Court of Appeals of Kentucky.

August 5, 1983.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Linda G. Cooper, David A. Sexton, Barbara W. Jones, Corrections Cabinet, Frankfort, for appellants.

W. Waverly Townes, Nold, Mosley, Clare, Hubbard & Townes, Louisville, for appellees.

Before COOPER, DUNN and HOWERTON, JJ.

HOWERTON, Judge.

This appeal is from an order of the Franklin Circuit Court dissolving a restraining order and dismissing the appellants' action for a declaratory judgment. The ground for dismissal was a lack of venue. The appellants argue that venue lies in the Franklin Circuit Court because the operative facts which prompted them to institute a judicial proceeding occurred in Franklin County.
