Kan. Admin. Regs. § 105-21-4
Any public defender, with the approval of the director, may elect to accept misdemeanor or juvenile appointments not covered by agreement or contract in the district or county of jurisdiction. However, the public defender shall make a record of time expended both in court and in preparation of such a case and shall submit this timesheet with a bill for services rendered to be computed at the rate set out in K.A.R. 105-5-2. The timesheet and bill shall be submitted to the clerk of district court of the county in which the case was heard. A copy of this billing and timesheet shall be sent promptly to the director. The bill shall designate the state board of indigents' defense services as the payee and shall include the title of the case, case number and any other identifying information needed by the clerk for processing, as well as the total amount due according to the timesheet. Expenses incurred by the public defender office may also be included in this billing.
The public defender may, at any time, refuse to accept misdemeanor or juvenile appointments.
