KU Law Professors Do Research Work To Aid in Revision of Kansas Statutes
Professors of the KU School of Law are doing research work for committees appointed to revise Kansas statutes.
Prof. Charles H. Oldfather is working on annotations of present Kansas law concerning business and banking transactions. His research could mean the possible acceptance of the Uniform Commercial Code by the Kansas Legislature.
Prof. Oldfather said that the legislative council felt it desirable to have the existing code annotated.
"BEGINNING after the war, the American Law Institute and the National Conference of Committees on Uniform State Laws put together theUniform Commercial Code, he
said.
The code puts into one statutory form most of the laws dealing with business and banking transactions.
According to Prof. Oldfather some 28 states have enacted this code.
Lawyers and professors are working on the annotations, according to Prof. Oldfather. He said that the annotations are anticipated to be completed in time for the Legislative Council to make recommendations for the next general session of the legislature.
"THE CODE supplants a great scattered body of statutory law and clarifies the law. It represents a marked improvement in many areas of law," he said.
Prof. Dan Hopson Jr. has been appointed by the judicial council as reporter for the committee working on the revision of laws dealing with the admission of patients to mental hospitals.
Prof. Hopson said that at the request of the legislature the judicial council, made up of judges and lawyers, appointed a committee in each area to do background work for proposals to the legislature.
"THE COMMITTEE is attempting to revise the laws dealing with commitment procedures, the guardianship of persons under disability, and all statutes that relate to mental illness, and bring them up to date," Prof. Hopson said.
