Legislative Research Commission Note. This section was amended by four 1982 Acts
which do not appear to be in conflict and have been compiled together. This section
was amended in 1982 Acts Chapter 445, which contains the following language in
Section 45 of that Act: "This Act shall become effective on July 1, 1982." The Ky.
Constitution, in Section 55, requires that a reason be set forth for the emergency.
However, no reason is set forth in this Act. The effective date for 1982 Acts with no
emergency provision is July 15, 1982. Although a reference to mental health
proceedings under KRS Ch. 387 was added in (1) of this section by 1982 Acts ch.
445, sec. 34, the provisions of KRS Ch. 387 relating to such proceedings were
repealed by 1982 Acts ch. 141, sec. 146.
Note: 1980 Ky. Acts ch. 396, sec. 30 would have amended this section effective July 1,
1982. However, 1980 Ky. Acts ch. 396 was repealed by 1982 Ky. Acts ch. 141,
sec. 146, also effective July 1, 1982.
