Abstract

The article discusses a court case wherein a police incident at a dormitory in Michigan State University (MSU) led to a request for detailed information by the student-run periodical, "State News," invoking the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). In State News v. Mich. State Univ., the Michigan Court of Appeals reversed the trial court's determination that an MSU police report was exempt from disclosure under Michigan's FOIA. The court of appeals found the arguments of both parties to be weak.
