Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Aggravated DUI
Defendant pled guilty to Class 2 felony of aggravated DUI and Class 3 felony of driving while license revoked, and was sentenced to concurrent prison sentences of six years and four years. Date that a court reporter certifies a report of proceedings per Rule 608(b) has nothing to do with the date the transcript of proceedings was prepared, and is thus irrelevant to whether defense counsel could have examined transcript to be stated in counsel's Rule 604(d) certificate. Sentences were not excessive; Defendant had 11 prior convictions for driving on revoked or suspended license and failed to attend TASC screening as referred by probation officer. (KNECHT and APPLETON, concurring.)
