Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
Defendant was convicted of multiple offenses in connection with an arrest for domestic battery. He was sentenced to an aggregate five-year term and he appealed from his conviction and sentence. The appellate court affirmed as modified, finding that the evidence was sufficient to prove defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt and that the trial court did not err when it imposed an extended-term five-year sentence on defendant’s conviction for resisting arrest. The court further accepted the State’s concession that the trial court erred when it applied truth-in-sentencing to one of the counts and modified the judgment to reflect that defendant is eligible for day-to-day credit.
