An inmate was properly denied the discretionary fine provided for in the statute in connection with the Department of Correction’s denial of access to records of a disciplinary proceeding against him where there was no proof that the department’s actions were wilful or that the failure damaged the inmate in any way, and it appeared that the department merely made a good faith denial of records. Blair v. Hendricks, 30 S.W.3d 802, 2000 Ky. App. LEXIS 69 (Ky. Ct. App. 2000), overruled in part, Lang v. Sapp, 71 S.W.3d 133, 2002 Ky. App. LEXIS 452 (Ky. Ct. App. 2002).
