Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Postconviction Petitions
Defendant was convicted of armed robbery, and alleged that his appointed postconviction counsel provided unreasonable assistance under Supreme Court Rule 651(c) by failing to review trial exhibits that contained evidence crucial to his pro se claims. Remanded to trial court to allow postconviction counsel to comply with Rule 651(c) requirements as to exhibits, and to allow a supplemental certificate to be filed, if requested; and circuit court directed to then reconsider Defendant's petition or amended petition. (NEVILLE and SIMON, concurring.)
