Police video is public record under OPRA Paff v Ocean County Prosecutors Office
446
NJ Super. 163 (App. Div. 2016)
(MVRs) in police vehicles - which, in accordance with
the police chief’s written policy order,
are generated automatically whenever the
vehicle’s overhead lights are activated - are “government records” subject to disclosure under the Open
Public Records Act (OPRA), N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 to -13. Appellant Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office failed to carry its
statutory burden to show that the films fall within an exception under OPRA.
Judge Gilson dissents.
