other factors, tends to affect in any way the outcome of a decision. It shall be

presumed there existed a "contributing factor" if the official taking the action

knew or had constructive knowledge of the disclosure and acted within a

disclosure was a factor in the personnel action.

(2) Notwithstanding the administrative remedies granted by KRS Chapters 16, 18A, 78,

90, 95, 156, and other chapters of the Kentucky Revised Statutes, employees

alleging a violation of KRS 61.102(1) or (2) may bring a civil action for appropriate

resides, or the county where the person against whom the civil complaint is filed

resides or has his principal place of business.

shall show by a preponderance of evidence that the disclosure was a contributing

factor in the personnel action. Once a prima facie case of reprisal has been

established and disclosure determined to be a contributing factor to the personnel

action, the burden of proof shall be on the agency to prove by clear and convincing

evidence that the disclosure was not a material fact in the personnel action.

(4) Any employee who testifies in an official proceeding shall be afforded the same

protections and rights as the employee who makes a disclosure as set forth in KRS

61.102.
