Is My Personal Laptop Subject to FOIA?

"We're Glad You Asked That"

Q&A Video Clips

If I use my personal laptop to do work related to my official duties, is it possible my laptop could be subject to a FOIA request? Kyle O’Meara answers this question from the “Glad You Asked That” segment of the Michigan Township Association Conference.

At the MTA 2019 Conference, our attorney’s hosted our annual Question and Answer panel to address the questions you submitted. Our panel included Bill Fahey, Kyle O’Meara, Jacob Witte, and Matthew Kuschel, hosted by Christopher Patterson. Between them, this panel represents decades of experience in sectors ranging municipal law, public utilities, labor & employment, and more. Questions include everything from Medical Marihuana to land use permits. New clips will be shared monthly in our E-Newsletter.

Do you have more questions? Reach out to us. We’re always ready to help.
