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. An ordinance authorizing such procedure would be in conflict with the state statute prohibiting further testing after an informed refusal.

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: 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. Cited herein: Kans. 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.

Book excerpt: Once the county attorney has opined that the form of the question set forth in a petition submitted pursuant to K.S.A. 25-3601 et seq. and 71-501 complies with statutory requirements, a rebuttable presumption regarding validity of the form of the question attaches. The presumption remains until a party challenging the validity of the form of the question presents before a court of law sufficient evidence to the contrary. The provision in K.S.A. 25-3602 (Furse) that required a circulator of a petition submitted pursuant to K.S.A. 25-3601 et seq. and 71-501 be a registered elector violated the free speech rights of the circulator and, therefore, was unenforceable in relation to a petition filed prior to July 1, 2001. The fact the circulator's recital attached to the petition filed by a circulator pursuant to K.S.A. 25-3601 et seq. and 71-501 did not include the phrase "and a registered elector" does not affect the validity of the petition. Cited herein: K.S.A. 25-205, as amended by L. 2001, Ch. 211, section 4; 25-302a, as amended by L. 2001, Ch. 128, section 2; 25-303, as amended by L. 2001, Ch. 128, section 3; 25-3601; 25-3602, as amended by L. 2001, Ch. 211, section 8; 25-4306, as amended by L. 2001, Ch. 128, section 8; 25-4320, as amended by L. 2001, Ch. 128, section 10; 71-501; L. 2001, Ch. 128, section 14; L. 2001, Ch. 211, section 19; 25-3602 (Furse); L. 1986, Ch. 141, section 1.
