OPINION

DIXON, Judge.

Appellant, Laurence Rider, appeals pro se from an order of the Knox Circuit Court denying his motion to amend his sentence under CR 60.02. Finding no error, we affirm.

In October 2009, Appellant entered a guilty plea in the Knox Circuit Court to first-degree sexual abuse and kidnapping. Pursuant to the plea agreement, Appellant was sentenced to a total of fifteen years' imprisonment and, upon release, would be required to register as a sex offender for a period of twenty years. Further, as required by KRS 532.043, the trial court imposed a five-year period of conditional discharge. Appellant subsequently filed two pro se motions for shock probation, both of which were denied.

On December 7, 2012, Appellant filed a pro se motion to amend his sentence pursuant to CR 60.02(e) and (f), arguing that the Supreme Court's declaration in Jones v. Commonwealth, 319 S.W.3d 295 (Ky. 2010) that KRS 532.043(5) was an unconstitutional violation of the separation of powers doctrine and the legislature's subsequent amendment of such statute constituted a change in circumstances warranting the amendment of his sentence.

On December 26, 2012, the trial court entered an order denying Appellant's motion, finding KRS 532.043(5) was not an ex post facto law and that it was the intent of the legislature that KRS 532.043, and its amendments apply retroactively. Appellant thereafter appealed to this Court as a matter of law.

On appeal, we review the denial of a CR 60.02 motion under an abuse of discretion standard. White v. Commonwealth, 32 S.W.3d 83, 86 (Ky.App. 2000); Brown v. Commonwealth, 932 S.W.2d 359, 361 (Ky. 1996). "The test for abuse of discretion is whether the trial judge's decision was arbitrary, unreasonable, unfair, or unsupported by sound legal principles." Commonwealth v. English, 993 S.W.2d 941, 945 (Ky. 1999). As such, we will affirm the trial court's decision unless there is a showing of some "flagrant miscarriage of justice." Gross v. Commonwealth, 648 S.W.2d 853, 858 (Ky. 1983).

The version of KRS 532.043(5) under which Appellant was sentenced provided:

However, in Jones v. Commonwealth, 319 S.W.3d 295 (Ky. 2010), the Kentucky Supreme Court held that KRS 532.043(5) violated the separation of powers doctrine by giving the judicial branch rather than the executive branch the power to revoke conditional discharge1 imposed after a period of incarceration:

Jones, 319 S.W.3d at 299-300 (footnote omitted). However, the Court specifically set forth that their "ruling [was] limited to KRS 532.043(5)[,]" and went on to opine that "[o]nly the revocation procedure established by this subsection is unconstitutional. Because subsection (5) is severable from the remainder of the statute, the statute's other provisions remain in force." Id. (footnote omitted).

Subsequently, in 2011 the legislature amended KRS 532.043 and placed revocation authority with the parole board:

KRS 532.043(5). We agree with the trial court that the amendment to KRS 532.043(5) is clearly not an ex post facto law as it does not "reach[ ] back in time to punish acts which occurred before enactment of the law." 16B Am.Jur.2d Constitutional Law § 690 (2013). See also Hyatt v. Commonwealth, 72 S.W.3d 566 (Ky. 2002), cert. denied, 538 U.S. 909, 123 S.Ct. 1481, 155 L.Ed.2d 230 (2003). The 2011 amendment to KRS 532.043(5) merely established a new procedure for adjudicating the revocation of conditional discharge. It did not create a new crime or enhance an existing crime, it did not in itself enhance the penalty for an existing crime, and it did not in any way alter the rules of evidence in regards to the offense charged.

Further, we find no merit in Appellant's claim that because KRS 532.043(5) does not expressly declare the statute's retroactivity, KRS 446.080(3) bars retroactive application to his sentence. The amendment to subsection (5) is nothing more than a procedural change in response to the Jones decision, reassigning the authority to revoke conditional discharge to the executive branch, or parole board, rather than the judiciary. See Rodgers v. Commonwealth, 285 S.W.3d 740, 741 (Ky. 2009)(Procedures "are to be retroactively applied . . . so that proceedings shall confirm, so far as practicable, to the laws in force at the time of such proceedings.") The Jones Court explicitly held that only the enforcement provision in subsection (5) was unconstitutional and the remainder of the statute remained in full effect. 319 S.W.3d at 300.

In Baker v. Fletcher, 204 S.W.3d 589, 597 (Ky. 2006), our Supreme Court explained, "Though it is clear that the General Assembly must expressly manifest its desire that a statute apply retroactively, magic words are not required. What is required is that the enactment make it apparent that retroactivity was the intended result." Clearly, in enacting KRS 532.043 and its subsequent amendments the legislature expressed its intent to impose additional supervision requirements on individuals convicted of certain felonies. For this Court to interpret KRS 532.043 as lacking an enforcement mechanism would be not only contrary to legislative intent but also to our Supreme Courts reading of KRS 532.043(1)-(4) and (6) in Jones.

As the trial court noted, we are not to interpret statutes in such a manner that deprives them of their intended effect either by the addition or omission of language. Commonwealth v. Harrelson, 14 S.W.3d 541 (Ky. 2000). We conclude that the trial court properly found that the 2011 version of KRS 532.043(5) is not an ex post facto law and it application herein does not warrant amendment of Appellant's sentence.

The order of the Knox Circuit Court denying Appellant's CR 60.02 motion is affirmed.
