Illinois Supreme Court

Decided March 22, 1963No. 36910PublishedCited by 11 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Daily

Defendant, Ernest Deweese, pleaded guilty to two indictments charging him with separate crimes of burglary and was thereafter sentenced by the criminal court of Cook County to concurrent terms of five to ten years in the penitentiary. He prosecutes this writ of error for review contending that the court erred in denying a motion to suppress certain evidence; that his plea of guilty was never accepted by the court; that a motion for a change of venue should have been granted; and that certain prior convictions were improperly proved at the hearing in aggravation and mitigation.
