People v. Precupgreen2 sentences2025However, the fact that a forfeited error affected a substantial right does not automatically grant plain-error review; rather it “merely satisfies the prerequisite that the error must affect a substantial right before plain error review is even considered.” Id. ¶ 67. “ ‘Before plain error can be considered as a means of circumventing the general waiver rule, it must be plainly apparent from the record that an error affecting substantial rights was committed.’ ” Id. (quoting People v. Precup, 73 Ill. 2d 7, 17 (1978)). 2025“Once it is determined that the error affected a substantial right, the reviewing court may then proceed in determining whether the error is excusable ***.” Id. (citing People v. Heron, 215 Ill. 2d 167, 185 (2005)). ¶ 31 “The first step in a plain-error analysis is to determine whether a clear and obvious error occurred. [Citation.] If a clear and obvious error occurred, we then consider whether either of the two prongs of the plain-error doctrine has been satisfied.” (Emphases added.) People v. Henderson, 2017 IL App (3d) 150550, ¶ 37 . | 2 | 2 |

People v. Hatterygreen1 sentence1991Although courts have characteristically applied the Strickland/ Cronic presumption of unreliability to criminal trials where defense counsel openly and unequivocally concedes the defendant’s guilt against the defendant’s wishes (see Hattery, 109 Ill. 2d at 462-65 (and cases cited therein)), the Supreme Court’s language does not make a formal concession a prerequisite to a presumption of prejudice. | 1 | 1 |
