Supreme Court of Kansas

State of Kansas, Appellee v. Mark T. Salary, Appellant.

March 29, 2019309 Kan. 479

Summary

The court affirmed Salary's convictions and hard-25 sentence after concluding that his motion to dismiss raised claims that were previously decided or could have been raised on his first direct appeal. It also declined to consider his ineffective-assistance claims because they were raised for the first time on appeal and depended on unresolved factual issues, and it deemed his exculpatory-evidence claim waived for inadequate briefing. Any error in limiting his allocution was harmless because the sentencing court imposed the only available sentence.
