M.S.M. v. Dep't for Human Resources Commonwealth of Kentucky, 663 S.W.2d 752 (Ky. Ct. App. 1983). “In this case, KRS 199.617 provides for appeals in involuntary termination cases but does not mention an attorney fee as does KRS 199.”
Commonwealth v. Coleman, 699 S.W.2d 755 (Ky. Ct. App. 1985). “” As the statute providing for appeals in involuntary termination of parental rights actions, KRS 199.617, makes no mention of an attorney fee, the opinion concludes that the court had no authority to assess one against the state.”
