2018Although the plain-error doctrine allows us to reach unpreserved claims of error in certain circumstances (People v. Gumila, 2012 IL App (2d) 110761, ¶ 36 ), the burden is on the defendant to establish plain error, and, consequently, he forfeits such review when he does not argue for it (see People v. Hillier, 237 Ill. 2d 539, 545 (2010) (“A defendant who fails to argue for plain-error review obviously cannot meet his burden of persuasion.”)).
