On Monday afternoon, Treasurer Allison Ball filed a motion designed to update the court on recent billing activities by the Kentucky Retirement systems. An area of great concern is the apparent duplication of actions by outside counsel for former KRS board member Tommy Elliot and the Office of Attorney General Andy Beshear. KRS is using retirement funds to pay for outside legal counsel, while Beshear is using taxpayer money to participate in litigation for the same case. Ball filed the motion to bring attention to the billing practices, as she says taxpayers and retirees are being billed twice for the same work on the same case. The case is scheduled for hearing on Thursday, November 17.
