THE CITY OF URBANA et al., Appellees.)" ], "opinions": [ { "text": "Mr. JUSTICE STENGEL\ndelivered the opinion of the court:\nThe county of Champaign appeals from a judgment order declaring that a municipality is entitled to receive the fines and forfeitures collected for violations of State traffic laws committed within its boundaries where the States Attorney conducts the prosecution if the municipality has not obtained the State\u2019s Attorney\u2019s permission to prosecute such violations.\nOn April 1, 1974, the State\u2019s Attorney of Champaign County directed the circuit clerk, Betty Mallow, to pay all fines and forfeitures in city traffic cases to the county treasurer, since no municipal attorney had requested permission to prosecute State violations. Thereafter the municipalities of Urbana, Champaign and Rantoul joined in bringing this declaratory judgment action to determine whether an amendment to section 16 \u2014 102 of the Motor Vehicle Code (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1975, ch. 95*2, par. 16 \u2014 102), effective January 1, 1974, also was intended to change section 16 \u2014 105 of the Code which provided for fines and forfeitures to be paid to the municipality in State traffic offenses occurring within a city where court proceedings are conducted by the State\u2019s Attorney. The circuit clerk interpleaded and paid the disputed funds into the court. The county of Champaign was allowed to intervene with a counterclaim asserting the county\u2019s right to the disputed fines.\nThe trial court held that the amendment to section 16 \u2014 102 was not intended to change the disposition of fines and penalties under section 16 \u2014 105, but was enacted to give municipalities an opportunity to proceed with prosecution when in their opinion that was necessary for more effective law enforcement. This appeal followed.\nSection 16 \u2014 105 of the Motor Vehicle Code (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1975, ch. 95*2, par 16 \u2014 105) provides:\n\u201c(a) Fines and penalties recovered under the provisions of Chapters 11 through 16 inclusive of this Act shall be paid and used as follows:\n1. For offenses committed upon a highway within the limits of a city, \u00b0 \u00b0 \u00b0 to the treasurer of the particular city, 4 4 \" if the violator was arrested by the authorities of the city, * * * provided the police officers and officials of cities, # \u201d shall seasonably prosecute for all fines and penalties under this Act. If the violation is prosecuted by the authorities of the county, any fines or penalties recovered shall be paid to the county treasurer.\u201d\nBefore 1974, section 16 \u2014 102 of the Code (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1973, ch. 95/2, par. 16 \u2014 102) provided in part:\n\u201cThe State\u2019s Attorney of the county in which the violation occurs shall prosecute all violations \u201d \u201d\nIn 1961 a dispute arose as to who \u201cprosecuted\u201d a traffic case, within the meaning of section 16 \u2014 105, where a city police officer made the arrest, signed the complaint, and appeared as a witness in a trial conducted by the State\u2019s Attorney. The court held that the word \u201cprosecute\u201d in section 16 \u2014 105 did not mean the formal conduct of court proceedings but instead meant pursuing the offender as far as legally possible. Since section 16 \u2014 102 did not permit a municipal attorney to engage in court proceedings, the municipality was entitled to the fine in cases where the city police officer made the arrest, signed the charge, and appeared as a witness against the violator. City of Champaign v. Hill (3d Dist. 1961), 29 Ill. App. 2d 429, 173 N.E.2d 839; see also City of Rockford v. Watson (2d Dist. 1969), 108 Ill. App. 2d 146, 246 N.E.2d 458.\nSection 16 \u2014 102, as amended (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1975, ch. 95*2, par. 16 \u2014 102), now provides:\n\u201cThe State\u2019s Attorney of the county in which the violation occurs shall prosecute all violations except when the violation occurs within the corporate limits of a municipality, the municipal attorney may prosecute if written permission to do so is obtained from the State\u2019s Attorney.\u201d (Emphasis added.)\nTwo recent decisions have construed this amendment to section 16\u2014 102. In City of Decatur v. Curry (4th Dist. 1976), 39 Ill. App. 3d 799, 350 N.E.2d 816, the State\u2019s Attorney sent an unsolicited letter to the Decatur city attorney granting permission to prosecute State traffic offenses occurring within the city. Thereafter, the State\u2019s Attorney continued to appear in all such traffic cases requiring an appearance, and all fines collected in such cases were paid to the county, even though city police officers made the arrests and appeared in court. The city brought suit requesting, inter alia, payment of more than *50,000 in fines collected by the county.