In the new Lethal Violence Order of Protection Act, defines "family member of the respondent" as a spouse, parent, child, or step-child of the respondent, any other person related by blood or present marriage to the respondent, or a person who shares a common dwelling with the respondent (rather than as defined in the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986).

House Amendment 001

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the bill. Provides that if the respondent is alleged to pose an immediate and present danger of causing personal injury to an intimate partner, or an intimate partner is alleged to have been the target of a threat or act of violence by the respondent, petitioner shall make a good faith effort to provide notice to any and all intimate partners of the respondent. Provides that the notice must include that the petitioner intends to petition the court for an emergency lethal violence order, and, if petitioner is a law enforcement officer, referral to relevant domestic violence or stalking advocacy or counseling resources, if appropriate. Provides that petitioner shall attest to having provided the notice in the filed affidavit or verified pleading. Provides that if after making a good faith effort petitioner is unable to provide notice to any or all intimate partners, the affidavit or verified pleading should describe what efforts were made. Provides that every person who files a petition for an emergency lethal violence order, knowing the information provided to the court at any hearing or in the affidavit or verified pleading to be false, is guilty of perjury. Adds definition of "intimate partner".
