The case stems from a dispute between Vilas County District Attorney Albert Moustakis and the state Department of Justice. The Lakeland Times newspaper asked the DOJ in 2013 for records tied to an agency investi- ation into complaints a bout con- uct. ourt filings detail the allegations, although Moustakis has said they were leveled by apolitical rival and involve on-duty misconduct.

The DOJ has noted in court filings the investigation found the complaints were unsubstantiated, but Moustakis still filed a lawsuit in 2014 seeking to block disclosure. open records law allows public employees to sue to block disclosure of records pertaining to disciplinary proceedings, records ob- ained through search warrants or subpoenas and records prepared by employers who government agencies. The DOJ argued that the law clearly extend the right to sue to elected officials such as oustakis. Both a Lincoln County judge and a state appellate court agreed. oustakis argued that a state employee and MADISON- Wiscon- elected officials have the right to sue i therefore allowed to sue.

The court disagreed a nd sided with the lower ourts, saying a rgument creates confu- ion and fit with a ny reasonable reading of the open records law. attorney, Ben Krautkramer, said he read the decision and had no immediate comment. A DOJ spokesman said only that the agency was reviewing the ruling. ill Lueders, presi- ent of the Wisconsin reedom of Information ouncil, praised the ruling. He said the court recognized that the open records law clearly allow elected officials to sue to block disclosure.

Attorney Moustakis wasted a great deal of time and taxpayer dollars fighting to keep the public from obtaining records to which it is clearly Lueders said in an email to the Associated Press. Moustakis has amended his original lawsuit to add arguments that the DOJ properly apply the so-called balanc- i ng test a test of whether releasing records would hurt the public interest and allowing public employees to sue but not elected officials amounts to a violation of constitutional equal protection guarantees. he Supreme Court did not address those arguments, allowing Mous- takis to continue to pur- ue them in Lincoln Count Circuit Court.
