Raymond SIWEK, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. The RETIREMENT BOARD OF the POLICEMEN'S ANNUITY & BENEFIT FUND, City of Chicago, et al., Defendants-Appellants.

Appellate Court of Illinois, First District, Third Division.

August 29, 2001.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

David R. Kugler, The Retirement Board of the Policemen's Annuity and Benefit Fund of the City of Chicago, for Appellants.

Law Offices of Thomas J. Pleines, Chicago (Thomas J. Pleines, of counsel), for Appellee.

Justice WOLFSON delivered the opinion of the court:

The question in this case is whether a retired Chicago police officer is entitled to receive his annuity and pension benefits despite being convicted of two felony drug offenses. The answer requires us to explore the relation or connection, if any, between the felonies and his service as a policeman. We conclude this former police officer is not entitled to benefits.
