Getting Things Done -Public Access To Court Records

by Steven Brownstein

"You can't do that."
I still hear those words.
Since 1989.
"Can't do that. Not there. It's not public access."
I didn't heed those words.
Instead, I became a pioneer in public record access.
Today we all agree it is a matter of fact - "can do that."
Why?
Because I trusted my ability.
I believed in the system.
I knew it could be done.
Now public access is being taught in universities.
Why?
Because it can be done.
