Supreme Court to weigh Kansas gambling law dispute
The Kansas Supreme Court will handle the lawsuit over a new gambling framework as private developers run day to day operations under state contracts. Gov. Sebelius and Morrison supporters differ on delays and potential constitutional challenges, with Kinzer noting detailed contract review may come from district court. Morrison argues the law may not give the state enough control to own gambling activities.
