Dear Haledon Borough,
You have not responded, and this request is now overdue. Please be advised that public disclosure of Internal Affairs reports is mandatory under the New Jersey Supreme Court unanimous opinion in the case "Richard Rivera v. Union County Prosecutor's Office", 249 A.3d 869, 250 N.J. 124, decided March 14, 2022.
Yours faithfully,
JerseyNoodge
The request was given to the Haledon Police Dept. and is under review by the Dept. An extension is needed.
Dear Allan Susen,
20 business days have now passed. When will you be providing the requested records? They should not be difficult to find since the Internal Affairs reports are filed year by year.
Yours sincerely,
JerseyNoodge
I will contact the Police Department where the records are maintained and inquire.
Dear Allan Susen,
What is your OPRA-2022-00nnn file number for this request?
Yours sincerely,
JerseyNoodge
