The Utah State Records Committee has publicly admonished the Utah County Sheriff's Office after learning of the way it mishandled a request for public records from FOX 13 News.
A Utah judge ruled Tuesday that the state’s attorney general must release his schedule to KSL in response to an open records request. The victory for the news organization is the culmination of a public records fight that dragged on for more than a year as the attorney general’s office took KSL to court, fighting an earlier ruling to release Attorney General Sean Reyes’ schedule. Third District Judge Patrick Corum granted KSL’s motion for summary judgment, ordering the schedule be released before the case went to trial.
