Book Description
In B̲e̲l̲l̲o̲t̲t̲i̲ ̲v̲.̲ ̲B̲a̲i̲r̲d̲, 443 U.S. 622, 995 S. Ct. 3035, 61 L. Ed. 2d 797 (1979) (plurality opinion) the United States Supreme Court held that the United States Constitution would permit a state to require a pregnant minor to obtain parental consent to an abortion if the state provided an alternative procedure whereby the minor could establish that she was mature enough to make the decision on her own or that it would be in her best interests to have the abortion. Since 1988 House Bill No. 2950 establishes such an alternative procedure, it is our opinion that its parental consent requirements would pass constitutional muster. Cited herein: 1988 House Bill No. 2950.

Assuming the Kansas Commission on Civil Rights (KCCR) otherwise has the authority to waive jurisdiction over employment and housing discrimination complaints filed by its employees, it is our opinion that the KCCR would not be precluded by the Equal Protection Clause from doing so.

Book Description
Through the imposition of fines for unlawful conduct, K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 8-1901(d) imposes criminal liability. In addition, subsection (a) of that statute does not appear to violate the United States Constitution's Equal Protection Clause, although it only imposes liability upon a limited class of persons. Moreover, that subsection appears to convey a sufficiently definite warning as to the conduct proscribed therein, so as to avoid being unconstitutionally vague and uncertain. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 8-1901, 8-1909, K.S.A. 8-2116, 8-2204, 21-3105, K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 21-4503, U.S. Const., Amend. XIV.

Book Description
1988 Substitute for House Bill No. 2219 does not violate Art. 2, section 16 of the Kansas Constitution which prohibits a bill from containing more than one subject. The Kansas courts have ruled that a statute should not be declared invalid under this provision unless invalidity is manifest. It is not clearly manifest that H.B. 2219 contains more than one subject, as both bills that were combined in the final version of H.B. 2219 concern animal welfare. None of the circumstances for which Art. 2, section 16 was designed to prevent are present in this case. Further, the title of H.B. 2219 clearly expresses the subject matter and gives fair notice of the content of the bill as constitutionally required. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 21-1213; 1988 Substitute for House Bill No. 2219; Kan. Const. Art. 2, section 16.
