Attorney Grievance Commission v. Shuler

Mandamus—Public-records requests—S.Ct.Prac.R 12.06(B) did not permit untimely filing of additional evidence that respondent inadvertently failed to file—Public office's conclusory statements failed to prove that investigation report was subject to public-records exemption—Public office failed to submit evidence proving that security-video footage was subject to public-records exemption for infrastructure records—Records custodian improperly responded to public-records request by telling requestor to request record of grievance disposition from someone else—Inmate did not have cognizable claim in mandamus regarding information provided before mandamus complaint was filed—Inmate failed to prove by clear and convincing evidence that records custodian had received inmate's remaining public-records requests, and thus, there was no duty for custodian to respond—Writ granted in part and denied in part, inmate awarded $1,000 in statutory damages, and inmate's request for court costs denied.
