Book Description
K.S.A. 75-4319(b)(2) authorizes public bodies subject to the Kansas Open Meetings Act (KOMA) to recess into an executive session for the purpose of "consultation with an attorney for the body or agency which would be deemed privileged in the attorney-client relationship ..." The term "consultation" as used in the KOMA necessarily implies the presence of an attorney. Even though a letter from an attorney to his client containing advice is a privileged communication, we must conclude that members of a public body cannot recess into an executive session to review and discuss among themselves a letter from their attorney. Therefore, it is our opinion that the "consultation with an attorney" exception to the open meetings law cannot be invoked unless the attorney for the body is present. Cited herein: K.S.A. 60-426; 75-4317; K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 75-4318(a); K.S.A. 75-4319.

Book Description
A search warrant maybe issued by a district magistrate judge upon the sworn oral or written statement of a city attorney. Municipal law enforcement officers may execute such warrant, and property seized pursuant to the warrant may be admissible as evidence in a municipal court. However, K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 8-1001(f) precludes the use of a search warrant to obtain a blood sample from a person who has refused to submit to a blood, breath or urine test pursuant to that statute. An ordinance authorizing such procedure would be in conflict with the state statute prohibiting further testing after an informed refusal. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 8-1001, as amended by L. 1986, ch. 40, section 2; K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 8-1005, as amended by L. 1986, ch. 41, section 1; K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 8-1567(m); K.S.A. 12-4504; K.S.A. 1985 Supp. 22-2202, as amended by L. 1986, ch. 133, section 1; K.S.A. 22-2502; 22-2503; 22-2507; L. 1986, ch. 40, section 1.

It is the public policy of this state that public records must be open for inspection by any person unless otherwise provided by law.

Book Description
Based on the nominee's personal data form as submitted to the Supreme Court Nominating Commission, said nominee does not meet the qualification in K.S.A. 20-105 of having engaged in the active and continuous practice of law for a period of ten years prior to the date of appointment as justice. The active practice of law has been defined by the Supreme Court of Kansas as meaning that the legal activities of the individual must have been pursued on a full-time basis and constituted his regular business. The nominee is not automatically disqualified because of having held the positions to which he has been appointed, but because his personal data form does not indicate that his legal activities while holding those positions were "pursued on a full-time basis and constituted his regular business." In making the ultimate determination of whether this nominee is qualified, the Supreme Court Nominating Commission may consider additional information regarding specific legal services performed by the nominee in his various employments and may thus reach a contrary conclusion. Cited herein: K.S.A. 20-105.
