CJA eVoucher AI Billing Tool
for E.D. Ky. Panel Attorneys

The United States District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky covers the eastern half of the state and holds court in five cities — Lexington (the primary courthouse and the district's largest city), London, Pikeville, Covington, and Frankfort. E.D. Ky. sits within the Sixth Circuit and serves a region spanning the horse farms and Bluegrass country around Lexington, the Daniel Boone National Forest, the Northern Kentucky suburbs of Cincinnati across the Ohio River at Covington, and the Appalachian coal country of eastern Kentucky along the Virginia border.

The district's federal criminal docket is among the most opioid-affected in the country. Eastern Kentucky was ground zero for the prescription opioid epidemic, and the district has generated a sustained volume of pill mill prosecutions, oxycodone distribution conspiracies, heroin cases, and fentanyl trafficking matters that continues into the present. The Pikeville and London divisions, which cover the coal counties of southeastern Kentucky, are particularly caseload-heavy with drug matters. The district also handles firearms offenses, financial fraud, and public corruption. CJA panel attorneys in E.D. Ky. often travel significant distances between the district's five divisions, through mountainous terrain.
