IL HB4312

Expands the definition of "harassment" in domestic violence law to include doxing, electronic tracking or monitoring without consent, and non-consensual creation or dissemination of electronically generated or digitally altered content (including AI-generated images or voice recordings)

Requires all Illinois counties (not just those with populations over 250,000) to provide remote hearing access for protective order proceedings, including for witnesses beyond just the petitioner and respondent

Allows courts to order respondents to stop creating and delete harassing materials including doxing content, digitally altered images, private sexual images, and electronic tracking devices, and to provide evidence of compliance

Establishes that motions to extend plenary protection orders must be filed on or before the expiration date, with the order remaining in effect until the motion is heard; extensions may be granted indefinitely for uncontested requests

Clarifies that extensions of protection orders do not require proof of a violation or subsequent abuse incident, and that respondent's compliance with the original order does not negate the basis for extending the order
