1Opinion of the CourtJustice Hutchinson

¶ 1 In these consolidated cases, the State appeals from the judgment of the circuit court of Lake County dismissing the charges of knowingly possessing a hypodermic syringe ( 720 ILCS 635/1 (West 2016) ) against defendants, Nicole E. Fiumetto and Joclyn E. Hall, and dismissing the charge of possessing drug paraphernalia ( 720 ILCS 600/3.5(a) (West 2016) ) against Hall. Because the trial court correctly dismissed the drug-paraphernalia charge but erred in dismissing the hypodermic-syringe charges, we affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand.
