- “Since the benefit that a prisoner may receive under [KRS 197.045] is a matter of legislative grace, the General Assembly could impose such conditions as it deems best for society,”
- \[T]he privilege granted by [KRS 197.045] is not a vested right.... When Fowler claims the benefit provided by the statute he necessarily is bound by the condition which reserves to the Department the right to determine whether he was entitled to receive such benefit.\
