Kline Gets to Keep Abortion Records

Despite Harsh Words, Kline Gets to Keep Abortion Records

 

In a 40-page ruling Friday, the Kansas Supreme Court slammed Johnson County District Attorney Phill Kline for his handling of an ongoing abortion case. But in the end, after justices called Kline's actions inexcusable and accused him of not having respect for the law, he got what he wanted. Kline gets to keep medical records of women treated at Planned Parenthood in Overland Park — the basis of his pending 107-count criminal case against the clinic. He only has to provide copies of all investigative materials to the Kansas attorney general. They're due next Friday.
