Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
Court sentenced Defendant in absentia to 9 years imprisonment, for aggravated DUI. Eight years later, Defendant was arrested and filed motion to vacate or reconsider sentence. Defendant perfected his right to appeal 2015 motion to vacate by filing notice of appeal within 30 days of entry of denial of his motion to vacate. During sentencing proceedings, court sentenced Defendant without first receiving and then considering a written PSI (presentence report of investigation). Remanded for new sentencing proceedings after trial court receives a properly completed PSI. (HOLDRIDGE and LYTTON, concurring.)
