Book Description
K.S.A. 19-2758 requires that only persons who are taxpayers, residents of an improvement district, and otherwise qualified to vote pursuant to the Constitution of the State of Kansas will be allowed to vote in any improvement district election. Therefore, merely owning real property within the proposed improvement district is insufficient to qualify an individual to vote in any such election, including a bond election under K.S.A. 19-2768. Cited herein: K.S.A. 19-2753, 19-2758, 19-2768.

Book Description
The requirement of K.S.A. 25-208a, that the validity of a candidate's declaration of intent be determined by an election officer within three days of its filing, is directory only. Thus, an election officer may make such determination within a period of time after the declaration is filed that is reasonable under all the attending facts and circumstances. Within three days after a candidate's receipt of notice that an election officer has found such candidate's declaration of intent to be invalid, the candidate may file written objections to such finding. Where the secretary of state has erroneously certified a candidate, pursuant to K.S.A. 25-209, as having filed a valid declaration of intent, the secretary of state has an implied legal duty to correct the error when it is discovered. However, in the absence of an actual set of facts and circumstances, the secretary of state's proper course of action and the legal consequences thereof, cannot be determined. Cited herein: K.S.A. 25-206, 25-208a, 25-209, 25-308.

Book Description
A register of deeds is required to file of record a written instrument whereby real estate may be affected. Such filing can properly be refused only if the instrument contains apparent errors, or is not proved or acknowledged, and certified in the manner prescribed by law, or the register of deeds has been directed by a court not to file the instrument. Of course, a register of deeds also may refuse to file instruments that clearly do not affect real estate, or where the law requires some act, such as payment of the mortgage registration fee, before the instrument may be received and filed of record. Cited herein: K.S.A. 58-2221.

Book Description
The sole issue to be resolved at an administrative herring held under the "implied consent" law (K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1001) is the reasonableness of a person's refusal to submit to a request to take a blood-alcohol test. At the hearing, the only testimony needed from the arresting officer is the sworn report required in the statute, and if the sworn report addresses the necessary issues, there is no need for the officer to attend the hearing. However, if the sworn report fails to discuss whether the licensee was capable of making a voluntary response to the request to submit to a blood-alcohol test, and it appears that this issue will be raised in the administrative hearing, the testimony of the arresting officer is essential and the attendance of the arresting officer may be compelled by subpoena [K.S.A. 8-255(b)]. Cited herein: K.S.A. 8-255, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1001 and K.S.A. 54-101.

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.
