Florida 1st DCA Rejects DeSantis' Executive Privilege Push

A Florida appeals court has rejected Governor Ron DeSantis' push for executive privilege, which aimed to shield certain public records from disclosure. The court declined to endorse the executive privilege argument made by DeSantis and Attorney General Ashley Moody. The ruling from the 1st DCA stated that the decision to rule on executive privilege was 'irrelevant' and 'unnecessary.' This marks a significant decision as executive privilege had not been previously recognized under Florida state law. Judge Dempsey's decision was also noted in the ruling.
