Currently a litigator in private practice, Carmine has served the public as counsel and director for executive and regulatory agencies in Kentucky. Most recently as Chief of Staff and as General Counsel to the Kentucky Attorney General, he provided comprehensive strategic, policy, political, and legal advice and counsel to the Attorney General and the office’s divisions on issues involving complex litigation, government law, ethics, and compliance.
He previously served as Executive Director of the Attorney General’s Office of Civil & Environmental Law, where he oversaw trial litigation throughout the Commonwealth as well as appeals under the Open Meetings and Open Records Acts, and Opinions of the Attorney General. In this role, he was chiefly responsible for defending state statutes challenged as unconstitutional and for the defense of executive and judicial branch officials. While at the Attorney General’s office, he authored an Opinion of the Attorney General which concluded that ESG investment practices are inconsistent with Kentucky law governing public pensions—the first such opinion in the country.
Before joining the Office of the Attorney General, Carmine served as Governor-appointed General Counsel of the Kentucky Public Protection Cabinet, where he was chief counsel to the Cabinet and its 12 agencies charged with regulating horse racing, financial institutions, insurance, alcoholic beverages, construction, professional licensing, and charitable gaming. While at the Cabinet, he litigated throughout state and federal court, including a case defending the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission’s declaration of the winner of the 145th running of the Kentucky Derby.
