Illinois Supreme Court
Decided September 21, 1987No. 63082, 63539, 63540, 63541 consPublishedCited by 127 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Ward
The defendants in these consolidated appeals were individually charged with the offenses of criminal sexual assault and aggravated criminal sexual assault in violation of sections 12 — 13 and 12 — 14 of the Illinois Criminal Code of 1961 (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1985, ch. 38, pars. 12— 13, 12 — 14). In each case the circuit court dismissed the charges, holding that the statutes upon which the defendants were charged were unconstitutionally vague and overbroad. The State appealed each dismissal directly to this court under our Rule 603 (107 Ill. 2d R. 603), and we have consolidated the appeals.
