to the safety and well-being of

5 petitioner or petitioner's minor children or is behaving

6 in a violent or abusive manner.

7 If necessary to protect any member of petitioner's

8 family or household from future abuse, respondent shall be

9 prohibited from coming to petitioner's residence to meet

10 the minor child for parenting time, and the parties shall

11 submit to the court their recommendations for reasonable

12 alternative arrangements for parenting time. A person may

13 be approved to supervise parenting time only after filing

14 an affidavit accepting that responsibility and

15 acknowledging accountability to the court.

16 (8) Removal or concealment of minor child. Prohibit

17 respondent from removing a minor child from the State or

18 concealing the child within the State.

19 (9) Order to appear. Order the respondent to appear in

20 court, alone or with a minor child, to prevent abuse,

21 neglect, removal or concealment of the child, to return

22 the child to the custody or care of the petitioner or to

23 permit any court-ordered interview or examination of the

24 child or the respondent.

25 (10) Possession of personal property. Grant petitioner

26 exclusive possession of personal property and, if

SB1948

- 316 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 respondent has possession or control, direct respondent to

2 promptly make it available to petitioner, if:

3 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the

4 property; or

5 (ii) the parties own the property jointly; sharing

6 it would risk abuse of petitioner by respondent or is

7 impracticable; and the balance of hardships favors

8 temporary possession by petitioner.

9 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the

10 property is that it is marital property, the court may

11 award petitioner temporary possession thereof under the

12 standards of subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph only if a

13 proper proceeding has been filed under the Illinois

14 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as now or

15 hereafter amended.

16 No order under this provision shall affect title to

17 property.

18 (11) Protection of property. Forbid the respondent

19 from taking, transferring, encumbering, concealing,

20 damaging or otherwise disposing of any real or personal

21 property, except as explicitly authorized by the court,

22 if:

23 (i) petitioner, but not respondent, owns the

24 property; or

25 (ii) the parties own the property jointly, and the

26 balance of hardships favors granting this remedy.

SB1948

- 317 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 If petitioner's sole claim to ownership of the

2 property is that it is marital property, the court may

3 grant petitioner relief under subparagraph (ii) of this

4 paragraph only if a proper proceeding has been filed under

5 the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as

6 now or hereafter amended.

7 The court may further prohibit respondent from

8 improperly using the financial or other resources of an

9 aged member of the family or household for the profit or

10 advantage of respondent or of any other person.

11 (11.5) Protection of animals. Grant the petitioner the

12 exclusive care, custody, or control of any animal owned,

13 possessed, leased, kept, or held by either the petitioner

14 or the respondent or a minor child residing in the

15 residence or household of either the petitioner or the

16 respondent and order the respondent to stay away from the

17 animal and forbid the respondent from taking,

18 transferring, encumbering, concealing, harming, or

19 otherwise disposing of the animal.

20 (12) Order for payment of support. Order respondent to

21 pay temporary support for the petitioner or any child in

22 the petitioner's care or over whom the petitioner has been

23 allocated parental responsibility, when the respondent has

24 a legal obligation to support that person, in accordance

25 with the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage

26 Act, which shall govern, among other matters, the amount

SB1948

- 318 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 of support, payment through the clerk and withholding of

2 income to secure payment. An order for child support may

3 be granted to a petitioner with lawful physical care of a

4 child, or an order or agreement for physical care of a

5 child, prior to entry of an order allocating significant

6 decision-making responsibility. Such a support order shall

7 expire upon entry of a valid order allocating parental

8 responsibility differently and vacating the petitioner's

9 significant decision-making authority, unless otherwise

10 provided in the order.

11 (13) Order for payment of losses. Order respondent to

12 pay petitioner for losses suffered as a direct result of

13 the abuse, neglect, or exploitation. Such losses shall

14 include, but not be limited to, medical expenses, lost

15 earnings or other support, repair or replacement of

16 property damaged or taken, reasonable attorney's fees,

17 court costs and moving or other travel expenses, including

18 additional reasonable expenses for temporary shelter and

19 restaurant meals.

