People v. Pryor

(Court opinion corrected 2/13/14.) Defendant was convicted of unlawful use or possession of a weapon (UUW) by a felon. The case number of Defendant’s prior conviction, mentioned in the charging instrument, was insufficient to satisfy charging instrument notice requirement in section c of State’s intention to seek enhancement in classification of offense from Class 3 to Class 2 felony. Thus, sentence must be vacated and remanded for sentencing as Class 3 felony. (TAYLOR, concurring; PALMER, dissenting.)
