Prater: Board Violated Open Meetings Act

Oklahoma County District Attorney David Prater said today that the Oklahoma City Board of Education's Monday meeting in which Superintendent John Porter was suspended violated the state's Open Meetings Act, but he does not plan to file criminal charges. It is unclear whether notes from the executive session in which the board discussed Porter's fate will be released, although Prater previously has said the notes would be made public should the meeting be deemed illegal.

The board meets at 3 p.m. today to again take up Porter's suspension.
