Book Description
If the physician on duty at a treatment facility believes a person who is detained pursuant to K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 59-2908(b) to be a mentally ill person, but the treatment facility will not admit such person, the peace officer who has taken the person into custody is responsible for transporting the suspected mentally ill person to a "suitable place" of detention, even if the only suitable place available is outside the officer's normal territorial jurisdiction. Cited herein: K.S.A. 22-2401a, 59-2902, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 59-2908.

Book Description
K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567(c), as amended by section 5 of Senate Bill No. 699, establishes penalties for persons convicted of their first violation of the statute. Prior to the 1982 amendment, the subsection authorized a court to punish first time violators by imposing a specified jail sentence or a specified fine, "or by both such fine and imprisonment." In the amended statute, the word "and" replaces the word "or" between the term of imprisonment and the amount of the fine, although the phrase "or by both such fine and imprisonment" is retained. In that the intent of the legislature in altering the disjunctive "or" to the conjunctive "and" was to require both forms of punishment, the additional phrase allowing such is now mere verbiage, and adds nothing to the statute. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567, as amended by L. 1982, ch. 144, section 5.

Book Description
As amended by L. 1982, ch. 144, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567 contains new provisions for the sentencing of persons who are convicted of operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol. Additionally, the act amends K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1001 to admit into evidence the defendant's refusal to take a chemical test for the presence of alcohol. While the act does not specifically provide that these changes will apply only to offenses committed after its effective date of July 1, 1982, such a result is necessary in view of the substantive, as opposed to merely procedural, nature of these two amendments. Accordingly, the above-referenced amendments are applicable only to offenses committed after the effective date of the act. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1001, 8-1567, both as amended by L. 1982, ch. 144, K.S.A. 21-3102, 22-4618.

Book Description
As amended by L. 1982, ch. 144, section 5, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567 provides that a person convicted of a violation of the offense of operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol may be required to perform public or community service work as an alternative to incarceration or payment of a fine. In assigning the work to be performed, a judge or court services division would be exercising judicial and discretionary functions, respectively, and would be exempt from liability under the Tort Claims Act, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 75-6101 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. However, as noted by Attorney General Opinion Nos. 81-98 and 82-157, the recipient organization (including local governments and non-profit corporations) may be liable for injuries and damages inflicted or suffered by persons acting within the scope of their designated community service duties. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567 (as amended by L. 1982, ch. 144, section 5), K.S.A. 21-4610, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 75-6102, 75-6104.

Cited herein: K.S.A. 21-4501 (as amended by L. 1982, ch. 137, section 1), 21-4608 (as amended by L. 1982, ch. 150, section 1), 22-3718, U.S. Const., Art. I, section 9.

Book Description
As provided by K.S.A. 16-6a02, the Kansas investment certificate guaranty corporation is governed by a board of directors. Subsection (c) of the statute requires the corporate by-laws to provide that the "initial" board of directors contain four classes of members. These classes, of equal number, represent large, medium and small companies, as well as the general public. In the absence of any statutory provision allowing these classes to be abolished, thus depriving one or more of them of board representation, the provisions of the statute apply to both the initial and subsequent boards of directors. Cited herein: K.S.A. 16-6a02, 16-6a03, 16-6a05, 16-6a07.

Book Description
The terms defined in K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 77-415(4) (as amended by section 1 of 1982 House Bill No. 2712) have the meanings ascribed thereto only when such terms are used in the Rules and Regulations Filing Act (K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 77-415 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲., and amendments thereto), except where it is clear that the use of such terms in other statutes is intended by the legislature to convey such meanings. Thus, plans, bulletins, policy manuals and other documents issued by state agencies are not rules and regulations under the filing act, unless they meet the definitional criteria of "rule and regulation" in K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 77-415(4) (as amended). However, unless otherwise specifically provided by statute, such plans, bulletins, policy manuals and other documents which satisfy these definitional criteria do not have the force and effect of law, unless they are promulgated as rules and regulations pursuant to the filing act and filed with the Office of the Revisor of Statutes. Unless altered by legislative enactment, the procedure prescribed in the filing act for legislative oversight and review of rules and regulations may not be extended so as to include plans, bulletins, policy manuals and other documents of state agencies which have not been promulgated in compliance with the filing act. Cited herein: K.S.A. 46-1201, 46-1206, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 72-961, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 77-415, 77-416, 77-420 and 77-421 (as amended by sections 1,2,3 and 4, respectively, of 1982 House Bill No. 2712), K.S.A. 77-425, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 77-426 (as amended by section 7 of 1982 House Bill No. 2712), 77-436; 1982 House Bill Nos. 2724 and 3151.
