Nuss Justices: Carol A. Beier, Dan Biles, Lee A. Johnson, Marla J. Luckert, Eric S. Rosen, Caleb Stegall The Kansas Supreme Court is the highest court in Kansas. It consists of seven justices, each of whom is selected by the governor from a list of three qualified individuals submitted by the Supreme Court Nominating Commission. After the first year in office, a justice is subject to a retention vote in the next general election. If a majority of electors votes to retain the justice, he or she remains in office for a term of six years. Justices are subject to a similar retention vote at the conclusion of each term. The justice who is senior in terms of continuous service is designated by the Kansas Constitution as the chief justice, unless he or she declines or resigns the position. The chief justice has general ad- ministrative supervision over the affairs of the court and of the unified judicial department of the state.

  • Appellate Practice Handbook
    KANSAS APPELLATE PRACTICE HANDBOOK 6TH EDITION KANSAS JUDICIAL COUNCIL Subscription Information The Kansas Appellate Practice Handbook is updated on a periodic basis with supplements to reflect important changes in both statutory law and case law. Your purchase of this publication automatically records your subscription for the update service. If you do not wish to receive the supplements, you must inform the Judicial Council. You may contact the Judicial Council by e-mail at [email protected], by telephone at (785) 296-2498 or by mail at: Kansas Judicial Council 301 SW 10th, Ste. 140 Topeka, KS 66612 © 2019 KANSAS JUDICIAL COUNCIL ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii PREFACE TO THE SIXTH EDITION This is the first edition of the Handbook since the advent of electronic filing of appellate cases. All prior editions, while containing some useful suggestions, are obsolete. With clear marching orders from our Supreme Court, all appellate attorneys must enroll and monitor their cases. Paper filing is now relegated to litigants that are unrepresented. Prompted by these massive changes we have consolidated some chapters and subjects and created new sections for electronic filing. But there is more to an appeal than just getting in the door. Scheduling, briefing, and pre- and post-opinion motion practice are dealt with. We sincerely hope that this work will be helpful to all who practice in this important area of the law. It is an attempt to open up the mysteries of electronic filing of appellate cases in Kansas. I must shout from the rooftops my praise for Christy Molzen with the Kansas Judicial Council, who has done all of the heavy lifting in putting this handbook together.

  • IN the SUPREME COURT of the STATE of KANSAS No. 119,315
    IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF KANSAS No. 119,315 STATE OF KANSAS, Appellee, v. BRENT J. CARTER, Appellant. SYLLABUS BY THE COURT 1. A jury instruction must be both legally and factually appropriate. An instruction on the defendant's theory of defense is factually appropriate if there is sufficient evidence, when viewed in the light most favorable to the defendant, for a rational fact-finder to find for the defendant on that theory. 2. Under K.S.A. 22-3203, multiple complaints against a defendant can be tried together if the State could have brought the charges in a single complaint under K.S.A. 22-3202(1). 3. K.S.A. 22-3202(1) permits joining multiple charges in a single complaint if the charges: (1) are of the same or similar character; (2) are part of the same act or transaction; or (3) result from two or more acts or transactions connected together or constituting parts of a common scheme or plan. 1 4. For the purposes of K.S.A. 22-3202(1), charges are connected together when: (1) a defendant provides evidence of one crime while committing another; (2) some of the charges are precipitated by the other charges; or (3) all of the charges stem from a common event or goal. Appeal from Sedgwick District Court; JEFFREY SYRIOS, judge. Opinion filed July 10, 2020. Affirmed. Ryan J. Eddinger, of Kansas Appellate Defender Office, was on the brief for appellant. Lesley A. Isherwood, assistant district attorney, Marc Bennett, district attorney, and Derek Schmidt, attorney general, were on the brief for appellee.

