Hawk bar owners fight state license revocation
The Hawk at 1340 Ohio, a popular KU bar, challenges a Kansas ABC ruling to revoke its liquor license after 17 minor-in-possession cases in three years, with some later dismissed. An appeal filed in Douglas County District Court argues minors drank with fake IDs and that staff did not knowingly permit it. The bar remains open during appeals, which could extend to higher courts.

Wittig seeks time served in bank fraud case appeal
Former Westar Energy chief executive David Wittig asks the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to vacate his 24 month bank fraud sentence and impose time served or a six month term. He served about 13 months in prison before release on bond. The appeal targets Judge Julie Robinson interpretation of guidelines and notes Wittig’s role as a customer, not a bank official, while a separate retrial for related charges is set for January.
