CASE ANNOTATIONS
1. Whether imposing imprisonment for presumed nonprison felony defendant committed on probation for felony constitutes departure examined. State v. Dillard, 20 Kan. App. 2d 660, 663, 890 P.2d 1248 (1995).
2. Attempted rape of preteen alone not significantly different from usual conduct associated with statutory rape to justify departure. State v. Zuck, 21 Kan. App. 2d 597, 601, 904 P.2d 1005 (1995).
3. Appellate standard of review for downward durational departure sentence is abuse of discretion. State v. Favela, 259 Kan. 215, 219, 224, 911 P.2d 792 (1996).
4. Excessive brutality of defendant provided separate and independent reason for durational departure. State v. Hunter, 22 Kan. App. 2d 103, 105, 107, 911 P.2d 1121 (1996).
5. Court not required to state reasons for refusing to depart from imposing a presumptive sentence. State v. Windom, 23 Kan. App. 2d 429, 430, 431, 932 P.2d 1019 (1997).
6. Firing gun during aggravated assault not per se excessive brutality; sentencing departure not supported by substantial and compelling reason. State v. Eisele, 262 Kan. 80, 83, 936 P.2d 742 (1997).
7. "Excessive brutality" finding allows departure from presumptive guidelines; term not analogous to "heinous, atrocious or cruel." State v. Jackson, 262 Kan. 119, 137, 936 P.2d 761 (1997).
8. Departure sentence justified where defendant committed crimes while on supervised parole and lied on court affidavits. State v. Mitchell, 262 Kan. 434, 445, 939 P.2d 879 (1997).
9. Departure sentence for nonbase conviction exceeding double the presumptive sentence in violation of (b)(2) reversed. State v. Hernandez, 24 Kan. App. 2d 285, 290, 944 P.2d 188 (1997).

12. Trial court imposition of downward departure remanded for resentencing based on judge's partiality towards defendant. State v. Sampsel, 268 Kan. 264, 271, 997 P.2d 664 (2000).

15. Mentioned; because state conviction was prior to June 26, 2000, court would overrule objections relating to prior convictions. U.S. v. Young, 557 F. Supp. 2d 1216, 1224 (2008).
16. Mentioned; conviction under K.S.A. 21-4704 not a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year. U.S. v. Hill, 512 F.3d 1277, 1281, 1282 (2008).
