This lawsuit was filed on behalf of two journalists who were denied access to arrest records by the Brown University Department of Public Safety. The lawsuit contests the Brown University police department’s position that it is not subject to the state’s Access to Public Records Act (APRA) and can keep its arrest reports secret from the public.
