Kan. Stat. § 66-118e
In any case where the application for review might be taken to the district court of more than one county, any party interested in said action may, within ten (10) days after the transcript is filed with the clerk of the district court, apply to the district court in which such application was originally filed for a change of venue, and if it shall be made to appear to the satisfaction of the court that the convenience of the parties will be best served and a speedy, fair and economical trial be secured by transferring such proceeding to another county of this state in which the order or the decision of the commission is to become effective, or if it appears that the application should have been filed in the district court of some other county, it shall be the duty of the court to make an order transferring such proceeding to such other county for trial or decision, and, upon such order being made, the files of the case shall be transmitted by the clerk of the court to the clerk of the court of the county to which the proceeding is transferred, and thereupon the proceeding shall be docketed in the district court of the county to which it is transferred and all subsequent proceedings shall be had as if the application for review had been originally filed in the last named county: Provided, That the provisions of this section shall not be construed to restrict or prevent an application for change of venue upon any other statutory ground.
