Book excerpt: The legislature may refuse to appropriate moneys to provide funds for a̲ ̲p̲a̲r̲t̲i̲c̲u̲l̲a̲r̲ lease of office space already entered into by a state agency and may direct that no appropriated moneys shall be used for such purpose. However, the legislature may not prescribe that an agency may not enter into a̲n̲y̲ lease for office space without the prior approval of the State Finance Council or some other legislatively-dominated committee. Such a limitation on prospective action by a state agency violates the doctrine of separation of powers and is unconstitutional. Attorney General Opinion No. 81-83 is reaffirmed.

Book excerpt: As amended by Laws 1984, Chapter 154, Section 1(g), K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 38-1523(g) establishes a policy that law enforcement officers investigating reports of abuse or neglect on school premises do so in street clothes.

Book excerpt: Pursuant to K.S.A. 17-5601, the savings and loan commissioner has broad authority to authorize state chartered associations to engage in activities permitted to federal associations should the commissioner deem such activity reasonably required to preserve and protect the welfare of state associations and to promote competitive equality between state and federal associations. The ability of a federally chartered association to adopt a corporate title, as well as the activity of advertising, are regulated by the Federal Home Loan Bank Board (FHLBB) at 12 C.F.R. sections 543.1 and 563.27. As a result of these regulations and board interpretations, federal associations may use the word "banking" in their corporate titles, although the word "savings" must also be used. They may also use the words "banking" (as in "Do Your Banking With Us") and "bank" ("Bank With Us") in their advertising, provided also that the institution is identified as a savings association. In view of the power to engage in these activities which has been granted to federal associations, the savings and loan commissioner may utilize K.S.A. 17-5601 to equalize the powers of state associations with federal ones. However, for the reasons set forth in Attorney General Opinion No. 84-87, the commissioner may not authorize, nor may a state association use, the word "bank" in its title. Cited herein: K.S.A. 9-1715, 9-2011, 17-2244, 17-5101, 17-5222, 17-5601, 12 U.S.C.A. section 1726, P.L. 97-320, 12 C.F.R. sections 543.1, 547.1, 561.1, 563.27.

Book excerpt: The provisions of subsections (c) and (d) of K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 77-426, which allow the legislature to reject, modify or revoke an administrative rule and regulation by means of the adoption of a concurrent resolution, are unconstitutional. Such action by the legislature is an unlawful usurpation of the governor's constitutional power to administer and enforce the laws. Such action violates the constitutional doctrine of separation of powers. In addition, the legislative oversight mechanism prescribed in subsections (c) and (d) of K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 77-426 is unconstitutional for the reason that it attempts to authorize the legislature to make law, without following the mandatory procedures of the Kansas Constitution. The Kansas constitution requires that any law be enacted only by bill [not by resolution or concurrent resolution]; that every bill contain the constitutionally-specified enacting clause; and that all bills passed by the legislature be presented to the governor for approval or disapproval. The procedure set forth in subsections (c) and (d) of K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 77-426 does not meet these constitutional requirements and is unconstitutional. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 77-426; Kan. Const., Art. 2, sections 14, 20.

Book excerpt: K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 8-1567, as amended by 1984 Senate Bill No. 490, provides [at subsection (a)] that no person shall operate a vehicle within this state while under the influence of alcohol. While it is necessary to show that a defendant was "under the influence of alcohol" in order to prove a violation, this phrase means that the defendant's mental or physical function was impaired to the extend that he or she was incapable of safely driving a vehicle. Such incapability may be presumed if it is shown that there was .10% or more by weight of alcohol in the defendant's blood, and need not be accompanied by any showing that the actual operation of the vehicle was erratic or that the driver failed to exercise due care.
