People v. Brant

PRESIDING JUSTICE ZENOFF

delivered the opinion of the court:

Following a bench trial on January 12, 2007, defendant, Krista A. Brant, was convicted of criminal trespass to a residence (720 ILCS 5/19 — 4(a)(2) (West 2006)). On March 7, 2007, the trial court denied defendant’s motion for a new trial or a judgment of acquittal and sentenced her to 24 months’ probation. Defendant appeals, 1 arguing that the State failed to prove her guilty beyond a reasonable doubt and that the trial court erred in not allowing her attorney to make a closing argument. For the reasons that follow, we affirm.
