Providing that certain legal violations relating to victims of crime are not grounds for appeal in a criminal case.

Summary

The proposal amends Kansas law to say that if a victim’s rights—like notification or access to services—are not fully met, that shortcoming cannot be used to appeal a conviction or sentence. It also updates the list of rights owed to crime victims and repeals the previous version of the statute. The measure did not pass and died in committee.
