[edit] Governors e-mail privacy defended

"A newspaper's lawsuit seeking copies of e-mails between Nevada Gov. Jim Gibbons and 10 individuals should be rejected because the e-mails aren't public records or don't exist, the attorney general's office said Friday.

State attorney Jim Spencer, in a brief filed Friday in response to the Reno Gazette-Journal lawsuit, said Carson City District Judge Bill Maddox can privately review the e-mails on the governor's state account that do exist to verify their nonpublic status."
