A full inspection report of the New Jersey state prison.
Dear New Jersey Department of Corrections,
Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form or use a particular software platform to submit my request per NJSA 47:1A-6(f), which states that an email from a requestor including all of the information required on the adopted form shall suffice in place of a completed form as a valid government record request.
I HAVE NOT been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.
I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.
I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.
Records requested: a full inspection of the New Jersey state prison not just the West compound.
My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. Please confirm you have received this request. If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.
Yours faithfully,
Barbara Ann
Dear Barbara Ann,
This is not a request for records. Your request for a site cannot be
fulfilled under OPRA (NJSA 47:1A-1 et seq) and is denied.
You have a right to challenge the decision by the Department of
Corrections. At your option, you may either institute a proceeding in the
Superior Court of New Jersey or file a complaint in writing with the
Government Records Council (GRC). You may contact the GRC by toll-free
telephone at 866-850-0511, by mail at P.O. Box 819, Trenton, NJ 08625, by
e-mail at [1][email address] or at their web site at
[2]www.state.nj.us/grc. The Council can also answer other questions about
the law.
Thank you,
John Falvey
