Book Description
The county treasurer has control over the means by which the duties imposed under the state motor vehicle registration laws are to be fulfilled. Thus, the county treasurer, and not the board of county commissioners, has the authority to fix the salaries of the necessary help needed to fulfill those duties. However, the county has no responsibility or authority to give financial assistance to the county treasurer in regard to the administration of the state motor vehicle registration laws. The financial resources available to the county treasurer to administer these laws are confined, by K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-145, to the amount deposited in the special fund provided for in that statute. (Attorney General Opinion No. 77-39 is withdrawn.) Cited herein: K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-145.

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 1982 Senate Bill No. 699, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567 provides [at subsection (n)] that a city may enact an ordinance which prohibits or makes unlawful the same acts as are dealt with by the statute, provided that the ordinance's minimum penalties are the same as the statutes for any given violation, and the ordinance's maximum penalty does not exceed that of the statute. Apart from these limits, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567 as amended does not preempt a city from taking action in this area. As amended by 1982 Senate Bill No. 699, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567(c), (d) and (e) prohibit a prosecuting attorney from entering into any plea-bargaining agreement by which a defendant enters a guilty or no contest plea to a lesser offense than that originally charged. While no sanctions against such conduct exist under the statute, provisions of the general ouster law could be applied against prosecuting attorneys who violate the prohibition against plea-bargaining. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 8-1567, as amended by 1982 Senate Bill No. 699, K.S.A. 22-2907, 22-2908.

Book Description
Pursuant to K.S.A. 17-1311, a cemetery corporation is required to deposit a portion (15%) of the purchase price of each burial lot in a trust fund, income from which is to be used solely for the permanent maintenance of the cemetery. "Maintenance" includes those expenditures which relate to the physical upkeep of the cemetery grounds, a fact made explicit by the legislature in an amendment to the statute in 1978. However, a determination whether a specific item of expenditure is maintenance-related is a question of fact which may only be determined by a court. Cited herein: K.S.A. 17-1311, L. 1978, ch. 76, sec. 1.
