KRS 186A.250: Suspension or revocation of title -- Conditions and methods for action.

(1) The Department of Vehicle Regulation shall suspend or revoke a certificate of title,

after giving notice and providing a reasonable opportunity for the holder to be

heard, when authorized by any other provision of law, or, if it finds:

(a) The certificate of title was fraudulently procured or erroneously issued; or

(b) The vehicle has been scrapped, dismantled, or destroyed. Suspension or

revocation of a certificate of title does not, in itself, affect the validity of a

security interest noted on it.

(2) When the Department of Vehicle Regulation suspends or revokes a certificate of

title, the owner or person in possession of it shall, immediately upon receiving

notice of the suspension or revocation, mail or deliver the certificate to the

Department of Vehicle Regulation.

(3) The department shall promptly notify the Department of Kentucky State Police of

the suspension or revocation of any certificate of title.

(4) Any peace officer shall seize and impound any certificate of title which has been

suspended or revoked except when such document is in the custody of the

Department of Vehicle Regulation or the Department of Kentucky State Police.
