View this case - free

View this case - free

State v. Parker, No. 92,541, SUPREME COURT OF KANSAS, December 8, 2006, Opinion Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Under Fourth Amendment and Kan. Const. Bill Rights § 15, defendant was illegally detained when there was insufficient evidence to establish reasonable suspicion for stop. Thus, his consent to search was not voluntary and cocaine had to be suppressed. Without the cocaine, the evidence was insufficient to support his possession of cocaine conviction.

Yount v. Deibert, No. 93,726, SUPREME COURT OF KANSAS, December 8, 2006, Opinion Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: A grant of summary judgment in favor of the decedent's friends in the decedent's mother's wrongful death action was improper because there appeared to have been sufficient circumstantial evidence that created a question of fact concerning causation. A factfinder could have concluded that the friends' actions more likely than not caused the fire.
