Alimony in Shawnee: how it is calculated
Alimony in Shawnee follows Kansas law, not a local rule — the same statute applies whether the case is filed in Johnson County or anywhere else in the state. Here is what that formula produces, and where a Shawnee case is actually heard.
Where a Shawnee case goes
A divorce filed in Shawnee is heard by the Kansas court for Johnson County. The judge applies the state statute below; the county sets the filing procedure, not the amount. Shawnee has about 69,724 residents (Census Bureau, 2024 estimate).

Does Shawnee have its own rule?
No. K.S.A. §§ 23-2902, 23-2904 applies across Kansas, so a case from Shawnee is decided by the same numbers as one filed anywhere else in the state. What changes locally is the courthouse, the clerk's procedure and how long the docket takes — not the amount.
What the statute says
K.S.A. §§ 23-2902, 23-2904 — Kansas maintenance (121-month statutory limit).
