558 N.E.2d 489

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. ANTHONY L. CARTER, Defendant-Appellant.

Appellate Court of Illinois — First District (5th Division).

Opinion filed June 29, 1990.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Randolph N. Stone, Public Defender, of Chicago (Emily Eisner, Assistant Public Defender, of counsel), for appellant.

Cecil A. Partee, State's Attorney, of Chicago (Renee Goldfarb, Kenneth T. McCurry, and Angela Tisdale, Assistant State's Attorneys, of counsel), for the People.


Judgment affirmed.

JUSTICE LORENZ delivered the opinion of the court:

This appeal follows a bench trial in which defendant Anthony L. Carter was convicted of arson and aggravated arson (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1985, ch. 38, pars. 20-1(a), 20-1.1(a)). Defendant here contends the State failed to prove him guilty beyond a reasonable doubt because it did not show the fire resulted from defendant's criminal acts.

We affirm.
