Tennessee’s Open Records Act ensures its people the ability to seek out, get, and use records kept by government bodies, including arrest records, court public records, marriage and divorce licenses, and records of traffic violations, and this privilege includes the people of Thompson's Station. These laws, or series of laws, provide Thompson's Station residents the ability to look for, record, and utilize this data, including details about those involved, when the event occured, the final results associated with a municipal action, and particulars on what transpired. These laws and regulations offer the people of America, and Thompson's Station, the power to study and realize their legal rights, the precedents that led to those rights, and whenever those rights are infringed on, which in turn results in a more free and transparent society for all.
