    Sec. 3‑10‑5. Transfers to the Department of Human Services.
    (a) If a person committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice meets the standard for admission of a minor to a mental health facility or is suitable for admission to a developmental disability facility, as these terms are used in the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code, the Department may transfer the person to an appropriate State hospital or institution of the Department of Human Services for a period not to exceed 6 months, if the person consents in writing to the transfer.

    (d) Nothing in this Section shall limit the right of the Director of Juvenile Justice or the chief administrative officer of any institution or facility to utilize the emergency admission provisions of the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code with respect to any person in his custody or care. The transfer of a person to an institution or facility of the Department of Human Services under paragraph (a) of this Section does not discharge the person from the control of the Department of Juvenile Justice.
    (e) If the person does not consent to his transfer to the Department of Human Services or if a person objects under paragraph (b) of this Section, or if the Department of Human Services determines that a transferred person requires admission to the Department of Human Services for more than 6 months for any reason, the Director of Juvenile Justice shall file a petition in the circuit court of the county in which the institution or facility is located requesting admission of the person to the Department of Human Services. A certificate of a clinical psychologist, licensed clinical social worker who is a qualified examiner as defined in Section 1‑122 of the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code, or psychiatrist, or, if admission to a developmental disability facility is sought, of a physician that the person is in need of commitment to the Department of Human Services for treatment or habilitation shall be attached to the petition. Copies of the petition shall be furnished to the named person, his parent, or guardian or nearest relative, the committing court, and to the state's attorneys of the county in which the institution or facility of the Department of Juvenile Justice from which the person was transferred is located and the county from which the named person was committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice.
    (f) The court shall set a date for a hearing on the petition within the time limit set forth in the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code. The hearing shall be conducted in the manner prescribed by the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code. If the person is found to be in need of commitment to the Department of Human Services for treatment or habilitation, the court may commit him to that Department.
    (g) In the event that a person committed to the Department under the Juvenile Court Act or the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 is committed to facilities of the Department of Human Services under paragraph (e) of this Section, the Director of Juvenile Justice shall petition the committing juvenile court for an order terminating the Director's custody.

    (730 ILCS 5/3‑10‑7)(from Ch. 38, par. 1003‑10‑7)
    Sec. 3‑10‑7. Interdivisional Transfers.
    (a) In any case where a minor was originally prosecuted under the provisions of the Criminal Code of 1961, as amended, and sentenced under the provisions of this Act pursuant to Section 2‑7 of the Juvenile Court Act or Section 5‑805 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 and committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice under Section 5‑8‑6, the Department of Juvenile Justice shall, within 30 days of the date that the minor reaches the age of 17, send formal notification to the sentencing court and the State's Attorney of the county from which the minor was sentenced indicating the day upon which the minor offender will achieve the age of 17. Within 90 days of receipt of that notice, the sentencing court shall conduct a hearing, pursuant to the provisions of subsection (c) of this Section to determine whether or not the minor shall continue to remain under the auspices of the Department of Juvenile Justice or be transferred to the Adult Division of the Department of Corrections.
    The minor shall be served with notice of the date of the hearing, shall be present at the hearing, and has the right to counsel at the hearing. The minor, with the consent of his or her counsel or guardian may waive his presence at hearing.
    (b) Unless sooner paroled under Section 3‑3‑3, the confinement of a minor person committed for an indeterminate sentence in a criminal proceeding shall terminate at the expiration of the maximum term of imprisonment, and he shall thereupon be released to serve a period of parole under Section 5‑8‑1, but if the maximum term of imprisonment does not expire until after his 21st birthday, he shall continue to be subject to the control and custody of the Department of Juvenile Justice, and on his 21st birthday, he shall be transferred to the Adult Division of the Department of Corrections. If such person is on parole on his 21st birthday, his parole supervision may be transferred to the Adult Division of the Department of Corrections.
