Dunkin v. State

MARK D. PFEIFFER, Judge.

Kimberly E. Dunkin appeals from the judgment of the Circuit Court of Moniteau County, Missouri (“motion court”), denying her amended Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief without an evidentiary hearing. Because we find that Dunkin’s voluntary waiver of her right to seek post-conviction relief in return for a reduced sentence precluded review of the merits of her motion, we dismiss her appeal and remand this matter to the motion court with directions to vacate its judgment and to dismiss Dunkin’s amended post-conviction Rule 29.15 motion.
