A Note on Public Records Law

Public records are documents and information that government agencies are required by law to make available to the public. The legal framework governing public records access varies by jurisdiction and is shaped by legislation such as:

The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) at the federal level
Individual state open records laws (often called Sunshine Laws or Public Records Acts)
County and municipal regulations that may further define access and exemptions
