Dear Mr. Arifaj:

Please accept this as my request for government records under both OPRA and the common law right of access. Thank you very much for your commitment to transparent government.

RECORDS REQUESTED:

1. Complaint, with all exhibits, filed in D.I. v. Middlesex Borough Board of Education, Federal Case No. 2:22-cv-01248-MCA-AME

2. Settlement Agreement or Release that resolved D.I. v. Middlesex Borough Board of Education, Federal Case No. 2:22-cv-01248-MCA-AME

Note that I am NOT required to fill out the district's form. See, the Government Records Council's Custodian Handbook on page 16: "In light of Renna v. Cnty. of Union 407 N.J. Super. 230 (App. Div. 2009), while it's preferred that OPRA requests utilize the agency’s designated OPRA form, rejection of a written request shouldn't be based only on the fact it's not on the specified form."

Dear Mr. Arifaj:

Since you don't mention how long you're going to be out of the office, I am withdrawing this request and will submit it, outside of OPRAMachine, to the district office.
