Background
Welcome to the Kentucky Law Blog. This blog was first launched in October 2004 and restarted in May 2005. It's focus is Kentucky legal issues for lawyers.
It is the natural evolution of on-line efforts of LouisvilleLaw.com and the Louisville LawWire (now The Kentucky Lawyer). LouisvilleLaw was a web site which went on-line in 1999 to provide useful links to Kentucky law related web sites.
As time passed, we began posting notes and digests of published and nonpublished decisions of the Kentucky Court of Appeals and Supreme Court with eventual links to the full text decisions posted at the KyCourts.net web site hosted by the Administrative Office of the Courts.
This blog is not advertising, but rather is on-line legal journalism. Kentucky Law Net is the provider, and Michael Stevens is the Senior Editor. However, there are a host of other lawyers who volunteer their time digesting the appellate decisions. An email is currently sent summarizing and linking these decisions. We believe this blog is the natural progression of this development which will hopefully engender commentary and debate on the decisions and developments in Kentucky law.
This project would not succeed without the intellect, energy, and resolve of our volunteer lawyers - Patrick Bouldin, Scott Byrd, John Hamlett, Chris Harrell, Cherry Henault, Samuel Hinkle, Stephen Keller, Chad Kessinger, Michelle Eisenmenger Mapes, Peter Naake, Paul C. O'Bryan, Bryan Pierce, Alma Puissegur, Paul R. Schurman, and James Worthington.
The term "blog" is short for "web log" and the term "web log" means an on-line journal. This blog is an on-line journal about Kentucky law - appellate decisions of the Kentucky Supreme Court and Court of Appeals, changes in the statutes, and anything else of interest to Kentucky lawyers.
