Supreme Court grants new trial in Kansas killing spree case
The Kansas Supreme Court ordered James C. Hunter a new trial in the February 1985 northwest Kansas killing spree after finding the trial judge should have instructed on compulsion. Hunter argued he acted under fear for his life while with lead defendant Daniel Remeta, with victims including two Leval elevator workers and a Thomas County undersheriff among the dead and wounded.

Kansas Supreme Court bans DUI blood warrants after refusals
The Kansas Supreme Court held in a 6-1 decision that state law does not allow search warrants to compel blood samples from motorists who refuse breath or urine tests after DUI arrests. Justice Kay McFarland wrote the majority, noting the 1986 DUI testing revisions lacked such authorization and that only relevant blood results from other crimes could be admitted. Justice Tyler Lockett dissented without explanation.

Kansas Supreme Court strikes down collateral source rule law
The Kansas Supreme Court invalidated a 1986 law allowing evidence of insurance payments in medical malpractice trials. In a 4-3 decision, the court ruled the rule unconstitutional for denying victims full recovery and favoring negligent providers. The ruling also issued a temporary halt on district rulings setting indigent defense pay rates, with judges deeming $26.50 hourly insufficient versus a $68 rate.
