Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by Defendant Carol Priest, who had completed one DUI diversion program and pled nolo contendere to a second DUI charge, was sentenced as a first-time DUI offender because the record of the prior diversion agreement failed to show that she had been advised of her right to legal counsel or that she had given a valid waiver of that right. The State appeals the sentencing pursuant to K.S.A. 22-3602(b)(3). On October 19, 1983, the defendant, Carol A. Priest, entered a diversion program with the City of Topeka in lieu of further criminal proceedings on a charge of driving under the influence. At that time, Priest did not have an attorney, and there is no indication in the record that she waived her right to an attorney when entering into the diversion agreement.
