Appellate Court of Illinois, Fourth District.

Decided March 3, 1994.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Daniel D. Yuhas (argued), Deputy Defender, Office of the State Appellate Defender, Springfield, for defendant-appellant.

Justice STEIGMANN delivered the opinion of the court:

The sole issue presented by this appeal is whether the trial court can impose a consecutive sentence upon a defendant who admitted to a petition to revoke his probation when the court did not admonish him at the time of his admission of the possibility of a consecutive sentence. We hold that the court may not impose consecutive sentences under these circumstances.
