Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 26 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[a]n agency must be bound by the regulations it promulgates. Further, the regulations adopted by an agency have the force and effect of law. An agency’s interpretation of a regulation is valid, however, only if the interpretation complies with'the actual language of the regulation. KRS 13A.130 prohibits an administrative ‘body from modifying an administrative -regulation by internal policy or another form of action. (Internal citations omitted).”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“It is within the inherent power of a Court to give a decision prospective or retrospective application. It is further permissible to have a decision apply prospectively in order to avoid injustice or hardship. This is true where property rights are involved and parties have acted in reliance on the law as it existed, and a contrary result would be unconscionable.”
