Carter v. Doe

MESSANO, P.J.A.D.,

concurring.

For the reasons compellingly presented by Judge Ostrer in Parts III and IV of his opinion, I agree that Carter was entitled to *272obtain copies of the relief payments made by the Association to John Doe under both OPRA and the common law right of access to public records. I further agree with the conclusions that OPRA “grants a right of action exclusively to requestors,” and that “the Legislature did not intend for records custodians to bring actions against record requestors to enforce their asserted right to withhold records.” Ante at 257, 258, 128 A.3d at 727, 728.
