PIERRE HARPER, Defendant-Appellant." ], "opinions": [ { "text": "PRESIDING JUSTICE FITZGERALD SMITH\ndelivered the opinion of the court:\nFollowing a bench trial, defendant-appellant Pierre Harper (defendant) was convicted of aggravated driving under the influence (aggravated DUI) and sentenced to 18 months\u2019 probation. He appeals, contending that his conviction cannot stand because he was charged pursuant to a statutory subsection which never took effect; alternatively, he contends that the trial court committed reversible error when it allowed evidence of his oral admission after the State failed to tender the statement to the defense during discovery. He asks that we reverse his conviction outrightly pursuant to his first contention on appeal or that we reverse and remand for a new trial pursuant to his second contention. For the following reasons, we affirm.\nBACKGROUND\nDefendant was charged pursuant to subsection (d)(1)(H) of section 11 \u2014 501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code (Code) (625 ILCS 5/11\u2014 501(d)(1)(H) (West 2006)), a provision originating from Public Act 94 \u2014 329, which was passed on July 26, 2005, and had an effective date of January 1, 2006. See Pub. Act 94 \u2014 329, eff. January 1, 2006. The section states:\n\u201c(d)(1) Every person convicted of committing a violation of this Section shall be guilty of aggravated driving under the influence of alcohol *** if:\n(H) the person committed the violation while he or she knew or should have known that the vehicle he or she was driving was not covered by a liability insurance policy.\u201d 625 ILCS 5/11 \u2014 501(d)(1)(H) (West 2006).\nOfficer Jaime Monsalvo testified that at 3:30 a.m. on January 14, 2006, he and his partner, Officer Jones, received a disturbance call and responded to 1118 South Albany in Chicago. Upon their arrival, Officer Monsalvo saw that a 1993 Mazda vehicle had collided into a parked Dodge vehicle, with both having sustained damage. Officer Monsalvo also saw defendant, who was standing on the sidewalk, and Albert Gross, the owner of the Dodge, yelling and arguing. Officer Monsalvo averred that he saw no one else on the scene at this time. After separating defendant and Gross, Officer Monsalvo approached defendant. He observed that defendant was unbalanced, was slurring his speech, and had a strong odor of alcohol on his breath.\nAt this point during his testimony, Officer Monsalvo stated that he began speaking to defendant, who told him that he had been driving the Mazda. Defense counsel objected, but the court overruled his objection. Officer Monsalvo continued his testimony, stating that he asked defendant if he had a driver\u2019s license and insurance, to which defendant responded that he had no insurance for the Mazda. Officer Monsalvo next asked defendant to submit to field sobriety testing, and defendant agreed; Officer Monsalvo performed three such tests and defendant failed each of them. Officer Monsalvo further testified that he then placed defendant under arrest and transported him to the police station to administer a Breathalyzer test.\nOn cross-examination, Officer Monsalvo testified that when he arrived at the scene and was attempting to assess the situation, defendant admitted to him that he had been driving the Mazda; however, defendant was first Mirandized only later at the police station, whereupon he invoked his right to remain silent. Officer Mon-salvo also stated that while he filled out some of the paperwork in this cause, his partner filled out the arrest report and, upon review, there was no mention in that or any other report that defendant had admitted to driving the Mazda.\nFollowing his testimony, defense counsel made an oral motion to suppress Officer Monsalvo\u2019s statement that defendant admitted to him at the scene that he was driving the Mazda, telling the court that he was not aware of defendant\u2019s statement until Officer Monsalvo had just testified to it, thereby creating surprise and a Miranda violation. The trial court considered the motion and denied it, holding that at the time defendant made the statement (i.e., as Officer Monsalvo arrived and began gathering information), he was not in a custodial state wherein Miranda would apply.\nThe State next presented a stipulation between the parties that defendant had submitted to a Breathalyzer test at the police station which showed his alcohol level at .262. The State also entered into evidence a certified copy of a vehicle abstract, as well as a certified title and registration, for the 1993 Mazda indicating that the vehicle belonged to defendant. Defendant did not object.\nFollowing a two-week continuance, the trial resumed with defense counsel making a motion to strike Officer Monsalvo\u2019s testimony regarding defendant\u2019s statement to him that he was driving the Mazda. Defense counsel told the court that, pursuant to his pretrial motion for discovery, the State had not tendered to him that statement but, rather, only the statement that defendant, upon being approached by Officer Monsalvo regarding his involvement in the accident, told him he did not have insurance. Defense counsel argued that, since defendant\u2019s admission that he was driving was not implicit in his statement that he did not have insurance, the cited testimony should be stricken. The court denied this motion, finding that defense counsel\u2019s argument went only to the weight, and not the admissibility, of the statement. The court reasoned that his statement about driving was \u201carguably\u201d implicit in his statement about insurance and, thus, it was an issue for the trier of fact to determine upon the parties\u2019 arguments. The court further commented that there was no surprise here, since defense counsel had been advised that Officer Monsalvo had spoken to defendant.