Book Description
The legislature has provided for two official ballots for the election of officers at general elections. One such official general ballot contains the names of candidates for national and state offices, and the other contains the names of candidates for county and township officers. Thus, where a candidate's name is printed or written once on each of such ballots it does not contravene the statutory prohibition against a candidate's name being printed more than once on a ballot, or being written elsewhere on a ballot where it is printed. In order to avoid absurd and unreasonable consequences, and in order to effectuate an obvious legislative intent to separate the listing of candidates for state and national offices from the candidates for county and township offices, such provisions must be construed as applying with equal force and effect in those counties which use voting machines. Cited herein: K.S.A. 25-601, K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 25-604, 25-605, 25-605a, 25-613, 25-614, 25-616, 25-617, 25-618, K.S.A. 25-1318, 25-1320, 25-1343, 25-2905, 25-3003, 25-3103, 25-3801.

Book Description
Under the provisions of K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 22-4504 (as amended by L. 1981, ch. 157, sec. 1), the board of supervisors of panels to aid indigent defendants is empowered to adopt rules and regulations concerning the ability of a defendant in a criminal action to retain counsel to assist in his defense. Such rules and regulations specifically relate to the income, assets and anticipated costs of representation of a defendant. Pursuant to the 1981 amendment, such rules and regulations are controlling on any determination by a judge or magistrate as to whether a defendant is financially unable to employ counsel. Moreover, these rules and regulations are adopted in accordance with K.S.A. 77-415 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲., thus allowing the legislature to modify or reject them through the adoption of a concurrent resolution (K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 77-426). Insofar as the making of indigency determinations involves the resolution of questions of fact, which is a judicial and not a legislative function, control by the legislature over such determinations is an impermissible interference with the authority of another department of government. Accordingly, those provisions of L. 1981, ch. 157 which require the submission of such rules and regulations to the legislature and which make any rules and regulations so adopted binding on district courts are unconstitutional as violative of the separation of powers doctrine. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 22-4501, 22-4504 (as amended by L. 1981, ch. 157, section 1), 22-4507, K.S.A. 22-4512, K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 22-4514, 77-415 (as amended by L. 1981, ch. 157, section 3), Kansas Constitution, Article 3, Section 1, United States Bill of Rights, Sixth Amendment, Fourteenth Amendment.

Book Description
The statutory requirements for the execution of deeds and other instruments for the conveyance of a corporation's real property or an interest therein are prescribed by K.S.A. 17-6003(g). As long as there is compliance with such requirements, provisions in the corporation's bylaws requiring execution of such instruments by officers of the corporation in addition to those specified in said statute are permissible. However, failure to comply with these bylaw requirements does not, as a general rule, affect the validity of a conveyance made in compliance with the statutory requirements. Cited herein: K.S.A. 17-6003, K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 17-6009, G.S. 1868, ch. 23, section 38.
