Illinois Supreme Court

Decided June 21, 1922

Illinois Supreme Court · decided 1922-06-21

<p>Criminal law—the Parole law is valid. The Parole law does not violate the provisions of either the State or Federal constitution. (People v. Connors, 291 Ill. 614, and People v. Simmons, 299 id. 201, followed.)</p>

Relies on People v. Connors

Judgment affirmed · Decided 1922-06-21

Mr. Chief Justice Thompson

¶1delivered the opinion of the court:

¶2Plaintiff in error pleaded guilty to an indictment charging robbery and was sentenced to the penitentiary in accordance with the provisions of the Parole law. His sole contention in this court is that the Parole law contravenes certain provisions of the State and Federal constitutions. This contention has been answered in earlier decisions, (People v. Connors, 291 Ill. 614; People v. Simmons, 299 id. 201;) and so the judgment of the criminal court is accordingly affirmed.

¶3Judgment affirmed.
