Competitive Auto Ramp Servs. v. Ky. Unemployment Ins. Comm'n, NO. 2005-CA-001952-MR, COURT OF APPEALS OF KENTUCKY, April 27, 2007, Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: Finding that a corporation was a successor employer under former Ky. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 341.540 was error because the record was devoid of any evidence of a "connection, negotiation, or transaction" between the corporation and the predecessor company. Absent such evidence, the corporation was not a successor employer.

Cross v. Commonwealth, NO. 2005-CA-001796-MR, COURT OF APPEALS OF KENTUCKY, April 27, 2007, Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: Although two-year delay between indictment and trial was presumptively prejudicial, right to speedy trial was not violated where the delay was not occasioned by the Commonwealth's deliberate attempt to delay trial, there was no evidence defendant suffered above normal levels of anxiety, and defendant's ability to mount a defense was not impeded.

Knight v. Spurlin, NO. 2005-CA-002128-MR, COURT OF APPEALS OF KENTUCKY, April 27, 2007, Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: Although a county executive procrastinated in performing his duty to propose a county code, the county's fiscal court violated Ky. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 67.710(2) when it proposed and adopted its own code, and its code was invalid because only a county executive was permitted to propose a code. Order recognizing code as binding was improper.

Polk v. Greer, NO. 2006-CA-000340-MR, COURT OF APPEALS OF KENTUCKY, April 27, 2007, Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: A statement by appellee's counsel in the opening statement that the evidence would show that appellant was a "two time convicted persistent felon" was improper. Under Ky. R. Evid. 609(a), appellee could not inquire about the nature of appellant's criminal record on cross-examination, so the statement should not have been made in opening statement.

Radioshack Corp. v. Comsmart, Inc., NO. 2006-CA-000446-MR, COURT OF APPEALS OF KENTUCKY, April 27, 2007, Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: Because neither the parol evidence rule nor the parties' contract precluded a franchisee from presenting evidence on a fraudulent misrepresentation claim, and because the franchisor was not entitled to a directed verdict on the misrepresentation claim as it related to past events, judgment was properly entered for the franchisee and its president.

Rankin v. Coffman, NO. 2006-CA-001559-ME, COURT OF APPEALS OF KENTUCKY, April 27, 2007, Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: Modification of custody under Ky. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 403.350 was error based on father's allegations that, inter alia, mother's lifestyle was unstable due to remarriage, divorce, and interim dating, and that it was in children's best interest to modify custody. Father's vague and conclusory allegations did not justify finding of adequate cause.
