|||||
Overview: Imposition of $1,172,100 in statutory penalties under 750 Ill. Comp. Stat. Ann. 28/35, was reversed as penalty was about 47 times greater than maximum criminal fine legislature found necessary to ensure spouse's compliance with child support obligation and gross disparity showed penalty was disproportionate to offense and obviously unreasonable.

Overview: Trial court properly granted the State's motion for reconsideration of its grant of defendant's oral motion to withdraw his guilty plea, and denied the motion upon reconsideration, as the order granting the motion to withdraw was interlocutory, and the trial court retained jurisdiction over defendant and the indictment.

|||||
Overview: Trial court did not err by not vacating the inmate's residential burglary conviction and remanding for new trial after inmate's robbery conviction was vacated; even if inmate had not been charged with robbery, all evidence presented at jury trial would have still been admissible as part of continuing narrative of the events on the day in question.

|||||
Overview: Denial of motion to suppress items seized during search indecent to arrest was upheld after appellate court noted that all of the events happened during otherwise routine traffic stop during which defendant's car was not moved and that record suggested entire interaction only lasted a matter of minutes, which was not an unreasonable period of time.

|||||
Overview: The State was not barred by the double-jeopardy provisions of either the federal or state constitutions from going forward with the pending official-misconduct charge after defendant entered an open plea of guilty to theft charge. Trial court did not violate one-act, one-crime rule because it only sentenced defendant on official-misconduct charge.

| Poindexter v. State, NO. 4-05-0709,
APPELLATE COURT OF ILLINOIS, FOURTH DISTRICT, December 12, 2006, Filed
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Trial court erred by enjoining the State of Illinois from seeking support from the income of community spouses as the Medicare Catastrophic Coverage Act of 1988, 42 U.S.C.S. § 1396r-5, did not preempt 305 Ill. Comp. Stat. Ann. 5/10-1 and 10-2 and Ill. Admin. Code tit. 89, § 103.10, the Illinois law regarding pursuing payments for spousal support.

|||||
Overview: Trial court erred in granting summary judgment to a hospital as to claims of medical malpractice and wrongful death, as there was a triable issue of fact as to whether physicians were apparent agents of the hospital, and thus as to whether the hospital could be held vicariously liable for the alleged negligence of the physicians.

|||||
Overview: Human Rights Commission erred in finding that a board of education had discriminated against complainant in violation of 775 Ill. Comp. Stat. Ann. 5/2-102. The record did not support an ALJ's finding that a principal had a discriminatory motive, and the board had established that it would not have hired the complainant because he was unqualified.
