State v. Allen
Annotate this Case
Katrina Allen pleaded guilty to attempted possession of methamphetamine pursuant to a plea agreement but did not appear for her scheduled sentencing hearing as ordered pursuant to the plea agreement. Allen eventually appeared in court, but the district court released the State from its plea obligation to recommend probation at sentencing. The court of appeals affirmed. Allen appealed, arguing that the district court erred in releasing the State from its obligations because she substantially complied with her obligations under the plea agreement. The Supreme Court affirmed without reaching the merits of Allen's argument, as Allen failed to address a dispositive procedural holding of the court of appeals in her petition.
