Where this section sits in the code
  1. KRS Chapter 413

413.090 to 413.160.

(1) If, at the time any cause of action mentioned in KRS 413.090 to 413.160 accrues

against a resident of this state, he is absent from it, the period limited for the

commencement of the action against him shall be computed from the time of his

return to this state.

(2) When a cause of action mentioned in KRS 413.090 to 413.160 accrues against a

resident of this state, and he by absconding or concealing himself or by any other

indirect means obstructs the prosecution of the action, the time of the continuance

of the absence from the state or obstruction shall not be computed as any part of the

period within which the action shall be commenced. But this saving shall not

prevent the limitation from operating in favor of any other person not so acting,

whether he is a necessary party to the action or not.
