Elmer Fudd Posted January 17, 2015 at 06:39 PM Share Posted January 17, 2015 at 06:39 PM The House published bill #200 on Thursday so its my turn already. What's your opinion of HB216? Should I keep and eye on it? I need to spend more time with the proposed language. The initial provision is straight forward, its the ability to suspend or expel a student that has been convicted of a "violent felony". The further language is a bit broader in that it permits the same actions based upon an arrest and a charge...doesn't even seem to require grand jury action or a charging indictment. There is some difficulty in addressing your question as it involves changes to ILCS 105 5/10-22.6 which provides the mechanism for the expulsion of students from public schools. There are a number of provisions in the law which are already broad enough to provide for a school administrator to undertake either action on a discretionary basis for conduct that I would view as less egregious than conviction for a violent felony. The definition of "violent felony" would need to be watched closely as it has the potential for abuse. For example, a couple of grade school kids get into an altercation and one slaps the other with a ruler and an overzealous they get charged with 720 ILCS 5/12-2. Let's move this to PM if you have follow up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talonap Posted January 25, 2015 at 05:30 PM Share Posted January 25, 2015 at 05:30 PM HB 0265 - Prohibits Carry, Transport or Possess A Firearm Within a Residence While an Order of Protection is in Effect. 720 ILCS 5/24-1.9 new Amends the Criminal Code of 2012.

mauserme Posted January 25, 2015 at 05:38 PM Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 at 05:38 PM The subject of the order is the person against whom the order has been issued. The problem with the bill is that existing law already gives the court the ability to deny a person the right to possess firearms when necessary to protect a spouse from a threat. Ms. Manley has been trying to broaden that for several years to not only remove the ability of a judge to weigh the evidence, but also to include all types of orders. This would encompass orders protecting financial assets, giving custody of the family dog to one spouse or another, occupancy of the family home to one spouse, and similar orders that involve no physical threat at all.

We've all heard of or seen scenarios where a spouse makes up some false sob story and calls the police, who show up ready to tan the hide of the other spouse and won't even hear the other side of the story before throwing someone on the ground or against a squad car. It will surely result in malicious spouses harassing the other, and is also an infringement on the rights of the 'defendant' spouse who shouldn't have their rights taken away except by due process.

There are a couple I haven't had a chance to read thoroughly, and are listed as under review. A new bill resurrects a previously failed effort on the part of Representative Drury: HB419 Concealed Carry Prohibit Place - Adds places licensed under the Video Gaming Act as prohibited locations, including fraternal & veterans establishments, and truck stops, whether or not alcohol is served. Changes privilege to post a location any person lawfully in possession and control. Changes private residences to presumptively prohibited.
