The City has reviewed your request and has determined that the records
requested are criminal investigatory records that are exempt from
disclosure. N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1.1 specifically states that "a government
record shall not include the following information which is deemed to be
confidential for the purposes of P.L.1963, c.73 (C.47:1A-1 et seq.) as
amended and supplemented: [...] criminal investigatory records." N.J.S.A.
47:1A-1.1 defines a criminal investigatory record as "a record which is
not required by law to be made, maintained or kept on file that is held by
a law enforcement agency which pertains to any criminal investigation or
related civil enforcement proceeding.”
In view of the foregoing your request is now complete. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Hjordys Espinal
Office of City Clerk
