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. 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.

Book excerpt: K.S.A. 25-1709 prohibits corporations carrying on the business of a bank from making contributions to political parties. As previously discussed in Attorney General Opinion No. 82-280, the "business of a bank" involves accepting deposits, allowing withdrawals, and paying interest on accounts. As a company which owns all or a portion of the stock of a bank is itself not engaged in the busines of banking, it is not subject to the prohibitions of the statute, and may make contributions to political campaigns or political parties, subject to applicable federal laws.

Book excerpt: K.S.A. 65-4321, as amended by L. 1984, Ch. 244, prohibits the renewal of a temporary certificate issued pursuant to its terms. The statute does not prohibit the issuance of temporary certificates to persons who have held temporary certificates in the past but who do not presently hold such certificates. The absence of such a prohibition and the overriding public interest in the adequacy of emergency medical services in a certain area of Doniphan County compels the conclusion that temporary certificates may be issued to certain ambulance attendants who have held such certificates in the past but who do not presently hold such a certificate. The issuance of temporary certificates must be in compliance with the requirements of K.S.A. 65-4321,: as amended, and no such certificate may issue to a person who is not enrolled in or who will not be enrolled in the course of instruction necessary to become a certified attendant under Kansas law.

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.

However, a previous conviction in another state must be considered in determining whether diversion of a defendant is in the interest of justice.

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. However, the statute imposes no absolute requirement and allows safety and practical considerations to be taken into account. Accordingly, a small police force could determine that its officers should not take the additional time needed to change from their uniforms into street clothes, and then back again, in making such investigations.
