Kentucky Ass'n of Chiropractors v. Jefferson County Medical Society
Kentucky Supreme Court
Decided April 1, 1977PublishedCited by 45 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
CLAYTON, Justice.
This is a consolidated appeal requiring that we determine whether chiropractors are included in the phrase “other person authorized by law” of KRS 333.150 and .160 so as to authorize them to submit specimens from the human body to state-licensed medical laboratories and to use the reports thereby obtained in diagnosing human ailments. After carefully considering the issue, we are of the opinion the General Assembly has not so empowered practitioners of chiropractic, and we therefore affirm the judgment of the circuit court.
This case arises from the following factual situation…
