Governor Kelly Appoints Attorney Larkin Walsh to Fill Vacancy on the Kansas Supreme Court
“Appointing justices to the Kansas Supreme Court is one of the most important responsibilities I have as governor, and it is not one I take lightly. Justices must have a deep knowledge of the law and take into account many complex and nuanced situations that impact Kansans and shape our state every day.
“Our state’s process for nominating Kansas Supreme Court justices produces highly qualified nominees and incorporates voices from across the state. This year in particular, produced three extremely qualified nominees, and I am grateful for the service to Kansas each of them exemplifies.
“Larkin’s extensive legal experience and her background of service makes her an excellent addition to the Kansas Supreme Court. Her deep understanding of appellate courts, combined with her breadth of experience in civil practice, gives her a unique and invaluable perspective.
“Throughout her career, Larkin has been dedicated to upholding the law and beyond this, she has served the legal community and public through many leadership positions and volunteer roles. I’m confident that her legal skills and work ethic make her immensely qualified to serve as the next Kansas Supreme Court justice.”
