‘Daily News’ asks judge to order town to release emails | www.palmbeachdailynews.com

There seems to be a "dust-up" between the Town of Palm Beach and the Shiny Sheet regarding a public records request. Here are some of the details. Click title for link to full article.
The motion, filed Friday by the newspaper’s attorney, Martin Reeder, asks Palm Beach Circuit Judge Meenu Sasser to order the town and Town Council President David Rosow to release the records within 72 hours, or to appear at a court hearing and show why they should not be required to do so.
The town and Rosow sued the Daily News and Sterling Palm Beach on Aug. 30 over a public records request to see email exchanges between Rosow and Sterling or between Rosow and the National Arts Institute relating to lease negotiations between Sterling and the National Arts Institute for the Royal Poinciana Playhouse.
