Ohio Supreme Court further whittles public records laws
The Ohio Supreme Court, which is Republican-dominated, halted discovery proceedings in a case requiring public records and a deposition of former Ohio Attorney General David Yost. The decision is criticized as undermining Ohio's public records laws, which were historically bipartisan, and enabling secrecy in government aligned with MAGA Republicanism.
