Gray v. Kenton County, 467 S.W.3d 801 (KY 2014)

Three employees of the Kenton County Clerk’s office brought claims of sexual harassment in violation of the Kentucky Civil Rights Act against the Chief Deputy. The Chief Deputy had made several inappropriate comments to each employee over the course of their employment. The Kenton County Circuit Court granted summary judgment in favor of the county, holding that even though the deputy had made inappropriate comments, his comments were neither severe nor pervasive enough to constitute a hostile work environment. The Kentucky Court of Appeals affirmed.
