Kevin:
I am in receipt of your OPRA request dated January 28, 2025.  After
consulting with our attorney on this request, I am asking for an extension
of time to respond to allow time for necessary redactions of the documents
requested.  I anticipate I will be able to respond on or before February
18, 2025 regarding your request for "any documents in reference to an
investigation to tenure charges against Daniel T. Rodrick".
Regarding your request for "current employment status of Daniel T. Rodrick
as of 1/28/2025" - this is a request for information, not documents as
specified in OPRA law.

Dear Middletown School District,

Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA
and the common law right of access.  I am not required to fill out an
official form or use a particular software platform to submit my request
per NJSA 47:1A-6(f), which states that an email from a requestor
including all of the information required on the adopted form shall
suffice in place of a completed form as a valid government record
request.

I HAVE NOT been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of
New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.

I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial
purpose.

I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.

Records requested:
Any documents in reference to an investigation to Tenure charges against
Daniel T. Rodrick.
Current employment status of Daniel T. Rodrick as of 1/28/2025.

My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by
E-mail as attachments.  Please confirm you have received this request. 
If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to
that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.

Yours faithfully,

Kevin Geoghegan

After further review, I need to update my response to your request for 
"any documents in reference to an investigation to tenure charges against
Daniel T. Rodrick".  Please be more specific in your request.  "Any
documents" is a request for information and not a specific document
request.
