Courts decision in cemetery case favors both sides
A district court ruling in a public interest suit against private cemetery associations upholds parts of both sides. It finds state laws on perpetual care funds unconstitutional for vault and grave market sales while requiring 10 percent deposits for care on lot sales and imposing 60 days to show correction or face injunction on defendants including Norman L. Anderson and nine Kansas associations. The decision names Greenlawn Memorial Park, Fort Hays Memorial Gardens, and Restlawn Garden of Memories as affected not-for-profit groups to be converted to for-profit status. Compliance will require charter changes and a $10 annual fee for for-profit entities.