Marine, Consultant Douglas E. Crow, Principal Deputy Chief Amy Chang Lee, Assistant Chief Robert C. Dalton Merv Hamburg Gregory C.J. Lisa Melissa Marquez-Oliver David J. Stander Catherine M. Weinstock Cover Design by Linda M. Baer PREFACE This manual is intended to assist federal prosecutors in the preparation and litigation of cases involving the Violent Crimes in Aid of Racketeering Statute, 18 U.S.C. § 1959. Prosecutors are encouraged to contact the Organized Crime and Racketeering Section (OCRS) early in the preparation of their case for advice and assistance. All pleadings alleging a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1959 including any indictment, information, or criminal complaint, and a prosecution memorandum must be submitted to OCRS for review and approval before being filed with the court. The submission should be approved by the prosecutor’s office before being submitted to OCRS. Due to the volume of submissions received by OCRS, prosecutors should submit the proposal three weeks prior to the date final approval is needed. Prosecutors should contact OCRS regarding the status of the proposed submission before finally scheduling arrests or other time-sensitive actions relating to the submission. Moreover, prosecutors should refrain from finalizing any guilty plea agreement containing a Section 1959 charge until final approval has been obtained from OCRS. The policies and procedures set forth in this manual and elsewhere relating to 18 U.S.C.

  • KANSAS V. MARSH
    (Slip Opinion) OCTOBER TERM, 2005 1 Syllabus NOTE: Where it is feasible, a syllabus (headnote) will be released, as is being done in connection with this case, at the time the opinion is issued. The syllabus constitutes no part of the opinion of the Court but has been prepared by the Reporter of Decisions for the convenience of the reader. See United States v. Detroit Timber & Lumber Co., 200 U. S. 321, 337. SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES Syllabus KANSAS v. MARSH CERTIORARI TO THE SUPREME COURT OF KANSAS No. 04–1170. Argued December 7, 2005—Reargued April 25, 2006— Decided June 26, 2006 Finding three aggravating circumstances that were not outweighed by mitigating circumstances, a Kansas jury convicted respondent Marsh of, inter alia, capital murder and sentenced him to death. Marsh claimed on direct appeal that Kan. Stat. Ann. §21–4624(e) establishes an unconstitutional presumption in favor of death by directing impo- sition of the death penalty when aggravating and mitigating circum- stances are in equipoise. Agreeing, the Kansas Supreme Court con- cluded that §21–4624(e)’s weighing equation violated the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments and remanded for a new trial. Held: 1. This Court has jurisdiction to review the Kansas Supreme Court’s judgment under 28 U. S. C. §1257. That provision authorizes review of a State’s final judgment when a state statute’s validity is questioned on federal constitutional grounds, and it permits review even when the state-court proceedings are not complete where the federal claim has been finally decided and later review of the federal issue cannot be had, whatever the case’s outcome, Cox Broadcasting Corp.

  • In the Supreme Court of the State of Kansas
    IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF KANSAS No. 117,439 ALYSIA R. TILLMAN and STORM FLEETWOOD, Appellants, v. KATHERINE A. GOODPASTURE, D.O., Appellee. OFFICE OF ATTORNEY GENERAL DEREK SCHMIDT, Intervenor. SYLLABUS BY THE COURT 1. Determining whether a statute violates the Kansas Constitution is a question of law subject to unlimited review. 2. Section 5 of the Kansas Constitution Bill of Rights declares, "The right of trial by jury shall be inviolate." It applies to give the right to trial by jury on issues of fact so tried at common law as it existed at the time the Kansas Constitution was adopted, but no further. 3. K.S.A. 2020 Supp. 60-1906(a) does not violate section 5 of the Kansas Constitution Bill of Rights. 1 4. Section 18 of the Kansas Constitution Bill of Rights guarantees for all persons, for injuries suffered in person, reputation, or property a "remedy by due course of law, and justice administered without delay." It does not create rights of action. It preserves the right to remedy by due process of law for civil causes of action recognized as justiciable by the common law as it existed at the time the Kansas Constitution was adopted. 5. K.S.A. 2020 Supp. 60-1906(a) does not violate section 18 of the Kansas Constitution Bill of Rights. Review of the judgment of the Court of Appeals in 56 Kan. App. 2d 65, 424 P.3d 540 (2018).
