More Violations at Louisville: Attorney General Says School Broke Open Records Law

The state attorney general has determined that the University of Louisville violated Kentucky’s open records law when it conducted an “inadequate” search for records related to its self-imposed postseason basketball ban.

Here are details from WDRB.com:

At issue is a request made by Dr. Peter Hasselbacher, founder and president of the Kentucky Health Policy Institute. He asked for the records Ramsey had “on hand” at the time of the ban’s announcement, but U of L denied the request and said those records didn’t exist.

Hasselbacher then appealed to the Attorney General’s Office. During that review, U of L acknowledged that the investigator it hired, former NCAA compliance official Chuck Smrt, has the investigative records.
