Missouri’s Sunshine Law Mo. Code §610.023 et seq. The Missouri Sunshine Law was introduced seven years after the Freedom of Information Act was passed in Congress in response to the Watergate scandal. In 1973, RSMO Chapter 610 was signed into the Missouri Constitution making the state one of the earliest advocates of the open records act. The law expressly stated that meetings, records, votes, actions, and deliberations of public governmental bodies are to be open to the public. Records are defined by Missouri law as "any record, whether written or electronically stored, retained by or of any public governmental body including any report, survey, memorandum, or other document or study prepared for the public governmental body by a consultant or other professional service paid for in whole or in part by public funds, including records created or maintained by private contractors under an agreement with a public governmental body or on behalf of a public governmental body.” Anyone can request documents and a statement of purpose is not required. There is nothing in the Missouri Sunshine Law that restricts the use of records and an individual should allow three business days for the return of records requests.' tags: - 'United States' images: - 'https://ice.giglio-bradylist.com/sites/default/files/2022-03/Missouri.png' - 'https://ice.giglio-bradylist.com/sites/default/files/media-icons/generic/generic.png' - 'https://ice.giglio-bradylist.com/sites/default/files/2022-03/Missouri%20Seal.png' files: - 'https://ice.giglio-bradylist.com/sites/default/files/2023-01/Invoice_10028_2023-01-31%20Missouri.pdf' - 'https://ice.giglio-bradylist.com/sites/default/files/2023-12/Invoice_10081_2024-01-31%20Missouri.pdf' - 'https://ice.giglio-bradylist.com/sites/default/files/2025-01/Missouri%20Invoice_10132_2025-01-31.pdf' published: true --- ## [Missouri ](/united-states/missouri) The Missouri Brady List includes all known issues of [police misconduct](https://giglio-bradylist.com/brady-offenses), [do not call](https://giglio-bradylist.com/do-not-call) status, [decertification](https://giglio-bradylist.com/decertification), [public complaints](https://giglio-bradylist.com/public-complaints), [use-of-force reports](https://giglio-bradylist.com/use-force-reports), and [citizen reports](https://giglio-bradylist.com/citizen-reports).
