Case Style:
State of Kansas v. David Lawrence Smith
Case Number: 126,800
Judge: George Sonntage
Court: District Court, Atchison County, Kansas
Plaintiff's Attorney: Atchinson County Kansas District Attorney's Office
Defendant's Attorney:
Description:
Atchison, Kansas aggravated indecent liberties with a child criminal defense lawyer represented the Defendant.
David Lawrence Smith was convicted of three counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child. In 2016, Smith filed his first K.S.A. 60-1507 motion. This court affirmed the district court's denial of that motion and declined to review the merits of Smith's sufficiency of the evidence claim partly because he had failed to include trial transcripts in the record on appeal. We now review Smith's second K.S.A. 60-1507 motion, which alleges in part that his first 60-1507 counsel was ineffective for failing to attach trial transcripts.

Outcome: We affirm the district court's summary dismissal of this motion as untimely.
