Government Email: Public or Private Record?
This event qualifies for 1.5 CLE
Dirty laundry and county board meetings - what do these have in common? Both could be subject to the Freedom of Information Act.
Whether and when electronic communications such as emails, text messages, social media posts and tweets are subject to public records laws is a confusing and challenging question for public officials and journalists alike. This live webinar explains when such electronic communications must be disclosed and when they may remain confidential. The live webinar also discusses the pitfalls to be avoided by public bodies dealing with confidential communications, as well as by citizens seeking access to an open government. This live webinar discusses current trends nationally so that you can keep pace with this timely and dynamic topic. You also will learn the risks - and benefits - of litigating public records disputes, including the possibility of substantial attorneys' fees awards.
