Evans v. State
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Appellant was found guilty of first-degree murder of a peace officer while the officer was engaged in official duties. Defendant was sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of release and ordered to pay restitution to the Crime Victims Reparations Board. Appellant later filed a motion to correct his sentence. The postconviction court denied the motion, concluding that it was untimely under Minn. Stat. 611A. 045(3)(b) because Appellant failed to challenge the restitution award within thirty days of receiving written notice of the amount of restitution requested. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the district court did not err in denying Appellant’s motion on the grounds of untimeliness.
