|
Overview: Trial court's response to jury question did not deny defendant right to impartial jury and fair trial but was direct answer to question posed; trial court did not apply law to evidence or instruct the jury on how to do so. Sentence imposed for murder was not disproportionate as, contrary to defendant's contention, he was not a passive participant.

People v. Singleton, NO. 4-04-0043,
APPELLATE COURT OF ILLINOIS, FOURTH DISTRICT, September 7, 2006, Filed

|
Overview: Sufficient evidence supported defendant's conviction of burglary, theft over $ 300, animal torture, and aggravated cruelty to companion animal. Accomplice's testimony regarding defendant's conduct was sufficient to support conviction, as jury was well aware of accomplice's criminal conduct, his guilty plea, and immunity he received.

|
Overview: Denial of defendants' motion to dismiss plaintiffs' personal injury action arising from a snowboarding accident was reversed, as there were not sufficient contacts between defendants and Illinois to support jurisdiction under the long arm statute, 735 Ill. Comp. Stat. Ann. 5/2-209(c) (2002), as defendants did not transact any business in Illinois.

|

|
Overview: The search of defendant did not violate the Fourth Amendment. An officer witnessed defendant engaged in an argument with another man in the middle of the street. Defendant's disorderly conduct under 720 Ill. Comp. Stat. Ann. 5/26-1 justified a Terry stop of defendant.