20 (i) Losses affecting family needs. If a party is

21 entitled to seek maintenance, child support or

22 property distribution from the other party under the

23 Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as

24 now or hereafter amended, the court may order

25 respondent to reimburse petitioner's actual losses, to

26 the extent that such reimbursement would be

SB1948

- 319 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 "appropriate temporary relief", as authorized by

2 subsection (a)(3) of Section 501 of that Act.

3 (ii) Recovery of expenses. In the case of an

4 improper concealment or removal of a minor child, the

5 court may order respondent to pay the reasonable

6 expenses incurred or to be incurred in the search for

7 and recovery of the minor child, including but not

8 limited to legal fees, court costs, private

9 investigator fees, and travel costs.

10 (14) Prohibition of entry. Prohibit the respondent

11 from entering or remaining in the residence or household

12 while the respondent is under the influence of alcohol or

13 drugs and constitutes a threat to the safety and

14 well-being of the petitioner or the petitioner's children.

15 (14.5) Prohibition of firearm possession.

16 (a) Prohibit a respondent against whom an order of

17 protection was issued from possessing any firearms

18 during the duration of the order if the order:

19 (1) was issued after a hearing of which such

20 person received actual notice, and at which such

21 person had an opportunity to participate;

22 (2) restrains such person from harassing,

23 stalking, or threatening an intimate partner of

24 such person or child of such intimate partner or

25 person, or engaging in other conduct that would

26 place an intimate partner in reasonable fear of

SB1948

- 320 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 bodily injury to the partner or child; and

2 (3)(i) includes a finding that such person

3 represents a credible threat to the physical

4 safety of such intimate partner or child; or (ii)

5 by its terms explicitly prohibits the use,

6 attempted use, or threatened use of physical force

7 against such intimate partner or child that would

8 reasonably be expected to cause bodily injury.

9 ~~Any Firearm Owner's Identification Card in the~~

10 ~~possession of the respondent, except as provided in~~

11 ~~subsection (b), shall be ordered by the court to be~~

12 ~~turned over to the local law enforcement agency. The~~

13 ~~local law enforcement agency shall immediately mail~~

14 ~~the card to the Department of State Police Firearm~~

15 ~~Owner's Identification Card Office for safekeeping.~~

16 The court shall issue a warrant for seizure of any

17 firearm in the possession of the respondent, to be

18 kept by the local law enforcement agency for

19 safekeeping, except as provided in subsection (b). The

20 period of safekeeping shall be for the duration of the

21 order of protection. The firearm or firearms ~~and~~

22 ~~Firearm Owner's Identification Card, if unexpired,~~

23 shall at the respondent's request, be returned to the

24 respondent at the end of the order of protection. It is

25 the respondent's responsibility to notify the

26 Department of State Police ~~Firearm Owner's~~

SB1948

- 321 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 ~~Identification Card Office~~.

2 (b) If the respondent is a peace officer as

3 defined in Section 2-13 of the Criminal Code of 2012,

4 the court shall order that any firearms used by the

5 respondent in the performance of his or her duties as a

6 peace officer be surrendered to the chief law

7 enforcement executive of the agency in which the

8 respondent is employed, who shall retain the firearms

9 for safekeeping for the duration of the order of

10 protection.

11 (c) Upon expiration of the period of safekeeping,

12 if the firearms ~~or Firearm Owner's Identification Card~~

13 cannot be returned to respondent because respondent

14 cannot be located, fails to respond to requests to

15 retrieve the firearms, or is not lawfully eligible to

16 possess a firearm, upon petition from the local law

17 enforcement agency, the court may order the local law

18 enforcement agency to destroy the firearms, use the

19 firearms for training purposes, or for any other

20 application as deemed appropriate by the local law

21 enforcement agency; or that the firearms be turned

22 over to a third party who is lawfully eligible to

23 possess firearms, and who does not reside with

24 respondent.

25 (15) Prohibition of access to records. If an order of

26 protection prohibits respondent from having contact with

SB1948

- 322 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 the minor child, or if petitioner's address is omitted

2 under subsection (b) of Section 203, or if necessary to

3 prevent abuse or wrongful removal or concealment of a

4 minor child, the order shall deny respondent access to,

5 and prohibit respondent from inspecting, obtaining, or

6 attempting to inspect or obtain, school or any other

7 records of the minor child who is in the care of

8 petitioner.

