Status: in_force

153.440 Levy of additional transient room tax by county containing city of the first

class or consolidated local government.

(1) As used in this section and KRS 153.450:

(a) "Person" has the same meaning as in KRS 91A.345; and

(b) "Rent" has the same meaning as in KRS 91A.345.

(2) In addition to the three percent (3%) transient room tax authorized by KRS

91A.390(1)(b), fiscal courts in counties containing cities of the first class or

consolidated local governments may levy an additional transient room tax not to

exceed one percent (1%) of the rent for every occupancy of a suite, room, rooms,

cabins, lodgings, campsites, or other accommodations charged by any hotel, motel,

inn, tourist camp, tourist cabins, campgrounds, recreational vehicle parks, or other

place in which accommodations are regularly furnished to transients for a

consideration or by any person that facilitates the rental of the accommodations by

brokering, coordinating, or in any other way arranging for the rental of the

accommodations for consideration.

(3) The tax imposed under this section shall not apply to rooms, lodgings, campsites, or

accommodations supplied for a continuous period of thirty (30) days or more to a

person.

KRS § 407.5611 — KY Code / Title XXXV / Chapter 407 / Section 407.5611
407.5611 Modification of child support order of another state
Status: in_force

407.5611 Modification of child support order of another state.

(1) If KRS 407.5613 does not apply, upon petition a tribunal of this state may modify a

child support order issued in another state which is registered in this state if, after

notice and hearing, the tribunal finds that:

(a) The following requirements are met:

1. Neither the child, nor the obligee who is an individual, nor the obligor

resides in the issuing state;

2. A petitioner who is a nonresident of this state seeks modification; and

3. The respondent is subject to the personal jurisdiction of the tribunal of

this state; or

(b) This state is the residence of the child, or a party who is an individual is

subject to the personal jurisdiction of the tribunal of this state, and all of the

parties who are individuals have filed consents in a record in the issuing

tribunal for a tribunal of this state to modify the support order and assume

continuing, exclusive jurisdiction.

(2) Modification of a registered child support order is subject to the same requirements,

procedures, and defenses that apply to the modification of an order issued by a

tribunal of this state and the order may be enforced and satisfied in the same

manner.

(3) A tribunal of this state may not modify any aspect of a child support order that may

not be modified under the law of the issuing state, including the duration of the

obligation of support. If two (2) or more tribunals have issued child support orders

for the same obligor and same child, the order that controls and shall be so

recognized under KRS 407.5207 establishes the aspects of the support order which

are nonmodifiable.

(4) In a proceeding to modify a child support order, the law of the state that is

determined to have issued the initial controlling order governs the duration of the

obligation of support. The obligor's fulfillment of the duty of support established by

that order precludes imposition of a further obligation of support by a tribunal of

this state.

(5) On the issuance of an order by a tribunal of this state modifying a child support

order issued in another state, the tribunal of this state becomes the tribunal having

continuing, exclusive jurisdiction.

(6) Notwithstanding subsections (1) to (5) of this section and KRS 407.5201(2), a

tribunal of this state retains jurisdiction to modify an order issued by a tribunal of

this state if:

(a) One (1) party resides in another state; and

(b) The other party resides outside the United States.

(8) Descriptive materials accompanying the object which explain or depict its use;
