337 N.E.2d 237

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. WILLIAM J. CARTWRIGHT, Defendant-Appellant.

Appellate Court of Illinois — Fourth District.

November 6, 1975.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Richard J. Wilson and Joshua Sachs, both of State Appellate Defender's Office, of Springfield, for appellant.

Robert J. Bier, State's Attorney, of Quincy (G. Michael Prall, and Robert C. Perry, both of Illinois State's Attorneys Association, of counsel), for the People.

Judgment affirmed.

Mr. PRESIDING JUSTICE SIMKINS delivered the opinion of the court:

Defendant was convicted by a jury of forgery and received a sentence of two to six years' imprisonment.

He appeals, raising two contentions. The first is that the trial court erred in giving a confession instruction and refusing an admission instruction. The second issue is a question of excessiveness of sentence.
