Brett R. Carter v. Larry B. Martin, et al

Plaintiff filed a public records request for tax study documents. The request was denied, and Plaintiff filed a lawsuit for access to the records. The trial court denied access to the records, and Plaintiff appealed. This Court has determined that the plain language of Tenn. Code Ann. § 67-1-1701(6)’s definition of “tax administration” encompasses the documents in question and that Tenn. Code Ann. § 67-1-1702(a) makes “tax administration information” confidential. The trial court is affirmed.
