This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.
Records requested:
1. A list of all lawsuits and cases in which any officer of the police department was involved between 2012 and 2019. For each lawsuit/case, please provide the date (month and year) of the alleged incident at issue, whether the alleged incident was excessive force, settlement amount (if any), and final compensation amount ruled (if any).

Taeho,
We do not have a way of searching for specific complaints so I can’t say
for certain what lawsuits there were in that time period involving the
police dept. I was able to find 2 complaints from our attorney which are
attached.
Have a nice weekend,
Lisa DiTaranto
Assistant to the Clerk
Deputy Registrar
