THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. LESLIE WEST, JR., Defendant-Appellant.

Appellate Court of Illinois — Second District.

Opinion filed August 5, 1977.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Gerry Dondanville, State's Attorney, of Geneva (Phyllis J. Perko and Robert J. Anderson, both of Illinois State's Attorneys Association, of counsel), for the People.


Reversed and remanded.

We reverse.
