District: 
1st Dist. Rule 23 Order (12/3/10)
This case presents question as to whether defendant was properly convicted under section 407(b)(2) of Ill. Controlled Substance Act of delivery of controlled substance within 1000 feet of real property comprising any school, where record showed that defendant was within 1,000 feet of preschool. Appellate Court, in reducing defendant's conviction from Class 1 felony to Class 2 felony, found that convictions under section 407(b)(2) did not cover situation where defendant was within 1,000 feet of preschool.
