Define That Term #295

By Nicole Black, Esq.

ADVERTISEMENTS

Dictionary_2_2 Last week's term was Sunshine laws, which is defined as:

Statutes that provide public access to governmental agency meetings and records.

Roy Mura of the Coverage Counsel blog sent me an email with this guess--and got it right!

Sunshine laws = Freedom of Information Laws or FOIL statutes that provide access to ?public records?, usually from municipal entities.  Like what the Buffalo News used to get the legal billings that formed the basis of this recent story: http://www.buffalonews.com/home/story/427211.html

 

This week's term is:

novation.

As always, educated guesses are welcome-dictionaries are not.
