Kentucky Revised Statutes Title XVII. Economic Security and Public Welfare § 202A.131.Right to be present

The respondent shall be present at all hearings unless the respondent and his attorney intelligently waive respondent's right to be present, or unless the court makes a specific finding after the respondent has been brought to the place of the hearing that the respondent should be removed from the hearing because his conduct is so disruptive that the proceedings cannot continue in any reasonable manner.
