Book Description
The legislature has recognized various technologies which may be used in counting and tabulating votes cast by electors. The ability to use stickers for the purpose of casting a vote for a write-in candidate and the form such stickers must take is dependent in part on the type of technology used in counting and tabulating votes. If the voter's intent can be derived from the ballot despite the fact the ballot does not contain a mark in the square to the left of the write-in candidate's name, the ballot should be counted. Cited herein: K.S.A. 25-601; 25-612; 25-619; 25-1301; 25-1330; 25-2706; 25-2902; 25-2903; 25-4401; 25-4404; 25-4406; 25-4409; 25-4410; 25-4601; 25-4604; 25-4609; 25-4613; K.A.R. 7-29-2.

Book Description
The United States constitution has delegated to congress the power to determine the qualifications of its own members and to expel its members when necessary. Because this is a power reserved for the individual houses of congress, the tenth amendment of the United States constitution does not reserve to the states the authority to remove members of congress from office. K.S.A. 25-4301 et seq. are not applicable to members of congress. Cited herein: K.S.A. 25-4301; 25-4304; U.S. Const., art. 1, sec. 5, amend. 10.

Book Description
The residence of a pupil for the purpose of attending school is not limited to the residence or domicile of the parents. A child may attend school in a particular school district if the child lives with a resident of the school district who has actual care and control of the child and is supporting the child or has the written consent of the child's parents. State law does not recognize the intention of the pupil for changing the pupil's living arrangements as a factor to be considered when determining whether a pupil may attend school in a particular school district. State law does not obligate each school district to suspend or expel a pupil who has engaged in any of the activities set forth in K.S.A. 72-8901; rather, discretion is given each school district to determine for which offenses a pupil of the school district may be suspended or expelled. A school district does not possess the authority to suspend or expel a pupil from attending school in another school district. Given this limitation of authority, the fact that a pupil has been expelled from attending school in the former school district does not result in expulsion from attending school in the present school district. K.S.A. 72-8905excuses a pupil from compulsory attendance in a school district once the pupil has been suspended or expelled from that particular school district. However, if the place of residence of the pupil is moved to another school district, the pupil is once again subject to K.S.A. 72-1111. Cited herein: K.S.A. 72-961; 72-1046; 72-1111; 72-1113; 72-8901; 72-8903; 72-8904; 72-8905; Kan. Const., art. 6, sec. 2; L. 1970, ch. 300.

Book Description
1993 house bill no. 2070 amended the water transfer act, specifically K.S.A. 82a-1504(c), eliminating the legislative oversight of water transfers. The amendment contained procedural changes that are applied retroactively unless the legislature indicates otherwise. Thus the legislative review requirement in the former statute, K.S.A. 82a-1504(c) (Ensley 1989), does not apply to a water transfer in litigation during the amendment of the statute wherein the legislative oversight provision was eliminated. Cited herein: K.S.A. 65-4801; 82a-701; 82a-1504 (Ensley 1989); K.S.A. 1993 Supp. 82a-1504; K.S.A. 82a-5801.
