PEOPLE of the State of Illinois, Petitioner-Appellee, v. Richard A. BAILEY, Respondent-Appellant.

Appellate Court of Illinois, Third District.

Rehearing Denied September 26, 1994.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Verlin R. Meinz (argued), Office of State Appellate Defender, Ottawa, for Richard A. Bailey.

John X. Breslin, Deputy Director, State's Attys. Appellate Prosecutor, Ottawa, Edward Danner, Fulton County State's Atty., Lewistown, Judith Z. Kelly (argued), States' Attys. Appellate Prosecutor, Ottawa, for People.


Justice McCUSKEY delivered the opinion of the court:

The circuit court of Fulton County found the respondent, Richard A. Bailey, to be a sexually dangerous person and ordered him to be confined in the Illinois Department of Corrections (IDOC) until found to be no longer sexually dangerous. He appeals the trial court's order. We reverse and remand because we find the respondent was denied his constitutional right to the effective assistance of counsel.
