a)         Every employee has the duty to observe the conduct of youth.

            b)         If an employee observes a youth committing an offense, discovers evidence of its commission, or receives information from a reliable witness of such conduct, the employee shall promptly prepare a disciplinary report provided the conduct is such that it may result in disciplinary action that suspends privileges, involves the imposition of disciplinary confinement, delays referral to the Prisoner Review Board, or causes a change in work, education, or other program assignments of more than 7 days duration.  When the rule infraction is minor, every effort should be made to take corrective action that is adapted to individual circumstances, administered immediately and consistently, and is understood by the youth through appropriate counseling efforts.

 

c)         The disciplinary report must be fully completed.  The reporting employee shall provide the following information to the extent known or available.

 

1)         The name and register number of the youth.

 

2)         The place, time, and date of the offense.

6)         The signature of the reporting employee and the date and time the report is completed.

 

d)         If a youth is suspected of committing a disciplinary offense, an investigative disciplinary report, hereinafter referred to as an investigative report, may be issued that reasonably informs the youth of the subject of the investigation to the extent that safety and security allow.

 

f)         Service of a disciplinary report upon the youth shall commence the disciplinary proceeding.  In no event shall a disciplinary report or investigative report be served upon youth more than 6 days, after the commission of an offense or the discovery thereof unless the youth is unavailable or unable to participate in the proceeding.

 

Section 2504.40  Temporary Confinement

 

a)         The shift supervisor shall determine whether or not it is necessary to place the youth in investigative status or in temporary confinement status pending a disciplinary hearing or a determination whether or not to issue a disciplinary or investigative report in accordance with Section 2504.30.  The Chief Administrative Officer shall also have the authority to release the youth from temporary confinement.  The decision to place a youth in temporary confinement may be based, among other matters, on:

c)         A youth who receives an investigative report shall be interviewed by the Reviewing Officer in order to permit the youth an opportunity to present his or her views regarding placement in investigative status.  The interview shall be conducted within 3 days after initial placement of a youth in investigative status, whenever possible.

 

1)         The Reviewing Officer shall recommend whether to continue placement of the youth in investigative status.  Among other matters, factors listed in Section 2504.40(a) may be considered.  The Chief Administrative Officer shall make the final determination.

 

2)         The youth shall be informed of the decision and the decision shall be documented in writing.

 

3)         The youth may be detained in investigative status for up to 5 days.

 

4)         If the investigation does not indicate that the youth may be guilty of any disciplinary offense, placement in investigative status shall be terminated and the report shall be expunged from the youth's records.  A copy shall be maintained in an expungement file.  This decision shall be made by the Chief Administrative Officer and shall be documented in writing.

 

5)         If, as a result of the investigation, it is necessary to amend or modify the original charges, the youth shall be issued a revised disciplinary report.

 

6)         Upon completion of the investigation, the youth shall appear before the Adjustment Committee for a hearing on the disciplinary report unless the report has been expunged.

 

7)         In the event that an investigation cannot be completed within 5 days due to an institutional emergency, the Chief Administrative Officer may personally authorize, in writing, an extension of up to 5 days placement in confinement for juveniles pending investigation.  As used in this Section, an institutional emergency includes riots, strikes, lockdowns, and natural disasters.

 

d)         The Reviewing Officer shall review each disciplinary report and determine whether:

 

1)         The reported facts justify a disciplinary hearing.  If not, the report shall be expunged from the youth's records.  A copy shall be maintained in an expungement file.

 

2)         The disciplinary report has been completed properly.  If not, the Reviewing Officer shall make the necessary corrections or direct the reporting employee to make the corrections.  The youth shall be provided with a copy of the corrected report.  In the event the corrected report contains new charges, the youth shall be provided a copy of the corrected report at least 24 hours prior to the hearing, unless the youth waives this notice in writing.

 

3)         The offense is major or minor in nature.  Major offenses shall be assigned to the Adjustment Committee for a hearing and minor offenses shall be assigned to the Program Unit for a hearing.

 

A)        Aiding and abetting, soliciting, attempting to commit, conspiring to commit, or committing any offense listed in the 100, 200, or 500 series of Table A shall be considered a major offense.

 

B)        Those offenses listed in the 300 or 400 series or the aiding and abetting, soliciting, attempting to commit, or conspiring to commit any of these offenses shall be designated as major or minor based on the seriousness of the offense and factors enumerated in Section 2504.20(b).

Section 2504.70  Adjustment Committee Hearing Procedures

 

a)         The Adjustment Committee hearing shall be convened but need not be concluded within 7 days after the commission of the offense or its discovery, whenever possible, unless the youth has received a continuance or is unable or unavailable for any reason to participate in the hearing.  For purposes of this Section, when an investigation has taken place, an offense is considered to be discovered upon the conclusion of the investigation.  Inability to participate includes the absence of the youth from the facility for any reason or certification by health care staff that the youth is unable to appear.

 

b)         The youth shall receive written notice of the facts and charges being presented against him or her no less than 24 hours prior to the Adjustment Committee hearing.  The youth may waive the 24-hour advance notice.  The waiver shall be in writing.

