Chronicle of Higher Education, Peter Schmidt: “The New Jersey State Supreme Court has held that the state’s open-records law does not require a Rutgers University legal clinic to relinquish client files, handing a major victory to higher-education associations, which warned that an inability to maintain attorney-client privilege would badly damage the nation’s public law schools. Overturning a state appeals-court decision against the public law clinic, the State Supreme Court unanimously ruled Thursday that the state’s open-records act does not cover documents related to such clinics’ efforts to represent clients.”