\nGross testified that at approximately 3 a.m. on January 14, 2006, he awoke to a loud bang at 1118 South Albany. He looked out the window and saw that his Dodge, which was parked on the street outside his home, had been hit. He averred that he ran outside and thought he saw three men and one woman. He inspected his car and saw that it had been damaged by the Mazda. He asked who owned the Mazda, but no one responded. Gross further testified that police soon arrived and, as they began asking questions, someone went up to an officer and told him he had been driving the Mazda. Gross stated that after the officer asked for his driver\u2019s license and insurance, the man could not produce these but told the officer his name was Pierre and gave his address.\nThe State rested its case-in-chief. Defense counsel moved for a directed finding, which the trial court denied, and then rested its case as well. Following closing argument, the trial court asked to see exactly what had been tendered by the State to defense counsel during discovery regarding defendant\u2019s statement to Officer Monsalvo that he was driving the Mazda. After a pause in the proceedings, the court issued its decision. It began its colloquy by noting that the evidence showed defendant was at the scene of the collision, was very intoxicated at the time, and had failed the sobriety and Breathalyzer tests. The court mentioned that, even though \u201cthere is no specificity about the car in the record,\u201d further evidence proved defendant was the owner of the Mazda. Regarding the statement about driving, the court commented that while at the scene, Officer Monsalvo made inquiry of defendant regarding the collision and asked if he had insurance, \u201call *** under the understanding that [defendant] was the one that was driving the car.\u201d The court concluded that, while defendant\u2019s statement that he was driving was not documented \u201cas well as it might have been,\u201d the statement that he did not have insurance was tendered to defense counsel during discovery, as well as the fact that his statements regarding the collision were made to Officers Monsalvo and Jones. Accordingly, the court held that there was \u201cno question that [defendant] was driving while intoxicated and without insurance\u201d and issued a finding of guilt.\nDefense counsel filed a posttrial motion to reconsider his previous motion to suppress Officer Monsalvo\u2019s testimony regarding defendant\u2019s statement that he was driving or, alternatively, for a new trial. The court took the motion under advisement and, after examining the trial transcript, denied it. The court stated that, based on the evidence, there was \u201cno question\u201d that defendant was driving the Mazda and that his statement about not having insurance \u201cwas in reference to inquiries about driving a car that was involved in the accident.\u201d The court further explained that defense counsel\u2019s position on discovery was \u201cmisstated,\u201d since he was put on \u201cenough notice\u201d that defendant\u2019s statement about insurance made during his conversation with the officers at the scene would be used against him. The court sentenced defendant to 18 months\u2019 probation.\nANALYSIS\nI. Statutory Validity\nDefendant\u2019s first contention on appeal is that his conviction for aggravated DUI pursuant to section 11 \u2014 501(d)(1)(H) of the Code must be reversed because that section never took effect. He argues that there was an irreconcilable conflict between Public Act 94 \u2014 329, the underlying enactment of subsection (d)(1)(H), and Public Act 94\u2014 609, enacted later in time as an amendment to section 11 \u2014 501(d)(1)(F) and omitting any mention of subsection (d)(1)(H) and, accordingly, the last-in-time act must control, thereby rendering subsection (d)(1)(H) ineffective. Next, he claims that it was the intent of the General Assembly that a version of section 11 \u2014 501 not containing subsection (d)(1)(H) become law, as exemplified by Public Act 94 \u2014 963. Finally, defendant argues that because of this ambiguity, a rule of lenity should apply in his favor. We, however, disagree with each of these assertions.\nA. Public Acts 94 \u2014 329 and 94 \u2014 609\nFirst, we find no support for defendant\u2019s argument that subsection (d)(1)(H) of the Code never became effective because certain amendments to section 11 \u2014 501 conflicted irreconcilably.\nSection 6 of the Illinois Statute on Statutes addresses situations when the Illinois General Assembly passes multiple amendments to acts involving the same subject matter. See 5 ILCS 70/6 (West 2006). It states that, when this occurs, the acts \u201cshall be construed together in such manner as to give full effect to each Act except in case of an irreconcilable conflict.\u201d 5 ILCS 70/6 (West 2006). The statute describes that an \u201cirreconcilable conflict\u201d exists \u201conly if the amendatory Acts make inconsistent changes in the section as it theretofore existed.\u201d 5 ILCS 70/6 (West 2006). If there is an irreconcilable conflict, then the act \u201clast acted upon by the General Assembly is controlling to the extent of such conflict.\u201d 5 ILCS 70/6 (West 2006).