“Criminal Investigatory Records” are not “Government Records.”  

 

Furthermore, regarding “complaints” in your request, could you be more

Received. Thank you. The only complaints I could possibly give you are Municipal Ordinance complaints related to dogs barking (noise complainst) or dog(s) running at large. Any dog citations would have to be requested through the Wyckoff Municipal Court. Frauds, scams, lawsuits, we do not handle.

Dear Lt. Charles VanDyk,

Do you have this information available?
Also, is the Municipal court available via OPRA?

Yours sincerely,

Lt. Charles VanDyk,

I'm starting to compile the information you're requesting. I have 7 days counting today to respond to your request. Before release, the documents have to be reviewed and certain information redacted. I will speak with my court clerk tomorrow and let you know how to request the information you are seeking from the Municipal Court.
