Book excerpt: The procedure for amending a birth certificate to add or correct the name of a parent or to change the name of a child to that of a parent, is intended to reconcile a birth certificate with the facts which existed at the time the certificate was issued. The statute generally requires participation of both parents in the proceeding. However, on a case-by-case basis, an individual who is a single parent because of death or lack of acknowledgment of the other parent may proceed under that section if doing so does not broaden application of the statute, conflict with other statutes, or infringe on the interest of the absent parent.

Book excerpt: K.S.A. 75-4319(b)(2) authorizes public bodies subject to the Kansas Open Meetings Act (KOMA) to recess into an executive session for the purpose of "consultation with an attorney for the body or agency which would be deemed privileged in the attorney-client relationship ..." The term "consultation" as used in the KOMA necessarily implies the presence of an attorney. Even though a letter from an attorney to his client containing advice is a privileged communication, we must conclude that members of a public body cannot recess into an executive session to review and discuss among themselves a letter from their attorney. Therefore, it is our opinion that the "consultation with an attorney" exception to the open meetings law cannot be invoked unless the attorney for the body is present. Cited herein: K.S.A. 60-426; 75-4317; K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 75-4318(a); K.S.A. 75-4319.

Book excerpt: A search warrant maybe issued by a district magistrate judge upon the sworn oral or written statement of a city attorney. Municipal law enforcement officers may execute such warrant, and property seized pursuant to the warrant may be admissible as evidence in a municipal court. However, K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 8-1001(f) precludes the use of a search warrant to obtain a blood sample from a person who has refused to submit to a blood, breath or urine test pursuant to that statute.

Book excerpt: Pursuant to K.S.A. 8-1008, as amended by 1983 Substitute for House Bill No. 2132, community-based alcohol and drug safety action programs are authorized to perform a variety of services relating to persons who have been arrested for the offense of driving while under the influence of alcohol. Included in such services are evaluations of persons being considered for diversion or who have been convicted but not yet sentenced. Certification of the programs which are authorized to so act in each judicial district is determined by the administrative judge of the district or, in the event such judge declines to do so, by the Secretary of the Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services. Such certification is for the limited purpose of providing the services specified by K.S.A. 8-1008, as amended, and does not act as a substitute for licensure under K.S.A. 65-4001 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. and 65-4601 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. In that diagnostic services are included within the definition of treatment contained in the latter acts, a community-based alcohol and drug safety action program must be licensed under such acts before it may offer such services under K.S.A. 8-1008, as amended. Cited herein: K.S.A. 8-1008, 8-1567, both as amended by 1983 Substitute for House Bill No. 2132, K.S.A. 65-4001, 65-4003, 65-4601, K.A.R. 1982 Supp. 30-31-2, L. 1982, ch. 144.

Book excerpt: An instrument which purports to assign a debtor's right to receive payment under a contract for the sale of real estate represents a security interest in personality and must be filed accordingly in order to perfect the creditor's security interest. The instrument may also be recorded in the office of the register of deeds in the county in which the real estate is located, as the instrument is such that "real estate may be affected thereby." K.S.A. 58-2221. Further, since the instrument is not a mortgage of real estate as defined in K.S.A. 79-3101, no mortgage registration fee may be assessed for such recording. If, however, the instrument incorporates by reference an executory contract for the sale of the real estate which has never been recorded, and thus upon which no mortgage registration fee has been paid, then a mortgage registration fee must be collected based on the amount of the indebtedness involved in the executory contract. This is so because one cannot do indirectly (record an executory contract without paying mortgage registration fees) that which one could not do directly. Cited herein: K.S.A. 58-2221; 79-3101; K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 79-3102; K.S.A. 84-9-102; K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 84-9-401.

Book excerpt: Under its police power, a state may reimburse itself for the cost of regulating and supervising a business by assessing the necessary expenses to the business which created the necessity for such regulation and supervision. Use of conservation fee fund monies for the prevention and cleanup of pollution from oil and gas activities regulated by the state corporation commission is sufficiently related to the regulatory function to make its use for such purposes a valid exercise of the police power. The conservation fee fund may be used to fund the study and cleanup of oil and gas pollution pursuant to section 37 of 1986 House Bill No. 3078 (K.S.A. 55-143, as amended by 1986, ch. 201, section 37), to the extent that such study and cleanup are reasonably related to those activities of the oil and gas industry which are regulated by the commission. Use of the conservation fee fund by the state corporation commission for those oil and gas activities it does not regulate (as authorized by K.S.A. 55-143, as amended by L. 1986, ch. 201, section 37, which references subsection (a)(2)(A)-of K.S.A. 65-171d, as amended by L. 1986, ch. 201. section 22), is contrary to the findings of the Kansas Supreme Court in P̲a̲n̲h̲a̲n̲d̲l̲e̲ ̲E̲a̲s̲t̲e̲r̲n̲ ̲P̲i̲p̲e̲l̲i̲n̲e̲ ̲v̲.̲ ̲F̲a̲d̲e̲l̲e̲y̲. Such use exacts revenue from the oil and gas industry under the guise of a regulatory fee in violation of article 11, section 1 of the Kansas Constitution, and the commerce clause and the Fourteenth Amendment of the United State Constitution.

Const., Art. 11, section 1; U.S. Const., Fourteenth Amendment; K.S.A. 55-131; 55-143; 65-171d, as amended by L. 1986, ch. 33, section 10(f); L. 1986, ch. 201, sections 1, 2, 10, 17, 22, 28, 37, 39 and 40; and K.A.R. 28-41-1.
