In People v. Martinez, 372 Ill. App. 3d 750, 867 N.E.2d 24, 310 Ill. Dec. 711 (2007), the defendant was sentenced to 20 years' imprisonment for armed robbery. Martinez, 372 Ill. App. 3d at 760. A codefendant was sentenced to 10 years' imprisonment for armed robbery and 40 years' imprisonment for murder. Martinez, 372 Ill. App. 3d at 760. The appellate court determined that, because the codefendant received an additional sentence for murder, "the two defendants were not similarly situated." Martinez, 372 Ill. App. 3d at 760.
