For the purposes of | ||||||

9 | Substances Act, or the Methamphetamine Control and | ||||||
10 | Community Protection Act, the full street value
of the | ||||||
11 | drugs seized shall be considered. "Street value" shall be
| ||||||
12 | determined by the court on the basis of a proffer by the | ||||||
13 | State based upon
reliable information of a law enforcement | ||||||
14 | official contained in a written
report as to the amount | ||||||
15 | seized and such proffer may be used by the court as
to the | ||||||
16 | current street value of the smallest unit of the drug | ||||||
17 | seized.
| ||||||
18 | (b-1) If a first-time offender is charged with a | ||||||
19 | non-violent offense that is a misdemeanor, the court may order | ||||||
20 | him or her released on his or her own recognizance, unless the | ||||||

22 | secure his or her appearance, and in addition to any other | ||||||
23 | conditions, may order as a condition of his or her release, his | ||||||
24 | or her monitoring under electronic surveillance as provided in | ||||||

4 | reasonable cause, the State's Attorney may request a source of | ||||||
5 | bail hearing either before or after the posting of any funds.
| ||||||
6 | If the hearing is granted, before the posting of any bail, the | ||||||
7 | accused must file a written notice requesting that the court | ||||||
8 | conduct a source of bail hearing. The notice must be | ||||||
9 | accompanied by justifying affidavits stating the legitimate | ||||||
10 | and lawful source of funds for bail. At the hearing, the court | ||||||
11 | shall inquire into any matters stated in any justifying | ||||||
12 | affidavits, and may also inquire into matters appropriate to | ||||||
13 | the determination which shall include, but are not limited to, | ||||||
14 | the following: | ||||||
15 | (1) the background, character, reputation, and | ||||||
16 | relationship to the accused of any surety; and | ||||||
17 | (2) the source of any money or property deposited by | ||||||
18 | any surety, and whether any such money or property | ||||||
19 | constitutes the fruits of criminal or unlawful conduct; and | ||||||
20 | (3) the source of any money posted as cash bail, and | ||||||
21 | whether any such money constitutes the fruits of criminal | ||||||
22 | or unlawful conduct; and | ||||||
23 | (4) the background, character, reputation, and | ||||||

25 | bail. | ||||||
26 | Upon setting the hearing, the court shall examine, under |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | oath, any persons who may possess material information. | ||||||
2 | The State's Attorney has a right to attend the hearing, to | ||||||
3 | call witnesses and to examine any witness in the proceeding. | ||||||
4 | The court shall, upon request of the State's Attorney, continue | ||||||
5 | the proceedings for a reasonable period to allow the State's | ||||||
6 | Attorney to investigate the matter raised in any testimony or | ||||||
7 | affidavit.
If the hearing is granted after the accused has | ||||||
8 | posted bail, the court shall conduct a hearing consistent with | ||||||
9 | this subsection (b-5). At the conclusion of the hearing, the | ||||||
10 | court must issue an order either approving of disapproving the | ||||||
11 | bail.
| ||||||
12 | (c) When a person is charged with an offense punishable by | ||||||
13 | fine only the
amount of the bail shall not exceed double the | ||||||
14 | amount of the maximum penalty.
| ||||||
15 | (d) When a person has been convicted of an offense and only | ||||||
16 | a fine has
been imposed the amount of the bail shall not exceed | ||||||
17 | double the amount of
the fine.

18 | (e) The State may appeal any order granting bail or setting
| ||||||
19 | a given amount for bail. | ||||||

3 | (3) based on the mental health of the person; | ||||||
4 | (4) whether the person has a history of violating the | ||||||
5 | orders of any court or governmental entity; | ||||||
6 | (5) whether the person has been, or is, potentially a | ||||||

7 | the court may, in its discretion, order the respondent to | ||||||
8 | undergo a risk assessment evaluation conducted by an Illinois | ||||||
9 | Department of Human Services approved partner abuse | ||||||
10 | intervention program provider, pretrial service, probation, or | ||||||
11 | parole agency. These agencies shall have access to summaries of | ||||||
12 | the defendant's criminal history, which shall not include | ||||||
13 | victim interviews or information, for the risk evaluation. | ||||||
14 | Based on the information collected from the 12 points to be | ||||||
15 | considered at a bail hearing for a violation of an order of | ||||||
16 | protection, the results of any risk evaluation conducted and | ||||||
17 | the other circumstances of the violation, the court may order | ||||||
18 | that the person, as a condition of bail, be placed under | ||||||