    (c) Any interdivisional transfer hearing conducted pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section shall consider all available information which may bear upon the issue of transfer. All evidence helpful to the court in determining the question of transfer, including oral and written reports containing hearsay, may be relied upon to the extent of its probative value, even though not competent for the purposes of an adjudicatory hearing. The court shall consider, along with any other relevant matter, the following:
        1. The nature of the offense for which the minor was
     found guilty and the length of the sentence the minor has to serve and the record and previous history of the minor.
        2. The record of the minor's adjustment within the
     Department of Juvenile Justice, including, but not limited to, reports from the minor's counselor, any escapes, attempted escapes or violent or disruptive conduct on the part of the minor, any tickets received by the minor, summaries of classes attended by the minor, and any record of work performed by the minor while in the institution.
        3. The relative maturity of the minor based upon the
     physical, psychological and emotional development of the minor.
        4. The record of the rehabilitative progress of the
     minor and an assessment of the vocational potential of the minor.
        5. An assessment of the necessity for transfer of the
     minor, including, but not limited to, the availability of space within the Department of Corrections, the disciplinary and security problem which the minor has presented to the Department of Juvenile Justice and the practicability of maintaining the minor in a juvenile facility, whether resources have been exhausted within the Department of Juvenile Justice, the availability of rehabilitative and vocational programs within the Department of Corrections, and the anticipated ability of the minor to adjust to confinement within an adult institution based upon the minor's physical size and maturity.
    All relevant factors considered under this subsection need not be resolved against the juvenile in order to justify such transfer. Access to social records, probation reports or any other reports which are considered by the court for the purpose of transfer shall be made available to counsel for the juvenile at least 30 days prior to the date of the transfer hearing. The Sentencing Court, upon granting a transfer order, shall accompany such order with a statement of reasons.
    (d) Whenever the Director of Juvenile Justice or his designee determines that the interests of safety, security and discipline require the transfer to the Department of Corrections of a person 17 years or older who was prosecuted under the provisions of the Criminal Code of 1961, as amended, and sentenced under the provisions of this Act pursuant to Section 2‑7 of the Juvenile Court Act or Section 5‑805 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 and committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice under Section 5‑8‑6, the Director or his designee may authorize the emergency transfer of such person, unless the transfer of the person is governed by subsection (e) of this Section. The sentencing court shall be provided notice of any emergency transfer no later than 3 days after the emergency transfer. Upon motion brought within 60 days of the emergency transfer by the sentencing court or any party, the sentencing court may conduct a hearing pursuant to the provisions of subsection (c) of this Section in order to determine whether the person shall remain confined in the Department of Corrections.
    (e) The Director of Juvenile Justice or his designee may authorize the permanent transfer to the Department of Corrections of any person 18 years or older who was prosecuted under the provisions of the Criminal Code of 1961, as amended, and sentenced under the provisions of this Act pursuant to Section 2‑7 of the Juvenile Court Act or Section 5‑805 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 and committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice under Section 5‑8‑6 of this Act. The Director of Juvenile Justice or his designee shall be governed by the following factors in determining whether to authorize the permanent transfer of the person to the Department of Corrections:
        1. The nature of the offense for which the person was
     found guilty and the length of the sentence the person has to serve and the record and previous history of the person.
        2. The record of the person's adjustment within the
     Department of Juvenile Justice, including, but not limited to, reports from the person's counselor, any escapes, attempted escapes or violent or disruptive conduct on the part of the person, any tickets received by the person, summaries of classes attended by the person, and any record of work performed by the person while in the institution.
        3. The relative maturity of the person based upon the
     physical, psychological and emotional development of the person.
        4. The record of the rehabilitative progress of the
     person and an assessment of the vocational potential of the person.
        5. An assessment of the necessity for transfer of the
     person, including, but not limited to, the availability of space within the Department of Corrections, the disciplinary and security problem which the person has presented to the Department of Juvenile Justice and the practicability of maintaining the person in a juvenile facility, whether resources have been exhausted within the Department of Juvenile Justice, the availability of rehabilitative and vocational programs within the Department of Corrections, and the anticipated ability of the person to adjust to confinement within an adult institution based upon the person's physical size and maturity.
