Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
(Court opinion corrected 8/9/13.) Defendant was sentenced to 50 years for armed robbery while armed with a firearm, and additional 15 years as mandatory firearm enhancement. Prior juvenile adjudication of delinquency should not be treated more harshly than a comparable adult conviction, and thus Defendant was not subject to an extended term because his juvenile adjudications for burglary in and residential burglary were not Class X felonies, and as maximum nonextended-term sentence for Class X felony is 30 years, portion of sentence above that term is void.(HYMAN and PIERCE, concurring.)
