Overview: Co-executor's Ky. R. Civ. P. 60.02 motion for relief from judgment was properly denied in case challenging decedent's signature on will codicil because co-executor could not have claimed with any credibility that new evidence was unknown before trial, or that she exercised due diligence.

Among other things, both prior custody orders were entered by Kentucky courts.

Overview: Since an injured person, who tripped over an exposed cable, claimed that he had the implied permission of the homeowners to be briefly on their property and the homeowners had never voiced their objection to the neighbors crossing onto their property, the injured person established facts which created a genuine issue as to his status as a licensee.

View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court properly held that federal bankruptcy exemptions incorporated into Ky. Rev. Stat.

Ann. § 625.090(1)(a)1. or (a)2., and there was no allegation of criminal charges under § 625.090(1)(a)3., the family court erred in finding that a child was abused or neglected and it abused its discretion in terminating a mother's parental rights.
