Court hears challenge to Hutchinson civil rights powers
Hutchinson Human Relations Commission appeals a Reno County district court ruling that its ordinance exceed state police powers. The Kansas Supreme Court heard arguments on whether local home rule can create human relations bodies despite KCCR authority, with multiple civil rights groups backing Hutchinson and Midland Credit defended by Lane Cranhardt. The two appeals probe local agency status and due process issues amid broader civil rights implications.
