The PEOPLE of the State of Illinois, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Lorna EDEN, Defendant-Appellee. The PEOPLE of the State of Illinois, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Brook JENKINS, Defendant-Appellee.

Appellate Court of Illinois, Fourth District.

June 24, 1993.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Thomas J. Brown, State's Atty., Pontiac, Norbert J. Goetten, Director State's Attys. Appellate Prosecutor, Springfield, Robert J. Biderman, Deputy Director, Linda Susan McClain, Staff Atty., for plaintiff-appellant.

Carey J. Luckman, Pontiac, for defendant-appellee.


Justice KNECHT delivered the opinion of the court:

The State appeals from the grant of defendants' motions to suppress evidence seized from their home. The Livingston County trial judge granted the motions because there were no exigent circumstances to warrant the police officers' unauthorized entry into defendants' home. The State contends this ruling must be reversed. We disagree and affirm.
