First of all, I am assuming he is in jail?

Second of all, it is inter-state compact, not inner state.

Third, why? So he can be near you? IF that is the sole reason, not very much luck it will happen.

Fourth, seems like he was already transferred TO Alabama, correct? I am assuming FROM Kentucky?  If so, many inter-state compacts limit the number of transfers or when they occur (between requests).

 

Has he spoken to his public defender? If not, he should. 

Interstate Compact for Adult Offender Supervision

This interstate compact regulates the movement and supervision between states of offenders currently under community supervision. It is designed to better ensure public safety and to create a more effective and efficient means of transferring and tracking offenders between states.

Member states: AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, FL, GA, HI, IA, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MD, MI, MN, MS, MT, ND, NM, NV, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, WA, WI, WY

 

I am unsure what the situation is for your boyfriend.  What was he convicted of and serving for? Does he have any priors? Will he qualify for parole or probation soon? 

Go to the Alabama Dept of Corrections and see if that can help you.  Here is the link: http://www.doc.state.al.us/
