2d Dist.

Holding: 
Affirmed.
Justice: 
ZENOFF
Defendant appeals from order following a hearing which he refused to attend conducted per Sections 104-25(g)(2) and (g)(2)(i) of Code of Criminal Procedure. Treatment plan reviews during Section 104-25(g)(2) period of treatment and hearings conducted pursuant to section (g)(2)(i) are not fitness hearings. Thus, Section 104-16(c of Criminal Code does not apply to such proceedings. Although Defendant had a right to attend hearing, he rejected court's attempts to facilitate his attendance. (HUTCHINSON and SPENCE, concurring.)
