Providing an exception to unauthorized practice of law under the Kansas consumer protection act for an employee of the judicial branch or a district court providing a standard form to a member of the public.

Summary

The proposal amends Kansas’ unauthorized practice of law statute to create a specific exception for judicial‑branch or district‑court employees who hand out a standard form that has been approved by the Supreme Court or related judicial bodies. Those employees would not be held liable if a member of the public enters incorrect information on the form. The change is intended to protect court staff while preserving consumer‑protection enforcement.
