The California Public Records Act or CPRA was signed in 1968. The CPRA  made governmental records available to the public upon request, except those records which have specific exemptions from being viewed by the general public. The exempt records include any that would violate another's privacy, or interfere in active investigations or pending litigation.

Most California public records in can be requested from the proper state or county office. The California Department of Justice defines "Records" as "include any writing owned, used or maintained by the Department in the conduct of its official business. Writings include information recorded or stored on paper, computers, email, or audio or visual tapes." 1

Local information on public records can be found on the county pages (under construction).
