AP - TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) - The Latest on the Kansas Supreme Court's ruling on public school funding (all times local): 6:45 p.m. Republican Gov. Sam Brownback is calling a Kansas Supreme Court decision on school funding "yet another regrettable chapter in the never ending cycle of litigation" over education funding. Brownback issued his statement Monday after the court rejected a school funding law enacted earlier this year. The law phased in a $293 million increase in spending on schools over two years, and the court said the spending is inadequate to provide a suitable education for every child. But Brownback said the court should not have substituted its judgment for the Legislature's. ___ 4:15 p.m.
