Kansas judicial department grilled over pay and policies
Senate subcommittee pressed James R. James, Kansas Judicial Administrator, on why the Unified Judicial Department lacks a standardized pay plan and personnel policies for about 2,000 employees. He said a plan is in the works but not mandated by law pending full state funding, and hopes for a personnel program soon. James opposed governor review of the judicial budget, arguing the governor should not oversee court finances. The Ways and Means panel examined the FY1978 budget of $8.5 million amid pay and policy questions.
