Governor Mary Fallin
March 17, 2014
OKLAHOMA CITY--The American Civil Liberties Union of Oklahoma Foundation filed a Motion for Summary Judgment and a supporting legal brief today in Oklahoma County District Court on behalf of Vandelay Entertainment, the publisher of the news and satire blog TheLostOgle.com, in its suit against Governor Mary Fallin. The suit seeks a court order compelling Governor Fallin to release 100 pages of public records she has refused to turn over regarding her decision to reject medicaid expansion.

The Motion and Brief are attached to this Advisory. The Brief presents arguments against the Governor’s assertion of “Executive Privilege” to deny citizens access to public records. A hearing on the Motion for Summary Judgment has been scheduled tentatively for April 25, at 10:00 AM, before Judge Barbara Swinton, pending the Judge’s approval.
