Libertarians for Transparent Government v. Cumberland County (084956) (Cumberland County & Statewide) (A-34-20; 084956)
Most personnel records are confidential under OPRA. But under the law’s plain language, certain items qualify as a government record including a person’s name, title, "date of separation and the reason therefor." N.J.S.A. 47:1A-10. To the extent that information appears in a settlement agreement, the record should be available to the public after appropriate redactions are made.
