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.

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
A police officer has express authorization stated in the law to impound a vehicle driven by a defendant arrested under certain circumstances. However, even though such officer is responsible for taking appropriate measures to protect the property of an arrested person, the question of whether the officer's failure to impound such vehicle constitutes a breach of duty, creating an exposure to tort liability, must be resolved by a competent trier of fact in light of all relevant facts and circumstances. Cited herein: K.S.A. 8-1570, K.S.A. 1979 Supp. 75-6103.

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
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
Under K.S.A. 1976 Supp. 25-4302, the only grounds for recall are conviction of a felony, misconduct in office, incompetence and failure to perform a duty prescribed by law. Facts recited in a petition as grounds which do not support any of the four statutory bases for recall are insufficient. However, the county election officer has no authority to determine the legal sufficiency of grounds alleged in a recall petition which is presented for filing, and the sufficiency of grounds, if challenged, must be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The sufficiency of grounds for a recall election may not be challenged after the question is submitted to the voters. A petition may be circulated only by a sponsor within the precinct where such sponsor resides.
