Double L Pervert Phill ethics hearing postponed until fall

Kline ethics hearing postponed until fallA hearing on a legal ethics complaint filed against former Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline has been postponed until Nov. 15.

The hearing had been scheduled for next month. The Supreme Court announced the change Thursday, saying Kline’s team of attorneys wasn’t available until fall.

Kline, who served as Johnson County DA after he left the AG’s office, faces allegations that he disobeyed the Kansas Supreme Court, misled judges and withheld information from a grand jury.

In a formal response released Thursday, Kline denied any wrongdoing. Kline now teaches law at a university in Virginia.

The complaint was filed by the state’s judicial disciplinary administrator. A judicial ethics panel will review the case to determine whether Kline violated professional ethics and should be disciplined. However, it would be up to the Kansas Supreme Court to decide any punishment, which could include public censure or disbarment
