State v. Rozell

Summary

The court held that Kansas had territorial jurisdiction over charges of insurance fraud and making a false information based on the defendant's out-of-state conduct because the conduct produced closely connected effects in Kansas. It rejected the lower courts' requirement that the Kansas consequence be an element of the charged offense and held that probable cause supported jurisdiction for both counts. The court reversed the district court and Court of Appeals and remanded for further proceedings; no separate opinions were filed.
