Thuko v. State

Supreme Court of Kansas

Decided July 12, 2019No. 115662PublishedCited by 13 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

The opinion of the court was delivered by Johnson, J.:

*930 Fidelis K. Thuko seeks our review of the Court of Appeals' decision affirming the district court's summary denial of his second K.S.A. 60-1507 motion. He argues that the district court violated his due process rights when it failed to appoint counsel to represent him after requesting and receiving the State's response to his pro se motion. Thuko also contends that he is entitled to an evidentiary hearing on his motion based upon exceptions that would permit his untimely and successive filing. Finding no error, we affirm the lower courts.
