NRA Could Obtain Internal State Documents in Lawsuit Against Cuomo, DFS After US Judge's Review
A series of documents that state officials from New York have wanted to withhold from the National Rifle Association in its lawsuit against Gov. Andrew Cuomo and a state agency will be reviewed by a federal judge in the coming weeks and could ultimately be disclosed to the gun lobby group.

A federal judge in Albany ordered attorneys for the state, in a new decision, to submit those documents to him for review, along with a detailed log on why they should remain privileged.

"For months, Gov. Cuomo and DFS have tried to conceal from the public, and the court, documents demonstrating the state’s internal rationale for its blacklisting campaign against the NRA,” Brewer said. “The NRA will aggressively pursue all the facts and press every advantage in this important advocacy.”

Hopefully, Gov. Cuomo will have to write some checks like Rahm Emanuel had to for Chicago.

Yeah, I can imagine that Cuomo and company would rather not release documents that reveal their true attitudes towards the citizenry, such as government officials referring to the public as "drooling imbeciles" and "peasants".
