Supreme Court of Kansas

State v. Union

August 9, 2024553 P.3d 320

Summary

The court held that the restitution award for the nursing home's unpaid bill was unsupported because the State did not prove that Union's crime caused the bill or its nonpayment. It affirmed the restitution awarded to Miller because Union's no contest plea established the charged value element that he took at least $25,000, which supplied substantial competent evidence for the award. The judgments below were therefore affirmed in part and vacated in part.
