Book Description
The definitions of "merchant," "manufacturer" and "inventory" in K.S.A. 1988 Supp. 79-201m are drafted broadly enough to encompass coal and gas held by a public utility for resale or to use in generating electricity. Therefore, such property is eligible for a tax exemption as merchants' or manufacturers' inventory pursuant to article 11, section 1 of the Kansas Constitution. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1988 Supp. 79-201m; 79-213; K.S.A. 79-5a01 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲.; K.S.A. 1988 Supp. 79-3602; K.S.A. 84-9-109; K.S.A. 79-1001 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. (repealed, L. 1988, ch. 375, section 9); Kan. Const., Art. 11, section 1.

Book Description
42 U.S.C. 290aa, Part C, Sec. 523b(1) prohibits the use of federally provided amounts as a non-federal match contribution. Once a recipient provider has properly received Medicaid reimbursement funds and is free to expend them in any legally permissible manner, those funds become the freely alienable property of that recipient. Thus, such a recipient and not the federal government provides the funds which may thereafter be used to match a grant pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 290aa, Part C, Sec. 523(a). Cited herein: 42 U.S.C. 290aa, Part C, Sec. 523; 42 U.S.C.A. 1396; 42 C.F.R. 74.53; 42 C.F.R. 433.45; K.S.A. 39-701, 39-717, 75-3301, 75-5301; K.A.R. 30-5-58.

Book Description
Under the United States Supreme Court decision in H̲a̲z̲e̲l̲w̲o̲o̲d̲ ̲S̲c̲h̲o̲o̲l̲ ̲D̲i̲s̲t̲r̲i̲c̲t̲ ̲v̲.̲ ̲K̲u̲h̲l̲m̲e̲i̲e̲̲r̲, local public school officials and administrators may exercise reasonable control over activities sponsored by a public school such as publications, theatrical productions and other expressive activities so long as the educators' actions are reasonably related to legitimate pedagogical concerns and there is no intent to create a public forum. Also, Section 11 of the Kansas Bill of Rights does not provide an absolute right to freedom of speech and expression. Students in private, accredited schools are subject to reasonable school regulations. The H̲a̲z̲e̲l̲w̲o̲o̲d̲ decision applies to public schools on its facts, and does not apply to non-public schools. Cited herein: Kans. Const., B. of R., section 11; U.S. Const., Amend. I, XIV.

Book Description
K.S.A. 12-3005 prescribes that "[t]he style or ordaining clause of all ordinances shall be: 'Be it ordained by the governing body of the city of ___________:'". This requirement is mandatory, and a proposed ordinance submitted under the provisions of K.S.A. 12-3013 must include an ordaining clause. As Ordinance No. 112-A of the city of Olathe contains no such clause, it is our opinion that the "ordinance" is void and unenforceable. Cited herein: K.S.A. 12-3005; 12-3013; Kan. Const., Art. 2, section 20.

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
While registration acts generally do not restrict the practice of a regulated profession, the legislature may by statute place limitations on the scope of practice. The legislative history of K.S.A. 1988 Supp. 65-5812(e) reflects the plain meaning and intent of the words used in this provision. Thus, registered professional counselors may not diagnose or treat mental illness or disease. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1988 Supp. 65-5001; 65-5801; 65-5802; 65-5803; 65-5812; 74-7507.
