Book excerpt: The provisions of K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 65-3449(b) cannot be construed as an implied delegation of the power of eminent domain to any state board or agency. If the Kansas Legislature were to enact legislation authorizing condemnation proceedings to acquire real property for use as a radioactive waste storage facility, and declaring condemnation of property for such use to be a "public use," the condemnation of property under such an enactment would probably be upheld by the courts of this state. However, any specific "taking" of property, thereunder, would be open to judicial review for the purpose of considering public use, fraud, bad faith, or abuse of discretion. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 65-3445 and 65-3449.

Book excerpt: As amended by L. 1982, ch. 144, section 5, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567 provides that a person convicted of a violation of the offense of operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol may be required to perform public or community service work as an alternative to incarceration or payment of a fine. In assigning the work to be performed, a judge or court services division would be exercising judicial and discretionary functions, respectively, and would be exempt from liability under the Tort Claims Act, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 75-6101 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. However, as noted by Attorney General Opinion Nos. 81-98 and 82-157, the recipient organization (including local governments and non-profit corporations) may be liable for injuries and damages inflicted or suffered by persons acting within the scope of their designated community service duties. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567 (as amended by L. 1982, ch. 144, section 5), K.S.A. 21-4610, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 75-6102, 75-6104.

Book excerpt: K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567(c), as amended by section 5 of Senate Bill No. 699, establishes penalties for persons convicted of their first violation of the statute. Prior to the 1982 amendment, the subsection authorized a court to punish first time violators by imposing a specified jail sentence or a specified fine, "or by both such fine and imprisonment." In the amended statute, the word "and" replaces the word "or" between the term of imprisonment and the amount of the fine, although the phrase "or by both such fine and imprisonment" is retained. In that the intent of the legislature in altering the disjunctive "or" to the conjunctive "and" was to require both forms of punishment, the additional phrase allowing such is now mere verbiage, and adds nothing to the statute. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567, as amended by L. 1982, ch. 144, section 5.

Book excerpt: As amended by L. 1982, ch. 144, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567 contains new provisions for the sentencing of persons who are convicted of operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol. Additionally, the act amends K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1001 to admit into evidence the defendant's refusal to take a chemical test for the presence of alcohol. While the act does not specifically provide that these changes will apply only to offenses committed after its effective date of July 1, 1982, such a result is necessary in view of the substantive, as opposed to merely procedural, nature of these two amendments. Accordingly, the above-referenced amendments are applicable only to offenses committed after the effective date of the act. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1001, 8-1567, both as amended by L. 1982, ch. 144, K.S.A. 21-3102, 22-4618.

Book excerpt: Chapter 44 of the Laws of 1980 amended K.S.A. 8-2107 to allow the use of a credit card to post bond on certain enumerated offenses. Such cards, issued by banks, allow the violator to deposit a draft with the arresting officer, which draft is returned upon the violator's appearance for further proceedings before the court, or, alternatively, is forfeited upon nonappearance. The withholding of a predetermined amount by the issuer of the card from the amount posted as bond is not a violation of the Truth-in-Lending Act, 15 U.S.C. sections 1601 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲., in that there is no credit transaction which is subject thereto. Neither is there a violation of anti-trust laws by virtue of two or more banks entering into agreements to purchase such drafts at such a discount, provided such agreements are drafted by a state agency and then presented to such banks for their signature. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-2107, as amended by L. 1982, ch. 47, K.S.A. 16a-3-206, 16a-6-117, K.S.A. 50-101, 15 U.S.C. section 1, 15 U.S.C. section 1637, 12 C.F.R. 226.2, 12 C.F.R. 226.6, 12 C.F.R. 226.7.

Book excerpt: Despite the state corporation commission's longstanding acquiescence to the filing of rate applications with the commission by rate bureaus on behalf of motor carriers having Kansas intrastate authority, such practice is without basis in law. Kansas statutes neither recognize nor provide for the regulation of rate bureaus. Moreover, nothing in the Kansas statutes provide rate bureaus with immunity from prosecution under Kansas antitrust laws, and it would appear that the collective rate-making activities of rate bureaus constitute a restraint of trade in violation of said laws. However, before this conclusion can be made as a matter of law, an independent investigation of such activities would be necessary.

Book excerpt: The increased penalty provisions of K.S.A. 21-4501 (as amended by L. 1982, ch. 137, section 1) and K.S.A. 21-4608, (as amended by L. 1982, ch. 150, section 1) do not apply to crimes committed before July 1, 1982 (the effective date of the amendments), but are applicable to sentencing for crimes committed after July 1, 1982. The term "conditional release," as used in K.S.A. 21-4608 (as amended), refers to release from incarceration, subject to rules and conditions imposed by the releasing authority, following imprisonment for the maximum term imposed, minus work and good behavior credits.

Book excerpt: During the 1982 session of the Legislature, both Senate Bill Nos. 559 and 595 were enacted into law. As each of the two measures contains a section amending K.S.A. 16a-2-401, they should, if possible, be considered together in order to give effect to both. In that they alter different subsections of the statute, the two measures are not in conflict. Even though the changes made by S.B. No. 595 are not reflected in S.B. No. 559, K.S.A. 16a-2-401 may be read to include the changes made by both acts. Cited herein: K.S.A. 16a-2-201, 16a-2-401, 1982 Senate Bill No. 559, 1982 Senate Bill No. 595.

Book excerpt: The sole issue to be resolved at an administrative herring held under the "implied consent" law (K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1001) is the reasonableness of a person's refusal to submit to a request to take a blood-alcohol test. At the hearing, the only testimony needed from the arresting officer is the sworn report required in the statute, and if the sworn report addresses the necessary issues, there is no need for the officer to attend the hearing. However, if the sworn report fails to discuss whether the licensee was capable of making a voluntary response to the request to submit to a blood-alcohol test, and it appears that this issue will be raised in the administrative hearing, the testimony of the arresting officer is essential and the attendance of the arresting officer may be compelled by subpoena [K.S.A. 8-255(b)]. Cited herein: K.S.A. 8-255, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1001 and K.S.A. 54-101.

Book excerpt: A register of deeds is required to file of record a written instrument whereby real estate may be affected. Such filing can properly be refused only if the instrument contains apparent errors, or is not proved or acknowledged, and certified in the manner prescribed by law, or the register of deeds has been directed by a court not to file the instrument. Of course, a register of deeds also may refuse to file instruments that clearly do not affect real estate, or where the law requires some act, such as payment of the mortgage registration fee, before the instrument may be received and filed of record. Cited herein: K.S.A. 58-2221.
