KRS 46.070: Proceedings against state debtors and delinquent officers collecting state

funds.

The Finance and Administration Cabinet shall report to the Attorney General all public

officers or public debtors who fail to render their accounts at the proper time, or to pay

the money in their hands due the state into the State Treasury, and shall cause actions to

be brought against them. If in any such action it is found that nothing is due the state, the

defendant shall nevertheless pay the costs.
