A freedom of information organization has sued Ventura County to obtain public records on COVID-19 related deaths and virus outbreaks at workplaces.
In a 10-page lawsuit filed Thursday in Ventura County Superior Court, the First Amendment Coalition asked for a court order compelling the county government to release records requested in January and March. The coalition says the records must be disclosed under the California Public Records Act, a long-standing law governing records of public agencies.
