Appellate Court of Illinois

In a conviction for armed robbery resulting in a sentence of natural life in prison, denial of a petition for postconviction relief alleging that the sentence violates the proportionate penalties clause of the Illinois Constitution is affirmed where the sentence was given because his third Class X conviction required him to be adjudged an habitual criminal pursuant to the Habitual Criminal Act.
