	Summary of the Missouri Sunshine Law
		Missouri’s commitment to openness in government is clearly stated in Section 610.011 of the Sunshine Law: “It is the public policy of this state that meetings, records, votes, actions, and deliberations of public governmental bodies be open to the public unless otherwise provided by law.
		The Sunshine Law governs the actions of public governmental bodies, which are defined as legislative, administrative or other governmental entities created by the constitution or statutes of this state, or by order or ordinance of any political subdivision or district as well as judicial entities when operating in an administrative capacity.
		The law now provides, however, that law enforcement records are subject to the same presumption of openness that applies to other public records (Section 610.011).

	NIXON V. SHRINK MISSOURI GOVERNMENT PAC
		In light of the importance of political speech to republican government, Missouri’s substantial restriction of speech warrants strict scrutiny, which requires that contribution limits be narrowly tailored to a compelling governmental interest.
		Missouri does assert that its contribution caps are aimed at preventing actual and apparent corruption.
		States are free to enact laws that directly punish those engaged in corruption and require the disclosure of large contributions, but they are not free to enact generalized laws that suppress a tremendous amount of protected speech along with the targeted corruption.

	Law.com - Government Probes Stoke Law Firms' Internal Investigations Practices
		Although the presence of an investigation team -- often dubbed "special counsel" -- can assuage a government agency targeting a company for malfeasance, concern is rising that, in placating zealous regulators and prosecutors, the attorneys are forced to roll over too easily, sometimes to their client's detriment.
		Despite concerns of government overreaching by corporate-investigation lawyers, demonstrating cooperation to the prosecution and at the same time zealously advocating for the corporation are not mutually exclusive, Hruska said.
		Appeasing the government and remaining a company's advocate means that not all lawyers are cut out for the job of corporate investigator.

		The government also renewed its attack on Newman's claim that she has standing to represent Padilla as his "next friend," arguing that she lacks the "significant relationship" needed to allow her to step in for an inaccessible detainee.
		The government then returned to the argument it unsuccessfully made after Mukasey agreed to reconsider his December ruling: that the interrogation of Padilla would be jeopardized if he is allowed to meet with defense counsel.
		Mukasey's December opinion instructed the government to allow Newman and Patel access to their client, but the government quickly concluded that there were no set of conditions that would make such access acceptable.

		The government should designate that all complaints are made to a single office, and lengthen all deadlines, and each type of complaint should have the same deadline scheme and procedural steps.
		The Missouri Government’s lawyers just love to get your complaints thrown out when they find a flaw in the timeliness of your complaint, or they find that you complained to the wrong office.
		If you are a government employee, at some point the government employer will try to argue it is immune from your type of case, under the guise of “soverign immunity”.

	JURIST - Paper Chase: Missouri voter ID law targeted by Democratic lawsuit
		Joe Shaulis at 4:49 PM ET [JURIST] Democratic Party officials in Missouri [JURIST news archive] filed a class-action lawsuit Monday seeking a permanent injunction against the enforcement of a new state law [SB 1014 summary; text] that requires voters to show photo identification at the polls [Missouri Dept. Revenue backgrounder].
		The law, signed by Gov. Matt Blunt [governor's press release] last month, allows voters who can't produce ID to cast provisional ballots that will be checked against signatures in election records.
		The plaintiffs argue that the law violates a provision of the Missouri Constitution [Article X Section 21 text] prohibiting the state government from passing on unfunded mandates to local governments and that it would disenfranchise some voters.
