Case Style:
State of Kansas v. Tyler Joe Mossor
Case Number: 126,322
Judge: Christopher M. Magana
Court: District Court, Sedgwick County, Kansas
Plaintiff's Attorney: Sedgwick County Kansas District Attorney's Office
Defendant's Attorney:
Description:
Wichita, Kansas postconviction relief criminal defense lawyer represented the Defendant.
Tyler Joe Mossor appeals the district court's denial of his postsentence motion to withdraw his guilty plea, arguing he demonstrated manifest injustice from his plea counsel's error and because he was coerced into accepting the plea agreement. Mossor failed to carry his burden to demonstrate the district court abused its discretion in denying his motion. First, Mossor failed to preserve his claim of plea counsel error, and second, the plea agreement included some benefits-albeit minimal-for Mossor. However, Mossor correctly argues that, to the extent the district court construed his
motion to withdraw his plea to constitute or include a K.S.A. 60-1507 motion for ineffective assistance of counsel, the district court erred.
Outcome: Affirmed in part and reversed in part.
