People v. Albano

The sole issue addressed by the majority in the instant appeal is whether the State’s evidence was sufficient to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant prescribed Valium outside the scope of regular medical treatment, in violation of section 312(h) of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act. (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1985, ch. 56½, par. 1312(h).) In my view, the State’s evidence amply demonstrated that the defendant prescribed Valium outside the course of regular medical treatment, and his conviction should be affirmed. Accordingly, I respectfully dissent.

It is beyond question or debate…