\nAfter noting that the city had not revoked or refused the grant of permission to conduct court proceedings, the court stated:\n\u201cWe hold that when the State\u2019s attorney of a county has tendered or granted to a municipality within the county and of the type listed in Section 16 \u2014 105 permission for its attorney to prosecute offenses listed in that section, and the State\u2019s attorney is required, because of the failure of that municipal attorney to do so, to appear and prosecute such an offense in either the circuit or appellate court, any fines or penalties recovered in that case, which would otherwise be paid to the municipality shall be paid to the county. In all other cases, fines and penalties shall be distributed as heretofore.\u201d (Emphasis added.) 39 Ill. App. 3d 799, 804, 350 N.E.2d 816, 820.\nShortly after the Decatur decision, another dispute involving the municipalities of Urbana, Champaign and Rantoul was resolved in City of Urbana v. Burgess (4th Dist. 1976), 40 Ill. App. 3d 244, 351 N.E.2d 607. In Urbana, the State\u2019s Attorney had unilaterally granted permission to the municipalities to prosecute traffic violations, but the municipalities had expressly refused to accept such responsibility. The court held that section 16 \u2014 102, as amended, does not permit unilateral delegation or prosecutorial responsibility from the State\u2019s Attorney to municipal officials. Thus when a municipality neither requests nor accepts a grant of authority to prosecute court proceedings in traffic cases, it remains the statutory duty of the State\u2019s Attorney to appear in such cases.\nThe case before us was commenced before State\u2019s Attorney Burgess authorized the municipal attorneys of Urbana, Champaign, and Rantoul to prosecute traffic cases. Therefore the dispute here is limited to the disposition of fines and penalties received before the State\u2019s Attorney\u2019s letter of permission to the municipalities which resulted in the Urbana litigation.\nIt is of course impossible to know with certainty what the legislature intended when it amended section 16 \u2014 102. Although City of Decatur v. Curry held that the disposition of fees and fines has been changed if a municipality receives permission to prosecute State traffic offenders but the city attorney fails to appear, we believe there are also good reasons for concluding that no change was intended, as the trial judge did here. According to either view, the result in this case would be the same since, at the time this suit was commenced, prosecution of State traffic cases in Champaign County was continuing on the same basis as before the section 16 \u2014 102 amendment.\nUnder section 16 \u2014 105, as interpreted by City of Champaign v. Hill (3d Dist. 1961), 29 Ill. App. 2d 429, 173 N.E.2d 839, the municipalities are entitled to the fines and penalties here in dispute, and judgment of the trial court is affirmed. Nothing contained in either the Decatur or the Urbana decision would compel a different result.\nThe municipalities also contend that the amendment to section 16 \u2014 102 violates the constitutional provision for the election of State\u2019s Attorneys (Ill. Const. 1970, art. 6, \u00a719), by creating a quasi State\u2019s Attorney who is not elected. This interesting argument was not presented or considered in the trial court and may not be raised for the first time on appeal. (Department of Public Works v. Schon (1969), 42 Ill. 2d 537, 250 N.E.2d 135; Benson v. Isaacs (1961), 22 Ill. 2d 606, 610, 177 N.E.2d 209.) Hence, the constitutional issue is not properly before us.\nAccordingly, we affirm the judgment of the Circuit Court of Champaign County.\nAffirmed.\nALLOY, P. J., concurs.", "type": "majority", "author": "Mr. JUSTICE STENGEL" }, { "text": "Mr. JUSTICE BARRY,\nspecially concurring:\nWhile agreeing with the result reached by the majority, I do not join in all the reasoning and comments otherwise therein.\nI approve of the holding by the majority in Urbana v. Burgess, (4th Dist. 1976), 40 Ill. App. 3d 244, 246, 351 N.E.2d 607, 609: \u201c[W]e conclude that the present statute does not permit a State\u2019s Attorney to unilaterally delegate such responsibility, and that such may not be imposed absent a request or. an acceptance by the municipal authorities,\u201d but I disagree with the suggestion of the special concurring in Urbana that \u201cThe State\u2019s Attorney can now, however, unil\u00e1terally authorize a municipal attorney to prosecute * 9 * [and] his refusal to do so means the municipality is not entitled to the fine.