75-6209. Same; final setoff; notice and accounting to debtor; hearings on further setoffs, when. (a) In accordance with the applicable times under K.S.A. 75-6208, and amendments thereto, the director shall complete the setoff by adding and retaining the collection assistance fee permitted by K.S.A. 75-6210, and amendments thereto, and transferring the net proceeds collected for credit or payment and by refunding any outstanding balance to the debtor.

(b) Upon completing the setoff, the director shall notify the debtor in writing of the action taken along with an accounting of the action taken. If there is an outstanding balance after setoff, the notice under this section shall accompany the balance when refunded.

(c) When a setoff is completed against earnings of an employee for any pay period and the setoff does not fully liquidate the debt due, further setoff in subsequent pay periods may be made without further certifications or notice to the debtor, except that the director shall notify the debtor in writing of the action taken and give an accounting thereof. The debtor may request an opportunity for hearing in regard to any further setoff in subsequent pay periods by making a written request therefor to the director. Any such request shall not stay future setoffs, but such hearing shall be held within a reasonable time, not to exceed 15 days after the request, unless a longer time has been agreed to by the debtor. Hearings under this subsection shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of the Kansas administrative procedure act. Orders resulting from hearings under this subsection shall not be subject to administrative review.
