    Holding that section 2-1203 does not require specificity despite judicial dictum stating to the contrary

    Nevertheless, even after Cates, cases from both this district and others have cited with approval the judicial dicta of Andersen and Beck that specificity is required in a postjudgment motion in a nonjury case. See, e.g., J.D. Marshall International, Inc. v. First National Bank, 272 Ill. App.3d 883, 888, 651 N.E.2d 518, 521 (1st Dist. 1995); Droen v. Wechsler, 271 Ill. App.3d 332, 334, 648 N.E.2d 981, 983 (1st Dist. 1995); Sho-Deen, Inc. v. Michel, 263 Ill. App.3d 288, 291-93, 635 N.E.2d 1068, 1071-73 (2nd Dist. 1994); In re Marriage of Sisk, 258 Ill. App.3d 388, 391, 630 N.E.2d 1289, 1292 (4th Dist. 1994). In view of our analysis of the judicial dicta of Andersen and Beck and our determination that they were erroneous, we respectfully disagree with any endorsement of the dicta contained in these cases.