\u201d (40 Ill. App. 3d 244, 248, 351 N.E.2d 607, 610.) I also specifically disapprove of City of Decatur v. Curry (4th Dist. 1976), 39 Ill. App. 3d 799, 350 N.E.2d 816, believing it to be based upon a false premise, that is, based upon the reasoning rather than the holding in City of Champaign v. Hill (3d Dist. 1961), 29 Ill. App. 2d 429, 173 N.E.2d 839.\nThe last substantive paragraph of the 10-page Hill opinion (29 Ill. App. 2d 429, 450, 173 N.E.2d 839, 849) recites the holding:\n\u201cWe therefore hold, in accordance with the two opinions of the Attorney General of Illinois heretofore cited, that the word \u2018prosecute\u2019 does not include the formal conduct of the court proceeding, but does include the arrest, signing of a complaint for warrant or signing of an information and appearance as witness in court. We must further hold that if these things and acts are performed by the municipal authorities, and the offense is committed within the limits of the municipality, the municipality is entitled to receive the fine collected, irrespective of the actions of the State\u2019s Attorney. In so holding, this court believes that it is construing the word \u2018prosecute\u2019 in accordance with the spirit and intent of the legislature. This court has no right to legislate but only to interpret the laws as legislated.\u201d (Emphasis added.)\nThe question then presented is what is the effect of the 1974 legislative change to section 16 \u2014 102 of the Motor Vehicle Code (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1975, ch. 95M, par. 16 \u2014 102) applied to section 16 \u2014 105 of the Code in light of the Hill precedent. In the instant case the trial court held that the amendment to section 16 \u2014 102 is not intended to change the disposition of fines and penalties under section 16 \u2014 105, but was enacted to give municipalities an opportunity to proceed with prosecution when in their opinion that was necessary for more effective law enforcement. By my view the words of the amendment of section 16 \u2014 102 obviously demand that holding. The legislative language is certainly permissive, not mandatory:\n\u201c[T]he municipal attorney may prosecute if written permission to do so is obtained from the State\u2019s Attorney.\u201d (Emphasis added.)\nI read the language simply to mean that the municipal attorney can now do with permission, if he so requests, what he could not do prior to the amendment of section 16 \u2014 102. The words very strongly imply that the activity or request should flow, if desired, from the municipal attorney to the State\u2019s Attorney, from whom written permission is obtained. I do not see any mandatory substantive legislative change imputed to section 16\u2014 105 by this section 16 \u2014 102 amendatory language. I interpret the legislature\u2019s inaction in not changing or amending section 16 \u2014 105 as an approval of the court\u2019s holding in Hill. Certainly it is logical to assume that the legislature would have amended or clarified section 16 \u2014 105 in light of Hill while amending section 16 \u2014 102 if there was legislative intention to do so.\nKeeping in mind that in the construction of statutes the courts start with the assumption that the legislature intended to enact an effective law and that if reasonably possible no violence should be done to the spirit and language of an act, I read the legislative history of section 16 \u2014 105 and of section 16 \u2014 102 as not indicative of any change of legislative purpose. Historically it appears the real purpose of the legislature was to allot to municipalities and to other local units of government the fines for traffic violations (with some exceptions) occurring within the limits of the muncipalities, or other political subdivisions. Consistently, where the offense occurred has been the primary prerequisite. This pattern of sharing by legislative dictate commenced with the original Motor Vehicle Act in 1935, and there is nothing in the amendments of 1941,1943,1951, 1953 and thereafter (even subsequent to Hill) to indicate the legislature intended any change in the policy. Since the 1943 amendment to the section that is now section 16 \u2014 105, all municipalities, not just cities over 500,000 population, have been legislatively mandated to have the fines and forfeitures for offenses committed within their boundaries, not just benefiting cities over 500,000. It should be recalled that the 1943 amendment was prior to Hill, and as was indicated earlier, there has been no legislative change since.