The Office of the Attorney General issued one decision in Open Records/Open Meetings cases last week. Here is the summary:

1. 20-ORD-009 (Franklin County)

Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives ("KDLA") violated KRS 61.880(1) by failing to respond to an open records request, but met its burden of proof on appeal and justified withholding records belonging to the Kentucky Court of Justice (KCOJ") because these records are not subject to the provisions of the Open Records Act ("the Act"), per Ex Parte Farley, 570 S.W.2d 617 (Ky. 1978), KRS 26A.200, and KRS 26A.220.
