PEOPLE v. BALTHAZAR

No. 1-86-1607.

187 Ill. App.3d 964 (1989)

543 N.E.2d 994

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. AUGUSTUS BALTHAZAR, Defendant-Appellant.

Appellate Court of Illinois — First District (2nd Division).

Opinion filed August 29, 1989.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Randolph N. Stone, Public Defender, of Chicago (Douglas Uhlinger and Alison Edwards, Assistant Public Defenders, of counsel), for appellant.

Richard M. Daley, State's Attorney, of Chicago (Inge Fryklund, James E. Fitzgerald, and Brian Grossman, Assistant State's Attorneys, of counsel), for the People.

Judgment affirmed.

JUSTICE SCARIANO delivered the opinion of the court:

Defendant was convicted in a bench trial of possession of a stolen motor vehicle. He appeals, arguing that the State failed to prove ownership of the vehicle, an essential element of the offense, and that section 4-103(b) of the Illinois Vehicle Code (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1985, ch. 95 1/2, par. 4-103(b)), defining the offense of possession of a stolen motor vehicle, is unconstitutional.
