§ 60-3404 Expiration of act.

This rule set an end date for an earlier group of laws. It says that Kansas statutes 60-3401 through 60-3403 stopped being in effect on July 1, 1989. After that date, courts could no longer use those specific rules.

The second part explains that this rule itself is meant to work alongside the rest of the Kansas code of civil procedure. In other words, it fits into the bigger set of rules that guide how civil court cases are handled in Kansas.

For most people today, this rule mainly matters as a historical marker. It tells you that whatever 60-3401 through 60-3403 covered no longer applies, since that law expired more than three decades ago. If you're looking into an older case or document that mentions those sections, you would need to look at what the law said before 1989, since it no longer controls current cases.
