Supreme Court of Kansas

First Security Bank v. Buehne

December 30, 2021

Summary

The Kansas Supreme Court affirmed the lower courts, holding that the waiver of the statute of limitations in the Buehnes' commercial promissory note was not void as against public policy, and therefore the bank’s foreclosure action was not barred. The court reasoned that the waiver’s language "to the full extent permitted by law" provided a safety valve and that no prejudice was shown.
