OAG 01-006 is cited in the decision to clarify and correct the misinterpretation by the Taylor County Board of Education regarding the disclosure of sealed settlement agreements. The decision emphasizes that OAG 01-006 did not conclude that sealed settlement agreements are exempt from disclosure under the Open Records Act, but rather that such agreements are public records unless exempted by specific exceptions. The decision disagrees with the Board's interpretation and asserts that the burden of proving an exemption lies with the public agency or affected party.
