Supreme Court lets open record verdict stand

The Texas Supreme Court refused to rethink a ruling on a Klein ISD records dispute. Robert Lett sought 64 documents about his daughter Crystal Lett and alleged racial bias at Doerre Intermediate School. The district argued the papers were working notes not open to public disclosure. The court’s unanimous decision left in place the Court of Appeals interpretation that working papers exemption applies only to public policy formation, a ruling the district said could affect government operations.
