Topeka ? Kansas Supreme Court Chief Justice Lawton Nuss is giving the State of the Judiciary address next Wednesday from the courtroom of the Supreme Court.

The public also can follow the address on Kansas judiciary’s website. Nuss said in a news release that he chose to webcast the address because of public interest into how the state budget shortfalls will impact the judiciary.

Nuss will also provide a written report on the judiciary to the governor and state legislature as required by Kansas law.
