Book Description
In granting the department of social and rehabilitation services a claim against the estates and payable on death accounts of certain decedents who had received assistance, the legislature intended that the claims be enforced by existing provisions of the probate and civil codes and did not intend to grant the department independent authority to order payment.

Book Description
If in "refinancing" a debt that it has previously assigned, along with the mortgage, to another entity, the mortgagee settles or satisfies the assigned debt, mortgage registration fees would be due upon filing the "new" mortgage of record. The result is the same even if the assignee of the original debt is the parent corporation of the assignor. However, registers of deeds must rely on statements made in sworn affidavits unless those statements are clearly false. Cited herein: K.S.A. 58-2318; 58-2323; K.S.A. 1992 Supp. 79-3102.

Book Description
Based on I̲n̲ ̲r̲e̲ ̲A̲p̲p̲l̲i̲c̲a̲t̲i̲o̲n̲ ̲o̲f̲ ̲N̲o̲e̲l̲ ̲f̲o̲r̲ ̲D̲i̲s̲c̲h̲a̲r̲g̲e̲ ̲H̲e̲a̲r̲i̲n̲g̲, 17 Kan. App. 2d 303 (1992), it is our opinion that K.S.A. 1991 Supp. 22-3428(3), as amended, and K.S.A. 1991 Supp. 22-3428a(3), which are used to determine the need for continued commitment of insanity acquittees, violate the due process and equal protection clauses of the 14th amendment by not placing the burden of proof upon the state to show by clear and convincing evidence both the committed person's continued insanity and dangerousness. However, rather than striking the statutes down, the Court of Appeals engrafted the essential requirements onto the statutes. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1991 Supp. 22-3428, as amended by L. 1992, ch. 309, section 3; 22-3428a.

Book Description
Pursuant to K.S.A. 75-6108(a) and 75-6109 of the tort claims act, governmental entities are required to provide a defense and pay the judgment for a claim for actual damages against an employee arising out of an act which occurred in the scope of employment and absent actual fraud or malice on the part of the employee. It is discretionary with the governmental entity to reimburse an employee for costs incurred in defending a claim for punitive or exemplary damages arising out of an act occurring in the scope of employment, and the governmental entity may discretionarily pay any part of the judgment rendered on such claims. K.S.A. 75-6116 contains similar provisions for civil rights claims except that the governmental entity may discretionarily pay any portion of the judgment only if the employee's act or omission was not a result of actual fraud or malice. Cited herein: K.S.A. 75-6108; 75-6109; 75-6116.

Book Description
Simply stated, the public purpose doctrine permits the spending of public funds only for public purposes. A benefit to specific individuals does not necessarily deprive the expenditure of its public character if the benefit is incidental to the primary purpose of promoting the public welfare. In our opinion, the cost-share program that provides public monies to assist landowners in plugging their abandoned wells serves the public welfare. The program was implemented in response to the federal water pollution control act (commonly referred to as the clean water act) to expeditiously restore and maintain the biological integrity of the nation's waters. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1991 Supp. 65-101; 65-164; K.S.A. 65-171a; 75-5657; 82a-1213; 82a-1214; 33 U.S.C. sections 1251, 1329, 1362.
