- United States v. State of Georgia (N.D. Ga 2006)
On October 12, 2006, the United States filed a complaint against the State of Georgia to enforce the requirements of the Civil Rights Act of 1960, 42 U.S.C. ยง 1974, and simultaneously reached an agreement with Georgia officials with respect to production of voter registration data. The complaint alleged that Georgia had not provided its full statewide voter registration list to the United States, which it is required to do upon demand pursuant to Section 1974(b). The consent judgement and decree, approved by the court on October 27, 2006, required GA immediately to make available to the Department complete and current voter registration data.
