120.360 Prohibition of agreement by candidate not to contest election. It shall be unlawful for any candidate in any primary or general election to agree not to file a suit contesting the election, or to agree to dismiss or cease prosecuting such suit after it has been filed, in consideration of the payment or promise to pay to him, or to any other person, of any money, deputyship, clerkship, employment, or anything of value by such successful candidate or by any other person. Any person who violates this section shall be ineligible thereafter to hold, or become a candidate for nomination or election to, any public office in this state, or to have his name printed on any official ballot in a primary or general election. Any qualified voter may maintain an action to enjoin the printing of the name of a person upon the official ballots for any primary or general election, on the ground that such person has violated this section, and in such action the violation may be proved by parol evidence. History: Created 1974 Ky. Acts ch. 130, sec. 177.
