Book Description
K.S.A. 19-702 provides that it is the duty of the county attorney to prosecute all cases arising out of the criminal statutes of this state which arise in his or her county. If such a violation occurs, it is immaterial whether it takes place within or without the limits of any city located in the county, or whether the officer issuing the citation or making the arrest is an employee of the city or county. In any violation of a state criminal statute, it is the function of the county attorney to prosecute, and such prosecution may not be declined, or additional conditions attached (i̲.̲e̲.̲ payment of costs) on the grounds that the violation took place within the city. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 8-1567, K.S.A. 12-4111, 12-4113, 19-702, 19-706b.

Book Description
Because K.S.A. 1996 Supp. 79-2101 is nonuniform and the suggested changes would not trigger any of the other limitations imposed by K.S.A. 1996 Supp. 19-101a, Ellis County may enact a charter resolution containing deadlines different from those stated in the statute. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1996 Supp. 19-101a; 79-2017; 79-2101; L. 1977, ch. 109, sections 39, 40; L. 1979, ch. 312, sections 4, 5; L. 1980, ch. 308, sections 5, 6; L. 1984, ch. 147, sections 20, 21; L. 1985, ch. 319, sections 1, 2; L. 1990, ch. 349, sections 1, 2.

Book Description
The legislature may refuse to appropriate moneys to provide funds for a̲ ̲p̲a̲r̲t̲i̲c̲u̲l̲a̲r̲ lease of office space already entered into by a state agency and may direct that no appropriated moneys shall be used for such purpose. However, the legislature may not prescribe that an agency may not enter into a̲n̲y̲ lease for office space without the prior approval of the State Finance Council or some other legislatively-dominated committee. Such a limitation on prospective action by a state agency violates the doctrine of separation of powers and is unconstitutional. Attorney General Opinion No. 81-83 is reaffirmed. Cited herein: K.S.A. 75-3708, 75-3711, K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 75 -3711c, 75-3725a, L. 1984, ch. 23, section 5, L. 1984, ch. 244, sections 1, 2, 23, L. 1981, ch. 32, section 69.

Book Description
While the state may require abortions to be performed in licensed facilities from and after the first trimester, K.S.A. 21-3407 sweeps too broadly and the offending provisions cannot be severed from the rest without legislative amendment. We note that the United States Supreme Court is currently considering a case which may modify Roe v. Wade, and thus render this opinion invalid. Cited herein: K.S.A. 21-3407.

Book Description
The land surveyors' licensing statute, K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 74-2044, is constitutional as a valid exercise of the police powers of the state. The exemption from examination found in subsection (b) of this statute is within the discretion of the governing body and evidences an attempt to not unduly burden engineers currently practicing land surveying under their engineering license. In addition, unless mandated by statute, the Board of Technical Professions, as the administrative agency, is under no obligation to provide notice of statutory changes to those affected by the legislation. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 74-7022, K.S.A. 74-7034 (Ensley 1985), Kan. Const., Art. 2, sections 18.
