[edit] Judge rules in favor of WWL-TV in public records case against Nagin administration

"The city of New Orleans owes thousands of dollars in penalties to WWL-TV as a result of Mayor Ray Nagin's and City Attorney Penya Moses-Fields' "unreasonable and arbitrary refusal to respond" to the station's recent public-records requests, Civil District Court Judge Rose Ledet has ruled.

In a partial victory for the television station, Ledet also ordered the Nagin administration to provide WWL with an unredacted copy of the mayor's 2008 appointments calendar."
