Book excerpt: K.S.A. 28-175 and K.S.A. 19-705 prohibit additional compensation or fees for performance of duties connected with the office of county attorney beyond what is specifically allowed by law. Case law uniformly allows additional compensation to be paid when a county attorney performs legal services outside the county's jurisdiction. While K.S.A. 22-2616(4) requires a county attorney to remain responsible for prosecution of cases transferred to another venue pursuant to that statute, it does not prohibit compensation or evidence legislative intent to abolish this case law. It is therefore our opinion that the county attorney may properly receive additional compensation for services rendered in another county pursuant to K.S.A. 22-2616(4).

Book excerpt: In B̲e̲l̲l̲o̲t̲t̲i̲ ̲v̲.̲ ̲B̲a̲i̲r̲d̲, 443 U.S. 622, 995 S. Ct. 3035, 61 L. Ed. 2d 797 (1979) (plurality opinion) the United States Supreme Court held that the United States Constitution would permit a state to require a pregnant minor to obtain parental consent to an abortion if the state provided an alternative procedure whereby the minor could establish that she was mature enough to make the decision on her own or that it would be in her best interests to have the abortion. Since 1988 House Bill No. 2950 establishes such an alternative procedure, it is our opinion that its parental consent requirements would pass constitutional muster. Cited herein: 1988 House Bill No. 2950.

Book excerpt: Residency for reapportionment of state senatorial and representative districts is established by statute. Persons who are citizens of a country other than the United States are deemed to be residents of the country in which which they hold citizenship. Those persons are not to be enumerated in the Kansas census unless they obtain United States citizenship as well as establish legal residence in this state prior to the time of enumeration. The resulting distinction between citizens and non-citizens does not impermissibly dilute the power of an individual's vote, and does not therefor deny equal protection. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 11-204, as amended by L. 1988, ch. 67, section 2; K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 11-205; Kans. Const., Art. 10, section 1.

Book excerpt: 1988 House Bill No. 2704, places restraints on the "property rights" of individuals in order to promote and protect the well established public welfare interest of insuring that human remains are treated properly. In our opinion it clearly represents a valid exercise of the state's inherent police power. Therefore, any private individual claiming ownership of human skeletal remains would not be entitled to compensation simply because the state regulation requires relinquishment of the remains. However, if a claimant convinced the court that 1988 House Bill No. 2704 operated as an eminent domain taking of an identifiable property interest, rather than a valid exercise of police power, the court could require compensation for any legally held property interest taken by the regulation. Valuation of such a property interest would require consideration of factors set forth in K.S.A. 26-513(d) and evidence of (1) the fair market value and condition of the portion of property at the time of the taking, and (2) the loss of that value to the legal owner.
