Defendant was found guilty of two counts of home invasion and a single count of criminal sexual assault. On appeal, defendant argued that, under the one-act, one-crime rule, the criminal sexual assault conviction and one of the home invasion convictions must be vacated, that the trial court erred by ordering him to serve 85 percent of his sentence, and that the trial court erred in ordering him to register as a sex offender. The appellate court vacated one of defendant’s home invasion convictions and his criminal sexual assault conviction as well as the sentencing order requiring him to serve 85 percent of his sentence, but affirmed the requirement that he register as a sex offender because he was convicted of home invasion predicated on a sex offense.
