Unified School District v. Hedrick

The opinion of the court was delivered by This is an action in mandamus to compel the State Auditor
(defendant-appellee) to register a temporary note in the amount
of $100,000.00, issued by plaintiff-appellant (Unified School
District No. 259), pursuant to alleged authorization by electors
at a special school district election on September 20, 1966. In
refusing
[203 Kan. 479]
to register the note the State Auditor relied on Board of
Education v. Powers, 142 Kan. 664, 51 P.2d 421. Relying
primarily on that case, the district court overruled plaintiff's
motion for summary judgment; sustained that of defendant, and
filed a comprehensive memorandum opinion in which many cases
dealing with the subject were reviewed. This appeal followed.
