Thereafter, he filed this action on behalf of himself, and others similarly situated, against, inter alia, Bass River and all municipalities similarly situated, alleging that they improperly charged fees in excess of the Open Public Records Act, the Right to Know Law, and the common-law right-to-know doctrine for written discovery in their municipal courts.