 

c)         The youth shall be informed before or at the hearing of information that would tend to show that the youth was not guilty. If information is provided to him or her at the hearing, the youth shall, upon request, be given a continuance.

 

d)         Any person who initiated the allegations that serve as the basis for the disciplinary report, or who conducted an investigation into those allegations, or who witnessed the incident, or who is otherwise not impartial shall not serve on the Adjustment Committee hearing that disciplinary report.  A youth who objects to a member of the Committee based on a lack of impartiality must raise the matter at the beginning of the hearing. The Committee shall document the basis of the objection and the decision in the Adjustment Committee summary.

 

e)         A youth may, upon written request and for good cause shown, be granted additional time to prepare his or her defense.  If at the time of the hearing the Committee determines that the youth was unable to prepare a defense, because of a language barrier, the Committee shall automatically grant a request for a continuance for language assistance.  The committee shall then make the necessary arrangements for language assistance.  Inability to prepare a defense due to a language barrier includes, but is not limited to, a request for witnesses.

 

f)         Any youth charged with a violation of any rules shall have the right to appear before and address the Committee.  Any refusal to appear shall be documented and provided to the Committee.  However, failure to appear before or address the Committee may be adversely construed against the individual by the Adjustment Committee.

 

1)         The youth may make any relevant statement or produce any relevant documents in his or her defense.

 

2)         Prior to the hearing, the youth may request that witnesses be interviewed.  The request shall be in writing on the space provided in the disciplinary report and shall include an explanation of what the witnesses would state.  If the youth fails to make the request in a timely manner before the hearing, the individual may be granted a continuance for good cause shown.

 

g)         The Committee shall consider all material presented that is relevant to the issue of whether or not the youth committed the offense.

 

h)         The Adjustment Committee shall consider any statements of witnesses with relevant knowledge of the incident who are reasonably available.

 

1)         The Committee or its Hearing Investigator may interview witnesses and prepare or review summaries of their testimony prior to or at or subsequent to the hearing.

 

2)         The offender does not have the right to confront or cross-examine any witnesses but may submit questions for witnesses to the Committee prior to the hearing.  These questions shall be asked by the Committee or its Hearing Investigator unless found to be cumulative, irrelevant, or a threat to the safety of individuals or the security of the facility.

 

3)         A means shall be provided in each living unit for youth to submit witness request slips.  The Committee may disapprove witness requests that are not received prior to the hearing.

 

4)         Requests by youth for witnesses may be denied if their testimony would be, among other matters, irrelevant or cumulative or would jeopardize the safety or disrupt the security of the facility.  If any witness request is denied, a written reason shall be provided.

 

5)         At least one person who serves as an Adjustment Committee member shall hear the in-person testimony of the youth's witnesses where the youth makes a timely request for the witnesses or is granted a continuance to request witness testimony.  In-person testimony of the youth's witnesses shall be defined as face-to-face contact or telephonic contact by the Adjustment Committee.

 

6)         If the Adjustment Committee makes a written determination that the in-person testimony by the witness requested by the youth would undermine authority or would present potential disruption of the operations of the facility or a threat to the safety of any person or institutional safety or correctional goals, the Adjustment Committee may elect to accept the testimony through other legally permissible means, including, but not limited to, a sworn written summary of an interview of the witness or a sworn statement.

 

7)         A sworn written statement or sworn written summary of a witness' testimony is a reasonable alternative to in-person testimony if the witness' testimony will be accepted as credible and it involves verification of alleged facts, including but not limited to a witness who will testify to the authenticity of contents of a record or document, cell location, work assignment, writ status, staff work schedule, or identification.

 

8)         When testimony is presented to the Adjustment Committee in the form of a written summary or statement, a copy of the written summary or statement shall be given to the accused youth unless the Adjustment Committee finds that disclosure presents a threat to the safety of any person.

 

i)          The youth shall not have the right to either retained or appointed counsel.  The youth may request the assistance of a staff member in the preparation and presentation of his or her defense if he or she is illiterate or does not speak English or when other circumstances exist that preclude the individual from adequately preparing his or her defense.

 

j)          The Adjustment Committee shall decide whether or not the youth committed the offense based upon all relevant information and evidence.

 

1)         The Committee must be reasonably satisfied there is some evidence that the youth committed the offense for the individual to be found guilty.

 

2)         Polygraph results may be considered but may not be the sole basis for finding the youth guilty of the offense.

 

k)         The Adjustment Committee shall take one of the following actions, based upon the evidence admitted:

 

1)         Find that the youth did not commit the offense.  In that case, the Committee shall order that the disciplinary report be dismissed and expunged from the youth's record.  A copy shall be maintained in an expungement file.

 

2)         Find that further investigation is necessary to determine if the youth did or did not commit the offense and place the youth in investigative status.

 

3)         Find that additional time is needed to obtain information relative to the charge.  The hearing may be continued for a reasonable time.  However, unless the youth is placed in investigative status, the individual may not be confined for more than 7 days from the date of placement in temporary confinement.

