IndyStar sues Attorney General Curtis Hill's office for email records
The Indianapolis Star has filed a lawsuit in its efforts to obtain the personal email of Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill and his top deputy when they conduct government business through those accounts.The lawsuit by IndyStar and reporter Ryan Martin in Marion Superior Court names the attorney general’s office as defendant and seeks the email addresses of Hill and Chief Deputy Aaron Negangard.
The complaint says that because Hill and Negangard conduct government affairs through their personal email accounts, the email must be released under the state’s open records law, known as the Access to Public Records Act.

The attorney general's office has so far refused to reveal the officials' email addresses.
