People v. Reyes

Summary

The Illinois Supreme Court affirmed the denial of Reyes’s petition to revoke or modify his fines. It held that the procedural rules governing section 2-1401 petitions, including the 30-day notice period, do not apply to petitions under section 5-9-2; that section 5-9-2 permits revocation or modification only of discretionary fines imposed under article 9, subject to its statutory exception; and that the circuit court therefore did not abuse its discretion in denying relief.
