People v. Donley

In May 1997, the trial court found defendant, Robert V Donley, guilty of first degree murder (720 ILCS 5/9 — 1(a)(1), (a)(2) (West 1996)) after a bench trial and later sentenced him to 45 years in prison. He appealed, and this court affirmed his conviction and sentence, except for our directions that the court (1) modify his sentencing order to reflect that the truth-in-sentencing statute then in effect would not apply to him and (2) issue a corrected judgment and sentencing order granting defendant 235 days’ credit for time served.
