Curt Schneider defends role of attorney general's office
Although the role of the attorney general has been controversial in recent years, the office has been highly successful. Curt L. Bentley, a former state attorney for attorney general, said yesterday.
Schneider said that the office under Vern Miller had been successful in landmark cases and had issued more legal opinions since his administration's administration in the state's history.
"We've been active," he said. "You may criticize us, but you can't criticize our motives. I think we have a good record, and we are proud of it."
Schneider is from Coffeyville and has served for the past three years as the chief counselor division in the attorney general's office. He also spoke about the office at the School of Law's new campus.
He said the attorney general's office was responsible for a settlement with overcharging drug companies in which Kansans received a greater amount of refunds than they would have received in those states. This was the first settlement in Kansas where refunds were directed directly to the consumer.
Referring to his involvement with Vern Miller in the attorney general's office, Schneider said, "I get accused of coattail politics. I am not Vern Miller. Miller and I philosophically agree that you don't have to just sit in Topeka and issue civil opinions.
"I've never tried to sell myself as a cop. I am a lawyer. I judge that we have a good job."
Schneider said the function of the attorney general was to work with state law enforcement agencies and attorneys. He said he planned to take an active part in the procedures of the office rather than serve only in an administrative capacity.
Experience is the all-important basis for choosing an attorney general, be said.
"There are no issues in the attorney general race," he said. "What I think makes no difference because people don't vote on the proposals of the attorney general."
Schneider said issues such as penal reform and revision of drug laws had to be dealt with on the legislative level of state government.
district and federal courts. Schneider said his Republican opponent, Thomas Van Sickle, had background in the legislature rather than in the court system.
Scheinred said he thought he was well qualified for attorney general because he was experienced in private and state legal practice and familiar with the county.
Commenting on Vern Miller's campaign for governor, he said, "Miller could make a great governor. I've never met anyone who can be a governor," he said. He can relate to the average person."
Schneider said that in some areas of the state his association with Miller had been helpful, but that in other areas the association had been detrimental.
"As far as college communities go," he said, "I want to be able to sell myself."
