438 N.E.2d 222

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. MARTIN C. FITZPATRICK, Defendant-Appellant.

Appellate Court of Illinois — Fifth District.

Opinion filed July 14, 1982.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Randy E. Blue and Daniel M. Kirwan, both of State Appellate Defender's Office, of Mt. Vernon, for appellant.

John Baricevic, State's Attorney, of Belleville (Martin N. Ashley, of State's Attorneys Appellate Service Commission, and Robert C. Cook, research assistant, of counsel), for the People.

Judgment reversed.

PRESIDING JUSTICE KARNS delivered the opinion of the court:

Following a bench trial in the circuit court of St. Clair County, defendant, Martin C. Fitzpatrick, was convicted of the offense of burglary. He was sentenced to a term of three years' imprisonment. Defendant's sole contention on appeal is that the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress his statement because it was obtained as a result of an illegal arrest.
