Bill Summary
An Act amending KRS 154.26-050, relating to personal liability of director or officer to insert gender-neutral language.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Kentucky Revised Statute (KRS) 154.26-050 by making the language gender-neutral when describing the personal liability of directors or officers of an unspecified authority. Specifically, the bill replaces the masculine pronoun "his" with the gender-inclusive phrase "his or her" when referring to the execution of obligations authorized by the authority. This change means that directors and officers will continue to be protected from personal liability when they execute officially authorized obligations, but the language now explicitly includes both male and female professionals. The modification is a minor linguistic update aimed at ensuring more inclusive and gender-neutral legal language, which reflects contemporary standards of writing official documents and statutes.
