Appellant challenged the District Court’s denial of his petition for postconviction relief and its failure to appoint counsel to represent appellant at a restitution hearing. The state conceded that, in light of this court’s recent decision in State v. Maddox, 825 N.W.2d 140 (Minn. App. 2013), appellant was entitled to representation in the restitution proceedings. The Court of Appeals concluded that the District Court erred when it denied appellant’s request for counsel at his restitution hearing. Reversed and remanded.
