WI Court of Appeals – District II
Case Name: Bill Lueders v. Scott Krug
Case No.: 2018AP431
Officials: Reilly, P.J., Gundrum and Hagedorn, JJ.
Focus: Mandamus Relief – Open Records
Scott Krug appeals from an order granting mandamus relief to Bill Lueders and ordering Krug to produce “electronic copies” of records Lueders sought through an open records request. Krug rests his appeal on his reading of WIS. STAT. § 19.35(1)(b), which he claims requires him to provide Lueders with “nothing more” than “copies of records that [were] ‘substantially as readable’ as the original.” This argument calls upon us to interpret this statutory provision and apply it to the undisputed facts. We affirm.