9 (16) Order for payment of shelter services. Order

10 respondent to reimburse a shelter providing temporary

11 housing and counseling services to the petitioner for the

12 cost of the services, as certified by the shelter and

13 deemed reasonable by the court.

15 relief necessary or appropriate to prevent further abuse

16 of a family or household member or further abuse, neglect,

17 or exploitation of a high-risk adult with disabilities or

18 to effectuate one of the granted remedies, if supported by

19 the balance of hardships. If the harm to be prevented by

20 the injunction is abuse or any other harm that one of the

21 remedies listed in paragraphs (1) through (16) of this

22 subsection is designed to prevent, no further evidence is

23 necessary that the harm is an irreparable injury.

24 (18) Telephone services.

25 (A) Unless a condition described in subparagraph

26 (B) of this paragraph exists, the court may, upon

SB1948

- 323 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 request by the petitioner, order a wireless telephone

2 service provider to transfer to the petitioner the

3 right to continue to use a telephone number or numbers

4 indicated by the petitioner and the financial

5 responsibility associated with the number or numbers,

6 as set forth in subparagraph (C) of this paragraph.

7 For purposes of this paragraph (18), the term

8 "wireless telephone service provider" means a provider

9 of commercial mobile service as defined in 47 U.S.C.

10 332. The petitioner may request the transfer of each

11 telephone number that the petitioner, or a minor child

12 in his or her custody, uses. The clerk of the court

13 shall serve the order on the wireless telephone

14 service provider's agent for service of process

15 provided to the Illinois Commerce Commission. The

16 order shall contain all of the following:

17 (i) The name and billing telephone number of

25 and right to the use of any telephone number

26 transferred under this paragraph.

SB1948

- 324 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 (B) A wireless telephone service provider shall

2 terminate the respondent's use of, and shall transfer

3 to the petitioner use of, the telephone number or

4 numbers indicated in subparagraph (A) of this

5 paragraph unless it notifies the petitioner, within 72

6 hours after it receives the order, that one of the

7 following applies:

8 (i) The account holder named in the order has

9 terminated the account.

10 (ii) A difference in network technology would

11 prevent or impair the functionality of a device on

12 a network if the transfer occurs.

13 (iii) The transfer would cause a geographic or

14 other limitation on network or service provision

15 to the petitioner.

16 (iv) Another technological or operational

17 issue would prevent or impair the use of the

18 telephone number if the transfer occurs.

19 (C) The petitioner assumes all financial

20 responsibility for and right to the use of any

21 telephone number transferred under this paragraph. In

22 this paragraph, "financial responsibility" includes

23 monthly service costs and costs associated with any

24 mobile device associated with the number.

25 (D) A wireless telephone service provider may

26 apply to the petitioner its routine and customary

SB1948

- 325 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 requirements for establishing an account or

2 transferring a number, including requiring the

3 petitioner to provide proof of identification,

4 financial information, and customer preferences.

5 (E) Except for willful or wanton misconduct, a

6 wireless telephone service provider is immune from

7 civil liability for its actions taken in compliance

8 with a court order issued under this paragraph.

9 (F) All wireless service providers that provide

10 services to residential customers shall provide to the

11 Illinois Commerce Commission the name and address of

12 an agent for service of orders entered under this

13 paragraph (18). Any change in status of the registered

14 agent must be reported to the Illinois Commerce

15 Commission within 30 days of such change.

16 (G) The Illinois Commerce Commission shall

17 maintain the list of registered agents for service for

18 each wireless telephone service provider on the

19 Commission's website. The Commission may consult with

20 wireless telephone service providers and the Circuit

21 Court Clerks on the manner in which this information

22 is provided and displayed.

23 (c) Relevant factors; findings.

24 (1) In determining whether to grant a specific remedy,

25 other than payment of support, the court shall consider

26 relevant factors, including but not limited to the

SB1948

- 326 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 following:

2 (i) the nature, frequency, severity, pattern and

3 consequences of the respondent's past abuse, neglect

4 or exploitation of the petitioner or any family or

5 household member, including the concealment of his or

6 her location in order to evade service of process or

7 notice, and the likelihood of danger of future abuse,

8 neglect, or exploitation to petitioner or any member

9 of petitioner's or respondent's family or household;

10 and

11 (ii) the danger that any minor child will be

12 abused or neglected or improperly relocated from the

13 jurisdiction, improperly concealed within the State or

14 improperly separated from the child's primary

15 caretaker.

