Illinois Court-Ordered Anger Management Requirements

Illinois courts order anger management under the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS). Common charges include Battery (720 ILCS 5/12-3), Assault (720 ILCS 5/12-1), Aggravated Battery (720 ILCS 5/12-3.05), Domestic Battery (720 ILCS 5/12-3.2), and Disorderly Conduct (720 ILCS 5/26-1).

Cook County (Chicago) handles a very high volume of anger management cases. The Domestic Violence Division of Cook County Circuit Court has specific requirements for DV cases that may differ from general anger management. For DV convictions under 720 ILCS 5/12-3.2, courts may order a Partner Abuse Intervention Program (PAIP) rather than anger management.

Illinois judges have broad discretion to order anger management as a condition of probation or supervision. The duration is set by the judge, typically ranging from 8 to 26 hours.

720 ILCS 5/12-3 — Battery

Class A misdemeanor. Courts commonly order 8-16 hours of anger management.

720 ILCS 5/12-3.2 — Domestic Battery

Illinois Life Skills FAQs

Is online anger management accepted by Cook County courts?

Yes. Cook County courts generally accept online anger management for non-DV cases. For DV cases, check if your order requires a Partner Abuse Intervention Program (PAIP). 100% money-back guarantee.

What is a PAIP in Illinois?

A Partner Abuse Intervention Program (PAIP) is Illinois's DV-specific program. If your order specifies a PAIP, you need a certified PAIP provider. If it says 'anger management,' our course qualifies.

How many hours does Illinois require?

Illinois does not have a statewide standard. The judge sets the hours. Common durations include 8, 12, 16, and 26 hours.
