Provides that the circuit court has jurisdiction over persons who are: (1) subject to involuntary admission on an inpatient basis; or (2) in need of treatment by psychotropic medication and electroconvulsive therapy. Provides that no respondent who has pending felony charges may be ordered to undergo a program of hospitalization in a mental health facility operated by the Department of Human Services unless the Department agrees to the program of hospitalization. Removes provisions granting the circuit court jurisdiction, until January 1, 2030, over all persons subject to involuntary admission on an outpatient basis.
