Description

The opinion of the court was delivered by On February 16, 1973, William V. Minner filed a complaint with the Kansas Commission on Civil Rights, herein called the commission, complaining of a discriminatory practice by Sears, Roebuck and Company, hereafter referred to as Sears or defendant, in refusing him credit because he was black, in violation of K.S.A. 44-1009 (c) (1) (Weeks, 1973). Thereafter, and on November 28, 1973, the commission issued a subpoena duces tecum to Mr. Loyd Reynolds, the credit manager of the Sears store in Topeka, directing him to produce the following: 1. List of persons who applied and received credit thirty (30) days prior to January 6, 1973, and thirty (30) days after, also any rating your company may have received from any credit bureau on these persons. 2. List of persons who applied and were denied credit thirty (30) days prior to January 6, 1973, and thirty (30) days after, also any rating your company may have received from credit bureau on these persons. Sears did not comply with the subpoena, and the commission filed an action in the district court of Shawnee County, under the provisions of K.S.A. 44-1004 (5) (Weeks, 1973), to secure an order directing Mr. Reynolds to produce the subpoenaed documents forthwith or to show cause why he should not be punished for contempt. On December 12, 1973, the district court issued an ex parte order directing Reynolds to produce the records for examination by an authorized representative of the commission or, in the alternative, to show cause why he should not be held in contempt.
