David Belanger v. Middlesex South Registry of Deeds (SPR 20170161)

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records February 3,2017 SPR171161 David Belanger Dear Mr. Belanger: This office has received your February 1,201 7 emails appealing the lack of compliance of the Middlesex County Southern Registry of Deeds (Registry) to a records request. After reviewing this information I find that I am unable to accept your appeal.. The Public Records Access Regulations, which govern the procedural aspects of all appeals, provide records custodians with ten (10) business days in which a response to a public records request must be provided. See 950 C.M.R. 32.06 (2) (b); G.L. c. 66, 5 10(b). The 10- day time frame in which a custodian must respond has not yet elapsed. If after 10-business days have passed and the Town denies your request or fails to respond, you may appeal to this office. At that time this office will review the matter. Sincerely, u Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Estee Djeddah One Ashburton Place, Room 1719, Boston, Massachusetts 02108 (617) 727-2832. Fax: (617) 727-5914 sec.state.ma.us/pre pre@sec.state.ma.us
