Copyright © 2021 Albuquerque Journal
Albuquerque Public Schools has been ordered to pay more than $400,000 to two news organizations for failing to turn over public records in a timely manner and not adhering to deadlines in responding to requests for documents related to former Superintendent Winston Brooks’ departure.
The judge awarded the Journal $293,625 after finding the school district violated the state Inspection of Public Records Act in its handling of requests made by the newspaper in 2014. KOB-TV, which made similar requests, was awarded $118,000.

Judge Nancy Franchini also ruled that the Journal and KOB are entitled to costs and reasonable attorney fees.
APS said it will appeal.
