OAG 81-219 is cited in the decision to support the consistent position taken by the Attorney General's office regarding the interpretation of Section 99 of the Kentucky Constitution. It specifically addresses the question of whether the prohibition against an incumbent sheriff acting as a deputy in the succeeding term extends to a sheriff's 'assistant' who is not a deputy. The decision uses OAG 81-219 to clarify that the term 'assistant' must necessarily be interpreted as 'deputy' within the context of the constitutional and statutory framework.
