Teenager Wins Email Suit Against City of Kokomo

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the when-to-hold-and-when-to-fold dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Recently, a 16 year old sued the city of Kokomo, Indiana for access to an email list that he suspected the mayor was mis-using for political purposes. Despite the mayor's refusal to give in, the teenager won the case. The city will have to pay not only for the expensive attorneys they hired, but may have to compensate the 16 year old's pro-bono counsel."

    Guess it's all a matter of perspective.
