• In the county where the respondent or ward resides;
• In the county of domicile of respondent or ward;
• In the county where parent of respondent or ward who is a minor is domiciled. KRS

NOTE: If no local conservator has been appointed and no petition in a disability
proceeding is pending in this state, a domiciliary foreign conservator may file with a court
in this state in a county in which property belonging to the disabled person is located,
authenticated copies of the appointment and of any official bond given. The conservator
may then exercise as to assets in this state all powers of a local conservator and may
maintain actions and proceedings in this state subject to any conditions imposed on non-
resident parties generally. KRS 387.520(3).
