Dear OPRA Custodian,
Per Paff vs. Township of Galloway (2017) this is a valid request.
You fulfilled a request for similar information on Dec 21, 2023 seeking all email header information for domain wwrsd.org for the month of March 2023. My request uses precisely the same language as the December 21, 2023 request you fulfilled without extended parameters, only for June in lieu of March. You have already denied my prior request that contained specific recipients/senders and/or the sought content, and did so specifically for those reasons, claiming you do not maintain records searchable by those parameters.
Unless you can provide a legitimate reason as to why you are applying disparate standards to the Dec 21, 2023 request and my request, I will have to consider your response an unlawful denial and address the matter to the Government Records Council.
Yours sincerely,
Chris Dalzell
Mr. Dalzell,
Attached please find records responsive to the above referenced request.
The records have been redacted to protect reasonable expectations of
privacy relative to personal information, including personal email
addresses, pursuant to NJSA 47:1A-1 et seq.
A receipt indicating same and that your request has been closed, is also
attached.
