  1. ““K.S.A. 1992 Supp. 21-4603(4) requires a district court to modify a defendant’s sentence upon an unequivocal recommendation by TCF, unless the court makes certain findings on the record. See State v. Boomgaarn, 249 Kan. 673 , 822 P.2d 605 (1991); State v. Moon, 15 Kan. App. 2d 4 , 801 P.2d 59 (1990), rev. denied 248 Kan. 998 (1991). ‘Absent an unequivocal recommendation for modification by the [TCF], the court has discretion in modifying sentence and commits no error in refusing modification of sentence absent an abuse of that discretion.’ Moon, 15 Kan. App. 2d at 10 .””
