Legal News Center
[##_1L|1136919502.jpg|width="120" height="88" alt=""|_##]Attorney General Paul Morrison is now a party to a lawsuit filed against his predecessor by an abortion clinic's operator. The Kansas Supreme Court has allowed Morrison to intervene in the case. It was filed with the court in June by Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri.
The group is targeting former Attorney General Phill Kline, now the Johnson County District Attorney. Its clinic in Overland Park falls within Kline's jurisdiction, and he investigated it while attorney general.
The court's order was filed under seal, like all other documents in the case. There has been no public explanation of why Planned Parenthood is suing Kline or why Morrison wants to intervene.
