Handy of Garden City, administrative judge in the 25th Judicial District, was publicly censured by the Kansas Supreme Court after the Commission on Judicial Qualifications urged discipline. The court found three canons violated, dismissed two counts, and ordered probation for two other lawyers. Handy faced ethics accusations including dual district and municipal judge roles, real estate dealings, a disputed deal, and alleged impropriety. He has been on leave since September 1992.
