Book excerpt: A lock out is ordinarily a manifestation of a labor dispute, and where such a dispute exists, an employee (otherwise qualified) who is refused work by an employer, through a lock out, is not entitled to unemployment compensation benefits, except as provided in subsection (d) of K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 44-706 (as amended). However, an employee is not disqualified from receiving such benefits where the lock out is a result of arbitrary actions of an employer, which actions are unrelated to a recognized labor dispute.

Book excerpt: For purposes of civil proceedings under the Code for Care of Children, the legislature defined types of behavior which would constitute sexual abuse by reference to sex offenses in the criminal code, however, it did not thereby intend to adopt a criminal definition of sexual abuse. Thus, while certain acts described as sex offenses in the criminal statutes may not be punishable crimes if committed with a child age 16 years or older; those same acts may constitute abuse of that child under the definition of that term in the Code for Care of Children.

Book excerpt: As amended by 1982 Senate Bill No. 699, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567 provides [at subsection (n)] that a city may enact an ordinance which prohibits or makes unlawful the same acts as are dealt with by the statute, provided that the ordinance's minimum penalties are the same as the statutes for any given violation, and the ordinance's maximum penalty does not exceed that of the statute. Apart from these limits, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567 as amended does not preempt a city from taking action in this area. As amended by 1982 Senate Bill No. 699, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567(c), (d) and (e) prohibit a prosecuting attorney from entering into any plea-bargaining agreement by which a defendant enters a guilty or no contest plea to a lesser offense than that originally charged. While no sanctions against such conduct exist under the statute, provisions of the general ouster law could be applied against prosecuting attorneys who violate the prohibition against plea-bargaining.

Book excerpt: Pursuant to K.S.A. 79-405 and 79-406, a county clerk has the duty to execute a plat of any subdivision or lot when such is owned by two or more persons and the legal description of the property is insufficient for purposes of assessment and taxation. Upon completion, such plat is to be filed for record with the register of deeds, and thereafter has the same effect as a plat executed and filed by the owner or owners of property. However, in the event that real estate taxes are due and owing on property platted by a county clerk pursuant to the above-referenced statutes, K.S.A. 19-1207 proscribes the register of deeds from recording the plat until taxes on the property are paid. In the case where a clerk has prepared a plat but taxes remain unpaid, the plat may not be filed due to K.S.A. 19-1207, but may be used only for the purposes originally intended, i.̲e̲.̲, assessment and taxation. Cited herein: K.S.A. 19-1207, 79-405, 79-406, K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 79-408, 79-1803.

Book excerpt: The Kansas Water Office, as the successor to the authority of the Kansas Water Resources Board, may enter into agreements with the federal government by which water may be held in storage by the state in projects constructed by agencies of the federal government. As provided by K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 82a-934, such agreements are binding upon the state to the extent that future appropriations are made in support thereof. While no applicable sections of the Kansas Constitution limit the period of time an appropriation may extend, K.S.A. 46-155 imposes a limit of at most four years for capitol improvement appropriations. As no exception has been made for water storage agreements, the Kansas Water Office is without authority to make agreements which do not contain the limiting language provided by K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 82a-934. However, as this statute does authorize the Water Office to reimburse the federal government for damages resulting from the use of, or a release from, water storage, it may agree to language which states this in a contract. Cited herein: K.S.A. 40-3405, 46-155, K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 75-4704b, 82a-934, Kan. Const., Art. 2, section 24, Art. 11, sections 6,7,9, 42 U.S.C.A. section 1962d-5b.

Book excerpt: Pursuant to K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 79-3425, there is a daily transfer to the highway fund of 69.23% of certain revenues accruing to the state freeway fund. The legislature clearly intends that proceeds of the various motor fuel taxes credited to said fund be subject to such transfer, but it is difficult to discern from the pertinent statutory provisions whether the legislature intends that a similar transfer be made of moneys representing interest on the highway fund that are credited to the state freeway fund pursuant to K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 68-2313. However, because the state officers charged with the administration and implementation of the relevant statutory provisions have consistently construed such provisions as precluding the daily transfer of highway fund interest moneys from the freeway fund to the highway fund, such interpretation is not only entitled to great weight, but is controlling, in light of the legislature's continued acquiescence in such interpretation. Cited herein: K.S.A. 68-2301, K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 68-2304, K.S.A. 68-2306, K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 68-2313, 79-3401, 79-3425, K.S.A. 79-3474, K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 79-3487, K.S.A. 79-3490, K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 79-34,104, L. 1979, ch. 323, section 3.

Book excerpt: K.S.A. 82a-1316 provides that any contract for the withdrawal of water held in conservation storage by the state may be amended by written agreement of the parties, provided that such amendment does not affect the rate per unit of water or the minimum charge payable each year. Provisions specifying the point of withdrawal of water, however, may be amended so as to change the reservoir named in the contract. Such an amendment must, in order to have effect, be transmitted to and approved by the legislature in the same manner as water purchase contracts.

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: Section 4(d) of 1983 House Bill No. 2327 (L. 1983, ch. 171), the new Kansas Open Records Act, provides that each request for access shall be acted upon as soon as possible, but not later than three business days following receipt of the request. Only if the request cannot be met within this time must the custodian of the records provide an explanation of the cause for further delay. In addition, the phrases "provide access to" and "permit inspection of" are used interchangeably throughout the bill, and may accordingly be treated as synonymous for purposes of interpretation. Both phrases concern the right of the public to examine public records, and so are different than the right to make copies. Cited herein: L. 1983, Ch. 171.
