Kan. Admin. Regs. § 94-5-9 - Filing procedures; time limitations

(a) Each party filing any action with the court shall file the application or appeal and shall pay any applicable fees required by K.A.R. 94-5-8. Each pleading or other document filed with the court shall be deemed to have been filed when actually received and file-stamped by the secretary or the secretary's designee, and the action shall commence on that date, if the document is in a form prescribed by these regulations or by statute.

(b) In computing any period of time prescribed by the Kansas administrative procedure act, the computation shall be made pursuant to K.S.A. 77-503(c), and amendments thereto. In computing any period of time not prescribed by the Kansas administrative procedure act, the computation shall be made pursuant to K.S.A. 60-206, and amendments thereto.

(c) When by these regulations or by notice given by the court, an act is required to be completed within a specified time, the time for completing the act may be extended by the court if a motion is filed before the expiration of the specified time. A motion for extension of time filed after the time limit has expired may be granted only if failure to act within the time limit was the result of excusable neglect.

(d) Any individual or entity may file documents at the court's office between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on any business day. Each document, whether mailed, hand-delivered, or sent by facsimile machine or electronically, shall be received by 5:00 p.m. in order to be file-stamped and considered filed on that date. The time of receipt shall be that time shown by the court's time clock, the time printed by the court's facsimile machine on the final page of the facsimile-received document, or the time shown as received by the court's electronic mail system or other electronic docketing system.
