Legislative Research Commission Note (7/15/96; modified 1/7/98). The KRS references contained in subsections (1) and (3) of this statute have been codified as
those references were enacted in 1996 Ky. Acts ch. 99 (Senate Bill 105), sec. 5, but
it appears that these statute references may be erroneous. Subsection (1) contained a
reference to Section 1 of the Act (KRS 403.725), but from context it appears that
Section 4 of the Act (KRS 403.7521) may have been intended; subsection (3)
contained a reference to Section 4 of the Act (KRS 403.7521), but from context it
appears that Section 2 of the Act (KRS 403.750) may have been intended. (Modified
to correct a mistaken subsection reference.)
