Annotation for 914 S.W.2d 349

In construing the term “party” in KRS 61.878(1), the appellate court attached significance to the Legislature’s word choice, which was “party” not “person” and interpreted this to mean that a newspaper seeking to inspect records of a prison inmate was not a “party” in the litigation involving the inmate, thus KRS 61.878(1) was inapplicable, and the documents requested were open for inspection pursuant to this section. Department of Corrections v. Courier-Journal & Louisville Times, 914 S.W.2d 349, 1996 Ky. App. LEXIS 10 (Ky. Ct. App. 1996).