\nThis has been the underlying principle in our state\u2019s case law as well. The court in People v. Benton summarized these rules of statutory construction clearly when it stated:\n\u201c[Wlhen inconsistent amendments to the same statute are adopted at the same session of the legislature, the later amendment in point of time controls. [Citation.] This rule becomes operative only if it is impossible to give effect to both amendments. Two acts passed at the same session of the legislature are not to be construed as inconsistent if it is possible to construe them otherwise. [Citation.]\u201d People v. Benton, 126 Ill. App. 2d 386, 390-91 (1970).\nIn describing the later-act effectiveness rule, the Benton court explained:\n\u201cFor a later act to operate as a repeal by implication of an earlier one, there must be such manifest and total repugnance that the two cannot stand together. [Citation.] It is only where there is such a clear repugnance between the acts that the provisions of both cannot be carried into effect that the later law must prevail. [Citation.]\u201d Benton, 126 Ill. App. 2d at 391.\nSee also People ex rel. Dickey v. Southern Ry. Co., 17 Ill. 2d 550, 555 (1959) (\u201cif the two enactments are capable of being construed so that both may stand, it is the duty of this court to so construe them\u201d). Ultimately, issues of statutory construction present questions of law that we review on a de novo basis. See O\u2019Casek v. Children\u2019s Home & Aid Society, 229 Ill. 2d 421, 436 (2008).\nQuite recently, the Third District Appellate Court of Illinois was confronted with the same situation presented instantly, as two defendants charged under subsection (d)(1)(H) of section 11 \u2014 501 of the Code argued the identical contentions defendant presents here. Because we find that case to be dispositive, we highlight it now.\nIn People v. Gonzalez, 388 Ill. App. 3d 1003 (2009), the defendants were charged with aggravated DUI under section 11 \u2014 501(d)(1)(H) for offenses committed after January 1, 2006. At trial, they argued on motions to dismiss that this subsection was not embodied in section 11\u2014 501, and the trial court agreed. On appeal, the defendants reasserted their arguments, specifically contending that portions of the statute were in irreconcilable conflict, resulting in subsection (d)(l)(H)\u2019s ineffectiveness and invalidity. The Gonzalez court, however, reversed and remanded. See Gonzalez, 388 Ill. App. 3d at 1005.\nThat court began with a concise history of the amendments to section 11 \u2014 501. The Illinois General Assembly enacted six public acts to this aggravated DUI statute, all effective January 1, 2006, including Public Acts 94 \u2014 329 and 94 \u2014 609. See Gonzalez, 388 Ill. App. 3d at 1005. Public Act 94 \u2014 329 amended the section by adding subsections (d)(1)(G) and (d)(1)(H); this latter subsection, as noted, created an aggravated DUI offense for those who drive drunk while not covered by liability insurance. See Gonzalez, 388 Ill. App. 3d at 1005-06. The act was approved by the Governor on July 26, 2005. See Gonzalez, 388 Ill. App. 3d at 1005. Meanwhile, Public Act 94 \u2014 609, passed later and amending section 11 \u2014 501(d)(1)(F) of the Code, provided that if a defendant was convicted of aggravated DUI involving a death, probation would not be available unless a trial judge determined that extraordinary circumstances warranted it. See Gonzalez, 388 Ill. App. 3d at 1006. Public Act 94 \u2014 609 did not contain or mention the newly enacted subsection (d)(1)(H); it was approved by the Governor on August 16, 2006. See Gonzalez, 388 Ill. App. 3d at 1005-06.\nBecause of Public Act 94 \u2014 609\u2019s failure to mention the new subsection (d)(1)(H), and because it was passed later in time than Public Act 94 \u2014 329, the Gonzalez defendants, identical to defendant here, argued that subsection (d)(1)(H) had been superseded and was not effective at the time they were charged. The reviewing court disagreed. Citing the same principles of statutory construction we have above, including section 6 of the Statute on Statutes and the rule of harmonizing enactments whenever possible, the Gonzalez court specifically framed the issue as \u201cwhether *** Public Act 94 \u2014 609\u2014a version of the DUI statute that did not reference subsection[ ] *** (d)(1)(H) \u2014 nullified Public Act 94 \u2014 329, or whether Public Act 94 \u2014 329 (which amended the DUI statute to include the relevant subsection[ ]) is also effective.\u201d Gonzalez, 388 Ill. App. 3d at 1005-06.\nThe Gonzalez court found that it was clear that Public Act 94\u2014 329, and thus subsection (d)(1)(H), was effective and not nullified by Public Act 94 \u2014 609. See Gonzalez, 388 Ill. App. 3d at 1005-07. The court noted that the legislature obviously created \u201ctwo separate and distinct changes to section 5/11 \u2014 501\u201d: the intent of Public Act 94\u2014 329 was to add another offense to aggravated DUI, namely, driving while drunk and not insured, while the intent of Public Act 94 \u2014 609 was to impose a sentence of imprisonment (save a determination by the trial court that probation is more appropriate) for a defendant convicted of aggravated DUI involving a death. Gonzalez, 388 Ill. App. 3d at 1006-07. As these in no way conflicted, and as the intention of the legislature in passing them was \u201cclear and consistent,\u201d the Gonzalez court held that the last-passed-act rule did not apply and both enactments could be harmonized, thereby reaffirming the validity of both acts. Gonzalez, 388 Ill. App. 3d at 1007.\nWe find the Gonzalez court\u2019s reasoning very informative and sound and, since the instant cause mirrors what occurred there, we hold that the same decision is merited here.