Supreme Court of Illinois

Convictions for robbery and battery are affirmed, despite lack of literal compliance with rule on admonishments to defendants concerning the preservation of sentencing issues, where it did not appear that defendant actually had any sentencing issues to raise. Rather, he was merely pointing to a lack of compliance with the amended rule.
