A Kansas City attorney once convicted of killing his law partner has his law license back.

The Missouri Supreme Court announced Tuesday that it has reinstated the law license of Richard Buchli II.

He was convicted of killing his law partner, Richard Armitage, in 2002. A court set aside Buchli’s conviction six years ago after finding evidence was withheld at his trial.

Prosecutors dismissed the case last year, after a judge threw out all the state’s evidence.

Buchli will be on probation for three years. He is required to report quarterly to a probation “monitor” on the status of his law practice, and about any criminal or civil actions against him.

He also must undergo a mental health evaluation within 60 days.
