He sent 1100 pages requested and held back 300 due to claiming they fall under attorney client privilege

Of the 1,466 pages of emails, Lake Charles City Attorney David Morgan said 298 were not subject to public records law because they fell under attorney-client privilege.

Basically, yes. But the requestor can sue to determine if they are privileged or not.

Did he claim those 300 were all wedding talk? He will skate if so.

There is no longer any personal liability for the failure to turn over public records.

Thanks Jeff Landry.
