Annotation for 354 S.W.3d 598

Nothing in the Kentucky Open Records Act conditions an individual’s right to obtain public records on his purpose in seeking those records; further, the propriety of assessing a penalty against non-compliant officials does not depend on whether harm befell the person who is denied records under KRS 61.882(5). Therefore, the fact that an inmate might not have been harmed by the failure to disclose jail records was irrelevant. Eplion v. Burchett, 354 S.W.3d 598, 2011 Ky. App. LEXIS 215 (Ky. Ct. App. 2011).
