Lack of funds postpones civil cases in Kansas
In Wichita, civil jury trials are suspended as judges await $5.5 million in supplemental funding to pay jurors. Judge Patrick Kelly said trials may resume in about three weeks, with week to week planning. The funding hold affects civil cases but not criminal prosecutions, and delays may push a Topeka hearing on a speeding arrest case.
