Clarifying office of Prosecuting Attorney exemption from Freedom of Information Act

SB 980 clarifies that the Office of the Prosecuting Attorney in West Virginia is exempt from the state's Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). The bill amends the law to explicitly state that this office is not a "custodian of records," meaning records related to crime investigations held by prosecuting attorneys are not subject to public disclosure. This change directly affects prosecuting attorneys' offices by confirming that their internal case materials remain confidential under current law. The bill does not create new exemptions but provides clear language to prevent misinterpretation of existing rules.
