Terms Used In Kansas Statutes 74-7309

  • Board: means the crime victims compensation board established under Kan. See Kansas Statutes 74-7301
  • Evidence: Information presented in testimony or in documents that is used to persuade the fact finder (judge or jury) to decide the case for one side or the other.

If a person refuses to comply with an order under this act or asserts a privilege other than one arising from the attorney-client relationship to withhold or suppress evidence relevant to a claim, the board may make any just order, including denial of the claim, but may not find the person in contempt. If necessary to carry out any of its powers and duties, the board may petition the district court for an appropriate order, but the court may not find a person in contempt for refusal to submit to a medical or physical examination.
