Appeal from the Circuit Court of Du Page County. Honorable Ronald B. Mehling, Judge, Presiding. Appeal from the Circuit Court of Du Page County. Honorable Robert J. Anderson, Judge, Presiding. The trial court granted this petition.
Defendant now appeals both actions.
He further asserts that the revocation of his probation cannot stand, as it is based solely upon his controlled-substance conviction. For the following reasons, we reverse and remand. Defense counsel moved for a fitness examination, and the court found that a bona fide doubt existed regarding defendant's fitness. The trial court appointed Dr. Syed Ali, a psychiatrist, to conduct an examination of defendant. Dr. Ali prepared a three-page report, which stated defendant could assist in his defense, understood the nature of a trial and the roles of the participants in a trial, could manage his behavior during a trial, and had the capacity to testify relevantly.
