People v. Green

(Correcting summary.) Defendant, a security guard with a valid FOID card, was convicted of unlawful use of a weapon (UUW) as a felony, as the school zone provision enhanced the misdemeanor UUW.  Defendant was observed wearing a holstered firearm within 1,000 feet of a school, and was charged with UUW for carrying a loaded, accessible firearm while on a public street and while in a vehicle. The pre-2015 version of the UUW statute, which prohibits possession of a firearm within 1000 feet of a school, and under which Defendant was convicted, is facially unconstitutional. (NEVILLE and HYMAN, concurring.)
