Supreme Court of Georgia

Milliron v. Antonakakis

August 13, 2024319 Ga. 616

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia held that the Open Records Act applies to records held by a private contractor who also works as an employee of a public agency, and that a request for such records may be served directly on the contractor as custodian, even when the agency has designated an open‑records officer. Accordingly, the Court reversed the Court of Appeals’ affirmation of the trial court’s dismissal and remanded for further proceedings.
