Ballot Design Case Expenses
Charlie Kratovil made this OPRA request to Burlington County as part of a batch sent to 19 authorities Automatic anti-spam measures are in place for this older request. Please let us know if a further response is expected or if you are having trouble responding.
Dear Burlington County,
This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access.
The records requested relate to two federal lawsuits concerning the design of New Jersey’s primary ballots: Conforti v. Hanlon, 3:20-cv-08267 (USDNJ) and Kim v. Hanlon, 3:24-cv-01098 (USDNJ) including its Third Circuit appeal (3d Cir, 24-1594).
Records requested:
1. Documents constituting or evidencing a list of all payments to outside counsel, legal consultants, and other expenses associated with these lawsuits since July 1, 2020. (Note: I am seeking payments related to the legal challenges described above. If you cannot sort in that manner, then I will take a list of all payments. This probably exists in a vendor history/activity report.)
2. Invoices for outside counsel, legal consultants, and other expenses associated with the lawsuits described above since July 1, 2020. (Note: Again, I am only seeking payments related to the legal challenges described above. If you can sort in that manner, then that is all that is needed. Otherwise, I request all invoices.)
Please produce the list of payments immediately. I understand the invoices may take longer, although they are also "immediate access" documents.
Yours faithfully,
Charlie Kratovil
