The Oregon Court of Appeals ruled for an animal rights group seeking public records, saying the cost must be reasonable and sending the case back to a lower court. In Defense of Animals asked for records of care of animals at a university primate center. Saying the request involved 6,000 animals over a period of years, the center said the pay in advance cost would be $151,000. (4/25/05)
