P1093 Records of disciplinary appeals by peace officers are personnel records, regardless of the fortuitous fact that the disciplinary appeal was heard by a body separate from the agency that employs the officers; statutory prohibitions against disclosure of peace officer personnel records apply to requests under the Public Records Act as well as to discovery in judicial proceedings.CitationCOPLEY PRESS v SUPERIOR COURT (Disciplinary Hearing) 39 C4 1272 [See: PenC 832.7, 832.8; GovC 6254; Copley Press v Superior Court (RevGrtd) 122 CA4 489, P/AT 11/04; Bradshaw v City 221 CA3 908; NY Times v Superior Court 52 CA4 97]
