A man who received a mandatory life sentence without the possibility of parole 30 years ago for a murder he committed as a juvenile should not have been ordered to pay for court costs associated with resentencing proceedings that were necessitated by the U.S. Supreme Court’s landmark rulings in Miller v. Alabama and Montgomery v. Louisiana.

A three-judge panel of the Pennsylvania Superior Court unanimously affirmed a York County judge’s resentencing of defendant Michael Lehman to 30 years to life in prison, but vacated the part of the trial court’s decision requiring Lehman to pay $15,000 in court costs.
