Legislative Research Commission Note (9/1/92). Pursuant to KRS § 7.136, the Reviser of Statutes has changed an incorrect reference to KRS § 243.030 contained in subsection (2) of this statute back to KRS § 243.020. Apparently, a typographical error occurred in this reference in 1978 Ky. Acts ch. 233, sec. 24; however, the text as
originally found in 1942 Ky. Acts ch. 208, sec. 1 (KRS ch. 243, p. 24) referenced KRS § 243.020, and subsequent amendments of the statute have not changed that reference. Cf. KRS § 446.270 and KRS § 446.280.
