State v. Shump

Court of Appeals of Kansas

Decided May 11, 2018No. Nos. 116,956; 116,957Published

1Opinion of the Court

Buser, J.:

After entering into a plea agreement with the State, Thomas D. Shump II pled no contest to certain crimes in two separate criminal cases in exchange for the State's promise to recommend a controlling suspended sentence of 12 months in jail and 12 months' supervised probation. At sentencing, the district court declined to impose the agreed-upon sentence and instead imposed a controlling suspended sentence of 24 months with 12 months' supervised probation. Shump appeals, asserting that the State violated the terms of the plea agreement. We affirm the district court.
