Illinois General Assembly 12/3/2013 - Regular & Special Sessions

[WtJen]

But pulling your FOID card and making you give up your guns, isn't a criminal prosecution just a violation of the 2nd Amendment so Illinois is on safe ground here.

[transplant]

This new law provides for one anonymous witness to make unsubstantiated claims about your mental health or lack thereof, and have your FOID revoked without due process.

 

It would follow, that upon receiving notice from this anonymous witness, that law enforcement could come to your door and demand that you hand over your property, your guns, again, without due process.

[Tvandermyde]

those things were already in the prior version. they were re-ordered. Look to the struck portions.

[cm.stites]

If a person is determined to pose a clear and present 4 danger to himself, herself, or to others: 5 (1) by a physician, clinical psychologist, or 6 qualified examiner, law enforcement official, or school 7 administrator, or is determined to be developmentally 8 disabled by a physician, clinical psychologist, or 9 qualified examiner, whether employed by the State or 10 privately by a private mental health facility, then the 11 physician, clinical psychologist, or qualified examiner 12 shall, within 24 hours of making the determination, notify 13 the Department of Human Services that the person poses a 14 clear and present danger or is developmentally disabled; or

School administrators were removed.

[colt-45]

Glad they removed school administration from the bill

[il.bill]

If a person is determined to pose a clear and present 4 danger to himself, herself, or to others: 5 (1) by a physician, clinical psychologist, or 6 qualified examiner, law enforcement official, or school 7 administrator, or is determined to be developmentally 8 disabled by a physician, clinical psychologist, or 9 qualified examiner, whether employed by the State or 10 privately by a private mental health facility, then the 11 physician, clinical psychologist, or qualified examiner 12 shall, within 24 hours of making the determination, notify 13 the Department of Human Services that the person poses a 14 clear and present danger or is developmentally disabled; or

School administrators were removed.

 

I hope I just mis-understand, but that is only part of the law as contained in (d)(1). Look at the very next paragraph (d)(2) where school administrator is specifically added. I also do not see 'student' but rather 'person' as the object of the school administrator's determination.

As Todd mentioned above, the reporting requirement was already law. SB114 changed who a school adminisrator reports to, from one department to another, but didn't create a new requirement.
