The Township of Lakewood received your Open Public Records Act (OPRA)

respond to your request is 3/26/2026.  This response to your request is
being provided to you on the 4th business day after the custodian's

Your OPRA request sought access to the following:

Disputes made by or to Adalina Morales Gonzalez from the years 2006-2020

Currently, your request fails to identify with reasonable clarity the
specific government records sought, as is required by Bent v. Stafford
Police Department, 381 N.J.Super. 30, 37 (App. Div.  2005). We are unsure
as to what record you are referring to as a "dispute". At this time, we
request clarification of your OPRA request.  Please respond in writing and
identify the specific government records sought so that we may process
your request.

If your request for access to a government record has been denied or
unfilled within the seven (7) business days required by law, you have a
right to challenge the decision by the Township of Lakewood to deny
access. At your option, you may either institute a proceeding in the
Superior Court of New Jersey or file a complaint with the Government
Records Council (GRC) by completing the Denial of Access Complaint Form.
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 [email address], or at
their web site at www.state.nj.us/grc. The GRC can also answer other
questions about the law. All questions regarding complaints filed in
Superior Court should be directed to the Court Clerk in your County.

 
Please note, if a response is not received within 7 business days, your
request will be closed.
 
Thank you,
