Meyer could have then walked to a phone booth, called, waited until 6:25 a.m., and then walked into the store to collect his personal belongings. This is entirely consistent with Meyer failing to mention the note, with Bushor and Pickett not seeing it, and with the note being dated June 30.

Stringer (1972), 52 Ill. 2d 564, 289 N.E.2d 631 (<HOLDING>). SENTENCE Meyer’s second allegation of error

D: holding that a potential conflict was present necessitating reversal of defendants conviction
B.
