Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Richard A. Carothers, Michael E. Hobbs, Thomas M. Mitchell, Carothers & Mitchell, Buford, for Appellant.

Daniel J. Porter, Dist. Atty., for Appellee.


BENHAM, Justice.

We granted an application for appellate review which contained the issue of whether documents and recorded testimony presented to a grand jury carrying out its statutory civil responsibility to inspect or investigate any county office or its operations are "court records" available for public inspection under Uniform Superior Court Rule (USCR) 21. We conclude that such material is not a "court record" and affirm the judgment of the trial court.
