Can documents from the State Government, obtained through the State's FOIA, be used for commercial purposes?
Answers:
This question is far too vague to allow an answer. It would, quite obviously, depend on the type of document and exactly how it would be used commercially. It would also depend on what state you are referring to, and what the laws of that state are in regard to commerce.
Each state has various laws which, generally speaking, prohibit people from using state seals, coats of arms, etc for commercial promotions, or to use the name of the state or any state agency in any way that suggests the state has endorsed a product or service.
