Q. If a previous DUI was in a different state over 10 years ago does it count for purposes of sentencing in Kansas?
A: K.S.A. 8-1567(i)(1) provides that for purposes of determining whether a conviction is a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th, the Court must count all convictions occurring on or after July 1, 2001. K.S.A. 8-1567(i)(3) states that a "conviction" includes any violation of law of in another state that would constitute an offense that is comparable to the Kansas DUI statute. K.S.A. 8-1567(j) provides, "for the purposes of determining whether an offense is comparable, the following shall be considered: (1) The name of the out-of-jurisdiction offense; (2) the elements of the out-of-jurisdiction offense; and (3) whether the out-of-jurisdiction offense prohibits similar conduct to the conduct prohibited by the closest approximate Kansas offense."
