"Don't be ridiculous they of course did not ask for documents they themselves sent (which are specifically marked maintain confidentiality) and documents they already have (the plea offers) to be sent to newspapers. (which are not supposed to be made public)"

Rush and Black didn't ask for anything to be released - Landmark Legal did it all on their own -

... and threatened legal action 2 days later

Marking it "Confidential" means nothing to the Florida Sunshine Laws.

Citing laws against using it as evidence means nothing also...

Florida law REQUIRED their release to anyone who asked.

---Florida law REQUIRED their release to anyone who asked.---

Even though its an ethics violation to do so? *BUZZ* not

Landmark didn't ask for confidential plea agreements to be sent to newspapers.

Thank you for (indirectly) answering one of my questions: was Landmark retained by RL or are they just a 3rd-party?.
