What is the current state of the law regarding disclosure of personal information?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Eisenbud v. Suffolk County, 841 F.2d 42 (2nd Cir. 1988):

Our Circuit's answer to this question was given in Barry, which involved a New York City ("City") financial disclosure law similar to the one at issue here. We concluded that laws impinging on the plaintiffs' interests in nondisclosure should be subjected to an intermediate standard of review. 712 F.2d at 1559. We ruled that the law would not violate the plaintiffs' privacy interests if it sought to vindicate "a substantial government purpose," id. at 1560, and, in light of such a purpose, would not violate the plaintiffs' equal protection rights if it was so tailored as not to be " 'very wide of any reasonable mark,' " id. at 1564 (quoting Buckley v. Valeo, 424 U.S. 1, 83 n. 111, 96 S.Ct. 612, 665 n. 111, 46 L.Ed.2d 659 (1976) (per curiam)).
