First Amendment Challenge to Restriction on Public Access to Electronic Court Records Advances |
Ruling on several motions to dismiss on January 14, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia denied an effort to dismiss Courthouse News Service’s (CNS) First Amendment challenge to Virginia’s restrictions on public access to electronic court records. This clears the way for the lawsuit to proceed on the merits. Although this case specifically involves access to civil case court records filed in Virginia state courts of record, the broader underlying issue of public and commercial access to electronic court records is a significant issue, particularly for members of the consumer reporting industry who rely on remote access systems to prepare up-to-date and complete reports. |
