"Under Maryland law, all government e-mails are considered public documents, open to being viewed by the public, so long as they don’t contain sensitive personnel information or refer to ongoing legal actions or land transactions. Governments are obligated to provide copies of public communications if requested under the federal Freedom of Information Act.
