Citation
Case Number: 
2014 IL App (1st) 113335
Decision Date: 
Wednesday, May 14, 2014
District: 
1st Dist.
Division/County: 
Cook Co., 3d Div.
Holding: 
Affirmed.
Justice: 
HYMAN
Defendant was convicted of intentional murder, not of felony murder, and because attempted armed robbery is not a predicate offense, trial court's conviction and sentence on both charges was not a double jeopardy violation. Thus, two year statute of limitations for Section 2-1401 petition for relief from judgment had run, and Defendant's petition was untimely. (PUCINSKI and MASON, concurring.)
