1. ““Tillman moved to modify his sentence. At the time of the modification hearing, the judge learned for the first time that Tillman had not been remanded to the custody of the Secretary of Corrections or referred to SRDC. The judge was informed at the modification hearing that, on the day of the sentencing, Missouri authorities were waiting at the Johnson County correctional facility to transport Tillman back to Missouri. Despite the judge’s directive, Tillman was inexplicably given to the Missouri authorities. Given this fact, no SRDC report was available to the judge.” 18 Kan. App. 2d at 557 .”
