Many Newspapers, like the Poughkeepsie Journal, often uses FOIL in its daily and investigative reporting.

Last June, the Journal submitted a request to the Poughkeepsie City School District, seeking records related to its former interim assistant superintendent of finance, Stanley Bronski. Bronski had been accused of meeting a prostitute at district offices, asking her to "service him" there, and refusing to pay her when she declined, according to Journal archives.

CITY SCHOOLS: DEAL WAS BEST MOVE AFTER PROSTITUTION SCANDAL

http://www.poughkeepsiejournal.com/story/news/2015/07/15/city-school-district-responds/30193793/

According to Bronski's settlement agreement and general release, dated June 24:

The district intended to seek Bronski's just cause termination.
Bronski agreed to resign on June 24.
Bronski remained on paid administrative leave until July 2.
Bronski was not allowed on school district property except with prior approval from Williams, who would arrange for him to be "escorted to collect his personal belongings."
The district agreed to expunge from his personnel file "any and all reports" relating to sexual allegations with a female adult.
Any records concerning the district's investigation "of allegations relating to sexual acts with another female adult" would be placed in a file marked "Stanley Bronski Legal Matter" and not disclosed to any third parties unless the district was required to do so by law.
Bronski waived any claims he might have or had against the district, including but not limited to any claims of age discrimination in employment.

He later apologized. “It blew a whole career,” the court insider said. When judges turn 70, they can apply for certification to stay on the bench.

Peter Mantius: Crestwood LPG won robo-approval - FOIL proves that there are no records showing that the Board of Regents has appointed a “state geologist” or “acting state geologist” since 2010

Gov. Andrew Cuomo should waste no time resolving the latest controversy over a Texas company’s application for a permit to store liquid petroleum gas, or LPG, in unlined salt caverns next to Seneca Lake. At issue is whether a specifically designated “state geologist” has a legal responsibility to conduct a rigorous analysis of such potentially dangerous activity or whether a simple undocumented sign-off by — well, anybody — will do. In its six-year bid to win that underground storage permit, Crestwood Equity Partners has made a practice of hiding documents, fudging facts and co-opting state regulators and local officials. Last week the company was called to task by the Seneca Lake Pure Waters Association for dodging a fundamental rule of the state Department of Environmental Conservation. The first sentence of the DEC’s “underground gas storage permitting process” states that such permits may only be granted with “approval in writing from the State Geologist.” SLPWA notes th
