In fact I’m representing a county right now in a goober lawsuit that they are trying to turn class action.
The claim in that one is that the county would send notifications for renewals by post card to permit holders thus violating their treasured confidentiality by statute which also contains a $1K liquidated damages provision for each disclosure. As this county is a proud member of the venison belt, there were literally thousands of postcards sent out during the releavant SOL period. Hence, the importance of class certification as well as whether the post cards constitute “public disclosure”. Case obviously brought by a gun lobby attorney.
