We've blogged at length about HB 2094 and the reintroduction of the Structural Work Act.  The action deadline for the bill has been extended to May 9.  It is likely, now that the fervor has died down that the bill is being held as a playing chip between differing factions in the House for getting some other legislation passed.

    For anyone practicing law in today's information age, the constant fees and assessments put forth by different counties for access to recorded documents, court filings, or any other public record is well known.  In fact, the charges for information can sometimes be exorbitant if someone is getting involved in multi-party litigation.
