The opinion of the court was delivered by JOHNSON, J.:

Robert Henry Lackey II appeals from the trial court's summary denial of his petition for DNA testing pursuant to K.S.A. 21-2512. Because we hold that Lackey's petition satisfied the criteria of K.S.A. 21-2512(a) and (c), we reverse and remand for an evidentiary hearing with appointed counsel.
