Legislative Research Commission Note (6/8/2011). 2011 Ky. Acts ch. 2, sec. 69, directed that a new section of KRS Chapter 196 be created for this statute. However, during codification, the Reviser of Statutes determined that it was more appropriately placed within KRS Chapter 441, relating to jails and county prisoners, and created the new section as KRS § 441.207 under the authority of KRS § 7.136.
