Dear Plainfield City,
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 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:
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...)
My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. However, you may also direct me to the precise on your website where this is available.
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,
Charlie Kratovil
Hello Ms. Nieves,
I received your 3/12/25 note along with the note from Lt. Richards
referring to my request as a "repeat request" and indicating that it was
"turned over to Internal Affairs for processing." - I still have not
received any of the requested records. I am concerned because this is an
important request filed more than one month ago. Please advise when the
requested reports will be provided.
Thanks,
Charlie Kratovil
