Plea Deal Rights Protection
Summary
Accepting a plea deal does not waive your constitutional rights, including due process and protection against cruel punishment. If you believe your rights have been violated, you can file a complaint, appeal a decision, or pursue a civil lawsuit. Discovery timelines in Kansas vary by case type, with criminal cases requiring evidence disclosure before trial and civil cases following court schedules. A conflict of interest may arise if detectives involved in your victim case also handle your criminal case, potentially affecting fairness. Discuss concerns with your attorney or judge.Full Conversation
