After an arrest

Who decides release first

Jail staff sworn in as deputy clerks of the district court often release people on the district's bond schedule before they see a judge. Otherwise a district judge or district magistrate judge sets the bond at the first appearance. District magistrate judges may be non-lawyers.

A person arrested without a warrant must be taken without unnecessary delay before the nearest available magistrate, and a complaint filed at once. Kansas law sets no general number of hours.
