Join us for a How to File an OPRA Request workshop led by CJ Griffin, one of the leading attorneys representing media companies, non profit organizations and citizens in Open Public Records Act (OPRA) litigations.
CJ will discuss how to use OPRA requests, draft valid requests, what some basic exemptions are, and how to monitor police departments.
Several of CJ’s cases have resulted in landmark decisions from the Supreme Court and Appellate Division, including North Jersey Media Group Inc. v. Township of Lyndhurst; Scheeler v. Atlantic County Joint Municipal Insurance Fund; and Wronko v. New Jersey Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. CJ publishes the Firm’s “New Jersey OPRA Blog” to keep the public informed about updates in the law and routinely hosts OPRA trainings for community organizations and news-rooms.
