2Opinion of the Court · GoldinArnold B. Goldin, J.
in which Kenny Armstrong, J., joined. Brandon O. Gibson, J., filed a separate concurring opinion.
The trial court ordered the Marshall County Sheriffs Office to produce the public records requested by Appellant but declined to award Appellant any attorneys’ fees. On appeal, we conclude that the trial court abused its discretion in declining to award attorneys’ fees. Accordingly, we reverse and remand the case to the trial court for the entry of an order awarding Appellant reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated § 10-7-505(g).
