"(The motion) claims the sealing order should be vacated because it was entered without notice to the public and without an opportunity for a hearing, in violation of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the Georgia Constitution, and the rules of the court. The motion declares there is no question that autopsy reports are public records which have historically been open to the press and general public."
The state is arguing to keep the report sealed pending its investigation. The judge noted the case has now dragged on for more than a year.
Bobbi Kristina was found unresponsive in a bathtub Jan. 31 2015. She was hospitalized for months. Although rumors periodically cropped up suggesting she was showing signs of improvement she never regained consciousness.
She died at 22 July 26, 2015. Despite the show of unity among many family members, her funeral in Alpharetta became the site of a public family feud.
Bobbi Kristina was buried Aug. 3 next to her motherWhitney Houston'sgrave in New Jersey. It seemed she might never rest in peace, though.
