KENTUCKY
RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE
RULE 22
INTERPLEADER
Persons having claims against the plaintiff may be joined as
defendants and required to interplead when their claims are such
that the plaintiff is or may be exposed to double or multiple
liability. It is not ground for objection to the joinder that the
claims of the several claimants or the titles on which their claims
depend do not have a common origin or are not identical but are
adverse to and independent of one another, or that the plaintiff
avers that he is not liable in whole or in part to any or all of the
claimants. A defendant exposed to similar liability may obtain such
interpleader by way of cross-claim or counterclaim. The provisions
of this section supplement and do not in any way limit the joinder
of parties permitted in Rule 20.
