People v. Almond

This case presents question as to whether defendant may be convicted of two counts for unlawful possession of weapon by felon, where both counts stem from defendant’s possession of one loaded firearm. Appellate Court found that possession of loaded firearm constituted only single offense, and thus it vacated defendant’s conviction for unlawful use of weapon by felon based on defendant’s possession of ammunition inside said firearm. (Dissent filed.)
