Deliberative Process Exemption

TBC Westlake Inc. v. Hamilton County Board of Revision is a 1998 ruling from the Ohio Supreme Court about interpreting the Ohio Open Records Law. The finding in the case is that the report of an attorney-examiner to a county Board of Tax Appeals is exempt from disclosure because a Board of Tax Appeals is a "quasi-judicial body" which is entitled to the deliberative privacy of the courts.