\nAs further support for our conclusion, we note another recent and similar case decided by the Second District Appellate Court of Illinois: People v. Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d 964 (2008). While Maldonado did not specifically involve subsection (d)(1)(H), it did involve four defendants alleging the same challenges of irreconcilable conflict and invalidity as the defendants in Gonzalez and defendant here against subsection (d)(l)(H)\u2019s companion, subsection (d)(1)(G). That is, subsection (d)(1)(G) added the aggravated DUI offense of driving drunk without a license and was enacted at the same time as subsection (d)(1)(H) and pursuant to the same amendatory act: Public Act 94\u2014 329. See Pub. Act 94 \u2014 329, eff. January 1, 2006. Just as the defendants in Gonzalez and defendant in the instant cause, the defendants in Maldonado argued on appeal that subsection (d)(1)(G) never took effect because Public Act 94 \u2014 329 was superseded by the later-passed Public Act 94 \u2014 609, which never mentioned subsection (d)(1)(G), and that there was an irreconcilable conflict between the two rendering it impossible to construe them together. See Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 967.\nAs did the Gonzalez court, the Maldonado court disagreed with the defendants in every respect and held that Public Act 94 \u2014 609 did not supersede or repeal Public Act 94 \u2014 329 or subsection (d)(1)(G). See Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 973-75. Again, beginning with the principles of statutory construction and harmony, Maldonado examined the purposes behind each public act, reasoned that they were intended to make separate and distinct changes to section 11\u2014 501 and, accordingly, found that they could be given effect without any concern regarding inconsistency. See Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 968-75. Similar to the Gonzalez court, the Maldonado court noted that Public Act 94 \u2014 329 simply increased the penalties for certain violations by raising them to an aggravated DUI level {i.e., driving without a license (subsection (d)(1)(G)) and driving without insurance (subsection (d)(1)(H))), while Public Act 94 \u2014 609 \u201chad a narrower purpose\u201d and changed only that portion of the statute dealing with sentencing {i.e., imprisonment versus probation). Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 975. Ultimately, because these enactments \u201caffected different provisions of the statute,\u201d they each could be given effect since they were not inconsistent. Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 975; see also People v. Prouty, 385 Ill. App. 3d 149, 151-54 (2008) (challenge to validity of subsection (d)(1)(A) of section 11 \u2014 501 asserting that Public Act 94\u2014 609 made enactment ineffective by omitting language of prior amendment in later amendment could not stand since the two acts did not irreconcilably conflict); Dickey, 17 Ill. 2d at 552-56 (where first amendment to statute in Illinois School Code had different purpose than later amendment of same statute, such that neither was antagonistic or repugnant to each other, failure of later amendment to include prior amendment did not render prior amendment ineffective and both were to be given effect); see, e.g., O\u2019Casek, 229 Ill. 2d 421.\nBecause we have concluded, as did our sister appellate courts in the Third and Second Districts based on the closely related factual and argumentative cases of Gonzalez and Maldonado, that Public Act 94 \u2014 329 does not irreconcilably conflict with Public Act 94 \u2014 609, there is no reason to apply the last-enacted rule; subsection (d)(1)(H) was, indeed, in full effect at the time defendant here committed the crime for which he was charged and found guilty.\nB. Legislative Intent and Public Act 94 \u2014 963\nIn continuing his challenge to the validity of subsection (d)(1)(H), defendant alternatively argues that the legislature\u2019s failure to include or mention subsection (d)(l)(H)\u2019s language in Public Act 94 \u2014 604, along with its enactment of Public Act 94 \u2014 963 (the seventh amendatory act to section 11 \u2014 501), prove that the legislature intended Public Act 94 \u2014 329 to be a nullity. Again, we disagree.\n\u201c[I]n all cases of statutory construction, our primary objective is to ascertain and give effect to the intent of the legislature.\u201d Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 968. Generally, portions of an old law not repeated in a newer act amending that law are deemed repealed. See People v. Caraballo, 231 Ill. App. 3d 685, 687 (1992). However, in line with our principles regarding the harmonization of amendments, we are not confined to an act\u2019s literal language in determining the intent of the legislature but, rather, may consider the act\u2019s history and subsequent amendments. See Caraballo, 231 Ill. App. 3d at 688. Section 5 of the Statute on Statutes regarding amendatory acts states:\n\u201cIn construing an amendatory Act ***, matter printed in italics shall be construed as new matter added by the amendatory Act, and matter shown crossed with a line shall be construed as matter deleted from the law by the amendatory Act.\u201d 5 ILCS 70/5 (West 2006).\nSee also O\u2019Casek, 229 Ill. 2d at 445 (new matter in amendatory act is to be either underscored or in italics and deleted matter is to be shown with a crossed line; such action by our legislature \u201cplays an important role in discerning legislative intent\u201d).