Supreme Court of Kansas

State v. Trotter

April 30, 2021313 Kan. 365

Summary

The Kansas Supreme Court affirmed the district court’s denial of Christopher Trotter’s motion for sentence modification, holding that K.S.A. 21‑6628(c) provides no procedural vehicle and that the Alleyne and Soto decisions do not apply retroactively to his hard‑50 life sentence. Consequently, the court found no jurisdiction to modify the sentence.