 

4)         Find that the youth did commit the offense or a lesser offense for which the elements were included in the original charge.  The Committee may recommend one or more of the following disciplinary actions:

H)        Require the youth to make restitution.

 

I)         Require forfeiture of items of contraband used in the offense or possessed in violation of this Part.

 

J)         Delay referral of a youth to the Prisoner Review Board for recommended parole or aftercare.

l)          A written record shall be prepared and signed by all members of the Committee that contains:

 

1)         A summary of oral and written statements and other evidence presented.

 

A)        The Committee may consider information from confidential sources if:

 

i)          It finds that his or her identity must be withheld for reasons of security; and

 

ii)         The information is reliable.

 

B)        Reliability may be established by one of the following:

 

i)          The investigating officer has indicated, in writing and by his or her appearance before the Adjustment Committee, the truth of his or her report containing confidential information;

 

ii)         Corroborating testimony such as statements from other sources or polygraph results; or

 

iii)        A statement by a member of the Adjustment Committee or an oral or written statement to the Adjustment Committee by supervisory or administrative staff that the individual has firsthand knowledge of the sources of information and considers them reliable on the basis of their past record of reliability.

 

C)        If the identity of a source is being withheld for reasons of security, a statement to that effect and a statement that the Committee finds the information reliable must be included.  A summary of the information provided and the basis for the finding of reliability shall be documented, but need not be included in the summary based on safety and security concerns.

 

2)         If the Committee members find that the youth committed the offense, a statement as to their reasons for the finding. If exonerating evidence is presented and disregarded, the Committee must state the basis for disregarding the evidence.

 

3)         The disposition of the charges, the disciplinary action recommended, and the reasons for recommending the disciplinary action.

 

m)        If the safety or security of the youth center or any person is jeopardized by certain references in the written record, they may be deleted but the fact that omissions have been made shall be noted on the summary, along with a finding that material is being deleted based on safety or security concerns.

 

n)         If the youth is found guilty, the individual shall be informed of the opportunity to appeal through the grievance procedures in 20 Ill. Adm. Code 2504.Subpart C.

Section 2504.80  New or Additional Proceedings

 

a)         The Director, Deputy Director, or Chief Administrative Officer shall remand the decision to the Adjustment Committee for new proceedings if the proceedings are found to be defective due to:

 

1)         Inadequate notice, including failure to state the correct date of the offense on the disciplinary report or failure to provide the youth with 24-hour notice of the hearing and such notice was not waived.

 

2)         Lack of impartiality of the Adjustment Committee.

 

3)         Improper exclusion of witnesses.

 

4)         Failure to provide exonerating information to the youth prior to the hearing.

1)         The youth shall not have the right to a new hearing, but shall be notified of the decision.

 

2)         After the Adjustment Committee has amended its summary, it shall be forwarded to the Chief Administrative Officer and then to the Director in accordance with the procedures applicable to review of the original disposition.

 

d)         Upon remand, sanctions greater than those imposed at the original hearing shall not be permitted unless the youth is charged with a different offense that provides for a greater penalty than provided for under the original charge or new evidence is produced which was not available at the original hearing which justifies the imposition of greater punishment.  However, this does not prohibit the youth from being found guilty and disciplined on remand when the Adjustment Committee had erroneously dismissed the disciplinary report on procedural grounds.

 

Section 2504.90  Program Unit Hearing Procedures

Section 2504.110  Restitution Procedures

 

a)         The Adjustment Committee or Program Unit may recommend that the youth make restitution in any amount not to exceed costs incurred or damages sustained by any person, entity, or state as a result of the disciplinary offense, including expenses for investigating the matter and processing the disciplinary report.  The Adjustment Committee or Program Unit shall document the amount and the conditions of payment.

 

b)         If the Adjustment Committee or Program Unit determines that restitution is appropriate, it shall ask the youth to authorize disbursement from his or her trust fund or from any other account.

 

1)         If the youth agrees to make restitution the individual shall sign an authorization for disbursement of funds either to the State or to the appropriate individual.

 

2)         If the youth refuses to authorize disbursement of his or her current funds or future earnings in accordance with the Adjustment Committee's or Program Unit's recommendation, the Adjustment Committee or Program Unit may recommend that a hold be placed on the individual's account for such amount, and may further recommend that the individual's commissary privileges or other expenditures, be suspended in whole or in part for a definite period of time. However, the youth shall be permitted to retain a sufficient amount of funds to purchase basic personal hygiene items if such items are not provided by the youth center.

 

c)         The Adjustment Committee or Program Unit may consider the youth's willingness to make restitution in imposing any other disciplinary sanctions.

 

d)         A youth shall not be subjected to greater punishment because he or she is without funds and therefore unable to make restitution.

 

e)         In the event a youth is released prior to full payment of restitution, arrangements shall be made for payment of the balance of the authorized restitution.  If the youth did not authorized restitution, all or a portion of the grant money provided for in 20 Ill.
