““Judicial discretion is abused if judicial action is arbitrary, fanciful, or unreasonable. Stated another way, discretion is abused only if no reasonable person would take the view adopted by the trial court. If reasonable persons could differ regarding the propriety of the action taken by the trial court, then it cannot be said that the trial court abused its discretion.” State v. Brown, 249 Kan. 698 , Syl. ¶ 10, 823 P.2d 190 (1991).”
