Summary of Original Version Create a new section of KRS Chapter 510 to provide for a permanent restraining order for victims of sex offenses with application thereof to proceed automatically upon a conviction or plea of guilty for a violation of KRS Chapter 510; establish that the court may grant the victim various forms of relief limiting contact between the defendant and the victim and the family and household members of the victim; provide that any such order be sufficiently limited to protect the victim but also protect a defendant’s right to work, receive an education, or do business with the employer of a victim; establish that a restraining order issued against a person under this provision is valid for a period of not more than 10 years, the specific duration of which will be determined by the court; establish that a violation of the restraining order is a Class A misdemeanor; require that a restraining order not prohibit contact by an attorney regarding a legal matter; establish that within 24 hours of entry of a restraining order or entry of an order rescinding a restraining order, the circuit clerk shall forward a copy of the order to the Law Information Network of Kentucky (LINK); require that the location of the victim be confidential; require that an order continue in effect following the termination of any terms or conditions of a defendant's suspension of sentence, probation supervision, home incarceration or any other post-conviction release of the defendant; establish that this provision does not preclude the filing of a criminal complaint for a criminal violation based on the same act as that which is the basis for the violation of the restraining order.
