Case No. 15-7339-JAR

ORDER
On June 10, 2015, the court granted the parties’ joint motion for an order directing the
Kansas Human Rights Commission (“KHRC”) to provide records pertaining to KHRC Case
No. 36210-13 (EEOC Charge No. 563-2013-00188). The court ordered the KHRC to submit
for in camera review any portion of the investigative file which it believed to be of a
deliberative or conciliatory nature, or attorney work product of the KHRC’s legal staff.
The court has reviewed the documents submitted by the KHRC and finds that all of
the documents submitted are of a deliberative or conciliatory nature, or attorney work
product and, therefore, are not discoverable.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated this 9th day of July, 2015, at Kansas City, Kansas.
