§ 60-31a03 Jurisdiction.

Kansas district courts are the ones that handle cases involving protection from stalking, sexual assault, or human trafficking. If someone needs to ask a court for protection in these types of situations, the district court is the correct place to file that request.

This means people don't have to guess which court handles these cases or worry about going to the wrong place. Any request for a protective order related to stalking, sexual assault, or human trafficking will go through the district court system, and that court has the authority to hear the case and make decisions about it.
