The IL App Crt has granted my motion to vacate their order compeling me to pay for and file the transcripts as an indigent person for purpose of appeal due to the fact that their order was issued prematurely. The States Atty has agreed to copy my set of transcripts (self numbered and compiled) and file them with the clerk. Now the appeal can proceed. This proves the Cook County States Atty and IL App Crt condone & aid and abet the court reporter in defying a court order to prepare and file a set of transcripts with the clerk. This is a violation of IL S Ct rules and a violation of stare decisis as the US S Ct has ruled that IL must follow its rules and guarantee a free transcript for appeal to indigent defendants or this denies due process and equal protection. See: Griffin v. Illinois, 351 U.S. 12, 19 (1956)

The IL App Crt granted the States motion to compel me, an indigent defendant who is appealing a wrongful criminal conviction to pay for and file the transcripts. The court refuses to enforce the trial court order for free transcripts to be FILED BY THE COURT REPORTER. The Court is defying US Supreme Crt holdings requiring free transcripts for indigent appeals as necessary to uphold constitutional rights to due process and equal protection. The IL App Court is snubbing its nose at IL law that requires free transcripts for indigent defendants. The IL Supreme Court has also refused to uphold my right to the transcripts so now I have no choice but to request certiorari form the US Supreme Court or an injunction from the Fed Dist Court.
