WICHITA, Kan. (AP) The ruling that struck down the states proof-of-citizenship voter registration law leaves Kansas potentially on the hook to pay attorneys fees and costs for the winning side.
U.S. District Judge Julie Robinson granted Monday a joint request asking her to hold off awarding all fees and related expenses until appeals have been exhausted.
The parties contend a final amount will depend on the time spent on the appeal. It also notes attorneys are still verifying Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobachs compliance with the latest ruling.
