1Opinion of the CourtJustice Bowman

Following a stipulated bench trial, defendant, Maria D. Montoya, was convicted of two counts of identity theft (720 ILCS 5/16G— 15(a)(1) (West Supp. 2003)). The trial court sentenced defendant to 30 months’ probation and 100 hours of public service work and imposed a $500 fine. On appeal, defendant argues that: (1) the evidence is insufficient to sustain her convictions of identity theft, and (2) she is entitled to a $5 credit against her fine. We affirm defendant’s convictions but modify the sentencing order to reflect the $5 credit.
