Dear New Jersey State Police,

Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form or use a particular software platform to submit my request per NJSA 47:1A-6(f), which states that an email from a requestor including all of the information required on the adopted form shall suffice in place of a completed form as a valid government record request.

I HAVE NOT been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.

I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.

I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.

Records requested:

1. Count of all current and in-progress applications in process with Highland Park Police Department ("HPPD"), for Firearms Purchaser I.D. Card; Handgun Purchase Permit; and
Concealed Carry Permit.

2. Total count of all applications for Firearms Purchaser I.D. Card;
Handgun Purchase Permits; and Concealed Carry Permit approved and denied
by HPPD for (a) 2024 to date; (b) 2023; and (c) 2022.

PLEASE NOTE: This OPRA request was initially directed to Highland Park Borough, who referred me to you as the custodian of the database with this information.

My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. Please confirm you have received this request. If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.

Yours faithfully,

Rutgers alumx

Dear NJSP OPRA,
