Forms Required in a Child in Need of Care Proceeding

The Kansas Supreme Court accepted public comment on proposed amendments to Supreme Court Rule 174: Forms Required in a Child in Need of Care Proceeding. 

Rule 174 requires certain Kansas Judicial Council forms to be used when entering orders in child in need of care cases.

The proposed amendments expand the type and number of forms required. They also require the   judicial administrator to adopt standard operating procedures to collect data and the Supreme Court Task Force on Permanency Planning to approve any new or modified Kansas Judicial Council forms created under this rule.
