Kansas courts – including district courts in all 105 counties, the Court of Appeals, and the Supreme Court – provide the people of Kansas a venue to resolve disputes through a legal process by interpreting and applying the law and by determining when laws are unconstitutional. Under the people's Constitution, the Kansas Supreme Court has general administrative authority over all courts in the state.
