Rule 725: Additional Rules of Procedure

(a)   Deadlines. Except as otherwise provided in these rules, time limitations are directory and not jurisdictional.

(b)   Application of Procedural and Evidentiary Rules. To the extent procedures are not outlined in these rules, the Kansas Rules of Civil Procedure generally apply to a matter before the Board of Law Examiners. Proceedings before the Board are not restricted by the formal rules of evidence.

(c)   Prejudice. Any deviation from these rules by the Board, Attorney Admissions Review Committee, admissions attorney, or Attorney Admissions office will provide grounds for relief only when an applicant establishes by clear and convincing evidence that the deviation resulted in actual prejudice.

[History: New rule adopted effective July 1, 2022.]
