View this case - free  

Overview: Appellate court correctly found child endangerment statute, 720 Ill. Comp. Stat. Ann. 5/12-21.6, contained an unconstitutional presumption that was nevertheless severable, 720 Ill. Comp. Stat. Ann. 5/12-21.6(b), but erred in finding State's evidence was otherwise insufficient to prove defendant's guilt; thus, further proceedings were required.

View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court erred in granting the State's motion to strike defendant's motion pursuant to 625 Ill. Comp.

Overview: Trial court properly convicted sentenced defendant to multiple natural-life sentences under 720 Ill. Comp.

Rodriguez v. Sheriff's Merit Comm'n, Docket No. 100165., SUPREME COURT OF ILLINOIS, January 20, 2006, Opinion Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court properly dismissed a police officer's petition for review of the officer's termination, but should have dismissed the action pursuant to 735 Ill. Comp. Stat. 5/2-619(a), as the officer failed to file the action within the 35-day period provided by 735 Ill. Comp. Stat. 5/3-103, and thus the trial court lacked jurisdiction.
