I would be willing to bet the State Bar Association of Georgia is the real driving force behind this.
The greatest thing lawyers have is their knowledge of the law over that of the layman. They have their own legal data bases and software tools that allow them to search statutes, etc. for applicability to any number of inputs.
In the case here, a free public SEARCHABLE database is competition to the legal profession.
IOW, you can bet your ass lawyers are behind this.
I think the state official that filed this lawsuit should be personally liable for the court costs.
