Kentucky Supreme Court

Dillian Ford v. Commonwealth of Kentucky

February 20, 2025

Summary

The Kentucky Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals and vacated the jail‑fee portion of Dillian Ford’s sentence because the record contained no evidence that a county jail reimbursement policy had been adopted and approved as required by KRS 441.265(2)(a). The Court also held that the unpreserved argument concerning a 2022 statutory amendment could not be considered.
