OAG 84-55 is cited in the decision to support the conclusion that the Commonwealth of Kentucky is constitutionally prohibited from entering into indemnity agreements that would obligate the state to cover third-party asbestos-related claims. The decision references OAG 84-55 to affirm the reasoning that such indemnification is prohibited by Sections 50, 171, and 177 of the Kentucky Constitution, as previously concluded in OAG 84-55 regarding a similar issue of state indemnification.
OAG 84-55 was Followed by OAG 86-18