16 (2) In comparing relative hardships resulting to the

17 parties from loss of possession of the family home, the

18 court shall consider relevant factors, including but not

19 limited to the following:

20 (i) availability, accessibility, cost, safety,

21 adequacy, location and other characteristics of

22 alternate housing for each party and any minor child

23 or dependent adult in the party's care;

24 (ii) the effect on the party's employment; and

25 (iii) the effect on the relationship of the party,

26 and any minor child or dependent adult in the party's

SB1948

- 327 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 care, to family, school, church and community.

2 (3) Subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph

3 (4) of this subsection, the court shall make its findings

4 in an official record or in writing, and shall at a minimum

5 set forth the following:

6 (i) That the court has considered the applicable

7 relevant factors described in paragraphs (1) and (2)

8 of this subsection.

9 (ii) Whether the conduct or actions of respondent,

10 unless prohibited, will likely cause irreparable harm

11 or continued abuse.

12 (iii) Whether it is necessary to grant the

13 requested relief in order to protect petitioner or

14 other alleged abused persons.

15 (4) For purposes of issuing an ex parte emergency

16 order of protection, the court, as an alternative to or as

17 a supplement to making the findings described in

18 paragraphs (c)(3)(i) through (c)(3)(iii) of this

19 subsection, may use the following procedure:

20 When a verified petition for an emergency order of

21 protection in accordance with the requirements of Sections

22 203 and 217 is presented to the court, the court shall

23 examine petitioner on oath or affirmation. An emergency

24 order of protection shall be issued by the court if it

25 appears from the contents of the petition and the

26 examination of petitioner that the averments are

SB1948

- 328 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 sufficient to indicate abuse by respondent and to support

2 the granting of relief under the issuance of the emergency

3 order of protection.

4 (5) Never married parties. No rights or

5 responsibilities for a minor child born outside of

6 marriage attach to a putative father until a father and

7 child relationship has been established under the Illinois

8 Parentage Act of 1984, the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015,

9 the Illinois Public Aid Code, Section 12 of the Vital

10 Records Act, the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Probate

11 Act of 1975, the Revised Uniform Reciprocal Enforcement of

12 Support Act, the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act,

13 the Expedited Child Support Act of 1990, any judicial,

14 administrative, or other act of another state or

15 territory, any other Illinois statute, or by any foreign

16 nation establishing the father and child relationship, any

17 other proceeding substantially in conformity with the

18 Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity

19 Reconciliation Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-193), or where

20 both parties appeared in open court or at an

21 administrative hearing acknowledging under oath or

22 admitting by affirmation the existence of a father and

23 child relationship. Absent such an adjudication, finding,

24 or acknowledgment, no putative father shall be granted

25 temporary allocation of parental responsibilities,

26 including parenting time with the minor child, or physical

SB1948

- 329 -

LRB102 15817 RLC 21185 b

1 care and possession of the minor child, nor shall an order

2 of payment for support of the minor child be entered.

3 (d) Balance of hardships; findings. If the court finds

4 that the balance of hardships does not support the granting of

5 a remedy governed by paragraph (2), (3), (10), (11), or (16) of

6 subsection (b) of this Section, which may require such

7 balancing, the court's findings shall so indicate and shall

8 include a finding as to whether granting the remedy will

9 result in hardship to respondent that would substantially

10 outweigh the hardship to petitioner from denial of the remedy.

11 The findings shall be an official record or in writing.

12 (e) Denial of remedies. Denial of any remedy shall not be

13 based, in whole or in part, on evidence that:

14 (1) Respondent has cause for any use of force, unless

15 that cause satisfies the standards for justifiable use of

16 force provided by Article 7 of the Criminal Code of 2012;

17 (2) Respondent was voluntarily intoxicated;

18 (3) Petitioner acted in self-defense or defense of

19 another, provided that, if petitioner utilized force, such

20 force was justifiable under Article 7 of the Criminal Code

21 of 2012;

22 (4) Petitioner did not act in self-defense or defense

23 of another;

24 (5) Petitioner left the residence or household to

25 avoid further abuse, neglect, or exploitation by

26 respondent;

SB1948

- 330 -
