Book excerpt: K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 79-3603(p) imposes a 4% sales tax on the service of installing certain tangible personal property but exempts such service from the tax if the installation is in connection with the original construction of a building or a facility. The service of installing sewer and water mains in new subdivisions when the mains are part of the infrastructure of the new housing under construction comes within the tax exemption provided in K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 79-3603(p). Whether housing to be constructed in the future will be sufficiently connected with the original construction of a building or facility is a question of fact to be determined at the time of such construction.

Book excerpt: Proposed Rule 18, being considered for adoption by the Joint Committee on Special Claims against the State, regulating the compensation paid by claimants to attorneys and other persons representing such claimants before the Committee, goes beyond the authority of the Committee to adopt rules governing its own procedures. Any such regulatory authority must be exercised by valid and constitutional legislative enactment rather than by committee rules which govern only the parliamentary and procedural conduct of business before the Committee.

Book excerpt: K.S.A. 75-4319(a)(1) and (2) require that the motion to go into an executive session contain a statement concerning the subject and the justification for the executive session. In our opinion the justification statement should be more than a reiteration of the subject. The KOMA does not require the justification statement to be so detailed that it negates the usefulness of an executive session. However, K.S.A. 75-4319(a)(2) requires a justification statement to be contained in the motion and it is our opinion that this statement should explain why an executive session is necessary or desirable. Such a motion gives the public assurances that the executive session is permissible and in the public interest, and may remind the members of the public body of the limitations upon and purpose served by the executive session discussion. Cited herein: K.S.A. 75-4319.

Book excerpt: While the general business of a state bank must be transacted at the place of business specified on its certificate of authority, the commissioner may, in accordance with K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 9-1715, allow a state bank to engage in an activity in which it could engage if it were a federally chartered bank. As national banks may establish loan production offices without violating branch banking statutes, the commissioner could allow the same for state banks. To the extent that relevant statutes have been amended, Attorney General Opinions No. 78-109 and 78-115 are superseded. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 9-1111; 9-1127b; 9-1715; K.S.A. 9-1715 (Ensley, 1982); K.S.A. 9-1715 (Weeks, 1975); L. 1986, ch. 57, sections 8, 11; L. 1984, ch. 48, section 5; 12 U.S.C. sections 36(f), 81, 1843(c)(8) (1986); 12 C.F.R. section 7.7380 (1987), 12 C.F.R.

Download or read book Attorney General Opinion No 1987 121 written by Robert T. Stephan and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: K.S.A. 20-105 provides that to be qualified to hold the office of justice of the supreme court or judge of the court of appeals, a person must have been regularly admitted to practice law in Kansas and have engaged in the active and continuous practice of law for a period of at least ten years prior to the date of appointment as justice or judge. Though the strict definition of "active practice" would require that the legal activities of the person in question be pursued on a full-time basis and constitute his regular business, the general rule that statutory provisions imposing qualifications for office should be construed in favor of those seeking to hold office would serve to soften this requirement. Thus, a potential nominee need not be a full-time trial attorney to be considered as actively engaged in the practice of law, and is not automatically disqualified merely for holding a position which does not require legal expertise. Cited herein: K.S.A. 20-105; 20-3002; K.S.A. 1986 Supp. 22-3707.

Book excerpt: Since it is the client's intent which governs the distinction between privileged and non-privileged communications, a determination of whether or not information exchanged between attorney and client is privileged requires a case-by-case consideration. To ensure compliance with the dictates of Canon 4 of the Code of Professional Responsibility and K.S.A. 60-426, when a supervising agency requests that an attorney release particular client information for enumerative or evaluative purposes, the attorney may either obtain the client's consent to do so, or, if the client refuses, compile the requested data in a less intrusive manner. If, however, the agency requests the data for purposes of determining a client's financial eligibility onto satisfy funding requirements, the exception to the privilege under DR-4-101(C)(4) would apply, making the aforementioned precautions unnecessary. Cited herein: K.S.A. 45-217; 45-221; 60-426; K.S.A. 1986 Supp. 20-3100, Supreme Court Rule No. 225, D.R. 4-101.

Book excerpt: As a condition precedent to receipt of a motor vehicle registration, K.S.A. 1986 Supp. 8-173 requires payment of all personal property taxes levied against the registrant for the preceding year. The statute does not on its face or in its application create any classification which could give rise to an equal protection challenge under the Fourteenth Amendment. Accordingly, K.S.A. 1986 Supp. 8-173 is valid under the Fourteenth Amendment to the constitution of the United States. Cited Herein: K.S.A. 1986 Supp. 8-173; U.S. Const., Fourteenth Amend.

Book excerpt: The statutory and regulatory scheme found in K.S.A. 1986 Supp. 55-609(c), 55-711(c) and K.A.R. 82-3-206 imposes an assessment to pay the conservation division expenses and administrative costs. Under this scheme the first purchaser pays the assessment and deducts it from payment of production to producers and royalty owners. Generally, as a matter of federal constitutional law, the federal government and Indian tribes are exempt from state taxation absent congressional consent. In our judgment there is implicit consent to tax the federal government in 30 U.S.C. sections 189 which authorizes a tax against a lessee of the federal government. This federal statute has been interpreted by the U.S. Supreme Court to authorize the tax against the lessee "as if the government were not concerned." There is also congressional authorization to tax the mineral interests of Indian tribes if the interests result from a lease issued to a non-Indian lessee pursuant to the 1924 Act found in 25 U.S.C. sections 398. However, this authorization does not exist in the Indian Mineral Leasing Act of 1938 found in 25 U.S.C. sections 396a. Therefore Indian mineral interests resulting from a lease issued to a non-Indian lessee pursuant to the 1924 Act are not exempt and those pursuant to the 1938 Act are exempt from the statutory and regulatory scheme in question. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1986 Supp. 55-609, 55-711, U.S. Const., Art. IV, sections 3, cl. 2; 30 U.S.C. sections 189, 25 U.S.C. sections 396a; 398.

Book excerpt: K.S.A. 25-302a requires that the circulator of a petition circulated pursuant to that statute be a registered voter of the county in which the petition is circulated. The statute requires additionally that petitions circulated under K.S.A. 25-302a be examined for sufficiency pursuant to the provisions of K.S.A. 25-3601 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. K.S.A. 25-3602(c) states that the circulator of a petition shall be a resident of the political or taxing subdivision in which the election is sought to be held. In that a person may have only one residence under Kansas law, an individual in Kansas is prohibited from claiming simultaneous residence in one county, and voter registration (and thus residence) in another county. Accordingly, in light of these statutory provisions, the circulator of a petition may not collect signatures from residents of other counties even if they sign the petition while in the circulator's county. Cited herein: K.S.A. 25-302a; 25-407; 25-3602; K.S.A. 1986 Supp. 77-201.
