Supreme Court of Georgia

Undisclosed LLC v. the State

October 30, 2017

Summary

The court held that Uniform Superior Court Rule 21's right of public inspection includes the right to copy court records. It further held that, under the common-law and statutory context preserved by Rule 21, a court record must be filed with the court, so unfiled court-reporter audio recordings are not court records when a transcript of the proceedings has been filed. The trial court's order was affirmed on that latter ground.
