Idaho Supreme Court

Skehan v. ISP

January 3, 2024

Summary

The Idaho Supreme Court affirmed the district court's decision upholding the Idaho Central Sex Offender Registry's determination that Skehan's Oregon conviction was substantially equivalent to an Idaho offense requiring registration. The court held that Skehan failed to preserve his due process claim, failed to provide an adequate record or sufficient argument for certain challenges, and did not show that the Registry acted arbitrarily, capriciously, or outside its authority. The court also awarded the Registry appellate costs and attorney fees.
