Dear Ewing Township,
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-5(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 WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.
I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.
Records requested:
All police misconduct information required to be published for the reporting year 2024 pursuant to the Internal Affairs Policies & Procedures Section 9.11 (available here: https://www.nj.gov/oag/dcj/agguide/direc...)
