The request was successful.

Dear Roselle Park Borough,

This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.
Records requested:

All records regarding the litigation and lawsuit between the City of Elizabeth and Roselle Park Borough regarding the latter’s unpermitted use of the combined sewer system of Elizabeth.

Andrew Casais, Roselle Park Borough

Good Afternoon S. E. Lin:
Please be advised that I am in receipt of your request.
However, please be further advised that your request is overly broad
and/or unclear, and I am not able to process said request. The term
"records" does not reasonably identify a specific government record.
Therefore, I am seeking clarification as to what records you are
requesting. Please identify specific records you are seeking access to,
and I will provide them as expeditiously as possible. 
Thank you,