\nTurning once again to Maldonado, we note that the defendants there raised these same arguments regarding legislative intent and Public Act 94 \u2014 963 as proof that subsection (d)(1)(H) was not to be given effect. First, regarding legislative intent, the Maldonado court examined the text of Public Acts 94 \u2014 329 and 94 \u2014 609. When the legislature enacted Public Act 94 \u2014 329 to amend section 11 \u2014 501(d)(1), it wrote subsection (H) in italics, thereby signifying, pursuant to section 5 of the Statute on Statutes, new matter added to the statute. Public Act 94 \u2014 609 amending section 11 \u2014 501(d)(2), followed two days later; it did not include the new subsection (d)(1)(H) but, rather, set forth section 11 \u2014 501(d)(1) as it read before any amendment made by Public Act 94 \u2014 329.\nFrom this, we note, as did the Maldonado court, that primarily, subsection (d)(1)(H) was merely absent from the later amendment derived from Public Act 94 \u2014 609; it was not stricken out or crossed with any line and, thus, was not deleted, pursuant to section 5 of the Statute on Statutes. Moreover, as the Maldonado court pointed out, these acts were passed only two days apart, \u201csuggesting that the drafters of Public Act 94 \u2014 609 simply overlooked what had been added by Public Act 94 \u2014 329.\u201d Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 976 (this inference is more reasonable than one suggesting the legislators suddenly changed their minds but did not express this with more direct language or action). In addition, without any direct action, we would be faced with a repeal by implication, which can only occur where two amendments are repugnant to each other; we have already concluded that this is not the case here. See Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 976; see also O\u2019Casek, 229 Ill. 2d at 445.\nSecond, regarding defendant\u2019s additional source of \u201cproof\u2019 of the legislature\u2019s intent to invalidate subsection (d)(1)(H), namely, the enactment of Public Act 94 \u2014 963, we find, just as the Maldonado court did, that this argument is wholly misplaced. This seventh amendment to section 11 \u2014 501 was passed about one year after Public Acts 94 \u2014 329 and 94 \u2014 609 and amended sections 11 \u2014 501(j) and (k). Like Public Act 94 \u2014 609, it did not mention the new amendment of subsection (d)(1)(H) but, rather, restated the statute as it existed prior to Public Act 94 \u2014 329. However, the Maldonado court held that Public Act 94 \u2014 693 did not exhibit a legislative intent to invalidate subsection (d)(1)(H). We agree.\nMost importantly, Public Act 94 \u2014 963 affected a different and distinct portion of section 11 \u2014 501. That is, its objective was to amend the statute to expand the purposes for which DUI fines and fees could be used. See Pub. Act 94 \u2014 963, eff. June 28, 2006. It had no relevance to subsection (d)(l)(H)\u2019s criminalizing the lack of insurance, or to subsection (d)(l)(F)\u2019s new penalty provisions, for that matter. Thus, since the enactments affected different provisions of the statute, they were not inconsistent and could be given effect. See Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 975 (\u201c[bjecause the changes made by Public Act 94\u2014 329, Public Act 94 \u2014 609, and Public Act 94 \u2014 963 are not inconsistent, all three acts must be construed to give full effect to each act\u201d). Next, as the Maldonado court noted, a reading of Public Act 94 \u2014 963 shows that \u201cthe Public Act 94 \u2014 329 version of section 11 \u2014 501 of the Vehicle Code is set forth, in its entirety, in Public Act 94 \u2014 963\u201d and, thus, it does not conflict with, but incorporates, Public Act 94 \u2014 329\u2019s amendments. Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 975 (\u201c[t]hus, Public Act 94\u2014 963 does not conflict with, but incorporates, the amendments contained in Public Act 94 \u2014 329\u201d). Moreover, after examining the language and those portions of section 11 \u2014 501 repeated by Public Act 94 \u2014 963, the Maldonado court came to the conclusion that the legislature\u2019s intent behind this newer amendment was not to repeal the changes made by Public Act 94 \u2014 329 but, rather, to reinforce them. See Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 976 (\u201cPublic Act 94 \u2014 329 was *** an intermediate act and remained in force despite the later passage of\u2019 Public Act 94 \u2014 963).\nAll these factors, combined with the legislature\u2019s failure to physically cross out the new language of subsection (d)(1)(H) and the history outlined by the Maldonado court regarding each of the three public acts (see Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 977-78), certify our conclusion that neither the legislative discussions nor the passage of Public Act 94 \u2014 963 showed any intent, as defendant here claims, to invalidate subsection (d)(1)(H).\nC. Rule of Lenity\nDefendant\u2019s final argument regarding his contention that his conviction must be reversed due to the ineffectiveness of subsection (d)(1)(H) is that the rule of lenity should be applied in his favor. He asserts that, upon a determination that Public Act 94 \u2014 609 did not supersede Public Act 94 \u2014 329, the remaining public acts, in conjunction with these amendments, \u201ccreated fundamental ambiguities\u201d in section 11 \u2014 501 requiring us to reverse his conviction. Once again, we disagree.