California public records law applies to some private immigration detention operators, court rules - San Francisco Chronicle

A state appeals court increased public access Thursday to records of immigrant detention centers in California, requiring disclosure of information about operations at a federal lockup managed by a city's private subcontractor.

A 2018 state law allows members of the public to see records of facilities that hold immigrants awaiting deportation hearings “pursuant to a contract with a city.” That law must be interpreted broadly in favor of access under the voter-approved California Public Records Act, said the Fourth District Court of Appeal in San Diego.
