Book Description
Pursuant to the State Water Plan Storage Act, K.S.A. 82a-1301 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲., the Kansas Water Resources Board and its successor, the Kansas Water Office, are empowered to enter into contracts for the withdrawal and use of waters held in storage by the state. Waters so withdrawn and used by a purchaser are subject to a charge fixed by the respective state agency not less than 5 cents nor more than 10 cents per one thousand gallons of water. Such contracts, which may have a term of up to 40 years, must contain a provision by which such charges are reviewed at least every ten years, although the parties to the contract can agree to a more frequent review. Although the Water Office may establish on an annual basis the rate used for all contracts entered into during that year (K.S.A. 82a-1308), such rate may not be altered thereafter, except as provided by the contract. Accordingly, the provisions of 1983 Senate Bill No. 61 which provide for annual adjustments of the water charge may not be applied to contracts entered into and approved by the legislature prior to the effective date of the bill. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 74-2615, K.S.A. 82a-1305, 82a-1306, 82a-1308, 82a-1316, 1983 Senate Bill No. 61.

Book Description
A farm winery licensed under K.S.A. 1984 Supp. 41-308a may manufacture, store and sell domestic table wines. While a provision which would have allowed a farm winery to provide free samples of its products was included in a 1983 bill (Substitute for House Bill No. 2551), such a provision was deleted before the measure became law. L. 1983, ch. 161, section 3. In view of Article 15, Section 10 of the Kansas Constitution and cases which have interpreted its prohibition against the operation of an "open saloon" in this state, samples of wine could not be distributed, even on a complimentary basis, to persons who were not "guests" of the owner. As used in the intoxicating liquor laws, the term "guest" is defined to exclude those individuals who are not personally known to the owner. Therefore, only a private party organized by the owner of the winery to which guests are invited would be in compliance with the constitution and with provisions of Kansas liquor laws dealing with consumption of liquor in public and private places. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1984 Supp. 41-102; 41-308a; K.S.A. 41-719; 41-803; 41-2602; 41-2604; K.A.R. 1983 Supp. 14-18-4; L. 1983, ch. 161; Kan. Const., Art. 15, section 10.

Book Description
K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 75-4218 provides that all state bank accounts shall be secured by a pledge of securities owned by each bank receiving a deposit. The term "securities" is defined by K.S.A. 75-4201(p)(1) to include direct obligations of, or obligations that are insured by, the United States government or one of its agencies. By virtue of 12 U.S.C. 52001 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲., federal land banks, land bank associations, production credit associations, intermediate credit banks and banks for cooperatives are "federally chartered instrumentalities". This term has been interpreted by courts in Kansas and elsewhere as not raising them to the level of federal agencies. Accordingly, under K.S.A. 75-4201 as it now reads, obligations of these federally chartered instrumentalities may not be pledged to secure the deposit of state funds in Kansas banks. However, due to a 1983 amendment to K.S.A. 1984 Supp. 19-1402, such obligations may be used as security for the deposit of m̲u̲n̲i̲c̲i̲p̲a̲l̲ funds. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 9-1402; K.S.A. 75-4201; K.S.A. 1985 Supp 75-4218; L. 1983, ch. 47, section 3; 12 U.S.C. sections 2011, 2012, 2031, 2033, 2071, 2072, 2091, 2093, 2121, 2122, 2155, 2157.

Book Description
No provision of the Code of Procedure for Municipal Courts, or any other statutory provision, grants general authority to cities to penalize ordinance violations by imprisonment for a term commensurate to that of a felony. Further, cities do not have such authority under constitutional home rule powers, since punishment of serious offenses, for which a term of imprisonment in excess of one year may be imposed, is not a "local affair," as said term is used in Article 12, section 5 of the Kansas Constitution. However, where the state of Kansas has, by statute, delegated to cities the authority to impose such a sentence with respect to a particular ordinance violation, a municipal judge may validly impose the sentence. The state of Kansas has delegated such authority with respect to third or subsequent violations of Section 31 of the S̲t̲a̲n̲d̲a̲r̲d̲ ̲T̲r̲a̲f̲f̲i̲̲c̲ ̲O̲r̲d̲i̲n̲a̲n̲̲c̲e̲ ̲o̲f̲ ̲K̲a̲n̲s̲a̲s̲ ̲C̲i̲t̲i̲e̲s̲, but has not delegated such authority with respect to violations, for a third or subsequent time, of Section 192 of said Ordinance. Cited herein: K.S.A. 8-262, 8-1401, 8-1568, 8-2001, 8-2204, 12-4101, 12-4104, 12-4509, 12-4510, 13-401, 13-424, 13-601, 14-401, 14-439, 14-801, 15-440, 15-501, 20-1401, 20-1403, 20-1424, 20-1428, 20-1501, 20-1502, 20-1601, 20-1603, 20-1801, 20-1803, 20-1901, 20-1902, 20-2001, 20-2002, 20-2101, 20-2102, L. 1965, ch. 90, section 1, L. 1973, ch. 61, section 12-4702, Kan. Const., Art. 12, section 5.

Book Description
For purposes of civil proceedings under the Code for Care of Children, the legislature defined types of behavior which would constitute sexual abuse by reference to sex offenses in the criminal code, however, it did not thereby intend to adopt a criminal definition of sexual abuse. Thus, while certain acts described as sex offenses in the criminal statutes may not be punishable crimes if committed with a child age 16 years or older; those same acts may constitute abuse of that child under the definition of that term in the Code for Care of Children. Cited herein: K.S.A. 21-3501, 21-3503, 21-3504 as amended by L. 1983, ch. 109; 21-3509, 21-3510, 21-3511, 21-3516, K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 38-1502 as amended by L. 1983, ch. 140, 42 U.S.C. sections 5102, 5104, 45 C.F.R. section 1340.2, 1340.14, 48 Fed. Reg. 3698 (January 26, 1983).