\nDefendant is correct that, when construing criminal statutes, the rule of lenity requires that any ambiguity must be resolved in a manner favoring the accused. See People v. Jones, 223 Ill. 2d 569, 581 (2006). However, when the legislature clearly intends the application of a criminal statute, the rule of lenity does not apply and does not excuse the enforcement of that statute. See People v. Hicks, 164 Ill. 2d 218, 222 (1995).\nTurning for a final time to Maldonado, wherein its defendants also argued for the application of the rule of lenity regarding their section 11 \u2014 501 convictions, we find that court\u2019s reasoning most exemplary. We have already determined that the legislature clearly intended to make a violation of driving without insurance part of the overall offense of aggravated DUI when it passed Public Act 94 \u2014 329. See, e.g., Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 980. We have also determined that the legislature clearly did not intend for either Public Act 94\u2014 609 or 94 \u2014 963 to repeal or supersede that amendment, which was embodied in subsection (d)(1)(H). See Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 980. \u201cAccordingly, because the legislative intent here is clear, there is no justification for applying the rule of lenity.\u201d Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 980, citing Hicks, 164 Ill. 2d at 222.\nII. Admission of Defendant\u2019s Statement\nDefendant\u2019s second, and final, contention on appeal is that, even were we to uphold the validity of the statute in question, his conviction must be reversed and remanded because the trial court committed serious error by allowing into evidence his alleged oral admission to driving the car involved in the collision. Defendant asserts that the State did not tender this statement to defense counsel during discovery as it was required to do and, because the only disputed element of the cause was whether defendant was driving, this created surprise and undue prejudice which denied him a fair trial.\nDuring his testimony, Officer Monsalvo stated that, upon arriving at the scene and observing defendant standing on the sidewalk yelling at Gross, he approached defendant and began asking him about his involvement in the accident. When Officer Monsalvo testified that defendant told him he was driving the Mazda, defendant objected; the court overruled this objection. Officer Monsalvo further testified that defendant told him he did not have insurance. Following this testimony, defendant moved to suppress Officer Monsalvo\u2019s statement that defendant admitted he was driving, but the trial court denied this, as well as defendant\u2019s subsequent motion to strike and posttrial motion to reconsider, ultimately concluding that, although the statement was not memorialized \u201cas well as it might have been,\u201d it was implicit in the statements tendered to defendant during discovery and the circumstances surrounding its making provided \u201cenough notice\u201d to him so as not to have created surprise or prejudice at trial.\nIllinois Supreme Court Rule 412(a) (ii) imposes upon the State the duty to disclose to defendant prior to trial as part of discovery \u201cany written or recorded statements and the substance of any oral statements made by the accused ***, and a list of witnesses to the making and acknowledgment of such statements.\u201d 188 Ill. 2d R. 412(a)(ii). This duty is mandatory and ongoing throughout the trial process. See People v. Bobo, 375 Ill. App. 3d 966, 974 (2007). If the State fails to comply, the trial court may order a variety of sanctions, including discovery of the previously undisclosed statement, a continuance, the exclusion of the evidence in toto, or some other remedy it sees fit. See Bobo, 375 Ill. App. 3d at 974, citing 134 Ill. 2d R. 415(g). What sanction is imposed depends on the circumstances presented in each individual cause and should retain the objective of accomplishing proper discovery and not the punishment of the State. See Bobo, 375 Ill. App. 3d at 974; see also People v. Walton, 376 Ill. App. 3d 149, 157 (2007); People v. Nettnin, 216 Ill. App. 3d 794, 799 (1991) (\u201cfailure to comply with discovery requirements does not, in all instances, necessitate a new trial [citation], and each case must be examined to determine whether the State\u2019s failure resulted in harmless error [citation]\u201d). \u201cThe sanction of excluding certain evidence is appropriate only in the most extreme situations and is disfavored.\u201d Walton, 376 Ill. App. 3d at 157.\nFactors to consider in determining whether a new trial is warranted due to a violation of Rule 412(a)(ii) are the closeness of the evidence presented, the strength of the undisclosed evidence, the likelihood that prior notice would have helped the defendant to discredit the evidence, and the willfulness of the State in failing to disclose the evidence during discovery. See Nettnin, 216 Ill. App. 3d at 799. Ultimately, the determination as to whether to impose a discovery sanction for a violation of Rule 412(a)(ii) and what that sanction should be lies within the trial court\u2019s sound discretion and will not be disturbed absent an abuse of that discretion. See Walton, 376 Ill. App. 3d at 157-58; accord Bobo, 375 Ill. App. 3d at 974 (\u201ctrial court\u2019s choice of sanction is given great deference and will only be disturbed by a showing of abuse of discretion\u201d).\nBased on our review of the record in the instant cause and, in particular, of the circumstances surrounding the statement at issue, we find that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying defendant\u2019s motions to exclude Officer Monsalvo\u2019s testimony regarding defendant\u2019s admission that he was driving.