Book excerpt: Except to the extent the duration of a term of public office is specified or limited by the Kansas constitution, the legislature may constitutionally alter the term, even if the effect is to cut short the unexpired term of an incumbent officer.

Book excerpt: The "governor's cabinet" has evolved through custom and tradition loosely patterned after the United States president's cabinet. Each member of the president's cabinet has a constitutional duty to provide opinions as the principal officer of an executive department when required by the president. U.S. const., art. II, section 2. There is a similar provision in the Kansas constitution. As such, cabinet members serve as advisors to the governor. The members of the current governor's cabinet include the secretaries of various state departments who are appointed by the governor subject to the confirmation of the senate and serve at the pleasure of the governor. In our opinion, the legislature may require that the secretary of the board of agriculture serve as a member of the governor's cabinet because as a member of the executive department she is already subject to the governor's request for information regarding her duties.

Book excerpt: The old Rock Island Railroad depot building donated in 1959 to the Eisenhower presidential library commission was library property, and title thereto was acquired in the name of the state. Assuming the governor conveyed the library property of the Eisenhower presidential library commission to the United States as provided by L. 1961, ch. 393, and assuming the federal government accepted such conveyance pursuant to federal statute, title to the building was thereby transferred to the federal government. The storage contract for the depot building executed in 1960 by the commission and Old Abilene Town Company, Inc. expired in 1985. Thereafter, the federal government as the presumed successor title owner had the legal right to take possession of the depot building.

Book excerpt: A city may not prohibit the use of its park for political advocacy activities or prohibit the distribution of handbills, pamphlets, posters or any other literature of a political nature as such restrictions violate the first amendment to the United States constitution because the prohibition constitutes a prior restraint on communication without narrow objective and definite standards. Furthermore, the exclusion of all political activity in a city park is a content-based exclusion which requires the city to establish that the exclusion is necessary to serve a compelling governmental interest and is narrowly drawn to achieve that interest. Finally, a city may impose reasonable restrictions on the time, place or manner of protected speech provided the restrictions are justified without reference to their content, are narrowly tailored to serve a significant city interest and leave open ample alternative channels for communication of information. Cited herein: U.S. Const., amend. 1.
