Supreme Court of Kansas

State v. Eubanks

August 26, 2022316 Kan. 355

Summary

The Kansas Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Appeals’ finding that the district court’s restitution order was not an illegal sentence, held that the appellate panel erred in ordering a new journal entry to label restitution as a condition of postrelease supervision, and affirmed that the plea agreement required restitution to both victims, including Ditch Diggers. The Court based its rulings on a plain‑meaning reading of the restitution statutes and contract principles governing plea agreements.