\nPrior to trial, the State disclosed to defendant that conversations were had between him and the officers involved in this cause, as well as the following statements: defendant was approached at the scene regarding his involvement in a traffic accident and defendant stated he did not have insurance. The State also disclosed that the witnesses to these statements were Officer Monsalvo and his partner, Officer Jones. Therefore, defendant knew that these statements could be brought out at trial and knew, as well, from which witnesses they would be elicited.\nAs the trial court found, and reiterated on the numerous occasions it dealt with defendant\u2019s motions to exclude and suppress, there was no inherent surprise or prejudice resulting from Officer Monsalvo\u2019s testimony that defendant admitted to him he was driving. To the contrary of such an assertion, we find the court\u2019s conclusion that this admission was inherent in the statements the State disclosed to defendant before trial to be quite reasoned and appropriate. The evidence shows that Officer Monsalvo immediately approached defendant upon his arrival at the scene of the collision and asked him about his involvement in an effort to gather information. Again, the State had disclosed this during discovery and, thus, defendant knew he had such conversations with police. This led to more information, with defendant telling Officer Monsalvo that he was driving the Mazda and, then, that he had no insurance. Clearly, defendant\u2019s statement about insurance was in reference to Officer Monsalvo\u2019s inquiries made to him at the scene about how he was involved \u2014 i.e., that, pursuant to his own admission, he had been driving. In accordance with the trial court, we too find the facts that the admission was made at the scene, that defendant was talking to Officer Monsalvo at the time specifically about his involvement in the accident, and that the State disclosed his statement that he had no insurance on the Mazda all combined to give enough notice to defendant that his admission that he was driving would be introduced at trial.\nObviously, as the trial court itself noted, defendant\u2019s admission was perhaps not documented as well as it might have been. However, as we have pointed out above, and as exemplified by several cases before our reviewing courts, substantial and not perfect compliance with Rule 412(a) is enough to adequately apprise the defendant of the statement in question so as to defeat a claim of surprise or prejudice. In fact, we have held that this is particularly true where, as here, the defendant had access to the statement or when the substance of the statement is contained in a police report that has been provided to him before trial pursuant to discovery. See People v. Burgos, 243 Ill. App. 3d 993, 1004 (1993) (in such cases, \u201c[tjechnical compliance with [Rule 412] may be excused,\u201d as \u201cthe purpose of the rule has been satisfied\u201d); accord People v. Brandon, 283 Ill. App. 3d 358, 363 (1996); People v. Miller, 190 Ill. App. 3d 981, 991 (1989). Ultimately, \u201c[t]he State is not required to make a transcript or memorandum of the defendant\u2019s oral statement\u201d but, rather, is only required to disclose the substance of the statement. Brandon, 283 Ill. App. 3d 358, 363 (1996). See, e.g., Brandon, 283 Ill. App. 3d at 363-64 (\u201cmarginally sufficient compliance\u201d with Rule 412 by State provided enough notice that the defendant\u2019s statement regarding threat of force would be introduced at trial, where State had tendered police report summarizing interview with witness who told police about the defendant\u2019s statement made to victim; though there could have been better method, this statement was \u201cfurnished to [the] defendant prior to trial and made him aware of the substance\u201d and, therefore, \u201cno Rule 412 discovery violation was committed\u201d); Burgos, 243 Ill. App. 3d at 1004 (the defendant\u2019s contention that new trial was warranted where State failed to disclose his oral statement that he was gang member could not stand where \u201cone could fairly conclude\u201d from language in disclosed police report describing his gang tattoos that the defendant could anticipate questions concerning this admission); Miller, 190 Ill. App. 3d at 990-91 (finding the defendant\u2019s discovery violation argument to be without merit where record showed State revealed substance of oral statements made by the defendant and his codefendants, and that oral statement of codefendant that defendant planned robbery was implicit therein, thereby providing enough notice to him to defeat claim of surprise or prejudice).\nJust as in Burgos, Brandon and Miller, we hold that, while perhaps there could have been a better memorial of defendant\u2019s admission that he was driving, the State\u2019s discovery disclosure to defendant that he was approached by Officer Monsalvo regarding his involvement in the accident and that he stated he did not have insurance was sufficient to provide him with notice that his admission of driving would be brought forth at trial and, thus, no Rule 412 violation occurred.