In
supreme court selection, the bar has more power in Kansas than in any
other state. This extraordinary bar power gives Kansas the most elitist
and least democratic supreme court selection system in the country.
While members of the Kansas bar make several arguments in defense of the
extraordinary powers they exercise under this system, these arguments
rest on a one-sided view of the role of a judge.
Judicial Selection, by Stephen Ware, a law professor at KU, in Lawrence, Kansas.
