Board moves into executive session to discuss pending litigation
Summary
The Letcher County Board voted May 18 to enter executive session under KRS 61.810 to discuss pending litigation identified as April Martin et al. v. Carbons Transport Inc. et al., Letcher Circuit Court Case No. 24CI0031.
The Letcher County Board of Education voted to enter executive session at the May 18 meeting to discuss pending litigation, citing Kentucky’s open‑meetings statute.
The chair asked for a motion to enter executive session under KRS 61.810 to discuss the case identified in the meeting agenda: April Martin et al. v. Carbons Transport Inc. et al., Letcher Circuit Court, Case No. 24CI0031. A board member seconded the motion and the board approved it by voice vote.
The board did not discuss the merits of the case in public; statutory citation and case identifiers were read into the record before the roll‑call vote to move into closed session. The board took the action in open session, then proceeded to the executive session as allowed by KRS 61.810.
