All, Just got this petition from the friendliest reporter I’ve ever dealt with (sarcasm intended). They claim that our narratives are public records even though I’ve found no less then three cases that say that they’re work product. They’re trying to claim that police narratives are brief statements. Even though the ORA says that brief statements, if kept, are releasable. I told her and Denver Nicks all if this but apparently they want to waste their money, unless I’m totally misunderstanding clear case law. Any tips?

There is clear case law. I will handle this one in house.

Hi Mr. Andrew, As you likely know, Oklahoma Watch and myself through my capacity as a reporter, are suing Ponca City over the denial of the police summary in the incident report I requested last summer. We will be posting a story on our website and I wanted to extend an opportunity for you or the police department to respond to the lawsuit. I attached the filing. Thank you for your help. -- Whitney Bryen Multimedia journalist Oklahoma Watch Call or Text me: 405-201-6057 Follow me: Twitter<https://twitter.com/soonerreporter> | Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/Fontandframes/> Support our independent journalism by donating!<https://checkout.fundjournalism.org/memberform?org_id=oklahomawatch&campaign=7011Q0000017KY1QAM&utm_source=Newsletter+Subscribers&utm_campaign=f98086626e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2020_11_13_07_15&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_a3f6ea538a-f98086626e-101043190&mc_cid=f98086626e&mc_eid=3d0d4ac686> Our work <https://oklahomawatch.org/> | Our mission<https://oklahomawatch.org/about/> | Tell us your story<mailto:tipline@oklahomawatch.org> Where we share: Twitter<http://www.twitter.com/oklahomawatch> | Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/OklahomaWatch/> | Instagram<https://www.instagram.com/oklahoma_watch/> | Youtube<https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOjMiszUrXt3-kSU8tGzAxw> [https://ci3.googleusercontent.com/mail-sig/AIorK4xwGt_BU2VIOKL5z0-ybDIi3tXCkJMENmAv3m9IXooN1Z_sEkAms5jMlwsnYSN7IxXBZkHV948]
