Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two (2) weeks limitation of K.S.A. 38-817(a) is not tantamount to the Sixth Amendment Constitutional guarantee of a right to a speedy trial afforded the accused in a criminal action. The two (2) weeks limitation is not jurisdictional in nature but is a procedural guideline for the courts to follow in juvenile matters. The state is not foreclosed from refiling a juvenile matter which has been dismissed due to the fact that a hearing had not been set within the two (2) weeks limitation of K.S.A. 38-817(a).
