> >The lawsuits generally ask judges to rule that the records being sought do not have to be divulged. They name the requesters as defendants but do not seek damage awards. Still, the recent trend has alarmed freedom-of-information advocates, who say it's becoming a new way for governments to hide information, delay disclosure and intimidate critics.

Yes, I'm familiar with declaratory judgment actions, thanks.
Getting named a defendant in a lawsuit is upsetting and stressful for people, even if there's no money judgmnent that can be had. The people still have to show up to court, hire an attorney, deal with months+ of court dates, discovery, depositions. It's abusive for governments to do this.

On what legal standing would such a suit be permitted to proceed beyond an initial hearing or two by a competent Judge?

On the basis that judges have no authority to dismiss lawsuits that are properly pleaded, bona fide legal disputes, until after the parties have had the opportunity to conduct discovery and present their evidence. Judges don't hold hearings over whether a lawsuit is mean or not and don't get to laugh anyone out of court because they're being poopyheads. Thanks.

The Trump government is suing babies. It's suing unborn babies too. That's why they're trying to stop abortions, they want to sue those babies.

If you made millions from being an actor, reporter, or politician, would you feel successful
because you worked hard or would you feel like a sell-out for being a Deep State puppet?
