A coalition led by RCFP, PNA raises concerns about restrictions on public access to criminal court records in several counties.

RCFP attorneys helped the paper reach a settlement requiring Lancaster Township to train employees on the Right to Know Law.

RCFP attorneys are representing five news organizations in their federal civil rights lawsuit against the York County Clerk of Courts.

“The first two years of the Local Legal Initiative have been a huge success.”

“You don’t have to just accept what an agency says. ... You can reach out to the Reporters Committee.”

RCFP attorneys represented LNP Media Group in its lawsuit seeking records under the state’s Right to Know Law.

Forbes and one of its reporters are petitioning federal courts in California, Pennsylvania and Washington to release the orders.

RCFP attorneys hope that successful public records lawsuits could help shape the state’s law in favor of greater transparency.

Journalists and the public shouldn’t have to guess at what is happening with legal challenges related to the election.

The hotline will be staffed by RCFP attorneys in Washington, D.C., and 12 battleground states until polls close.
