Freedom of Information Law (FOIL), Municipal Law

THE FOIL REQUEST FOR THE NUMBER AND LOCATION OF LICENSE PLATE READERS (LPR’S) SHOULD HAVE BEEN GRANTED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, over a dissent, determined the FOIL request for the location of license plate readers (LPR’s) should have been granted. The majority decision and the dissent include comprehensive discussions of the relevant caselaw which are far too extensive to fairly summarize here:

In light of the presumption of accessability and the narrow interpretation we are required to apply to a claimed exemption, under the circumstances of this case, we find that the respondents failed to sustain their burden of proving that the law enforcement records exemption pursuant to Public Officers Law § 87(2)(e)(iv) applied to the records pertaining to the number and location of the LPRs sought by the petitioner’s request … . Matter of Lane v Port Wash. Police Dist., 2023 NY Slip Op 05605, Second Dept 11-8-23

Practice Point: Here the majority’s and dissent’s discussion of FOIL request for the number and location of license plate readers (LPR’s), which the majority held should have been granted, includes a comprehensive discussion of the relevant caselaw.
