FOI: advice?

[Daniel Haran]

Hi Folks,

My city has just responded to the FOI (Freedom of Information) review
judge's ruling, stating they disagreed. They do not give reasons, but
indicate I can pursue this to the Supreme Court. The letter is scanned
and linked from:
http://danieljohn.livejournal.com/66869.html

Unless a lawyer cares to take this on pro bono, I am considering
self-representation. Any advice? Is this an effective way to get
cities to release their data?

Thanks!

Daniel.
