ASNE was one of 13 organizations that joined an amicus brief filed with the California Supreme Court in a case involving access to information collected via automatic license plate readers (ALPR) in Los Angeles County. The brief, drafted by the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, does not address the privacy and surveillance issues surrounding the use of ALPRs; it simply argues that the California Supreme Court should overturn the decision of an intermediate Court of Appeals that the law enforcement exemption to the state's Public Records Act can be used to withhold all data collected by ALPRs.
