Ford County Attorney John Sauer has decided he will no longer try misdemeanor cases filed in his office that come from inside Dodge City.
"Due to the high volume of felony, juvenile and child in need of care cases filed in this office, the limitations of personnel in this office and the scarcity of the Kids' Counsel, we regretfully cannot handle any and all possible cases," Sauer wrote in a letter to Ford County Sheriff Dean Bush. "We must prioritize. Thus, we will accept for prosecution from the Ford County Sheriff's Office misdemeanor cases that occur outside the city limits of Dodge City."