\nEven were we to have found that the State had committed such a violation, a review of the applicable factors we have outlined above demonstrates that the trial court\u2019s decision to allow defendant\u2019s oral admission amounted to harmless error and would in no way have warranted reversal of his conviction, remand or a new trial. First, even placing defendant\u2019s admission that he was driving to the side, the evidence in the instant cause was not close. Defendant was present at the scene of the accident, yelling obscenities at the victim, Gross. The parties stipulated that defendant was quite drunk, having tested at a .262 breath alcohol level. Gross testified that the man who approached officers immediately upon their arrival at the scene told them his name was Pierre, that he had been driving the Mazda, and that he could not produce either his driver\u2019s license or any proof of insurance. Moreover, Officer Monsalvo testified that defendant was the only other person besides Gross at the scene of the accident when he arrived and that it was defendant to whom he gave the field sobriety tests, which he failed. In addition, the State presented a certified copy of a vehicle abstract, as well as a certified title and registration, for the 1993 Mazda indicating that the vehicle belonged to defendant. Defendant did not refute any of this evidence.\nNext, we do not find that defendant\u2019s oral admission about driving was sufficiently strong to have an effect on the weight of the evidence against him. There was abundant other competent and undisputed evidence satisfying the elements of the crime of which defendant was convicted. Again, Gross\u2019 and Officer Monsalvo\u2019s testimony, along with the Breathalyzer test results and the documentary evidence regarding the Mazda, are solid examples of this. And again, defendant presented no evidence to dispute any of this.\nThird, there is no indication that prior notice of defendant\u2019s admission that he was driving would have helped him to discredit the evidence. Particularly, defendant cross-examined Officer Monsalvo regarding this statement after the trial court denied his objection and was able to bring forth before the court the fact that Officer Monsalvo failed to record the statement in any report. Accordingly, defendant had ample opportunity to explain the statement or discredit the circumstances around it, as well as Officer Monsalvo\u2019s credibility. Since his defense, i.e., that he was not the driver, never changed even after Officer Monsalvo\u2019s testimony, we find it hard to believe prior notice would have changed his tactics.\nFinally, we find nothing in the record to demonstrate that the State willfully failed to disclose the statement to defendant during discovery. The State brought out the admission before the trial court early during trial and during its direct examination of Officer Mon-salvo, its first witness. It was not as if the State waited to present this evidence for the first time until rebuttal or closing argument, when defendant had no opportunity to dispute it. Nor was this a jury trial but, rather, a bench trial. See People v. Brown, 185 Ill. 2d 229, 247 (1998) (trial judge in bench trial is presumed to know law and consider only competent evidence). Moreover, defendant received a two-week continuance after the statement was presented and, thus, had the chance to investigate it as well as its maker, Officer Monsalvo.\nTherefore, after reviewing all these factors, we find that, even if an error were committed here in allowing defendant\u2019s oral admission that he was driving, it would have been harmless and would not merit the relief defendant seeks on appeal. See, e.g., Nettnin, 216 Ill. App. 3d at 799-800 (examining the four factors used to determine if new trial is warranted in Rule 412 violation claim and concluding that, if any error was present, it was harmless).\nCONCLUSION\nWe conclude that there is no support for either of defendant\u2019s contentions on appeal; section 11 \u2014 501(d)(1)(H) was valid and in full effect when he was charged with aggravated DUI for driving drunk while knowing the vehicle was not covered by insurance, and any error by the trial court in allowing his oral admission to police that he was driving did not warrant reversal and remand of his conviction.\nAccordingly, for the foregoing reasons, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.\nAffirmed.\nO\u2019MARA FROSSARD and TOOMIN, JJ., concur.\nWe note for the record that defendant in the instant case, again as defendants in Maldonado, also briefly argues that \u201cthere are numerous irreconcilable conflicts among all\u201d the amendments made to section 11 \u2014 501, as found in Public Acts 94 \u2014 110, 94 \u2014 113, 94 \u2014 114 and 94 \u2014 116, in addition to Public Acts 94 \u2014 329, 94 \u2014 609 and 94 \u2014 963. In a concise explanation, the Maldonado court found that this allegation could not stand since \u201cthese previous acts *** made separate and distinct changes to the Vehicle Code\u201d which were in no way inconsistent with Public Act 94 \u2014 329. Maldonado, 386 Ill. App. 3d at 980. We adopt this same reasoning here in relation to defendant\u2019s claim.\nIn this regard, we note that defendant\u2019s reliance on People v. Boucher, 62 Ill. App. 3d 436 (1978), and People v. Shegog, 37 Ill. App. 3d 615 (1976), is misplaced as their facts are not at all similar to those presented before us. The defendant in Boucher challenged the admission of an undisclosed statement and prevailed, but this was because the State waited to present it until rebuttal testimony at trial when the defendant could not counter it, the State referred to it frequently during closing argument, and the remaining evidence was close. See Boucher, 62 Ill. App. 3d at 440-42. In Shegog, the defendant prevailed on his discovery violation claim after he testified on his own behalf regarding the undisclosed statement, he presented evidence to dispute the State\u2019s case, and again, the evidence was otherwise close. See Shegog, 37 Ill. App. 3d at 618-19.
