Dear Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office,

I submitted an OPRA request to the MCPO on May 8. 2018, using the same exact language as my current request. In response to that request, the MCPO provided the requested records.

Given that my current request uses the same exact language, I'm unclear as to why it is being treated differently. For your reference, I have included a link to my May 8, 2018 OPRA request and the MCPO's response, which demonstrates the records that were provided at the time.

Dear Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office,

Please provide separate responses to each of my three OPRA requests. My understanding is that, under the current OPRA law, these are considered three separate requests rather than a single request. Accordingly, I ask that each request be processed and responded to individually.

Yours faithfully,

ASK NJ Media

Dear Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office,

As I did in 2018, I'm more than willing to grant the MCPO a reasonable extension to allow your agency additional time to obtain the documents responsive to my current OPRA request.

Yours faithfully,

Dear Melinda Harrigan,
