In this episode of Regulatory Oversight, Stephen Piepgrass is joined by his colleague David Dove to discuss a recent Georgia Supreme Court decision that significantly impacts private companies under Georgia's Open Records Act.

Stephen and David examine the Georgia Supreme Court ruling in Milliron vs. Antonakakis, which expands the scope of the Georgia Open Records Act to include private entities. They explore how this ruling affects business owners and contractors, emphasizing the need for compliance and the potential penalties for noncompliance. David offers practical advice for businesses, such as appointing a public records custodian, understanding document retention schedules, and training employees on compliance protocols. The conversation also touches on the broader implications of this ruling and the potential for future case law to further clarify the responsibilities of private entities under the Open Records Act.
