Description
John B. Holmes, Jr., the Harris County District Attorney, filed this action in the trial court seeking a declaratory judgment that the Texas Open Records Act does not require a prosecutor to disclose "closed" criminal litigation files. The trial court found that the Open Records Act required disclosure, and the court of appeals affirmed. Holmes asserts that the Act categorically excepts his "closed" files from disclosure. We agree. We hold that section 552.108 of the Texas Government Code (The Open Records Act) excepts Holmes' "closed" files from disclosure. Accordingly, we reverse the court of appeals' judgment.