\nThe lack of amendment to section 16 \u2014 105 indicates that the intention of the legislature was to maintain the status quo as to the financial benefits and duties regarding political subdivisions and their officers in other ways. For example the fines and forfeitures resulting from most traffic tickets issued by the state police outside political subdivisions continue to be paid to the county. Perhaps more worthy of note, the county prosecutor is limited to a 10-percent fee for in court prosecution of over-weight fines, and it has been so both prior and subsequent to Hill, and prior and subsequent to the amendment to section 16 \u2014 102. See section 16 \u2014 105(2); that subsection does not even demand that township officials need \u201cseasonably prosecute\u201d or do anything at all in return for the fines and forfeitures the legislature intends for them to receive when there is an offense committed upon a township road.\nIt appears from Curry that $50,000 was involved for the City of Decatur, population about 100,000, in just a few months, that 75 percent of the cases were concluded without a court appearance, and therefore the prosecutor\u2019s office needed to appear in only 25 percent of the cases there. It is evident that considerable moneys can be involved. However to hold as did Curry, the county, and the State\u2019s Attorney\u2019s office, would benefit irrespective of whether the State\u2019s Attorney would even need to appear, and perhaps to follow Curry to a conclusion, irrespective of whether a park district, for example, or a village for that matter, could afford to engage a prosecutor.\nIt seems clear that the amendments to the predecessor of section 16\u2014 105 in 1943 and prior thereto, and the lack of change in section 16 \u2014 105 since, reflects the accommodation to the various municipalities, and other units of local government, within the State, which have differing volumes of traffic violations, varying quality and quantity of local enforcement officers, and law departments ranging from formidable staffs to no regular attorney engaged at all. By my view the amendment of section 16 \u2014 102 and the lack of amendment to section 16 \u2014 105 by the legislature allows for the efficient and preferred operation as will accommodate particular circumstances, but certainly does not suggest the imposition of a new duty upon a perhaps nonexistent local prosecutor.\nSince all the opinions agree that the sole prosecutorial jurisdiction and responsibility resides in the county States Attorney, it would seem the observation in Hill (29 Ill. App. 2d 429, 441, 173 N.E.2d 839, 845) is as appropriate today as it was then: \u201cThe handling of the case in court should be by the State\u2019s Attorney.\u201d Since Hill the Judicial Article of 1964 has commenced a new improved system of justice in Illinois which was designed to coordinate the devotion of full-time professionals. Toward that end the State through the legislature has undertaken to pay, and relieve the counties, of many of the costs, most significant of which is most of the salaries of the judges and State\u2019s Attorneys. The net effect has been to do away with the uncertain quality of the former local justice system. It would appear therefore that the legislature through its implementation of that Judicial Article would intend the State\u2019s Attorneys to in fact more than supervise the quality of prosecution within the county; that the legislature by its inactivity with regard to section 16 \u2014 105 intended for the benefit of the fines and forfeitures to be of secondary consideration, but to remain with the local units of government, both large and small, to supply the necessary revenues for the engaging of police personnel to arrest, sign complaints, testify, and in effect, \u201cseasonably prosecute,\u201d and I attach no importance to whether the State\u2019s Attorney is said to authorize, tender, grant, or delegate, or whether the local prosecutor refuses or rejects by any method. The all important consideration by my view as interpreted by the majority in Urbana is whether the local prosecutor requests the authority to act, or otherwise formally and unquestionably accepts the chore.\nI believe the consistent \u201choldings\u201d, i.e., the 1943 and last amendment to section 16 \u2014 105, the Illinois Attorney General\u2019s Opinions No. 7,1949 and No. 78,1953, the 1961 HUI case, and the majority in Urbana, confirm that the duty to prosecute in the courtroom should not be unilaterally delegated to local prosecutors.\nThe phrase \u201cseasonably prosecute\u201d was also explained by Hill (29 Ill. App. 2d 429, 435, 173 N.E.2d 839, 842): \u201cThe word seasonably\u2019 relates only to time and that is not in dispute here, so the question is further narrowed to the interpretation and construction of the word \u2018prosecute\u2019, as used in the subsection.\u201d\n\u201c[T]he proper function of the courts is to enforce the statute as enacted.\u201d General Motors Corp. v.
