California Public Records Act
The California State Legislature
adopted the Public Records Act in 1975 and included all records of the state
and local agencies written on or after January 6 of that year. The Public
Records Act is designed to give the public access to information in possession
of public agencies. The Act also provides that public records shall be open for
inspection during regular office hours of the agency. The public can inspect
any record unless the record is exempted from disclosure under the Act, and the
agency bears the burden of justifying why the records cannot be disclosed and
is responsible for required redactions.
