Case Details
Montana Eighth Judicial District Court ruled in favor of public access to legislative records ('junque files'), striking down a policy that restricted access and affirming the Montana Constitution’s right to examine public documents.
Additional Notes
Court granted preliminary injunction and writ of mandamus, ordering immediate production of unredacted files and halting enforcement of the restrictive redaction policy. Emphasized that legislative privilege cannot obscure the role of lobbyists.
