Dear Town of Phillipsburg,

This public records request is made under the Open Public Records Act (O.P.R.A.) and the common law right of access (I am not required to complete an official form). The scope of this request complies with N.J.S.A. 10:4-6, et seq. It, therefore, falls outside any exemption provided therein (P.L.1963, c.73 (C.47:1A-1 et seq.)). In addition to O.P.R.A., N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 provides an independent means for citizens to access public information. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.

Records requested:

For the entire retention period applicable to the requested public records, please provide all public and training records/documents, including applications with the supporting documentation (submitted by the applicant or on behalf of the applicant) for any training, certifications, and licenses issued or denied for Patrolman SCOTT PALMER (#340) of the Phillipsburg Police Department.

Please provide all responses via electronic files and this website (OPRAMachine.com).

Yours faithfully,
William Sosis

Dear Town of Phillipsburg,
I have not received an acknowledgment to this request. As such, please note that the responsive records to this request are due no later than 03/12/2024. In addition, there is final case disposition hearing scheduled before Judge Matthew Curry on 03/15/2024 that is related to this records request. Your timely attention to this request is appreciated.
Yours faithfully,

Dear Susan Turner,
The records are due today, March 12, 2024. Requesting an extension on the day public records are due is considered a denial.
Please provide the requested records no later than March 15, 2024.
Yours sincerely,
WS

It seems incredible that it takes two weeks, three days, and an attorney to review and provide two pages.
Why did you "request" an additional five days on 3/12/2024? Are two pages the only responsive records on Patrolman Scott Palmer?
