Book excerpt: K.S.A. 1986 Supp. 19-3602 permits the creation of a fire district pursuant to the motion of the board of county commissioners or as provided in K.S.A. 19-3603. K.S.A. 19-3603 requires that a petition be signed by residents who want a new fire district. Unless proceeding solely under K.S.A. 1986 Supp. 19-3602, this procedure is mandatory not permissive. It is not dependent upon nor extinguished by any previous petition requesting disorganization or alteration of an existing fire district under K.S.A. 1986 Supp. 19-3604. K.S.A. 19-3611 provides the means by which a fire protection benefit district or other special fire district may be included in or made a part of an existing fire district. It should not be used to disorganize or exclude property from an already existing fire district. The required signatures on a petition requesting creation of a fire district are those of the residents of the county cumulatively owning more than sixty percent of the area of the lands situated within the boundaries of the proposed district, and not total landowners in the affected area.

Book excerpt: K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 16-601i authorizes the investment of funds obtained from the sale of investment certificates in a majority-owned affiliate or subsidiary of the issuer as long as the affiliate/subsidiary is engaged in the same type of business as the issuer and does not itself issue investment certificates. Based on the historical background of the investment certificate act and the rules of statutory construction, it is our opinion that this provision would not preclude the acquisition of the majority stock of a savings and loan association with funds obtained from the sale of investment certificates. However, the Consumer Credit Commissioner has the discretion to prohibit such an investment if her determination is reasonably based on other provisions of the act. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 9-1101, as amended by L. 1988, ch. 62, section 1; 16-601i; 16-630; 16a-1-301, as amended by L. 1988, ch. 85, section 2; 17-5501.

Book excerpt: The two (2) weeks limitation of K.S.A. 38-817(a) is not tantamount to the Sixth Amendment Constitutional guarantee of a right to a speedy trial afforded the accused in a criminal action. The two (2) weeks limitation is not jurisdictional in nature but is a procedural guideline for the courts to follow in juvenile matters. The state is not foreclosed from refiling a juvenile matter which has been dismissed due to the fact that a hearing had not been set within the two (2) weeks limitation of K.S.A. 38-817(a).

Book excerpt: "K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 19-805(b) authorizes a sheriff, in his or her discretion, to require staff attendance at meetings and seminars which the sheriff determines to be beneficial to the operation of the office, within the limits of the sheriff's budget as approved by the county commissioners. In view of the discretionary nature of the activity, the expenditures authorized under subsection (b) are subject to the general rule that the authority and responsibility for county expenditures is vested in the board of county commissioners. A policy of "shared discretion" could effectively reconcile the interests of the sheriff and the commissioners in regard to this statute, if the commissioners would approve a specific sum in the sheriff's budget each year to be expended for attendance at meetings and seminars. In this way, the sheriff could exercise his or her authority under the statute within the limits of the approved budget without seeking prior approval from the commissioners. Cited herein: K.S.A. 19-212; 19-229; K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 19-805; 74-5607a."

Book excerpt: If a witness is subpoenaed to appear in two separate courts on the same day and appearance in both courts is thereby made impractical or impossible, the witness may choose which subpoena to honor.

Book excerpt: While K.S.A. 12-527 prescribes no time limit within which a city must purchase rural water district lines and facilities located upon land annexed by the city, such purchase must be accomplished within a reasonable time following annexation. The reasonableness of the time within which a city proposes to consumate such a purchase is a question of fact to be ascertained in light of all facts and circumstances. Additionally, a city is not liable for severance damages in acquiring title to rural water district lines and facilities under the provisions of K.S.A. 12-527. Cited herein: K.S.A. 12-527; 26-504.

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.
